Nick Cannon says he's not into monogamy

During an appearance on the It's Tricky with Raquel Harper podcast, Cannon shut down the possibility of getting married again in a legal sense.

"It depends on what you call marriage. Getting the government involved, no. We can go have a ceremony somewhere. Why would the government be involved in your love life? That seems so bizarre to me. It's really a business and to bring business and love together, that's a tough one to get involved with," he said.

Cannon was previously married to Mariah Carey from 2008 to 2016 and the two share 11-year-old twins Monroe and Moroccan.

When talking about his previous marriage, he said:

"That to me was one of the greatest experiences of my life and for that to come to an end as well, why would I go back if I couldn't make that work out right?"

He explained that for him to go back to getting married, he will have to be presented with something he's never seen before.

"I did my best in this space, and now I feel like there's a new journey in my life. I'm not going to backtrack and put myself in that situation again because it doesn't get better than that," he added.
