Nick Cannon took to his blog Tuesday to fire back at bloggers who have suggested that he's broke and is being sued by the jeweler that he bought wife Mariah Carey's wedding ring from.

A rep for Cannon verified to MTV News on Wednesday (March 18) that Cannon's comments were written by him.

"I guess yesterday was 'Hate Nick Cannon Day'! Hahaha!" he wrote. "The Blogosphere had my name ringing all over the Google alerts. That is why I am so thankful to have my own site and blog so I can give y'all the real. If it wasn't the madness about my e-mails to people, or more pregnancy rumors, it was this craziness on the oh so credible, BOSSIP about me being broke and being sued by my jeweler! Ridiculous! I just got like 3 new major multi-million dollar deals in the last 2 months. And I ain't even finish yet... But now I'm broke, okay!"

Multiple blogs posted information earlier this week that Cannon's financial affairs were suffering. The items suggested he's being sued for half a million dollars for Carey's unpaid wedding band. Also, according to "sources" the gossip blogs are attributing the information to, Cannon has settled the lawsuit by agreeing to pay installments on the ring. Cannon dismissed all the rumors.

"Where do these people get this stuff? First off, I wish my wife's ring did only cost $500,000, that would have been a deal!," he wrote. "Do your research and you will see how much I really paid for it. I don't like to disclose or brag about those things because it's not really anyone's business but it was quite public what I PAID. Mostly because when my wife and I first got married people were lying and saying the ring was used or that I re-gifted it! LMFAO. So after we cleared that up, almost a year later they come with some more ring drama. Well since my anniversary is coming up I think I might just have to by a whole new joint for my beautiful wife, just to STUNT! And as for the payment plan thing, I wish that was true or possible!! Sh--, it's a recession, I would take a lay-away plan in a minute! Hahhaahaa!!"

Cannon ended his blog post on a serious note, by declaring his love for Carey and his reason for treating her to such fancy jewelry.

"But one thing that is true, I would spend every last dime that I have ever made on my wife, she deserves to be showered with extraordinary gifts and as long as I live I will spend all my money on her and never touch a dime of hers," Cannon wrote.

Cannon and Carey celebrate their first wedding anniversary next month. The pair were married April 30 last year after a whirlwind courtship.
