It's an early Christmas present for Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon: The couple is expecting twins.
Cannon announced the big news on his radio show, 92.3 Now, Thursday morning.
"I didn't even tell my wife I was going to do this," he said. "I'm probably going to get yelled at for not getting permission... We are having twins!"

Cannon, 30, also shared that the first people to hear the news were the Obamas.
"They actually even questioned my wife [at the First Family for a White House Christmas special]," he said. "She hadn't told anybody anything! Because of the excitement and emotion, she shared [the news] with the President and the First Lady."
Carey, 40, wed Cannon in 2008. She became pregnant shortly after, but suffered a miscarriage.
