Nick Cannon Lauds Elon Musk For Helping The World End ‘Underpopulation Crisis’
American entertainment polymath, Nick Cannon, who has fathered seven children, soon to be eight, has saluted world’s wealthiest man, Elon Musk after welcoming his tenth offspring.
Nick Cannon showed his support for Musk via Twitter on Thursday, after the Tesla founder seemingly confirmed a report that he secretly welcomed twins in November 2021.
“Doing my best to help the underpopulation crisis. A collapsing birth rate is the biggest danger civilization faces by far,” Musk, 51, tweeted amid the news.
Cannon, 41, then chimed in, tweeting at Musk, “Right there with you my Brother!✊🏾.”
Right there with you my Brother!✊🏾

The former “Wild ’n Out” host made the joke just one day after a report surfaced that Musk quietly welcomed twins with Shivon Zilis – one of the billionaire’s top executives – late last year.

According to court documents obtained by Business Insider, the twins were born just weeks before Musk and his now-ex-girlfriend Grimes welcomed their second child, a baby girl named Exa Dark Sideræl, via surrogate in December 2021. They also share 2-year-old son X Æ A-Xii.
Musk’s kids with Grimes join his five other living children — Griffin, Vivian Jenna, Kai, Saxon and Damian — whom he shares with ex-wife Justine Wilson.
In 2002, he and Wilson, who were married from 2000 to 2008, welcomed son Nevada Alexander. The baby one tragically died of sudden infant syndrome, or SIDS, at only 10 weeks old.
Cannon, meanwhile, has plenty in common with Musk when it comes to fathering many children with various women.
The former Nickelodeon star confirmed in January that he’s expecting his eighth child with Bre Tiesi.
He is already dad to 11-year-old twins Moroccan and Monroe with ex-wife Mariah Carey; 5-year-old son Golden “Sagon” and 1-year-old daughter Powerful Queen with Brittany Bell; and 1-year-old twins Zion Mixolydian and Zillion Heir with Abby De La Rosa.
Like Musk, Cannon also tragically lost a child. The “Drumline” actor shared the heartbreaking news that he and Alyssa Scott’s 5-month-old son, Zen, died last year due to brain cancer.
