(CNN) Nick Cannon seems to be getting the last laugh when it comes to all the banter about his large family.
After posting a cryptic post about big news on the way that led his social media followers to believe his 13th child was on the way, Cannon revealed he was teaming up with fellow comedian Kevin Hart for a game show titled “Who’s Having My Baby? with Nick Cannon.”
“We’re anticipating…a new show on E,” read the caption of a post on his verified Instagram account. “#WhosHavingMyBaby premieres this spring on @eentertainment! @kevinhart4real.”
They must be joking, right?
Turns out they were.
A rep for E! told CNN early Wednesday that there was more to the story, and it has been announced that Cannon and Hart are executive producing and hosting “Celebrity Prank Wars.”
“It’s an all-out war as one celebrity pranks another and the payback begins. Each episode will feature celebrities planning and executing some of the wildest and most viral pranks on each other as hosts Nick Cannon and Kevin Hart pick a winner of Prank War,” according to a press release. “Celebrities are always trying to up the ante as each prank is more elaborate than the next – all with unexpected twists, embarrassing situations and shocking revelations. Celebrities would be smart to stay on guard with these pranksters around town!”
Celebs set to join in the fun include Anthony Anderson, Brie Bella, Nikki Bella, Lil Duval, Big E, Fantasia, Tiffany Haddish, Taraji P. Henson, Lil Jon, Kofi Kingston, Ludacris, Joel McHale, Killer Mike, Chance The Rapper, T-Pain, Robin Thicke, T.I. and Xavier Woods.
Cannon, who has fathered a dozen children to date, and Hart were so deeply invested in their prank promo that they shared a clip from what they called “the mother of all game shows.”
In it, Hart is shown on set with Cannon and a studio audience.
“You’re going to have some contestants who want your baby,” Hart tells Cannon, before a female voiceover announces, “We’re not kidding.”
“Celebrity Prank Wars” premieres Thursday, April 6 at 10pm ET/PT.
