Nick Cannon Responds To The Tag Of ‘Deadbeat Dad’
Nick Cannon has been referred to as a ‘deadbeat dad’ by many people who claim he is trying to start a cult. However, while speaking to The Los Angeles Times on May 7, 2023, he responded to the same, saying that he has been “villainized.”
He added, “I hear all the time: ‘You can’t be present for all those children.’ So, therefore, I get this deadbeat dad title.” Cannon stated that although he has been in a relationship several times in the past, he does not believe in monogamy.
Cannon revealed that he earns $100 million a year and this has been the result of him participating in shows like ‘The Masked Singer‘, ‘Beat Shazam‘, ‘Celebrity Prank Wars‘, and more. He has been working in various other shows and speaking of spending time with his children, he said: “If you feel loved when you see your dad, that’s what’s gonna resonate.”
Further, Cannon stated that he is known as a father of several kids. He continued: “But I’m really at a place now where I don’t care what people know. I’d rather just operate. It’s more about really being a good person instead of telling people you’re a good person.”
