Ever since news surfaced that Wild n’ Out head honcho and Real Husbands of Hollywood actor, Nick Cannon, was divorcing Mariah Carey in 2014, it’s been a roller coaster ride for the former couple. Although they filed for divorce in 2014, word on the Old School curb was that the reason it wasn’t finalized until 2016 is because Nick was holding out.
Cannon then became the butt of many jokes and social media memes, because as we watched the “Dream Lover” singer move on with her then billionaire boo, James Packer, it seemed Nick just couldn’t let go.
Thought He Moved On With These Women…Guess Not
Then came the news that Nick, on the other hand, was the one who had moved on, when news spread that he was expecting a new baby boy with his ‘friend’/ex beauty pageant contestant, Brittany Bell. At that time, Nick made it clear that he and Brittany were not together, but he vowed to be 100% active in their son’s life, just as he is in the lives of his 6 year old twins with Mariah. He’s stayed true to his word by the way.
Throughout the course of Brittany’s pregnancy (and prior to), there were rumors that Nick and Chilli (of TLC) were chillin’ together for a minute. There were also rumors that he and model, Lanisha Cole, were dating, which Nick never denied. BUT apparently throughout al of the flings and things, Nick STILL ain’t over Mariah! Don’t take our word for it, get directly from the horse’s mouth…
(Video) Nick Confesses He Ain’t Over Mariah
Nick has just released a new music video dedicated to Mariah and he’s enlisted the help R&B legend, Christopher Williams’ song, “I’m Dreamin’,” to get his point across to her. Although the video is corny in my opinion, it’s still cool that Nick ain’t afraid to display his Keith Sweat begging skills to the masses. He even shouts “I ain’t over my ex,” in the video, in reference to Mariah.
In the video he casted dogs- as in real dogs- to portray people, including himself (he’s the black dog wearing the turban), Mariah (she’s the wearing diamonds, with her white fur blowing in the wind) and rappers, The Migos (they’re the puppies with the locs). In addition to using the “I’m Dreamin'” sample, Nick also got the help of singer, Jeremih, on the hook. Check it out below…
Dream Girl (Explicit) by Ncredible Gang & Nick Cannon
Like I said, although the C. Williams sample is nice, the video is corny as hell, but the message is in the lyrics. I think Mariah now gets where Nick stands loud and clearly…hell, we ALL now get where Nick stands regarding Mariah. Hopefully his lady friends are cool with only getting a piece of him, but not his heart- Mariah clearly still holds the key to that one.
