DDG & Halle Bailey’s Christmas Cheer Causes Speculation Actress Gave Birth: Report

December 24, 2023 by newhiphopnews

When listeners of Chloe and Halle Bailey first found out the sisters were taking a break from their joint musical efforts to pursue solo careers, there was worry we’d never hear them on the same track again. However, those fears quickly dissipated when we heard what they’ve been working on on their own accord, from the elder sibling’s debut album, In Pieces, to Halle’s first single on her own, “Angel.” Besides hitting the studio by herself, the 23-year-old also made her feature film debut in The Little Mermaid, and strengthened her romantic bond with DDG.

Since the summertime, rumours have been swirling about Halle potentially carrying her first child. Despite the non-stop gossip, the Atlanta-born vocalist is choosing to keep this part of her life private. She and DDG are sending out subliminal messages – either on accident or trying to throw us off their scent – but as of Christmas Eve (December 24), we still have no idea if Bailey is a mom-to-be or not. As we move toward 2024, some internet users are preparing to leave speculation about other people’s bodies behind, but before New Years officially strikes, social media sleuths are still trying to piece together the puzzle.

Around 1 AM this morning, the YouTuber went to Twitter to express his gratitude for being alive. “Life is amazing ,” DDG wrote, prompting some to assume he’s feeling the overwhelming joy of fatherhood. Meanwhile, Halle is checking in with her followers too, posting a close-up selfie of her face and reminding the world that “it’s almost Christmas!! .”

While we wait for confirmation on whether Halle Bailey and DDG are parents are not, the latter shared a new club-ready single earlier this month called “She Don’t Play.” While he doesn’t specifically name-drop his other half, it’s possible that the Michigan native’s muse while writing was Bailey, as she’s proven time and time again that she knows how to work a recording booth and a red carpet.

Halle Bailey & DDG Sit Courtside, She Posts Old Bikini Pics To Keep Pregnancy Gossip Quiet

December 18, 2023 by newhiphopnews

If she is pregnant, Halle Bailey still isn’t ready to celebrate with her fans, and that’s okay. Because of the nature of the internet, however, many feel entitled to more information on her relationship with DDG, and whether they’re expecting their first child together. The 23-year-old’s outfits over the past few months initially seemed to be hiding a growing bump on her stomach. Now, though, it’s unclear if she’s just feeding into the gossip and trolling “gullible” followers or actually attempting to keep this part of her life private from the spotlight.

By now, Bailey would be pretty far along if she is pregnant, making her alleged bump more difficult to hide. The Sun is noticing an increase in throwback photos popping up on her profiles, and some think this is a way for The Little Mermaid actress to distract from any current changes people think they’re noticing in her figure this fall. “This was a fun trip ,” Halle wrote over a cross-legged snap of her soaking up the sun in a pink bikini.

Elsewhere, she and DDG stepped out together for a night of cheering on their favourite athletes at Crypto Arena. On Thursday (December 14), the YouTuber and vocalist sat courtside to watch the Warriors and Clippers face off. The former looked fresh in a colourful sweater, beanie, and chain. Meanwhile, Bailey kept a low profile in all black, notably hiding her midsection from view in an oversized puffer jacket.

DDG Drops Catchy Club Ready Single “She Don’t Play”

December 16, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Since 2016, DDG has been committing his focus to his budding rap career. Unfortunately, he does not possess a signature sound yet. At this point, it may or may not be too late to see if anything truly big comes out of this venture. However, he does have the money to throw at great producers and other established artists to bring extra hype to a track.

This year, the Pontiac, Michigan native put out an album back in the middle of July. Maybe It’s Me… is a sort of sequel to It’s Not Me It’s You from 2022. It is a bit of a letdown when a fourth of your record is renditions of “Im Geekin.” However, DDG is still looking to create hits when he can.

Listen To “She Don’t Play” By DDG

That is where “She Don’t Play” comes into vision. The production features heavy hitters such as Hitmaka and OG Parker. It has a catchy groove and hook. But, outside of that, it comes across as a generic club-ready rap track. This may be a reason why so many artists within the genre have spoken up about the lack of originality lately.

What are your initial thoughts on this brand-new single, “She Don’t Play,” by DDG? Is this the best track that he has put out this year, why or why not? If not, do you think this is a reason why some people are getting tired of listening to hip-hop nowadays? Do you think this will land on a forthcoming record? Could this be a song about his girl, Halle Bailey? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your hottest takes in the comments section below. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest breaking news around DDG. Furthermore, stay with us for all of the best song drops throughout the week.

