DDG Might’ve Shaded Halle Bailey’s Parenting With Twitter Like, Fans Theorize

by

DDG and Halle Bailey are Hollywood and the music industry’s newest parents, and some fans think there’s already some tension. Moreover, folks spotted a recent tweet that he liked on the social media platform that suggests he thinks there’s a division between the quality of their parenting skills. “Men care about the upbringing of children more than women do,” the message read, and some fans weren’t happy at all about this. Not only is it a debatable statement, but fans think the rapper should be doing a more overt job of supporting the singer and actress on social media.

Furthermore, this is probably going to cause a lot of debate among fans on whether this even means what they think it means. After all, DDG’s entitled to like whatever he wants to like on Twitter, and he could see it as something that doesn’t relate to Halle Bailey specifically. Still, we can’t deny that it’s not the best look, even if it’s the result of overt digging for juicy and scandalous developments. The two just popped out for the Grammys after a lot of time at home; let them go back to the celebrity world in peace.

DDG’s New Liked Tweet Sparks Speculation About Halle Bailey Dynamic

“I’m a dad. I’m a dad, y’all,” DDG said in a YouTube video about his new bundle of joy with Halle Bailey. “I have a son, I have a baby boy. He’s a newborn. He was actually born last year, [but] we were just waiting on the right time to basically break the news or whatever. It’s been a lot of speculation,” he added, joking that fans should take up “detective work” given all their rumors about it. “It’s a blessing and I love him so much. I barely know him and he barely know me. We barely know each other. I just love him so much and it’s just a different type of feeling.”

Meanwhile, Chlöe’s musical partner revealed that her boo actually came up with their baby’s name: Halo. Surely, there will be a lot more to unpack when it comes to this new phase of their life. Hopefully there’s more support between them than what Twitter would have you believe. On that note, stay up to date on HNHH for the latest news and updates on DDG and Halle Bailey.

Halle Bailey Is Among This Year’s Honorees For The Essence Black Women In Hollywood Awards

In an already major year for Halle Bailey, she will be among the honorees at the Essence Black Women in Hollywood Awards. Method Man will be hosting the event, as Bailey, actress Danielle Brooks, Starz’s original programming president Kathryn Busby, and screenwriter Nkechi Okoro Carroll.

“The intersection of joy and justice is where community thrives,” Essence Ventures’ President and CEO, Caroline Wanga, shared in a statement. “We don’t ever need to diminish our collective power and accomplishments; due to the work we are still doing to exist equitably. The past year tested this intersection within one of our most sacred cultural realms when the entertainment industry faced the gridlock of stakeholder value and WORTH.

“In parallel, the assets that the industry creates as a direct infusion of joy that propels our community through the depth and breadth of life were stagnated as a clear and just outcome stayed uncertain,” she added. “While parts of the incongruence have stabilized, there is still significant work to be done to create sustainable change.”

The Essence event will be held at the Academy Of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles on March 7. The ceremony aims to continue to “highlight the strength, grace, and influence of Black women in the entertainment industry,” as this year’s theme is “Radiant Power.”

As they did with Rihanna in 2023, fans frantically played detective to determine if Halle Bailey was expecting her first child. For months, the “Angel” singer managed to avoid discussing future plans with her boyfriend DDG. That all changed on January 6, when the first-time parents confirmed the birth of their son, Halo.

Now that the news is out, Bailey has begun sharing content she recorded while pregnant. But some aren’t particularly fond of the light-hearted material, given how secretive Bailey had been. Some have even called her out for gaslighting and lying to her followers when they asked if she was with child. Well, Bailey has had enough. On January 28, Bailey took to X (formerly Twitter) to slam folks for pushing the narrative.

“I never lied or even said anything about it, honey,” she wrote. “Making a joke about my nose was the farthest I went. I’ll never understand why you are mad i protected my own peace, wouldn’t you do the same? And I’m gonna share my pics now if I want to because my son is here safely. If you don’t wanna see it, just keep scrolling, baby LOL. God bless you! 😘♥”

Bailey previously revealed that she stirred clear from social media to maintain her sanity while pregnant. Her sister, Uproxx cover star Chlöe, echoed this decision and encouraged her to enjoy the pregnancy offline to avoid people’s opinions online.

Halle Bailey Reveals Photoshopped Pregnancy Pictures Hiding Her Belly

Halle Bailey tried her best to hide her pregnancy with DDG for privacy, although fans still cracked the code eventually. Nonetheless, it’s still curious and impressive to see what lengths she and her team went to in order to shroud her image in secrecy. Moreover, the R&B star recently took to social media (specifically Snapchat) to recall a photoshoot in which they Photoshopped her belly out to lead folks astray. Unfortunately, her remarks don’t reveal who did this process for her, and a lot of fans believe that they deserve props for their successful efforts, even if other public appearances are what led fans to this theory.

