"America's Got Talent" host Nick Cannon was in Los Angeles yesterday and spilled the beans on his impending fatherhood duties and more.

To kick off its launch in the United States after years of overseas success, Kellogg's Crunchy Nut cereal attempted to set the Guinness World Record for the largest cuckoo clock.

Cannon joined the fun and was on-hand to lead the crowd in a countdown to the first chime of the clock at noon PST on Saturday January 29th at the famous intersection of Hollywood and Highland.

Nick Cannon also talked about wife Mariah Carey's pregnancy with their twins. Nick and Mariah are not going with nannies, they want to be hands on with their twins, due late April/early May.

Speaking at the event, Nick says they went nursery shopping yesterday and are planning for these special rooms in both New York and Los Angeles.

According to Cannon, Mariah is doing most of decorating as she "classier" than he is and when pushed about color schemes, Nick says, "Let's just say it's green!"  The event tied in nicely with Nick and Mariah, who are both big cereal eaters.  No high protein diets here, as they love eating it all day long and have tons at home. Mariah's been craving it and Nick says "I love to bring her breakfast in bed."

The Kellogg's cuckoo clock is chiming every hour on the hour for 24 hours. With every hour's chime, actor Brad Norman emerges from the clock to perform a skit celebrating a place in the world where it's currently morning to bring the campaign idea - "It's Morning Somewhere" - to life.

Crunchy Nut cereal is one of those good anytime cereals, on yogurt or ice cream, as a trail mix snack or straight up breakfast in a bowl, versatile and healthy.

Additionally, Nick also shared he is rooting for the Steelers in Sunday's big game since they beat his team, the Jets.  Nick is also coming out with an album this year and trying his hand at stand-up with a comedy special in Vegas.
