Nick Cannon: "Letting Go" is "Amazing, Outstanding"

Nick Cannon is gearing up for the fifth annual TeenNick HALO Awards, which honors teens who make a
difference in their communities. Hosted, created and executive produced by Cannon, the special pairs each honoree with a celebrity - Josh Hutcherson, Queen Latifah, Chris Paul and Shay Mitchell - who shares their commitment to service.
 Cannon, 33, talked to Parade.com about his inspiration for the HALO Awards, passing down his love of service to his two-year-old twins, Monroe and Morocco, and planning for the holiday season with wife Mariah Carey.

Christmas is really big in your family. What do you have planned for the upcoming holiday season?
My wife is Miss Christmas, so it's definitely going to be festive! It's really about just shutting everything down. That's the only time of the year we get to do that and kind of focus solely on family and celebrating the holiday. That's what I look forward to more than anything.

What do you get the woman who has everything?
As long as it's thoughtful, she's happy with it. It's never really about how much it costs or how grand it is, it's more about how thoughtful it is. Like I'll put together a video of the past year and put music to it, and I once had one of her favorite artists paint a picture of her. The more thoughtful the gift is, the better.

What can you share about Mariah's latest single, "The Art of Letting Go", which will be released on November 11?
It's amazing! It's outstanding. Her focus is on the new song right now, and after that, she'll probably reveal something else to the world!
