Nick Cannon couldn’t be happier that his ex-wife, Mariah Carey, has moved on in her love life — but admits that he’s “not ready” to get back out there just yet.

Ellen DeGeneres couldn’t believe it when the America’s Got Talent host revealed that he wasn’t seeing anyone.

“I wouldn’t say dating. I mean I have friends and we hang out, but I’m not ready to do anything seriously,” he explained. “Especially because I’m really trying to make sure I can establish being in my kids life and working. I’m always so busy. So if I’m not working, they’re my number one priority.”

Not letting it go, DeGeneres asked if Cannon was at least getting “booty calls.”

“No, I’m being celibate I’m trying to work on myself,” the Chi-Raq star revealed. “No sex right now.”

Cannon means it when he says all his time goes to his 4-year-old twins, Moroccan and Monroe. The 35-year-old even spent Thanksgiving with Carey and the kids. “Yeah it’s family. That’s a family time and we’ll always be family,” he said. “We make the kids the number one priority, for them to see their parents together and for everybody to get along and have a great time.”
