Nick Cannon has had enough with the rumors surrounding the fate of his relationship with wife Mariah Carey, and he's taken to Twitter to set the record straight.
The 33-year-old "America's Got Talent" host posted a series of tweets Wednesday evening, Sept. 3, slamming the media portrayal of his marriage and claiming some quotes attributed to him are fake.
Cannon wrote:
I have personally been absent from social media for the past few months for obvious reasons but I feel the need to finally speak up...
— Nick Cannon (@NickCannon) September 3, 2014
During this challenging time for me and my family it saddens me that the media can be such evil bottom feeders...
— Nick Cannon (@NickCannon) September 3, 2014
Because my family & I haven't been forthcoming with personal information, people are quick to paint negative pictures and spread rumours
— Nick Cannon (@NickCannon) September 3, 2014
For the record I NEVER have, nor will I make a statement regarding my marriage.
— Nick Cannon (@NickCannon) September 3, 2014
So whatever your favorite gossip outlet is reporting has been created within their own imagination...
— Nick Cannon (@NickCannon) September 3, 2014
At this difficult time I would ask all civilized people to please respect my family and this process...
— Nick Cannon (@NickCannon) September 3, 2014
What infuriates me most is to hear people slander @MariahCarey . I will forever be in debted to her for blessing me with our children...
— Nick Cannon (@NickCannon) September 3, 2014
I will always love her unconditionally for this and so much more. @MariahCarey is an amazing Mother and I trust her wholeheartedly...
— Nick Cannon (@NickCannon) September 3, 2014
So to see false reports in the media stating otherwise is absurd! While I would like to remain silent I can no longer allow this to happen.
— Nick Cannon (@NickCannon) September 3, 2014
I love @MariahCarey and that will never change!!!
— Nick Cannon (@NickCannon) September 3, 2014
If the media wants to portray me as the Bad guy that's fine...
— Nick Cannon (@NickCannon) September 3, 2014
But it is unfair to drag innocent people into the equation...
— Nick Cannon (@NickCannon) September 3, 2014
Others have lives, families, and careers and for the media to slander them is down right evil and illegal...
— Nick Cannon (@NickCannon) September 3, 2014
I apologize to anyone who's gotten caught up in this unwarranted drama.
— Nick Cannon (@NickCannon) September 3, 2014
BTW Shouts out to the so called "Sources"!
— Nick Cannon (@NickCannon) September 3, 2014
I hope the check was worth it... @

"Don't worry about my life, worry about why you're worried about my life!"
— Nick Cannon (@NickCannon) September 3, 2014
And finally, "Trouble in Paradise" is the dumbest phrase I've ever heard! I would never say that sh!t
— Nick Cannon (@NickCannon) September 3, 2014
Now back to your regularly scheduled programming... #radiosilence
— Nick Cannon (@NickCannon) September 3, 2014
The tweet before last seemingly refers to his interview with Yahoo's The Insider host Chris Spencer last month, in which Cannon was quoted as saying: "There is trouble in paradise. We have been living in separate houses for a few months."
The father of two later tweeted about the season finale of his show, "Wild 'N Out." Mariah Carey hasn't addressed the rumors via her social media channels yet.
