Nick Cannon's Son Moroccan Shares Heartfelt Father's Day Tribute to His Dad of 12
Nick Cannon's son, Moroccan, is paying tribute to his dad on Father's Day.
'Happy Father's Day pops. I love you so much dad,' Moroccan wrote in a sweet post shared via Instagram on Sunday, June 15. 'You've always been there for me and helped me with whatever problem I'm dealing with at any time and any place. Thank you for raising me to be the dude I am today. You're the best. Enjoy today father!!!'
The celebratory post included a series of photos featuring Nick over the years, who is dad to 12 children with six different women. The competition TV host shares twins Moroccan and Monroe with ex-wife Mariah Carey; sons Golden Sagon and Rise Messiah Cannon and daughter Powerful Queen with Brittany Bell; twins Zion Mixolydian and Zillion Heir and daughter Beautiful Zeppelin with Abby De La Rosa; son Legendary Love with Bre Tiesi; and daughter Onyx Ice Cole with LaNisha Cole.
Cannon is also father to two children with Alyssa Scott, daughter Halo Marie Cannon and son Zen, who died at five months old in December 2021.

Moroccan's sister, Monroe, also wished her dad a special day in the comments section, writing, 'Happy Father's Day Daddy' along with a red heart emoji.
Cannon has made headlines for his large brood as well as how difficult it can be for him to be present in all 12 of his children's lives.
'Being a father of multiple kids, it's always the biggest guilt on me is that I don't get to spend enough time with all my children,' Cannon said during a December 2022 episode of The Checkup with Dr. Agus. 'One 'cause I'm constantly working and two because I'm just spread thin.'
Despite the challenges that come with fathering 12 children, Cannon still wants to expand his family. During a March episode of his podcast 'We Playin' Spades,' Cannon clarified that he has no plans of getting a vasectomy before adding that while obtaining permanent birth control 'may be the responsible thing to do' he's 'not done' having children.

'I'm feeling judged,' he added at the time.
When Cannon's co-host Courtney Bee asked the actor why he wants to have more children, he simply replied, 'Why not?' When asked if he wants to expand his family with the six mothers to the children he already has or with another woman, he said, 'I don't know. I leave it to the Lord.'

'F1' puts audiences with Brad Pitt, Damson Idris behind the wheel of Formula One race car
'F1: The Movie' is a throwback, good ol' summer blockbuster with all of the advantages and flaws associated with such a characterization. It's big, loud, brash with old-timey movie stars (Oh, hi Brad Pitt), stars on the rise (Hey there, Damson Idris) and it exists merely to entertain. In a week where Northeast Ohio is currently baking, it offers the perfect reason to escape to a local theater and not just because it feels like a convection oven outside. 'F1' offers the kind of escapist entertainment that once defined the summer movie season—films unburdened by the weight of expectations stemming from preexisting intellectual property. Truthfully, Formula One, is a property in and of itself, but it's not a world seen on film very often with one recent attempt being the biopic 'Rush.' And it's thoroughly exhilarating to see the race circuit explored via the world of modern filmmaking. The primary reason: Thanks to technology and director Joseph Kosinski's vision, audiences will be thrust into the driver's seat alongside Brad Pitt and Idris Elba, who play rival teammates on a Formula One team led by Ruben Cervantes (Oscar winner Javier Bardem). The team is imploding due to low morale and a lack of wins—both of which have led to financial troubles. In that regard, 'F1' represents an absolute thrill ride, an amusement park attraction come to life with respect to cinematic experience. For those who love being immersed in their film viewing, that's reason enough show up in a theater. Some of us are, however, appreciate the past when minor things such as plot, performances and script are necessary ingredients to that experience. With some exceptions, recent summer blockbusters aren't know for those elements. That's where the pitfalls come with 'F1.' In regards to those aspects, 'F1' can be thoroughly predictable with its story of the grizzled, wily veteran – in this case Pitt's Sonny Hayes – and the suspicious, arrogant wet-behind-the-ears reluctant protégé – Idris' Joshua Pearce – who seems to care more about his social media profile than actually winning. Cervantes obviously brings driver-for-hire Hayes in to force his rookie driver to grow up. Needless to say, that strategy comes with all the tension to be expected. And it doesn't just exist with Pearce. Hayes' arrival causes tension within the organization, especially after Cervantes informs its members that Hayes is auditioning them to see if he wants to join as opposed to the other way around. It's not difficult to predict where this will head. It's familiar ground for director Kosinski, who helmed 'Top Gun: Maverick,' but like any film with these plot points it's a matter of execution. His direction mixed with technology provides the experience. But with Pitt and Idris he has performers who deliver in spades to take it beyond a film completely reliant on the thrills rather than the narrative. Yes, it can be predictable and even cliché, but those elements can easily be forgiven given the overall package. It's a thrill ride, but Pitt easing into a role that requires wisdom rather than smarm and charm is something to relish and in Idris it's not difficult to see he's been mentioned as someone who could play a recast Black Panther. In the case of 'F1: The Movie,' strap in and just enjoy the ride on the biggest screen possible with a premium audio system. George M. Thomas covers a myriad of things including sports and pop culture, but mostly sports, he thinks, for the Beacon Journal.

