Nick Cannon reveals his hectic Thanksgiving schedule, including multiple family dinners.

Nick Cannon has shared his plans for this year's Thanksgiving, revealing that it's going to be a hectic but fulfilling day as he celebrates with his 11 children. The entertainer and host of The Masked Singer, 44, opened up about his busy schedule during an exclusive conversation at the L.A. Mission Thanksgiving charity event on November 27, 2024, in Los Angeles. Cannon, a father to 12 children, explained that his Thanksgiving involves attending multiple family dinners across the day, stating, “I’m going to be full by the end of the day.”

Cannon’s large family includes his 13-year-old twins, Moroccan and Monroe, whom he shares with ex-wife Mariah Carey, as well as children from his various relationships, including sons Golden Sagon and Rise Messiah, daughters Powerful Queen, Onyx Ice, and Beautiful Zeppelin, and more. The star also has two children with the late Alyssa Scott, including son Zen, who tragically passed away in 2021, and their daughter Halo Marie.

Despite his packed schedule, Cannon remains dedicated to giving back. At the L.A. Mission event, which served over 4,000 meals to those in need, he emphasized the importance of service, reflecting on the values his grandmother instilled in him. “To whom much is given, much is required,” he said, underscoring his commitment to helping others during the holiday season. Cannon, along with other volunteers such as Joe Manganiello and Tom Sandoval, also helped provide clothing, haircuts, and manicures to people in need.

In addition to his Thanksgiving duties, Cannon is preparing for an upcoming Wild 'n Out performance in Inglewood, California, on November 30.
