I think it follows the same pattern as
It's none of your business.

Thank you, Amy and Torsten for your valuable comments!
One thing more struck me right now! :roll:
What about affair?
- It's none of my affair! - It's none of my affairs!

Hi Tom
I'd say "It's none of my affair" would so unusual that you shouldn't use it.
"It's not my concern" is probably more common than "It's none of my concern."
And "It's none of my businsess" is the most common.
