As RadarOnline.com exclusively reported on Wednesday, Carey, in anticipation of her pregnancy, passed up a role in Tyler Perry's For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow Is Enuf. An insider told us “they’re both very excited and very happy” about the little one on the way.

On Thursday, Cannon was coy about when the pop superstar, 40, will tell the world about the little one on the way.

"I'm pretty sure that when my wife is ready to make any announcement it won't be to the media, to the public, first," Cannon said. "She'll tell her family, she'll tell her friends, and then, you know, when she's ready to share with the rest of the world, who is her extended family and friends, then she'll let everybody know."