Quotable Lyrics:

You can’t tell her nothin’, she got it
Louis on her luggage, she bought it
Diamonds on her neck and she flawless (Damn)
Only give one chance so be cautious
She got the right to be conceited
I like the way she beat her face, she got on Maybeline (Okay)

Halle Bailey Shares Her Side Of Narrowing Nail Salon Story

November 22, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Earlier this week, a surprise beef sparked online between Halle and Chloe Bailey and a nail salon. It started when Halle’s boyfriend DDG took to Twitter with an inflammatory post accusing the salon of racism. He went even further asking his followers to bomb the salon’s Yelp page with 1-star reviews. Thought he has since deleted the tweet, much of the damage is already done.

The salon owner herself shared a video sharing her side of the story, claiming that Chloe was late for her nail appointment at the salon. She also explained that the backlash has been so dramatic that she’s scared to go to work because of threats made against her. After backlash to the original fan backlash began to mount, Halle Bailey felt the need to clarify her side of the story. She took to Instagram to share an explanation of the events that went down and the role she played in them. Check out her full story below.

In her version of events, Halle explains that she made a reservation at the nail salon for her and Chloe. She claims she made it clear in advance that Chloe would be a bit late for the appointment, which the salon claimed was okay. But when the actual appointment arrived, she said they weren’t okay with Chloe being late anymore. The sequence ended when the salon refused to treat Chloe due to her lateness and the sisters left after they experienced reportedly rude behavior.

In the comments, fans mostly took the side of the salon owners. “Idk I feel bad for the lady. Y’all do be taking stuff too far. The threats and harassment is unnecessary. At the end of the day, she still got a business to run. And she was nice by allowing 15 mins late,” one of the top comments reads. “Being late af for your appointment that YOU set a time and day for is actually insane,” another comment agrees. What do you think of the new details Halle Bailey shared about the recent nail salon drama? Let us know in the comment section below.

Halle Bailey Shares New Selfies Amid Pregnancy Rumors

November 15, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Earlier this month, Halle Bailey became subject to voracious pregnancy rumors online. Shortly after the rumors broke she took to Instagram to show off a particularly flashy Gucci dress. While the post didn’t exactly fuel speculation, it didn’t do anything to slow it down. Neither did the vacation photos she shared with boyfriend DDG which had fans pouring over them looking for a baby bump.

Just a day later, DDG shared a clip to Snapchat that massively increased the speculation among fans. When they slowed it down to frame-by-frame many believed they could see a pregnant Halle in the corner of the screen. DDG ultimately laughed off the rumors describing anyone who was pushing them as a conspiracy theorist. He also said that “the internet is so gullible” which some fans interpreted as even more evidence that he was trying to deny the pregnancy. Check out Halle’s newest Instagram post below.

“minding my business…wbu?” she said in a caption seeming to acknowledge what fans were discussing online. In the comments, fans debated whether they had the right to speculate. “I hope she never tells yall the answers yall looking for,” one of the top comments reads. But other fans came down on the other side. “in ur business tryna see if your pregnant or not” and “I’m not minding my business! When is your due date?” two other comments read.

Even dating back to last month there was plenty of speculation that DDG and Halle could be expecting. Nick Canon even did a joke about DDG welcoming him to the “baby daddy gang” when the rumors first began to emerge. While the joke seemed to be in good faith, it probably didn’t help with the rumors. What do you think of Halle Bailey posting some selfies to Instagram amid her swirling pregnancy rumors? Let us know in the comment section below.

DDG Trolls Halle Bailey Pregnancy Conspiracy Theorists: “The Internet So Gullible”

November 13, 2023 by newhiphopnews

If she is expecting her first child, Halle Bailey has done a pretty impressive job of hiding it so far. Seeing as rumours have been following her and DDG for months now, though, it’s clear that it’s not good enough to keep the gossip at bay. Earlier today (November 13) fans of the couple thought they finally caught the YouTuber slipping by accidentally showing off Bailey’s bump. However, a new tweet from DDG has us questioning whether he and his other half have been messing with our heads this whole time.

The “Elon Musk” artist is often trolling online, usually to rack up more views on his videos. Now that he and The Little Mermaid actress are on a baecation together, social media sleuths have been carefully scouring through every post, looking for any evidence that Bailey has a baby on the way. Before long they found what they were looking for in multiple forms, including reflections of the singer in DDG’s sunglasses that seem to show her growing stomach.

DDG Leaves Us Wondering if He and Halle Bailey are Expecting

As that and other “clues” began circulating on various blogs, some felt sure that the young lovers would have no choice but to finally share the big news. Instead, DDG is brushing off speculation of a slip-up, tweeting, “The internet so gullible ,” this afternoon. We’ve seen other celebs successfully hide almost their entire pregnancy in the past, but still, keeping such a major secret has to be exhausting.

