Nick Cannon got his comeuppance from Kevin Hart after pranking the comedian with a llama on his birthday a few weeks ago.

Kevin Hart took to Instagram over the weekend to reveal that some digital billboards that have been cropping up in cities across the country aren’t jokes. They actually do contain Nick Cannon’s real cell phone number. See the post below.

It all started when Kevin Hart revealed that Nick Cannon sent him a llama as a prank for his birthday this year. The Ride Along actor was shocked earlier this month when Cannon sent him the gift noting that becoming a father to another child made him think Hart should have something new and alive too.

In a video on his Instagram at the time, Kevin Hart called the act “childish” and, despite clearly being tickled by the prank, vowed to get Nick Cannon back. Over the weekend, that’s exactly what he did. He shared that billboards put up in Los Angeles, Atlanta and New York directed people to Nick Cannon’s actual cell phone number and encouraged them to call him for any and all fatherhood advice that they may need. Cannon later took to his Instagram Story to note that the prank was indeed real and that he’d begun directing the myriad of fans calling him right to voicemail. However, he shared a video of himself taking a few FaceTime calls from fans before he eventually had enough. 

It makes sense for Kevin Hart to call out Nick Cannon for being an expert on fatherhood matters. Earlier this month, he welcomed his seventh child with model Alyssa Scott. The baby marks Cannon’s fourth child born in the last year alone. He welcomed twins Zion Mixolydian and Zillion Heir, with Abby De La Rosa in June. Meanwhile, he also welcomed daughter Powerful Queen in December with Brittany Bell.

He and Bell share 4-year-old son Golden “Sagon” together and he already has 10-year-old twins who he shares with his ex-wife Mariah Carey. As a result, fans can see why Kevin Hart thought Nick Cannon would be a good person to go to for fatherly advice. 

However, some people criticized Cannon for having that many kids, and not in the playful way that Kevin Hart did. Speaking on the Power 106 Los Angeles radio show recently, hosts JT and Yung Miami joked that the star needs to consider using contraception. However, Cannon noted that not one of his seven kids were accidents. The 40-year-old said that he is indeed having all these kids by design with these women, and noted that he does use protection when he doesn’t want to father a child with someone noting “you only live once.” 

Fortunately for fans of the playful feud between Nick Cannon and Kevin Hart, the former seems to already be teeing up his revenge. When sending eager fans who have seen the billboards to his voicemail, it notes that he’s hoping to enlist them all for his next prank against the Central Intelligence actor. As for what that is, it seems fans of the duo just have to wait and see what the mind behind the infamous llama prank has in store.
