“Mariah’s World” is one big fraud, at least according to Nick Cannon.

The “America’s Got Talent” host stopped by Howard Stern’s radio show and lit into his ex, Mariah Carey.

During the no-holds-barred interview, Cannon claimed that “Mariah’s World” is staged and her hot new relationship with Bryan Tanaka is just one of the storylines.

“First of all, I think the whole reality show is fake. I’m a producer, so you can’t have a well-lit private conversation,” he told Stern. “Like, that s— doesn’t happen. I don’t buy none of that s—.”

Cannon also had a few choice words for his ex’s blossoming romance with Tanaka, one of Carey’s backup dancers.

“They like, wrote that story,” he declared. “That s— is like a soap opera.”

Cannon said despite his feelings towards “Mariah’s World” and her relationship with Tanaka, he and the “Obsessed” singer speak every day.

“She gave me two amazing, beautiful gifts. We talk every day,” he said. “I love Mariah. I’ll never stop loving her.”

Cannon and Carey split in 2014 and finalized their divorce in 2016. The pair are parents to twins, daughter Monroe and son Moroccan.

Although Cannon thinks Tanaka and Carey’s romance is a match made in showbiz, the professional dancer previously said he’s always had a thing for Carey.

“I love her so much,” he told E!.

“Something connected with us back in the day, and there was just a mutual admiration,” he added. “It was set in history that we were gonna be connected some way, some how.”
