I think I’m actually built for fatherhood. I love to have a good time and play, but at the same time I’ve got a really serious side to me, and I think that’s the balance you have to have. Get on your kids’ level, but at any point in time, let them know who the parent is. Nick Cannon Read Quote
Hunger is a deep concern of mine, and I feel that no one should go without food in this world as long as there are caring people to lend a hand. I’ve had to struggle in my past and I know what it’s like to go without, so I try to do as much as I can to help bring awareness to an issue that hits very close to home for me.

I want to affect culture. I want to have my mark on everything. I give examples of people like Bill Cosby, Quincy Jones – those are the people who I look up to. The game wouldn’t be the same without them. What happens in the course of 5 years isn’t really important to me. I care about what they’ll say about me in 50 years. Nick Cannon Read Quote
Most aspiring child actors or child stars have a passion for it. But as easy as it is for me to say that I wouldn’t put my kids in it, if I saw that they really, really wanted to do and they had the drive, then I would fully support it. As long as there’s balance at home, then they could do whatever they wanted to do. Nick Cannon Read Quote
Mariah’s fashion game is definitely on a different level than mine. She actually knows Roberto Cavalli and Dolce & Gabbana. I didn’t know those people actually existed; I thought they were just names. Nick Cannon Read Quote
People have always said I have an old soul, and all my best friends are 10 to 15 years my senior. Nick Cannon Read Quote
The beautiful thing about acting is that you can just dive into the character, strip yourself of everything, and just get in there and perfect your craft. Nick Cannon Read Quote
One thing about being a stand-up is it’s a one-man show. You gotta do everything. You’re the producer, writer, director, and the actor. You just gotta be out there and perform and give your all. It’s such an honest form of art that it just taught me so much, and it kind of prepared me for manhood at an early age. Nick Cannon Read Quote
If you want to be in the automotive business, you go to Detroit, and you figure it out. If you want to be in entertainment, go to where it’s at. Go to Hollywood, go to New York. Nick Cannon Read Quote
