Jealous Much?


You want to listen to a guy who is worried he is going to lose his meal ticket at any second? Here is Nick Cannon talking about directing Mariah Carey in her new video and watching her pretend to have sex with another man. "We did it in, like, one take and I had to kick the dude out. It was one of those situations where I wasn't intimidated but I could've knocked him out at any point. He was playing, like, a fictional character, but I could have done without it."

Umm, I think what Nick is trying to say here is that he wishes that Mariah showed him the same kind of attention real life. I mean here was some actor who was probably gorgeous who got to fool around with Mariah without having to do her laundry, scrape her corns, or be called Mrs. Carey. Sure, Nick is going to be jealous. He also knows that the only thing he has going for him are his looks and that he met Mariah on a video set pretty much doing the dame thing as the this guy. If she decides maybe the other guy has a little more something to offer her and is a little better at trimming her toenails, Nick is gone. He knows this.

One take? Nick probably didn't care if it came out or not, there was no way that guy was going to get to get any more face time with Mariah. You don't really see intense jealousy or insecurity crop up in just one or two sentences, but Nick did a great job of it.

I like how he went from "not intimidated" straight to "could've knocked him out" hahaha

Why didn't they just have Nick Cannon do it? It probably would have drummed up more publicity for the video.

and it only took 1 take.

Awww, that's kinda cute. I like that Mariah finally has a guy who is into her. Yall are a bunch of cynics! ;)

bad fish-- I was thinking that, but maybe they are afraid of a lack of chemistry.
Maybe Nick was able to up is salary by directing, not acting.

I always forget these two are together, much less married. I give them 18 more months. Max.

Mariah should get give him some babies to take of to get his mind off his insecurities. The over achiever that she is, she could probably pop out triples.

I dunno. On one hand, lack of chemistry, maybe. But if sex didn't keep these two together at first, then what could?

of course it was only one take.
by that time it was past 3am and the unicorn handler needed to get it back to Tom Cruises' live Carousel.

OMG Jax, that was amazing! Nicely done!

One take that lasted hours that they'll edit.
Agreed, Gamma. They won't last long. And she's WAY too self-centered to be a parent.

He'll always be a 12 year old boy to me.

ENT, I was going to call you out on "dame thing" but leave it...that IS pretty much what he was was doing.

The best Nick can do is get her to have a baby (yeah, this from a woman who claims she doesn't want to grow up).

But, if he can get a baby from her, then his financial dreams will be fulfilled.

If not, he'll end up being a nobody in some rundown apartment who brags that in his youth he had been married to Mariah Carey.

Hey Nick, I'll ghostwrite your book. I know all about what it's like to deal with egomaniacal bitches with corns.

No seriously, I do.

Trust me. You have my number.
