The busy dad believes in manifesting his goals - and he managed to dream up a giant brood
I Always Knew I'd Have 12 Kids!

Nick Cannon is a big believer in the power of manifestation. “You speak things into existence,” says the 44-year-old. “I always said I wanted 12 kids, and here we are!” The actor and host of VH1’s long-running improv series, Wild ’n Out, is dad to Moroccan and Monroe, 13, with ex-wife Mariah Carey; sons Golden, 7, and Rise, 2, and daughter Powerful, 3, with Brittany Bell; twin boys Zion and Zillion, 3, and daughter Beautiful, 23 months, with Abby De La Rosa; son Legendary, 2, with Bre Tiesi; and daughter Onyx, 2, with LaNisha Cole. He’s also father to daughter Halo, 23 months, and son Zen (who died at 5 months old in December 2021 after being diagnosed with brain cancer) with Alyssa Scott. Here, Nick talks to In Touch’s Lindsay Hoffman about fatherhood, his love life and his go-to karaoke song.

Do you think you manifested your huge family?
