Nick Cannon and La La Anthony Hug on Stage in a Funny Throwback Photo

Nick Cannon shared a throwback picture of himself hugging 'Power' actress La La Anthony on stage during on episode of his show on MTV, 'Wild N Out.'

While promoting an episode of MTV's "Wild N Out," Nick Cannon posted a photo of himself on stage and hugging the show's special guest, La La Anthony.

In his caption, he joked about how many of his co-stars were crushing on the "Power" actress and teased, "that look you make when someone says how fine your sister is..."

Nick's joke created an interesting debate in his comment section. One person said their brother has the same reaction. A fellow big brother revealed, "aye, I'm 6'7 350 lbs. They don't ever tell me how fine they think my sister is."

It was hard for one commenter to hide their adoration for La La, and he disagreed with the big brother approach and argued, "bruh, she IS fine though!"

Nick had growing support from protective siblings, with another fan agreeing, "same if a dude looks at my sister wrong he gon catch these hands."

It wasn't long before La La joined the conversation and took all the comments in stride. She expressed her love for Nick and laughed off his joke with laughing face emojis.

Not only is Nick celebrating season 15 of "Wild N Out," he recently had a personal milestone to applaud when he graduated from Howard University.

The television host obtained a bachelor's degree in Criminology and a minor in Africana Studies. During the virtual graduation, he live-streamed his commencement speech.

Nick was dressed for the occasion in his purple gown and cap. However, during an interview on "The View" he admitted that the speech was awkward, he explained:

"Having to communicate without having that instant gratification of physical, present energy, for all of us has been quite unique."

According to BET, Nick enrolled at the university in 2016, he shared his motivation for farthing his education and quoted Nelson Mandela's speech on the power of education.

He also added that he wanted to challenge himself with something that would benefit his personal growth by obtaining a degree.
