[ # ] Nick Cannon says he, ‘can not see myself returning’ to America’s Got Talent
February 13th, 2017 under America's Got Talent, Nick Cannon


Last week, TMZ reported that Nick Cannon almost got fired from America’s Got Talent over a joke he told in his Showtime Comedy special about NBC forcing him to lose his “Black Card.” Today, even though the network said they would not fire him, he says he doesn’t want to say. He took to Facebook to explain his decision.

In his long post, he said, “I have mulled over my process for days and felt it was best to once again speak my mind about an unjust infrastructure that treat talent like they own them. Maybe it was my mistake for signing the contract in the first place, in which I will take full responsibility and have already taken action to restructure my own team of advisors. I now have to set out on a journey of freedom as an artist. As I was quoted in a recent interview, ‘You can’t fire a Boss!’ and that is the essence that I possess. So I wish AGT and NBC the best in its upcoming season but I can not see myself returning” In fact, he goes on to say that he is thinking of quitting the industry all together.

As of now, no word from NBC on his decision and who might replace him in the LA Rounds that are set to tape next month and the show this summer. If it were up to me, I would go with either Leslie Jones or Jerry O’Connell. Who would you hire?

When it comes to Nick Cannon, I think he is making a mistake. NBC had every right to consider firing him. Since he has only worked as an actor, musician and/or comedian, he doesn’t know the first rule of having a job. Never bad mouth the company you are working. The first amendment doesn’t protect your employment even if it is all done in fun. I used to think he had a huge future in this business, but now I think he is so full of himself that he is at the point of no return.

What do you think of it all?
