Mariah Carey’s hubby Nick Cannon laughs off twins rumours

LONDON - Mariah Carey’s hubby Nick Cannon has dismissed reports that his wife is pregnant with twins.

The pop superstar announced earlier in 2010 she is expecting her first child with the rapper/actor in the spring 2011.

However, grapevine suggesting Carey is expecting twins emerged after the ‘Hero’ singer referred to her baby as “they”.

But now, Cannon has explained the slip, saying Carey was just being cautious of not mentioning the baby’s sex as neither of them knows what gender it is.

“That (twins) rumour came from an interview Mariah did where she was talking about her Christmas album and how she’s been singing so much, and she referred to her stomach as ‘they’. She said, ‘I hope they don’t hate Christmas.’ From there we heard all of these twin rumours,” the Daily Star quoted him as telling He tells Access Hollywood.

“But we want to be surprised (about the sex of the baby). We were told that it’s going be one of the biggest surprises of your lifetime to see what the sex of the baby is, so, we’re trying to wait. But you never know,” he said. (ANI)
