He said he visits the theme park once a month, and it’s not cheap to move around with such a big family.

“Disneyland is expensive already off [the] top if you’re trying to stay in the hotel. It’s not how it used to be. You gotta make reservations,” he said.

Cannon added that he used to get free perks when he hosted the park’s Christmas morning parade from 2009 to 2019, but that’s no longer the case.

“So, I used to get that Disney bag. They were perks. So, all of that stuff was free. It’s no longer free, and I only had two kids then [twins with ex-wife Mariah Carey,” he said.

Cannon forgets baby's name

In a separate story, Cannon, who shares those kids with six women, during a recent interview, failed to list all the names of his 12 children.
