Nick Cannon is relieved that his mother gets along well with Mariah Carey.

Washington: Rapper Nick Cannon is relieved that his mother gets along well with singer wife Mariah Carey because she had been tough on most of his girlfriends before. The 28-year-old singer admits he was nervous about taking his new wife home to meet mum after they wed in 2008, following a whirlwind romance, because he feared she wouldn`t approve of his choice.

However, his mum loves Carey. "Her and Mariah get along wonderfully and I love that because my mum, if she don`t (sic) like you, she`ll let you know instantly,” Contactmusic quoted him as saying. "A couple of my ex-girlfriends got restraining orders on my momma `cos she`ll pull up to your crib in an SUV and just wait. "She`s the nicest woman in the world but you do something wrong to her son, she`ll pull all the ex-gang member moves out... Sometimes they say something about me on the Internet (and) my mum goes nuts on `em. “She just gets in there and just finds out where they live... Forget a bodyguard, I`ve got a bodymomma," Cannon added. ANI
