On March 7, rapper and comedian Nick Cannon uploaded a trailer for his upcoming series on the E! Network, “Who’s Having My Baby?” The clip featured fellow funnyman Kevin Hart as the show’s host, surprising Cannon and the studio audience with a “Bachelor”-esque queue of female contestants vying for a shot at love with the famously prolific TV personality. The video also revealed the series is set to premiere in the spring. “We’re expecting… a new show on E!” Cannon captioned the cheeky post adorned with a side eye and baby bottle emoticons.
Shortly after releasing the clip on social media, Variety reported that the “Who’s Having My Baby?” studio set was a gag perpetrated by Hart for “an upcoming, not-yet-announced project.” Sources told the publication that the faux-competition show was part of a sketch featuring Cannon within Hart’s venture with NBCUniversal, which owns the E! Network. This isn’t the first time the bite-sized comedian has pulled a prank on the rapper, as Hart once deployed a billboard with Cannon’s phone number saying, “For any advice on fatherhood? Call my best friend Nick Cannon,” in 2021, as noted by CNN.

Despite the seemingly fake competition, Cannon already seems to have found baby mama number thirteen in “Real Housewives of New York” star Luann de Lesseps, as he joked in a recent clip from his hosting gig at “The Masked Singer.” Imagine that, the Countess and the Cannon.
