Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon have been targeted in several schemes designed to capitalize on their newfound parenthood.
New parents Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey should still be blissed out on baby joy with less than two weeks passing since their twins? birth, but the couple is reeling from a shocking accusation.
?The Child Protective Services were called with allegations that there was some drinking and drugs and all that going on while in the hospital,? Cannon revealed during a pretaped appearance on Thursday?s ?Piers Morgan Tonight.?
The babies, daughter Monroe and son Moroccan, were born April 30 and remain hospitalized with Carey, 42.
Cannon, 30, said the false rumor began when ?a nurse suggested to my wife that if you drink Guinness ? the yeast improves breast-feeding.?
?I don?t know if someone overheard that,? he explained, ?but then they were saying that my wife was drinking beer and all this stuff.?
And it culminated with a visit from a CPS worker, who approached Cannon in one of the hospital?s hallways on Tuesday.

?When I spoke to the person from the Child Protective Services, I was like, ?This is ridiculous,?? Cannon recalled.
The 92.3 NOW morning show host said the incident proves that ?people will do anything to try to conjure up a story.?
?Even to have to deal with that, even my wife in the state she?s in, and we?re in the hospital, and to even have to think of someone possibly wanting to investigate your children,? he said.
Cannon said the hospital stay has also been plagued by intrusive photographers ?actually in the hospital posing as different people, or real employees trying to get pictures of our kids.?
It?s ?really sad when you think about people trying to make a buck off of newborn babies,? he said.
And while the new dad realizes that some believe he should ?deal? with these kinds of incidents because he?s famous, he only accepts that line of thinking to an extent.
?I?m more disappointed in society ? than having to be it?s because we?re famous,? he explained. ?It?s just that people would even go to those lengths to even kind of do something to a family at such a beautiful time in their life.?
