Nick Cannon believes wife Mariah Carey is "probably the funniest person in the world". The performer said Dreamlover star Mariah constantly makes him laugh. And he said their idea of a good time is to quote lines from Eddie Murphy films to one another.

He said: "She's probably the funniest person in the world, and I don't say that about a lot of people 'cause, as a comedian, it's kind of tough to make me laugh, but she just keeps me rolling, like all day long. "Her sense of humor and her wit is just - her comedic timing, all of it is just impeccable. She is a jokester."


Nick, who hosts America's Got Talent, told website AskMen.com: "Like, we sit around quoting Eddie Murphy movies from the 80s. She is one of those type of people, you'd never expect her to be so funny and so comedically brilliant."

He added: "Like on America's Got Talent, when just out of nowhere, she pinched me on my ass as we're walking off the stage. Stuff like that where it's just - it's a comedian's mind, really."

Nick, 29, married Mariah, 39, in April 2008.
