Nick Cannon came out in defence of his ex-wife Mariah Carey's disastrous New Year's Eve performance, saying despite the glitches she tried to work through it.
The 'America's Got Talent' host, during an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, also made some jokes.
"You know me, I'm a conspiracy theorist. I think the government did that! They set her up! That was a distraction!," he joked initially.
"Anyone who knows about performing and having inner-ears, things like that can go wrong on live television... So when there's people in your ear saying things and stuff, I think she got a little flustered."
The musician, who shares twins Moroccan Cannon and Monroe Cannon with Carey, was full of praise for Carey for the way she handled the situation.
"Being the diva that she is, she said, 'I'm just going to walk around and pose for 7 minutes and like Ryan Seacrest said, she can do no wrong. So she worked through it.
