Cannon recalled the moment on the comedian's late-night show, which was recently revisited on The Hidden Side of Johnny Carson" on CBS' "Sunday Morning."
"I rattled him, and I love that," she told People magazine. "We love it when we rattle men who aren't usually rattled, don't we?"
The two had kept their relationship under wraps when dating. "He loved it," Cannon noted. "He loved it. We used to go to restaurants, and they'd shut down the entire restaurant for him."
"He was a special man," she added. "I've known a lot of special men. And there's more to come."

The award-winning actress did commit to a few men.
Cannon was married to Cary Grant from 1965 to 1968. The two welcomed a daughter together, Jennifer Grant. Cannon and Jennifer worked together on Britbox's "Archie" in 2023, which followed the story of Grant's life.
For Jennifer, it was "healing" to see her parents' love story unfold.
"That’s something I wasn’t privy to," she previously told Fox News Digital. "Their relationship sadly fell apart, but I can understand why. They were such different people. Mom’s just wild and says anything that comes to her mind. She’s very free-spirited and fun. My dad was very reserved, quiet and private. So, one can see why they might be attracted to one another. But living together day to day? That wasn’t going to happen. So seeing their love affair was lovely."
Grant passed away at the age of 82 in 1986 after suffering a stroke.
Cannon also married Stanley Fimberg in 1985 before divorcing in 1991.
