Nick Cannon Writes Letter To Eminem Declaring War....SMH

We're guessing the baby on the way just isn't enough publicity for Nicki Cannon....

In a post on his blog, Nicki Cannon wrote,

“(Eminem is) still obsessed with my wife, the same female that wouldn’t let him get to second base from 8 years ago.”

Cannon called Eminem “Slim Lamey” and offered him a challenge, writing,

“Man to man, let’s meet up and deal with this like adults… This is my invitation to you, whenever and wherever you like, sir. So when you come out of your introverted hiding place and ask your bodyguards if you can go out and play by yourself, I’m here Pimp!”

And he further teased Eminem by stating,

“Your legacy has now been tainted from this day forth! You will now be known as the rapper who lost to corny-ass Nick Cannon!”

The angry post was later removed, but Cannon isn’t finished with making fun of Eminem and plans to make the rapper the butt of his jokes during his comedy special.

A spokesman for Showtime says,

“In his first-ever comedy special, the popular comic actor and musician reveals surprisingly edgy, hysterically honest tales of his failed attempts at being a gangster, his humble roots, marriage, fatherhood and his thoughts about the rapper Eminem.”

She tells Life & Style,

"My ultimate goal was to share this incredibly personal moment with my true fans."

Mariah's expected to deliver twins - a boy and a girl - within the next few weeks; and she even spent her birthday, March 27th, in the hospital experiencing contractions. That turned out to be a false alarm though; however the babies were very active during mom's photoshoot!

"The babies were kicking almost the entire time; it was unbelievable...

"Especially the girl - clearly she's a diva in training! We didn't start shooting until 1:30 a.m. because I was in the hospital from the night before until the day of the shoot with contractions five minutes apart!"

"I thought I couldn't love Mariah more, but I have a whole new appreciation and admiration for her,"

says hubby Nick Cannon.

The couple are very excited about the upcoming birth, and have spared no expense on a lavish nursery, featuring 18-carat gold trim and ivory walls. The twins will each have diamond-encrusted iPods and a flatscreen TV that drops down from the ceiling.

Mariah adds,

"Now I have so much respect for mothers everywhere, especially those who've had difficult pregnancies or given birth to multiples. We need to have Mother's Day once a week!"

Mariah Carey Finally Speaks About Her Pregnancy!

Mariah Carey has been looking as voluptuous as always but is she pregnant as well? Carey hasn't spoken out about her rumored pregnancy. Husband Nick Cannon has actually been doing most of the talking. Now, Mariah Carey has finally spoken out on rumors that she is four months pregnant!



According to reports, Mariah Carey took to her website and had a few things to say about her rumored pregnancy. The singer stated that she would share the information when the time was right! So does that mean Mariah Carey is pregnant or she's trying to get pregnant or what?


The reports say, Mariah Carey, 38, and husband Nick Cannon, 27, recently left a gynecologist office in LA holding what looked to be a sonogram!


The source told the New York Post:

"Mariah came out of the office clutching what looked like a sonogram and being greeted by her entourage with cheers. She was ebullient!"


As for Mariah Carey, here's what she had said, "People are constantly asking me if I'm pregnant, but I don't like to talk about it too much. I just think about it as the next phase.

We'll see. I've changed my mind about becoming a mother because I'm with The One. I think we would make good parents, and that we'd be able to figure out how to do it properly."


On Maria Carey's website, the songstress wrote:

"I appreciate everyone's well wishes. But I am very superstitious. When the time is right, everyone will know - even Cindi Berger (her publicist)."

Mariah Carey Says She Was Emotionally and Mentally Abused: Compares Herself to Rihanna & Clears Pregnant Rumors!

Mariah Carey says she sympathizes with Rihanna – who was assaulted by ex-boyfriend Chris Brown last February – because she herself has been the victim of emotional and mental abuse.
In an interview airing Wednesday night on CNN's Larry King Live, when asked how she reacted to the Rihanna news, Carey, 40, responds, "I was very sequestered, as you know, when I first started out ... I wasn't really allowed out of the house, so I can't imagine what she went through."

Yet when pressed if she had ever personally been the victim of abuse, Carey – who married singer Nick Cannon, 29, last year – does admit to painful episodes in a previous relationship.

"Emotionally, mentally, in other ways ... It's scary," she says. "You know, I just think you get into a situation and you feel locked in. If your situation is similar to one of the situations I've been in – which I won't harp on – for me, to really get out, it was difficult because there was a connection that was not only a marriage but a business thing, where the person was in control of my life."

In the interview, Carey also shoots down rumors that she's pregnant, telling King, "It would be the happiest thing in my life, but what I'm saying is right now with this movie [Precious] coming out, with the next few singles from the album and those things that I'm doing, I need to focus on that, because I cannot do the having-a-child thing halfway."

"I wouldn't be just like, 'Oh, I'm having a child, Yay! Let me get a nanny so I can give her the baby. Take the kid,' " she adds. "That doesn't work for me. I don't believe in that."

Nick Cannon Says Eminem is "lucky I haven't run into him yet"

"[Eminem is] lucky I haven't run into him yet," Nick Cannon told In Touch Weekly "I'm supposed to protect my woman if someone can be so heinous and disrespectful. Until we speak, I don't respect him as a man. He and I need to have an old-school sit-down."

Mariah Carey: I Would Like To Have Kids.

Mariah Carey recently admitted to Barbara Walters on her Sirius XM Radio show that she "would like to" have kids one day. Some are speculating that the songstress is already expecting her first child. Mariah is pictured above on Wednesday (Sept. 23) in NYC with her hubby, Nick Cannon.

“I would like to do that,” Mariah told Barbara of having children. “My thing about right now is that I have to put this album out and the movie, Precious.”

Co-host Bill Geddie reminded Mariah, “You know what they say, there’s no good time.” The 39-year-old Glitter actress was quick to reply that she is simply too busy right now, “There is a little bit of a better time than when you’re promoting a move, album and a fragrance."

Mariah's 28-year-old hubby commented earlier this year on their plans for children in the near future:

"When you start a union, that has to be one of things that is on the forefront of your mind, but we're so busy with everything else. We love each other, so we're constantly in practice. We're going to let nature take its course, but the course is not a long one."

Nick Cannon Spills The Beans On How Mariah And Him Got Married.

Last night on the Tonight Show, Nick Cannon spilled the beans to Conan O'Brien about how he managed to romance one of the biggest pop stars on the planet—his wife, Mariah Carey. In the interview Cannon explained how he "spoke their relationship into existence," telling Conan: "Being an entertainer, they always ask who your celebrity crush is, and I would always say Mariah Carey."

Although most folks would laugh him off when he brought it up, eventually Nick got a call from the director of Mariah's hit video "Touch My Body," who asked him to play the role of the nerdy lover in the video (a part that eventually went to 30 Rock star Jack McBrayer). Although Nick turned that part down (he hated the wardrobe selection), Carey called Nick back for her next video in which he was able to play the love interest and the rest, as they say, is history!

Did you ever think that Mariah and Nick would last this long?

Mariah Carey is back with her third installment
in the fragrance industry, "Forever"

Thanks to her continued relationship with Elizabeth Arden. Arden also produces perfume for such bigwigs as Britney Spears, Elizabeth Taylor, Hilary Duff and Usher. What’s unique about the branding approaching to her new fragrance entitled Forever is it’s a bit more upscale than her previous two: “M” (2007) and Luscious Pink (2008).
