Nick & Selita in March 2007 (Wireimage)Another Hollywood couple for the books – Nick Cannon and Selita Ebanks called off their engagement and have officially broken up, according to Ebanks’ rep and People magazine:
“Selita and Nick are taking a break to focus on their careers but still very much love each other and remain the best of friends,” says her rep, Melissa Raubvogel.
The breakup comes just five months after the Drumline actor made a proposal that lit up New York’s Times Square – literally – as he asked Ebanks to marry him with the help of a jumbotron.
By August, Cannon, 26, was more measured when it came to nailing down wedding details, telling PEOPLE, “We haven’t really talked about a lot of that stuff. You’ve got to take it slow.”
As for Ebanks, 24, she said earlier in the summer that the pair had some fundamental differences between their ideal ceremony. “He’s all about the bling and having a big wedding. Me? I’m all about the courthouse.”
Word in the blog-o-sphere, Nick was already seen being cozy with “Fell The Noise” star Zulay Henao at the Hennessy Artistry New York concert last night. I actually liked these two as a “couple”.
I knew this was coming!
First! They were so cute to me. I’m kinda sad:(
I’m blown…I really liked them together too, they seemed so happy…and he talked about how much he had grown since he’d been with her : (
Damn, that’s bad. They looked good together. But, who says they can’t focus on their careers when they are together?
wow… i don’t believe in ♥ anymore!!!
this is wacktastic….
i wonder how christina milian is feeling right now…. i hope he returned that super expensive ring!!!
WELL THIS IS NOT A SUPRISE WE AL KNOW NICK IS AFRAID OF COMMITMENT
big deal!!
damn… Nick stays losing
they were cute but I guess we can’t progress to calling them a unified name such Nickelita Canks …whatev
Her face looks weird in this pic…I think she needs a two piece and large biscuit smothered in gravy to fill out those hollow cheeks- I am making myself hungry talking about food. night y’all!
What a Big Surprise!!!! NOT!!!
HOLLYWOOD LOVE BABY…
It’s no shock at all. People these days are always jumping into things they are not ready for especially marriage. Beyonce and Jay-z are a good example of taking things slow. Nick Cannon can’t settle down with no one. Both of them need to sit down and shut up. I was going to be very surprised if they got married.
IT WAS ALL ABOUT PUBLICITY FOR HER I BELIEVE
aw thats too bad.
…next…
I thought it was about publicity for the both of them. I mean they were “together” for a couple of months before he did that spectacle of a proposal.
Yeah not a surprise at all…
aww nooo,i thought she was good for him ,
AWWW….O WEL… NXT!
Sorry to hear it. I couldn’t imagine living my life in the Public Eye.
I called it a while ago too. When I saw that picture of them at that fancy smancy party. Everybody else was dressed in there best outfits inc. Selita. Then here come Nick w/ those crazy bright non matching colors on, a hoodie & tennis shoes. my words ‘He tryin to get that girl to break-up w/ him.’
how in the hell u gotta take it slow..he shoulda thought about takin it slow b4 he proposed to her..how in the hell u just realize that your careers are more important..so dang on retarded…oh well forget them..
Did anyone teally think they would get married. If so I am getting married too. He is like 12 and she is young too, so why would this have worked???? Anyone say Brittany…
Not surprised one iota. His proposal came a bit too soon – wait at least 4 seasons and then see if you feel the same about that person.
i knew that angel was a homewrecker, with her lucious lady lumps: girl, the wya you write makes a nicca turn loose.
angel: holla at ya boy, i wanna turn ya out you big ol swinepool of love
what a shame……………….?
Taking a break because…blah blah blah…Nick has to date other women.
Yawn…….
I guess the publicity stunt is over
Nick got played. I think they really liked each other, but his butt start falling hard and fast-then he proposes. He’s young, cute, and has a bright future, I wouldn’t sleep on him, as for her….I think she played him, she’s pretty and all, but I never thought Nick was her type.
That proposal was nothing but a plublicity stunt the things people do for
attention. Nick is a corn ball!
Karma is a you know what. The way he did Christina. It sad they did seem a bit rushed.
Damn, I should have bet money on this! Damn I’m good!
I agree with #27 It never seemed like she was head over heels for nick the only time she would show PDA was when they were on the red carpet she just used him to keep her name in the limelight cause remember she denied they were engaged when he first popped the question.
Concur with # 25
My mouth just dropped to the floor in shock….
Sike, that was as predictable as Solange and her divorce, Z list celebrities will try anything to be in the spotlight. Shame on it all.
Nick Cannon cant keep a woman.. he’s such a corn ball anyways/
I hate to say it…but something told me this relationship wouldn’t workout*(if this is TRUE). I wish them both the best. Relationships ARE WORK and it requires a lot of “give and take”.
I am on the “not surprised” band wagon….
I already saw this one coming…. Nick Cannon must have a serious issue with maintaining relationships !!!!
It’s a good thing that they ended now instead of in divorce court. They were a cute couple but you never what’s really going on in these celebrity relationships.
WOW. Who did not see this one coming?
I don’t know why women fall for nick cannon he is such a cornball. He probably cheated like he always does. Then there are the stupid women who will actually date him, knowing he just broke out of a serious relationship 2 days ago. SMDH
This is to be expected considering he just met her THIS YEAR!! They met in Miami Superbowl weekend and was talking about marriage two months into it. As you get to know people and time passes sometimes you realize they’re not who you thought they were.T
dayum…another one bites the dust
i can never take Nick seriously..
i just remember when he used to play LaTanya on All That..
when he nd Kenan was in drag..
