12 celebrities battling with serious medical conditions – this will shock you! (With Pictures)

7. Nick Cannon

Nick Cannon is quite a busy man. From working on Nickelodeon to having his own line of headphones to his acting roles and we forget his set of twins from his marriage to Mariah Carey, Nick Cannon has not let his Lupus get the best of him. In 2012, Cannon was hospitalized to treat minor kidney failure. A month later, Cannon was hospitalized again after a pulmonary embolism. In March 2015, Cannon said his kidney problems were a result of Lupus and has publicly announced his diagnosis with the disease. Cannon continues to work on television as the host of America’s Got Talent and he recently enrolled to Howard University and is part of the 2020 graduating class.
