The Little Mermaid actress Halle Bailey and “Way Too Petty” rapper DDG’s relationship have been online detective’s favorite hobby. Due to the unwanted attention and often negative criticism they’ve accrued, the pair have attempted to throw the public off their trail. They even appear to have fed reporters claims that they had broken up.

Eventually they made it clear that they were, in fact, still an item with a string of baecation photos across their respective social media pages. Another lingering rumor was that the couple was expecting their first child. DDG attempted to dismiss the online batter by recording a trolling video featuring a baby doll and even a younger family member. However, on Saturday, January 6, after weeks of speculation, the pair confirmed that they did in fact welcome their first child together.

“Even though we’re a few days into the new year, the greatest thing that 2023 could have done for me was bring me my son,” wrote Bailey in an Instagram post. “Welcome to the world, my halo 🥰👼🏽 ✨the world is desperate to know you 😉🤣♥.”

“My biggest blessing by far 👶🏽❤ son son.. never been so in love 🥹 baby halo,” penned DDG in an upload of his own.

The picture shared by the first-time parents showed the newborn grasping onto their fingers, with a custom engraved gold bracelet revealing his name.

DDG Addressed The Halle Bailey Baby Rumors With An Epic Troll

One of the weirder trends that has developed online in the past few months has been an unofficial “pregnancy watch” of sorts focusing on singer-actress Halle Bailey and her boyfriend, rapper-YouTuber DDG. While Bailey’s been on promo tour for her new film The Color Purple, fans have had a field day speculating about pregnancy rumors, deciding on Christmas that this mystery child had finally been born thanks to a livestream in which Halle wore form-fitting pajamas revealing no baby bump.

DDG decided to address those fans, showing them the alleged baby via Snapchat. The only catch: the “baby” he posed with was a doll — his way of trolling people for caring too much about celebrities’ lives. During the stream, he vented, “I don’t know why people is so invested in what I got going on or what we got going on. Mind your business. Touch some grass. Go do a cartwheel in the backyard or something. It’s weird. I genuinely don’t be understanding. Why do y’all be so invested in people that don’t know you? Whatever is going on in my life or her life is not going to change yours. Let’s focus on ourselves [in] 2024. Let’s try to lock in ourselves, not other people. Please, mind your business.”

Halle Bailey Baby Inquiries Annoy DDG During Snapchat Q&A

As millions of people around the world raise questions about whether Halle Bailey and DDG are parents or not, the young couple is staying tight-lipped on their situation. Even if the 23-year-old was expecting this year, that didn’t stop her from stepping outside to attend events and award shows, or from visiting the stunning tropics with her man ahead of the holiday season. Just a few days ago, they celebrated their second anniversary together, and internet sleuths couldn’t help but notice that Bailey called her man “daddy.”

This is just the latest in a series of clues suggesting DDG is a new father. Others include a crying baby heard in the back of his recent YouTube video, as well as a present with the name Halo on it, which the “Elon Musk” artist has said he would love to name a child. Even if he is basking in the joy of expanding his family, DDG doesn’t want to talk about it with fans quite yet. He made this abundantly clear during a Snapchat Q&A session, where he clearly set some boundaries with those interrogating him about Bailey’s rumoured pregnancy.

DDG Refuses to Answer Some of His Fans’ Burning Questions

“Bro, I don’t know why people [are] so invested in what I got going on or what we got going on… Mind your business,” the Michigan native replied in an annoyed tone of voice. “So invested in people who don’t know you. I ain’t gon’ lie, like, I love my supporters and s**t, but in real life, bruh, I don’t know y’all. That’s just the truth. You guys, just let me live my life… Whatever’s going on in my life or her life, bro, is not going to change yours.”

Amid the rumours about Halle Bailey potentially giving birth to a baby boy, her big sister, Chloe, is in the news for shocking reasons of her own. After a night out at the club this holiday season, the In Pieces songstress was spotted leaving with “Rack City” hitmaker Tyga.

