Nick Cannon

Project: Wild N’ Out

In July 2020, ViacomCBS spread the news that their partnership with Nick Cannon had concluded. The reason for this is due to his controversial comments on his own podcast Cannon’s Class. To express Nick’s disappointment, he posted a lengthy post on Facebook demanding ownership of the Wild N’ Out brand. He also added that he was with the company for two decades and that he wouldn’t let himself be bullied or silenced.

Cannon then reached out to the people affected by his statements. He mentioned that he felt sorry for what he said and that it was never his intention to hurt the group. He also added that he tried to mend his relationship with ViacomCBS Chair Shari Redstone by apologizing. However, the company’s spokesperson denied the supposed act by calling it “absolutely untrue.” Cannon currently has the hosting credit in the highly successful program The Masked Singer.
