I thought Nick Cannon was so funny too. Tyra is ok, but she’s no Nick, that’s for sure.

But I have to confess that his black lives matter video and poem gave me pause in a few spots. Things like:

But there ain’t no such thing as black on black violence
It’s crime against you and me!
Intolerance of people

So it’s like when I say save the whales
That don’t mean the other fish can’t float
It just means that the whales are endangered
Just like my species

There are certainly things I agree with him about, and he stated he wasn’t voting for Clinton or Trump, so I’m guessing Sanders got his vote.

But who is endangering his species more, the very few cops out there, some of which are just doing their jobs, or the black on black violent criminal taking of lives?

Having said that, to his credit, he never tried to politicize the show and I always looked forward to his comments, facial expressions and often involvement in and with the acts.

I agree with you about Nick's political musings. I don't agree with his BLM support. But when he hosted the show I never saw him espouse any political viewpoints. He was funny and very quick witted. He's much more entertaining than Tyra Banks.
