“It hurts me to see him crash out like this and truly disappointed in all these media outlets who continue to exploit him,” Cannon responded in a since-deleted comment
Nick Cannon has nothing but love for Orlando Brown despite the That’s So Raven alum’s shocking claims.
On Dec. 1, Brown was on a Twitch livestream hosted by Deshae Frost when he suddenly went on a tangent, accusing Cannon of giving him oral sex. In the video, obtained by Hollywood Unlocked, Brown, 37, put his face up to the camera and shouted about Cannon’s alleged escapades.
“Nick Cannon, he really do like to, you know, suck cannons, and that’s what he does,” Brown said, alluding to oral sex. “He sucked a good cannon on me. He sucked my cannon. He licked my cannon.”
In the clip, which started with him saying he “never lied” about anyone, Brown’s voice grew louder as he yelled: “Nick, you sucked my d—, and don’t you ever forget it!”

Cannon, 44, later responded in the comments of the Hollywood Unlocked post, seemingly taking the claims as a joke and wishing Brown well.
“Man I love this brother Orlando! Sincerely I believe this young man is brilliant and beyond talented! It hurts me to see him crash out like this and truly disappointed in all these media outlets who continue to exploit him,” The Masked Singer host wrote in a since-deleted message.
The rest of the video brought other famous names into the mix, with Brown calling out Cannon’s ex-wife as well as comedian Kevin Hart.
“That’s why Mariah Carey left your a–, and you’re lying,” Brown alleged, followed by profanities. “Stop lying, running around here with Kevin Hart.”
Brown also questioned why Cannon and Hart were “sending animals” to each other and claimed they “look weird doing that kind of s—.”
Brown is best known for playing Eddie Thomas on That’s So Raven, a Disney Channel sitcom which ran from 2003 to 2007 and depicted Raven-Symoné as a psychic who could see the future just moments before events occurred. Eddie was Raven’s best friend on the show, along with Chelsea Daniels, who was played by Anneliese van der Pol.
Since then, Brown’s life has taken a rocky turn, most recently getting arrested in 2022 for threatening a relative with a hammer and a knife. Brown pleaded guilty to criminal damaging in February 2023, and he was later sentenced to 60 days in jail, though the judge gave him credit for the 42 days he served, according to Ohio-based outlet WLIO. The remaining 18 days were suspended by the judge as long as he avoids future trouble with the law.
In 2018, Brown appeared on The Dr. Phil Show, where he opened up about his struggles with addiction, mental health and homelessness, as well as his multiple arrests. The actor also revealed he got a large tattoo of Raven-Symoné’s face on his neck and chest.
On the show, Brown revealed that he struggled with drug and alcohol addiction, including crystal meth use. “Just the influence and the demons that come with that drug kind of took over,” he said.