I knew this was coming when a reporter asked Nick when the wedding would take place and he said he didn’t know. He said that you can’t rush into these things and that he had done his part which was proposing so basically he was thru with it.
I think it was all a stunt anyway. Nick Cannon is not ready to be anybody’s husband.
Selita will find someone else and Nick probably already has.
GOOD-THAT’S WHAT HE GETS FOR PUTTING CHRISTINA MILIAN ON BLAST STATING THAT HE AND HER WERE NEVER AN ITEM AND WERE ONLY FRIENDS WITH BENEFITS-
HE INTENTIONALLY TRIED TO HURT HER WITH HIS NEW CHICK-AND I BET SHE LEFT HIM AND NOT VICE VERSA, IF YOU ASK ME HE LOOKS STUPID BECAUSE HE WAS OBVIOUSLY IN DEEP FROM THE START SEEING THAT HE PROPOSED AND ALL-
NOT A GOOD LOOK NICK AND MAYBE NOW YOU’VE GOTTEN A DOSE OF YOUR OWN MEDICINE-KARMA’S A B*TCH
AND I DON’T WANT TO HEAR ABOUT HE’S MOVED ON ALREADY OR HE ISN’T HURT-HELL IT TAKE SOME MEN YEARS B4 THEY PROPOSE SO HE HAS TO BE HURT THAT IT ENDED AND THE WHOLE WORLD KNOWS ABOUT IT-JUST LIKE HIS DISS TO CHRISTINA-LOL
“Selita and Nick are taking a break to focus on their careers but still very much love each other and remain the best of friends,” says her rep, Melissa Raubvogel.
*Bull Sh*T*…I’m tired of stars saying this bull…You’re not still very much in love or you would still be together….let’s be real.
OKAY… NEW this was going to happen when he first annonced he was getting married and i found out to who i said “WHAT DA’ HELL” there was no SPARK to these two as a couple i could not Dig or get into them at all… every picture, every time they were in public eye i just was like HUH’ what…
WITH christina there was a SPARK and they were more of a couple that you said they made a CUTE COUPLE and you liked to see there interviews on the red carpet together, and there pictures together were nice and you wanted to read about them in magazines as a couple!
Why is this no surprise to me? She has the aura of a gold-digging wench.
Watch her hook up with someone more prominent, much richer, and probably white.
OH GIRL HAS A CAREER ALREADY AS A MODEL-HE PUT HIMSELF ON BLAST BY PROPOSING TO HER AND GUSHING ABOUT BEING IN LOVE WITH HER-IF ANYTHING SHE MADE THIS NEGRO LOOK GOOD AND NOT VICE VERSA
HE PLAYED CHRISTINA AND HE END UP GETTING PLAYED-KARMA POINT BLANK
NICK WAS TRYING TO LAND HIM A VICTORIA SECRET MODEL AND MAKE HER WIFEY-JUST FOR BRAGGING RIGHTS & THESE TWO BECAME AN ITEM WHEN SHE STARTED TO GARNER RECOGNITION FOR BEING A VICTORIA SECRET MODEL-IT DOESN’T TAKE A ROCKET SCIENTIST TO FIGURE OUT WHO WAS PURSUING WHO
I never thought they looked “right” together……and she’s younger than him? Wow…she always looked older. This seemed like a publicity stunt …for him…he’s always about showing off. Too bad…so sad.
I knew this wouldn’t last. I truly believe they did get married in LV, the “engagement” was the cover up, and next year we will find out that the “breakup” was actually the divorce. I thought it was very impulsive, and I have a feeling that Nick is gonna end up back with Christina Milian.
I don’t care too much for Nick Cannon. He seems like the type that fronts and sh*t all the time. Like even if he didn’t have nothing he would still lie and say he does. Like the dude in the hood thats always lying on his D*CK. Talking about who he phucked and he still a virgin. Or how he paid and he rocking his cousins shit or something.
Nick was sprung and he rushed things (I think he proposed twice – Las Vegas & NY…dayum she must have the good good!) , and she wanted to take things slow…This shouldn’t be a surprise.
Thank you #49 Bailey…my thoughts exactly. I’m so happy Selita isn’t with Nick anymore…she is too gorgeous and mature for his corny-ass. Seriously, Nick seems fake as hell…he had some nerve to play C.Milian out and I’m glad Selita saw the light before it was too late.
Also what good publicity was she getting from being with Nick? In my eyes it was a major down-grade for a Top Model diva such as herself…his ass was certainly the lucky one in that relationship.
What? No, please say it ain’t so. I knew this was coming. Christina Milan word of advice you were right about Nick however they all turned on you. Started bad mouthing you when he is untrustworthy. Christina stay with the real man Dre, besides Nick is cute but he is no Dre. Your damn man is so fine.+
Do you remember that Nick was dating Kim K before this engagement. When he broke off from Kim he needed to replace her quick to get the media to disassociate them. That is when the no name Selita came about. The engagement was false fromt the beginning.
Who cares! like they were going to stay married for the next 50 years.
Not surprised.
YAWN
WHO IS SELITA AGAIN???
