Nick Cannon‘s family just got even bigger.
The “Masked Singer” host welcomed baby No. 12 on Friday and his third child with Abby De La Rosa. Together, the two previously welcomed 1-year-old twins, Zion and Zillion. Back in June, the new mom of three announced she was expecting again, less than a year after giving birth to their twins.
Cannon took to Instagram on Saturday to share the news with a photo of them proudly looking at their new little girl. His lengthy caption included the baby’s name: Beautiful Zeppelin Cannon. Cannon aptly dubbed the day a “beautiful day.” He also heaped praise for Abby.
“”Beautiful is privileged to have such a Loving and Spiritually inclined Mother,” he wrote in part. “Your resilience and strength doesn’t go unnoticed. Watching you smile through the world’s madness and my constant craziness is so impressive. Not a day goes by...

Music keeps this world going round, and as such, this year's Grammy Awards included some of the fiercest competition in years! On Sunday, musicians like Megan Thee Stallion, Brittany Howard of Alabama Shakes fame, Dua Lipa, and more came together to celebrate one of the most fascinating years in music. Some have earned epic nominations, like Beyoncé racking up nine nods and being crowned the most-nominated artist of the year, or Roddy Ricch and Taylor Swift earning six nominations each. Others are there to pull out on the stops onstage and show us the best of their best with their performances.
At 9 years old, Blue Ivy Carter became the second youngest Grammy winner for her contributions to mom Beyoncé's "Brown Skin Girl" video. It seems Beyoncé might be the key to winning Grammys, as Megan Thee Stallion also took home one for best rap performance...

Social media reigns supreme! Or at least it does when it comes to the 2015 Grammy nomination announcements. All day long, a constant stream of contenders have been posted to the official Grammy Twitter account. More so than ever this year, the social media savvy singers and bands separated from the pack. While some iconic stars remained strangely mum — not a peep as of this writing from Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, or Beyonce on either Twitter or Instagram — others dove right in. Anyone can write a sincere “Thank you!!!1!” but a few went above and beyond. Whether hashtagging their hearts out, using emojis, or just a fun turn of phrase, these nominees showed off their personalities…which means they’ve already won the award for Social Media Navigation.

It's Anything Can Happen Night on "American Idol." On maybe 70 percent of "Idol" Thursdays, you can narrow your elimination predictions down to two or three singers, maximum, with anybody else being a shock. After Wednesday's decent Songs From The Cinema Night, I'll be able to give easy explanations for two or three boots, but there's a lot of wiggle room for something confusing to happen. Open question: Is there a frontrunner? I mean a *real* David Archuleta/Melinda Doolittle/Adam Lambert-style frontrunner? Have we ever been this later in the season without anything like a favorite? Think about that, while I start my live-blog: 8:00 p.m. Et. Crud! I do this for a living and I forgot that Fox had pushed up the "Hell's Kitchen" premiere and bumped "Rake" to Fridays and all of that stuff. Oh well. Back in an hour! 8:59 p.m. Ok. Let's try this again.