Halle Bailey Twerks In “The Color Purple” Costume, Bonds With DDG During Sweet Snuggle Sesh

Halle Bailey’s feature film debut in The Little Mermaid was one of the biggest moments for Black women in the industry in recent memory. The Atlanta native did an incredible job channelling Ariel for her first big role, and even navigated her way through racist criticism with tact and grace throughout filming and her premiere press run. Following that, Bailey continues to flex her acting chops in the recently released movie, The Color Purple, which also stars H.E.R. and Ciara, among others.

The historical project is only just now hitting theatres, and as her fans check it out, the “Angel” singer is giving them a look at what went down behind the scenes on set. In the video below, we see Bailey in costume as Nettie, confidently throwing it back for Snapchat in her slave dress. “Lmaooo [what the hell] was I doing 😂😂😂,” she wrote over top of the clip. “Nettie cuttin’ up between filming.”

Elsewhere on her social media pages, we’ve been seeing plenty of Bailey with her beau, DDG, lately. There’s major speculation that the multi-talent secretly gave birth to their first baby during the holidays, though they continue to play coy and avoid confirming anything (for now). Instead, Halle is happily showing off a heartfelt snuggle session with the YouTuber, during which he unknowingly had her in a headlock while peacefully snoring away. “I’m the world’s best cuddler,” she captioned that one.

Halle Bailey Calls DDG “Daddy” While Celebrating Second Anniversary With Lavish Dinner & Gifts

When we think of recording artists who are also notorious internet trolls, figures like 50 Cent and Lil Nas X quickly come to mind. However, Halle Bailey is proving she can keep up with the men this year as gossip about her alleged pregnancy has been running rampant since the summer. After several clues came up throughout the holiday season, a growing number of fans are certain that the 23-year-old quietly welcomed her first child with DDG. From a crying baby in the background of their holiday vlog to Bailey suddenly showing off her stomach in real time again, the evidence in support of the young couple starting a family continues to grow.

Of course, the “Do It” hitmaker and her man owe us nothing, but still, some feel entitled to personal details about Bailey’s life. As she refuses to address the situation, the fashionista is instead teasing her Snapchat followers by flaunting the stunning jewelry DDG got her for their second anniversary. “Daddy iced me out,” Halle told the camera as her man gave us a full look at how he spoils his other half.

Later on in the evening, the Atlanta native showed off a delectable selection of desserts for her and DDG to dine on. Despite them all looking delicious, Bailey made it known that, to her, the “Elon Musk” artist is the only sweet treat that matters. As she playfully squeezes his cheek in the clip above, he takes her hand in his and sweetly holds it, showing how affectionate their bond truly is after so much time together. Bailey’s fans have been critical of her beau in the past, but she seems happier than ever by his side.

Halle Bailey’s stylist was working overtime in 2023, not only making The Little Mermaid actress look incredible at all her feature film debt’s premiere events but also potentially shielding her baby bump from the public eye. She and DDG are both on our annual best dressed artists of the year list, and you can check out everyone else who caught our eye with their style at the link below.

Whether Halle Bailey and DDG have a newborn to care for or not, they’re certainly feeling the festive spirit this Christmas.

At this point, Bailey is well aware of the rumours surrounding her and her uterus since the summer, though she continues to avoid addressing them. Instead, The Little Mermaid actress is letting her body do the talking as she bakes holiday cookies with her man.

In the video below, Bailey struggles to get up from the table where she and DDG are cutting gingerbread into shapes. Her slow movements, grunt, and grip on the black surface are just a few clues social media sleuths are using to back up their theory she just game birth.

Beyonce taught her well, I f**k with it,” one person wrote in @theshaderoom’s comments. The mother of three somehow manages to be everywhere and nowhere all at once, especially keeping her family life as far away from the spotlight as possible. Seeing as the “Halo” hitmaker has long been a mentor to Halle and her sister, it wouldn’t be surprising for her to follow in Bey’s footsteps by setting boundaries with fans.

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

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

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.

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

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.

You can’t tell her nothin’, she got it

Diamonds on her neck and she flawless (Damn)
Only give one chance so be cautious
She got the right to be conceited

Halle Bailey Shares Her Side Of Narrowing Nail Salon Story

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.

Halle Bailey Tells Her Story

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.
