Aside from sharing that he is taking the change one day at a time, he also stated that he is in the process of covering up the back tattoo he had gotten in honor of Carey.

Commenting about the tattoo, the "America's Got Talent" host shared, ""It's not finished yet. I'll talk to you when it gets finished. It wasn't supposed to be revealed yet. I was not in the middle of the street. I was on private property. I didn't know they were there. That's how sneaky paparazzi are."

The 34-year old celeb shared that the cover-up is still fresh and painful, stating that he has to still be very careful with it.

With regards to his twins with Carey, Moroccan and Monroe, Cannon shared that they are doing well and, are currently accompanying Carey as she goes on tour.

Carey is currently in Asia promoting her latest album, "The Elusive Chanteuse".

Cannon added that although he and Carey are no longer together, they continue to share mutual respect and admiration for each other. He stated that they are constantly in touch and that he still believes that she is one of the best performers in the industry.

The host also shared that he will continue to wish the best for Carey, who is rumored to be dating her longtime friend, director-producer Brett Ratner who she had worked with in her previous music videos.

Cannon, on the other hand, is rumored to be dating model Amber Rose who had signed on with his management company.
