Nick Cannon Gives Tour of Lavish New Jersey Mansion with Twins
Nick Cannon, the multi-talented entertainer and father of 12, gave fans an inside look at his sprawling New Jersey mansion in a YouTube video posted on Dec. 31, 2024. The tour featured his 13-year-old twins, Moroccan and Monroe, whom he shares with ex-wife Mariah Carey.
The video showcased the mansion’s luxurious amenities, including Moroccan’s bedroom with a gaming corner, a red-themed foyer with a grand piano, and a family room transformed into a ball pit with a slide. Cannon, 44, explained that the slide was installed before he even had children, emphasizing the home’s family-friendly design.
One of the highlights of the tour was Cannon’s ‘White Room,’ a zen lounge featuring a Buddha head, family photos, and a cozy fireplace. The room is off-limits to his children, adding an air of exclusivity. The library, inspired by a ‘Godfather motif,’ houses a custom pool table and collectibles, including a Bearbrick figure wearing one of Carey’s backstage passes.
Cannon also showed off his eclectic bar room, which includes a custom Avion Tequila bottle with his face on the label, a Notorious B.I.G. Budweiser can, and a jumbo bottle of Armand de Brignac Ace of Spades Champagne gifted by Jay-Z. ‘This is my type of bottle,’ Monroe joked, prompting Cannon to quickly clarify, ‘We are not advocating you drinking, ever!’
The mansion’s dining room, inspired by Nino Brown from ‘New Jack City,’ features gothic-style furniture and medieval tableware. The modern kitchen, complete with a breakfast nook and a stocked refrigerator, leads to a candy room filled with sweet treats. ‘I’m pretty sure a lot of this is expired. A lot of it is for decoration,’ Monroe quipped.
Cannon’s primary bathroom boasts a free-standing jacuzzi bathtub and a wood-burning fireplace, while the basement includes a home theater, a fitness center, and a recording studio. The estate’s grounds feature a lake, a swimming pool, and a pool house slated for renovation.
During the tour, Cannon reflected on his 2012 lupus diagnosis, calling it his ‘superpower’ and drawing parallels to Iron Man‘s resilience. ‘I’m the Black Tony Stark, baby,’ he said while donning a Louis Vuitton Iron Man helmet.
Cannon shares his 12 children with multiple partners, including Carey, Brittany Bell, Abby De La Rosa, Bre Tiesi, LaNisha Cole, and Alyssa Scott. His son Zen, whom he shared with Scott, passed away in 2021 at five months old due to brain cancer.
