Cannon has opened up about how much his child support with Vanity Fair, rebutting a report by The Sun that he paid $3 million in child support. In a story published May 7th, he told LA Times, “That’s not a lot of money.”

So how much does he make to support all his kids? According to Cannon, he makes $100 million a year. “When you think about my lifestyle, I have to generate at least $100 million a year,” he told the outlet.

“Everybody thinks Ryan Seacrest has tons of money. I do everything that he does times 10. Well, not times 10 — times three,” the 42-year-old added.

The host also opened up about the public’s image of his procreation. “I’ve been villainized,” Cannon said “I hear all the time: ‘You can’t be present for all those children.’ So therefore I get this deadbeat dad title.”
