Nick Cannon’s brother has admitted even he can’t keep up with the singer’s ever-growing brood and has to google the name of his 12 nieces and nephews.

Famous for having 12 children with five different women, including Mariah Carey, Nick, 42, has previously slammed suggestions he is a ‘deadbeat dad’ who can’t possibly find the time to spend with all of his kids.

In the past however, he has admitted to getting slightly confused by his parenting arrangements, sharing that on a recent Mother’s Day, he got mixed up and handed cards out to the wrong mothers of each child.

Now his brother Gabriel, who recently won the reality series Claim to Fame, has said he even has to turn to the internet for help to figure out who all the kids are.

When asked how he kept up with his brother’s growing family, Gabriel admitted to having a note on his phone of all of the names, adding: ‘That or Google. They’re all on the internet.’

However, he wasn’t too bothered by the fact he couldn’t name all of Nick’s kids and instead pointed the blame at his brother’s inability to keep up at times.

‘I haven’t met them [all yet], but did y’all see what happened with him?,’ he said.

‘Nick messed up [naming] all his kids, so I’m not even gonna attempt. I’m just uncle. It’s easy,’ he added when speaking to Entertainment Weekly.

His statement was referring to when Nick appeared on the Howard Stern Show last April and was asked to name all his children, but accidentally forgot to mention his daughter, Onyx.

‘Moroccan and Monroe, which we call Roc and Roe,’ Nick began to list, starting with his oldest 12-year-old twins he has with his ex-wife Mariah, 54.

He then named his three children with Brittany Bell: Golden, six, Powerful, two, and Rise Messiah, 11 months old.

He also has twins Zion and Zillion, two, and Beautiful Zeppelin, nine months, with Abby De La Rosa.

He mentioned his late son Zen, who died of brain cancer in 2021 at only five months old.

Nick then mentioned his other child with Zen’s mother, Alyssa Scott, who gave birth to their daughter Halo Marie late last year.

‘And then from there, Legendary Love,’ Nick said as he finished his list with his year-old son he shares with Selling Sunset star Bre Tiesi.

However, Howard was quick to point out that the star missed one of his kids – 11-month-old Onyx who he had with LaNisha Cole, a former Price Is Right model.

‘Ah no,’ Nick exclaimed.

‘You know I did. You threw me off because I was going in order.’

While it would be safe to assume Nick now has his hands full, earlier this year he said he’d like to have another child – with none other than Taylor Swift.

In the same Howard Stern interview, he angered Taylor Swift fans by saying that he would ‘absolutely’ love to have his thirteenth child with the singer.

‘I’m in, let’s go!’ he said after the host suggested Nick should have his next child with Taylor since she and Matty Healy, lead singer of The 1975, split up around the time of the interview.

Claim to Fame aired on ABC in the US.
