Roommates, social media was up in arms today after a video surfaced of troubled former child star Orlando Brown claiming that he had sexual relationship with Nick Cannon. After a few hours, Nick responded—and it wasn’t how many expected.
Seemingly out of nowhere, Orlando Brown dropped some explosive claims against Nick Cannon, specifically stating that Nick “sucked his d**k” at some point in the past. In the video, Orlando also said, “And I liked it. It was OK. But everybody knows you did it as a female. You don’t want me on ‘Wild ‘N Out’.”
Orlando is laughing throughout the short clip and has a very lighthearted attitude regarding his claims. If you’ll recall, you know that this is not the first time he claimed to sleep with someone in the entertainment industry, as he previously claimed that he and Raven-Symone had a sexual encounter when they were both starring on the Disney hit series, “That’s So Raven.” She quickly denied his claims.

Back to Nick, he responded to Orlando’s video—but it wasn’t a response of anger, instead it was one of concern and hopeful prayer:
“When I first saw this I thought it was f–king hilarious!!!! But then after putting a little cognitive effort and analytical thought to the situation, I figured what a great opportunity for a ‘teachable moment’! First off let me say I am praying for the young brother Orlando even though I don’t really know him personally, I have always loved and enjoyed his talent and have been a fan of his past work. He was f–king brilliant in “Major Payne,” and had us all laughing on “That’s So Raven.” But this is another crucial example of when we allow our young artists to be prematurely exposed by this demonic business and left out to fend for themselves. We need better support systems for our youth and take care of our own. I watched various of this young brothers videos and all I see is a cry out for help. So I don’t know if there are any real leaders or solid individuals in this young man’s life but let’s embrace him and tighten him up so he doesn’t become another lost victim to these Hollywood circumstances.”
Nick continued, adding:
“I indeed believe this brother has the God given talent to be on “Wildnout” but this definitely ain’t the way to audition, this actually hurts my heart to see that we have allowed Orlando, along with various other young gifted performers we grew up loving, to just dwindle away after these corporations made their billions off of them. Now due to substance abuse and diagnosed psychiatric disorders our loved ones are now aimlessly begging for the attention they were once given, instead of the help they actually need. All while we sit back and just laugh… For us to continue to post slander and tear one another down for click bait to make these white supremacy propagated platforms more money is asinine and deplorable. These cannibalistic tactics only destroy ‘Us.’ Really, in post like this, who wins??? We might chuckle, joke, pass the gossip on through our low frequency vibrations but does it truly make you feel good??? Especially knowing that there are higher powers looking down at you.”
You may remember back in 2018, Orlando appeared on Dr. Phil for an intervention due to his claims that he was Michael Jackson’s son.
Roommates, what are your thoughts on this?
