According to Page Six, Cannon, 40, said he was not the man who was photographed on a bended knee while kissing Ashanti’s hand during the 2021 VMAs. Turning down the ”accusations”, Nick took to Instagram where he shared a side-by-side photo of himself and his alter ego, Murda Count Harlem, who showed up at the VMAs and actually proposed to Ashanti.
In his caption, Nick Cannon jokingly explained that the man who was seen with Ashanti was not really him but his ”lookalike”. “Usually I don’t address this social media gossip but after my name was trending worldwide again for something I didn’t do. I have to say you all are trippin on this on! I have a brand new Talkshow coming out [on] September 27th! Why would I go to the VMA’s like this!? I heard this some corny new rapper named @MurdaCountHarlem I see no resemblance #respectfully,” Nick wrote on social media.