We still can’t say for sure whether or not Halle Bailey and DDG are parents-to-be. What we do know is that if they do have a child it’ll certainly be well taken care of. This is thanks to income from the former’s budding acting career and the latter’s new collection with Boohoo Man.

Halle Bailey & DDG Baecation Photos Feed Into Pregnancy Rumours

November 12, 2023 by newhiphopnews

It’s been months since people began speculating about a potential pregnancy for Halle Bailey, but the Atlanta-born actress still refuses to divulge her secrets with us. Instead, she’s been playing coy by mostly hiding her midsection from the camera. When Bailey has given us a look at her outfits from the front they’ve either been oversized, or images appear to be photoshopped to make her waist look even more slim than usual. Despite some insisting that she’s expecting her first child, the 23-year-old’s refusal to confirm the news has left some room for doubt.

We’ve been Bailey on many red carpets in recent weeks, donning gowns that shield her slim body from revealing too much. This weekend, she and DDG are taking a break from the spotlight with a trip to the tropics, allowing The Little Mermaid star to flaunt her body in a blue bikini, which she proudly did on Snapchat and other platforms. While she gave us a look at her swimsuit and perky bottom from the back, Halle’s refusal to turn around and give us a look at the current state of her stomach is raising eyebrows.

Finally, we see the brunette beauty swimming in the blue ocean, keeping her midsection hidden from view as she smiles for the camera.

Even with all the gossip about a potential baby in store for the couple, Halle Bailey and DDG have chosen to ignore the rumours to keep their private lives just that. They had plenty of fun this past Halloween with their creative costumes, one of which paid homage to Janet Jackson and the late Tupac Shakur.

Earlier this month, Halle Bailey, The Little Mermaid star celebrated for her ethereal voice and captivating performances, finds herself at the heart of swirling pregnancy speculations.

New photos, which The Shade Room first shared, show Bailey walking alongside her boyfriend, DDG. Halle, 21, gracefully donned an oversized gray hoodie and a Louis Vuitton bag over her shoulder. Her stomach appears round, leading fans to believe she is pregnant.

Rumors of Bailey’s pregnancy have swelled since August, with eagle-eyed fans scrutinizing every public appearance for clues. The couple, who made their relationship public earlier this year, has been a subject of fascination since their dating rumors first surfaced in January.

Bailey has maintained a veil of silence regarding the rumors surrounding her potential pregnancy. The actress has strategically chosen to conceal her figure beneath an array of oversized clothing, leaving fans to decipher the visual hints and piece together the puzzle.

It will be her first child with DDG if Bailey is pregnant, 26. The couple went public with their relationship earlier this year after sparking dating rumors last January. Now, fans eagerly await official confirmation or a revelation from the couple themselves.

Halle Bailey & DDG Win Halloween With Tupac & Janet Jackson “Poetic Justice” Tribute

October 29, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Since pregnancy rumours first began swirling around Halle Bailey and DDG this summer, the singer’s silence on the topic led many to believe that the gossip is true. The fact that the 23-year-old has often been wearing oversized dresses to red carpet events in recent months hasn’t done much to calm things down. When she and her beau were walking around Santa Monica in their sweatpants earlier in October, the internet felt ready to make the announcement for the young couple.

As she appeared to have a budding baby bump under her sweatshirt, many have been waiting for Bailey to share some exciting news with her followers. However, the Atlanta native has instead kept us on our toes. Today (October 29), she’s showing off a notably slender figure when revealing her 2023 Halloween costume in tandem with DDG. The pair went as the lead characters from 1993’s Poetic Justice, played by Janet Jackson and the late Tupac Shakur.

Bailey has long been compared to the R&B legend physically, and her vocals are a great match for Jackson’s talent. Surprisingly, social media users even had compliments for the YouTuber, despite the negative reputation he seems to have amongst Bailey’s fanbase. “This kind of wins me over with DDG, but he got one more time to mess it up! Lol,” one user joked. Elsewhere in the comments, fellow artists like Flo Milli and Lakeyah gassed the pair up for their creativity.

As internet sleuths have certainly already noted, this now marks the second IG upload from Halle Bailey with no discernable signs of a baby bump. Of course, it’s entirely possible she and DDG planned ahead and took photos for Halloween before her body changed too much, but still, we won’t know for sure if the actress is headed toward motherhood until she tells us so herself. Do you think Bailey and her beau have what it takes to become parents so early on in life? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news.
