NEW: Nick Cannon has tested positive for COVID-19; comedian gets ‘Wild ‘N Out’ back

Nash previously served as a guest panelist on the show last season, which crowned LeAnn Rimes as champion in December. The celebrity musical show gives panelists Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg, Nicole Scherzinger, Ken Jeong and Robin Thicke the chance to guess the celebrity behind elaborate costumes. It ended Season 4 in December as the No. 1 entertainment series, tied with NBC’s “This Is Us,” according to Variety.

In a bit of positive news for the “Love Don’t Cost a Thing” star, ViacomCBS announced it opted to reestablish its relationship with Cannon, Variety reported. The company had severed ties with the showrunner, who brought “Wild ‘N Out” to MTV in 2005, after he made some anti-Semitic comments last summer. The media conglomerate revealed Cannon had apologized and connected with Jewish leaders after making the remarks.

“Nick has not only apologized and taken responsibility for his comments, but he has also worked to educate himself and others through engagement with Jewish leaders and on his platforms,” an MTV Entertainment Group spokesperson told the publication. “Those efforts are of the utmost importance, and that’s why we have invited him to rejoin our team. On a separate note, we just learned that he tested positive for COVID and have reached out to wish him a speedy recovery.”

Production on new episodes of Cannon’s comedy series is expected to resume soon. Old episodes of “Wild ‘N Out” are returning to VH1’s linear schedule this week.
