Billboard sister publication the Hollywood Reporter spoke today with Nick Cannon, Mariah Carey's husband, about his just extended term as chairman of the teens-only TeenNick network, his hosting duties of NBC's "America's Got Talent," as well as Carey's interest in being an 'Idol' judge on the upcoming 10th season of the show. Here's what he said:

Has Mariah been approached to join the panel?
