Nick Cannon hasnt ruled out a reconciliation with his ex-wife, Mariah Carey , but hes aware that rekindling their romance eight years after a highly publicized divorce may be a bit of a pipe dream.

In a joint E! News interview with his We Playin Spades co-host Courtney Bee that aired Tuesday, Cannon said hed absolutely get back together with Carey, with whom he shares 13-year-old twins , Moroccan and Monroe.

[It would] be stupid if I wouldnt, the actor and comedian said, before winking at one of his exs hit songs. We belong together.

Still, he acknowledged ruefully that she dont want me.

Cannon and Carey first met at the 2005 Teen Choice Awards. However, they werent romantically linked in the media until about three years later, when Cannon appeared in the music video for Careys 2008 single Bye Bye. In May of that year, it was confirmed theyd secretly tied the knot in the Bahamas.
