Easily the best song Cher Lloyd has recorded to date, ‘With Ur Love’ is finally receiving the US single treatment.

Initially announced as the follow-up to American breakout hit ‘Want You Back’, the track was bumped in favour of the so-so ‘Oath’ which did all of nothing on the charts.

Already a Top 5 hit in the UK upon its initial release in 2011 (when it served as the second single from the 19 year old’s debut album ‘Sticks + Stones’), the Shellback produced cut has been retooled for its latest US roll-out. Indeed, erased is first feature Mike Posner, who is replaced by Juicy J (from Three Six Mafia).

Recent years have seen Nick Cannon become increasingly vocal – particularly about his superstar wife Mariah Carey and their adorable family.

As such, it was little surprise that his visit to Power 105.1’s Breakfast Club this week to promote the return of MTV’s Wildin’ Out saw that Mr Carey’s other half and their home-life discussed in earnest.

In all fairness to the budding media mogul, he clearly has much going on for himself individually. However, one has to wonder what ol’ Mimi thinks of him discussing their sex life. For, despite warmly informing that they “waited” until being married before being intimate, such vivid details aren’t the sort Mariah is noted for spilling about her private life – now or pre-Nick.

What’s more, if the talk of former flames such as Kim Kardashian and Christina Milian left a so-so taste in our mouths, we can only imagine what his Mrs thinks.

Moral of the story? When making that American’s Got Talent money, it makes sense speak like you’re making…America’s Got Talent money!