"I think there needs to be clarification about a lot of things that happened" - Scottie Pippen on the need to continue calling out Michael Jordan
"I think there needs to be clarification about a lot of things that happened" - Scottie Pippen on the need to continue calling out Michael Jordan originally appeared on Basketball Network. When "The Last Dance" aired in the spring of 2020, the world was handed a 10-part celebration of Michael Jordan's towering legacy, 10 hours of cutthroat basketball nostalgia wrapped in slow-motion montages and unfiltered competitiveness. Advertisement It was sleek, powerful and addictive. But for Scottie Pippen, it wasn't a celebration but a selective retelling. The docuseries may have chronicled the dynastic Chicago Bulls era, but its perspective was unmistakably Jordan's. Pippen stands by his words that the portrayal missed the mark. Pippen's backlash Even years later, the seven-time NBA All-Star hasn't walked away from that discomfort. He is more resigned now, measured with the clarity of someone who's had time to rewatch the legacy take shape without his full story in the frame. "I'm not angry at all," Pippen said, reflecting on his criticism of The Last Dance. "Yes, I've had a great career, a wonderful time in Chicago. It is what it is, but I think there needs to be clarification about a lot of things that happened whether it was in the documentary or through the GQ ad that I spoke on." For years, Pippen played the ultimate second fiddle, even as he became the first option in every sense when Jordan walked away from the game in October 1993. He led the Bulls in scoring 22.0 points per game in 1993–94, rebounding, assists and steals that season. He finished third in MVP voting and carried the franchise to 55 wins, just two shy of the previous season with Jordan. Advertisement And yet, in The Last Dance, those months without Jordan were reduced to a few beats in a larger symphony centered on his mythology. Pippen's frustration isn't just about screen time but ownership. Across the years, Pippen's role in the dynasty has been mythologized and minimized in alternating waves. Seven NBA All-Star appearances. 10-time All-Defensive team selections. Olympic gold medals. He guarded the best players, ran the offense and often bailed the team out when games got muddy. Even Jordan, in quieter moments, acknowledged Pippen as essential. But documentaries, with all their cinematic tension and archival flair, can freeze a narrative in time. Related: "We only needed one more guy" - Patrick Beverley says the Clippers lost SGA because Kawhi thought he needed more help Jordan's narrative That '94 postseason was the lone year Jordan was fully removed from the franchise and in that vacuum, Pippen stepped into a leadership role with complexity. He wasn't flawless — and the Kukoc decision left a scar. But he also hit a game-winner earlier in that series and the Bulls nearly knocked off a New York Knicks team that would go on to the NBA Finals. Advertisement The documentary, produced in part by Jordan's company, filtered every storyline through a single lens. So when it came time to chronicle the tension of Game 3 against the Knicks — the now-infamous moment where Pippen sat out the final 1.8 seconds after Phil Jackson drew the game-winning play for Toni Kukoc — it was shown without the nuance of fatigue, sacrifice, or internal locker-room politics. "I think my biggest thing with the documentary was that Michael, who didn't play in '94, who was selling a video based on The Last Dance, was something that he sort of tried to pull out to show that our winning was all about me and this is what everybody else did when I wasn't around," Pippen said. In the docuseries, that season became a sidebar, and for Pippen, that feels like a deliberate framing. And so his comments today are less about digging up old drama than they are about refusing to let one version of the past be written in stone. He isn't waging war against Jordan; he's guarding his place in history.
