Nick Cannon Forgets His Kids' Names: Fans React
Nick Cannon is no stranger to controversial parenting choices, and his most recent interview isn't helping his case. The media mogul is the proud father of 12 children: He shares 14-year-old twins Moroccan and Monroe with his ex-wife Mariah Carey; sons Golden Sagon (8) and Rise Messiah Cannon (2) and daughter Powerful Queen (4) with Brittany Bell; 3-year-old twins Zion Mixolydian and Zillion Heir and daughter Beautiful Zeppelin (2) with Abby De La Rosa. He fathers son Legendary Love (2) with Bre Tiesi, and daughter Onyx Ice Cole (2) with LaNisha Cole. Nick also shares two children with Alyssa Scott — son Zen, who died at five months old in December 2021 after being diagnosed with brain cancer, and daughter Halo Marie Cannon (2). Earlier this week, during the latest episode of The Really Good Podcast with Bobbi Althoff, Nick was quizzed on his children's names, and, unfortunately, he didn't pass the test. The two discussed an array of topics, with one of them being fatherhood. Nick opened up about wanting to live like a king. Despite revealing he doesn't want to get married again, he revealed he'd rather enjoy multiple women and produce a court of children. "Why do you have so many kids?" Bobbi asked. "I always wanted a big family, but I come from an unorthodox family," replied Nick, who has four younger brothers. "I have a king complex. I really think I'm a king," he added. "Do kings have a lot of kids?" she questioned. "Yeah, that's their court. They enlarge their territory." To emphasize his comments, Nick told Bobbi the story of King Solomon from the Bible and explained how he had 700 wives and 300 concubines. "I don't want no wives, I just want more kids." But shortly after making that statement, The Masked Singer host added, "I think I'm done [having children]...I don't know what God and the universe have in store for me." Later on in the interview, Bobbi asked Nick about the names of his 12 offspring. "You want all 12 names?" he replied. "Right, this is usually where I get in trouble." Bobbi pondered, "Why 'cuz you don't know all of them?" To which Nick responded, "I know all of them, but when you label... Like, can you label or just rattle off 12 of anything?" Nick then challenged her to name 12 states, but Bobbi wanted him to ask her to name something more personal so that it would match him listing the names of his children. After a little back-and-forth, Nick finally responded: "There's Rock (Moroccan), Roe (Monroe), Golden, Powerful, Rise, Onyx, Legendary, Zion, Zillion, Zen, this is where many is that?" After a short pause, he concluded, "I'm missing two. Oh, yeah, did I say Beautiful? There's Beautiful and then there's Halo, my youngest." can watch the full interview below: What do you think of all this? Share your thoughts with me below!

Mehrain, Dames and Moore/NOAA On this date in history: In 1788, the U.S. Constitution became effective when it was ratified by a ninth state, New Hampshire. In 1942, German forces, led by Gen. Erwin Rommel, took control of Tobruk, Libya, in an assault on British forces. The North African city was a key port on the Mediterranean Sea. In 1945, Japanese defenders of Okinawa surrendered to U.S. troops. In 1964, Ku Klux Klan members killed three civil rights activists -- James Chaney, Andrew Goodman and Michael Schwerner -- and hid their bodies in unmarked graves. An informer led the FBI to the three men's graves 44 days later. In 1982, John Hinckley Jr. was found not guilty by reason of insanity in the March 1981 shootings of U.S. President Ronald Reagan and three other people who were also wounded. Hinckley has been in a hospital in Washington, with permission in recent years to spend time outside the institution with his family. UPI File Photo In 1985, international experts in Sao Paulo, Brazil, conclusively identified the bones of a 1979 drowning victim as the remains of Dr. Josef Mengele, a Nazi war criminal, ending a 40-year search for the "angel of death" of the Auschwitz concentration camp. In 1990, an earthquake measuring 7.7 on the Richter scale struck northwestern Iran, killing up to 50,000 people. In 1997, Cambodia announced the capture of former Khmer Rouge leader Pol Pot. In 2005, a Mississippi jury convicted 80-year-old former Ku Klux Klan leader Edgar Ray Killen of manslaughter in the 1964 killings of three civil rights workers. He was sentenced to 60 years in prison and died in 2018. In 2008, nearly 1,400 people, most of them on a ferry that capsized, were killed in Typhoon Fengshen in the Philippines. In 2011, a RusAir passenger plane flying from Moscow to Petrozavodsk in rain and fog crashed on a highway near an airport and broke apart in flames. Forty-four people died, eight survived. In 2020, the acoustic guitar Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain used during the band's 1993 MTV Unplugged special sold for more than $6 million. It set a new record for highest auction price for a guitar in history. In 2021, Las Vegas Raiders defensive lineman Carl Nassib became the first active NFL player in league history to come out as gay. File Photo by Kyle Rivas/UPI In 2021, Laurel Hubbard made history as the first openly transgender athlete to be selected to compete in an Olympic Games, qualifying for a spot on New Zealand's weightlifting team. In 2023, the Food and Drug Administration granted approval for GOOD Meat, the meat division of Eat Just, and UPSIDE Foods, to sell cultivated poultry in the United States. It was the first approval by the regulatory body for companies to produce meat by growing cells extracted from an animal's body.

Woman Returns to Dog Left Home Alone—What She Finds Leaves Her Sobbing
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A 5-month-old puppy with a case of separation anxiety left an owner sobbing in horror with what she discovered after returning home. Shanna White, also known on TikTok as @theregoshan1, has a red-nosed pit bull and German shepherd mix puppy named Ja'Dioree Scarlett, whom she's owned since the dog was only 5 weeks old. Ja'Dioree Scarlett, like many dogs, experiences separation anxiety when alone. Dogs with separation anxiety become extremely stressed and anxious, often causing them to become destructive. However, White said her puppy has never shown signs of being stressed while home alone. Ja'Dioree Scarlett never ruined the house. But White recently came home to a surprising scene after being gone for about an hour. She returned home to discover seemingly every last inch of the place destroyed. The blinds were chewed off. Items were thrown around. Pee on the bed. It became a headache for White after she was already under a lot of stress. She said this situation made it "worse." In her June 17 TikTok video, White walked around her home revealing more and more damage. She wrote in the caption that her pup "ate" her home. She cried in disbelief, wondering what had happened to her house after leaving it pristine and her pup calmly relaxing. "I know she has separation anxiety, but I didn't know she was that smart to open my room door," White said. "The only thing going through my mind was my house and how would I pay for all of it." Screenshots from a June 17 TikTok video of a 5-month-old pit bull and German shepherd mix puppy innocently behaving while owner was home. Screenshots from a June 17 TikTok video of a 5-month-old pit bull and German shepherd mix puppy innocently behaving while owner was home. @theregoshan1/TikTok Within three days of posting, the TikTok video reached over 1.2 million views and 105,000 likes. Viewers were left speechless over this dog's "field day." "She had a funky good time," wrote one person. Another added: "Peeing on my bed would've sent me over the edge." However, several users flooded the comment section with their concerns about this pup's behavior. They ridiculed the owner: "I blame you cause why you left that toddler out." Pet parents are often divided on whether or not to crate train. Proponents argue crates provide dogs a safe space to go when they're feeling stressed, scared or tired. It keeps them out of trouble. But others will say it creates unwanted emotional stress, especially when left for extended periods of time. Do you have funny and adorable videos or pictures of your pet you want to share?
