As the host of the hit “Masked Singer,” Nick Cannon takes it as a compliment when people call him corny.

“I’m always focused on making the best business move, so it’s funny to me,” Cannon told us. “I always ask people to describe ‘corny’ … The people you consider corny are the most successful, the most nonproblematic and the ones that get all the girls. So I like when people call me corny. Nobody likes being in the trenches. So you can call me a square all day.”

The show airs Wednesdays on Fox.
