Nick Cannon Says He Hopes His Children Will Do Something More “Challenging” Than Becoming Nepo Babies
Nick Cannon has his fingers crossed that his kids don’t follow in his footsteps.
Prince Williams / Getty ImagesHe continued, “I want you to do something that’s challenging, go outside of the box, so you can see effort and perseverance and those things, because they’re a nepo baby.”
Jason Mendez / WireImage / Getty ImagesWhile Nick gets there are “advantages” to being a nepo baby and it may come “naturally” to his children, he says he’d rather see them do something like sports.
Shahar Azran / Getty Images“That’s why I love…to see my kids try sports, because it has nothing to do with anything. It literally is however much work you put in, how hard you go, that’s how you’ll succeed in that space,” he explained.
Cindy Ord / Getty Images for SiriusXMNick added, “They can learn all of those cool principles through having fun with their friends. I’m hoping for a few athletes. I hope I can be that dad on the sidelines somewhere rooting for them.”

John Lamparski / Getty ImagesNick explained that he wishes he’d learned “theory and all the musicality at a very young age,” so he’s now “giving them that gift” by putting them in music lessons.
Amanda Edwards / Getty Images“I’m like, ‘Look, you’re gonna get the lessons. You’re gonna know how now you can do whatever you want to do. You get to impress the girls, or you can make a career out of it,'” Nick said.
Jason Koerner / Getty ImagesAnd if it all works out, Nick admits he has been “thinking about” starting a family band.
Gabriel Olsen / Getty Images“I’ll put everybody on a bus,” he joked. “I honestly do think about that, though, because music is just in my blood and that is where we find joy in our household, so I would love it.”