“lmaooo do y’all remember seeing this pics on my insta?” Halle Bailey captioned a video of the photoshoot. “we photoshopped out my belly [laughing emojis].” Of course, she’s sharing a lot about her post-pregnancy body right now, so it’s only natural she would want to look back on her journey up to this point. After all, the Georgia native dealt with a lot of comments on her figure during the heights of her pregnancy speculation, and the truth behind it didn’t make people’s assumptions any easier to deal with. Some were harsher than others, but they let her know early on that there was a lot of interest in her love life.

Furthermore, a lot of people seem offended by Halle Bailey’s decision to keep her personal life private. For example, many folks outwardly declined to give her requested advice on breast pumping because they find it hypocritical considering that she didn’t make her journey public. Many fans came to the 23-year-old’s defense concerning this, justifying her right to share whatever she wants to share. It’s a bit of an odd debate to have of a celebrity, but we can understand both sides of the aisle given their detachment from her personal life.

Meanwhile, with new music on the way from Chlöe X Halle, we’re looking forward to this new phase of their career. They developed their individual paths a lot last year in many different areas, and to see them reunite will be a treat. Hopefully this is something that the duo doesn’t keep secret for much longer.

Uproxx cover star Chlöe Bailey did a recent interview with People Magazine, where she discussed her sister Halle’s pregnancy and how they tried to hide it until she was ready to share her baby with the world. As Chlöe put it, it was the “best kept secret ever.”

“We just ignore it,” she shared. “I would tell her, like, take social media off your phone, you know, I keep all her other secrets. So this was just another one in the books.”

Chlöe herself is also “on cloud nine” about the fact that she’s now an aunt. Halle and her boyfriend, DDG, welcomed their son, Halo, which they revealed earlier this month through an Instagram post.

Both the sisters are still keeping busy. Chlöe performed at the Urban One Honors: Best In Black event. Halle is set to host a Masterclass that fans can livestream, which will be part of the festivities for Grammy Week. More information about that can be found here.

Chlöe also recently teased during a TikTok livestream that the two could be reuniting to put out some new music. Both sisters worked on their solo projects, with Chlöe dropping In Pieces, and Halle appearing as the lead in the live-action Little Mermaid.

Check out Halle Bailey and DDG’s announcement of Halo’s birth below.

Grammy season is underway. As the events are rolling out, members of the Recording Academy are looking forward to enriching their minds with music knowledge and creativity.

“I am so excited for this second installment of Grammy House,” Harvey Mason Jr., CEO of the Recording Academy, said in a statement (via Billboard). “The response last year from younger fans and artists just starting their relationship with the Recording Academy was overwhelming, and we’re a better organization because of the increased engagement with them. I’m grateful for the amazing artists and partners who are helping make this year’s Grammy House an even bigger success.”

One of the Grammy Week events includes a special Masterclass with singer and actress Halle Bailey. Members of Grammy U will be able to attend the Masterclass in person by invitation only. The good news for non-members is that they will be able to livestream the event on Friday, February 2 at 1 p.m. PT, via the Grammy Awards’ YouTube and Twitch channels.

Over the course of the past year, Halle Bailey, who performs under the stage name Halle, starred in two movie musicals — The Little Mermaid and The Color Purple released her solo debut single, “Angel.” She has proven to be quite successful in both music and film, and while it’s not clear what her Masterclass will be about, she’ll surely have some valuable insight to offer.

No, Ice Spice Does Not Have A Little Munch In The Oven, Despite The Viral Photo Circulating Online

In 2023, no other rap rookie shined quite like Ice Spice. You name it, the “In Ha Mood” rapper accomplished it. From chart placement and big brand partnerships to massive collaborations with superstars Nicki Minaj (for the Barbie movie soundtrack) and Taylor Swift, Ice Spice is one to watch.

This year, based on interviews from her producer, RiotUSA, the Bronx native doesn’t have any plans on slowing down with her debut album slated to drop this year. However, thanks to a now-viral photo shared by Ice Spice, users online think that could be pushed back. After uploading an image on X (formerly Twitter) to show off her casual chic look of the day, her followers’ reaction was quite what Ice Spice expected.

The number one thing on fans’ minds was: Is Ice Spice pregnant? The question nearly became a trending topic as the image’s impressions on the platform alone rocketed to over two million.

Ice Spice chimed in without skipping a beat to shut down the speculation quickly. “Nobody’s pregnant,” she wrote. “N****s just phat.”

Images taken from other angles seem to support Ice Spice’s claim. However, after the lengths Halle Bailey went to in order to hide her pregnancy on social media, users aren’t convinced by Ice Spice’s explanation.
