Nelly & Ashanti Dodge Questions About Whether They’re Expecting Another Baby

Nelly and Ashanti refused to answer questions about whether they’re expecting a second child while speaking with reporters at the annual Black and White Charity Ball at the Four Seasons Hotel in St. Louis, Missouri on Sunday. When journalist Damon Arnold flat-out asked the couple if that’s the case, they refused to comment. “Don’t do that,” Ashanti said, as caught by Bossip, while Nelly added: “I’mma stay quiet.”

As for the rest of the event, an insider told PEOPLE that the couple had a ball during the night. “They were playful and loving and telling everyone what a good baby KK is,” the source shared. They added that the couple’s son “lights up when he is around his daddy.” At one point, the two both hopped on stage to perform the 2002 hit “What’s Luv.” They also sang Ashanti’s “Baby,” while changing the lyrics to “We made a baby, baby, baby, baby, baby.”

Nelly and Ashanti welcomed their first child together, Kareem Kenkaide Haynes, earlier this year. In August, Ashanti explained the heartfelt story behind his name while speaking with Entertainment Tonight. “His dad named him with a lot of pride,” she said. “We were going back and forth for a long time on his name and he was very adamant. He was like, ‘This is what I want, I love this.’ I thought it was just so amazing and so thoughtful and so sweet because Kenkaide is my dad’s name and obviously my dad has only girls, so Nelly was just like, ‘I think that would be really dope.’ This was all his idea.”

Megan Fox & Machine Gun Kelly Break Up While Expecting 1st Child Together

Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly have reportedly broken up just weeks after announcing they are expecting a child in March of next year. According to sources for TMZ, Megan found “material” on MGK’s phone that she found upsetting and abruptly ended things. They had been traveling together in Colorado for Thanksgiving as it happened, leading to Kelly bailing on the trip early. TMZ further reports they haven’t seen each other since.

Fox and Kelly first began dating back in 2020, shortly after the actress split from her ex-husband, Brian Austin Green. While she shares three children with Green, her upcoming fourth child will be her first with Kelly. Neither Fox nor Kelly have commented publically on the reported split.

Megan first announced that she was expecting in November. Shortly afterward, she spoke about her experience with PEOPLE. “With this being child #4, I already have learned all the tricks to make my body feel well physically and mentally,” she told the outlet. “I am sleeping and exercising and sticking to my healthy diet and lifestyle, as always.” Fox added that her three kids, Noah, 12, Bodhi, 10, and Journey, 8, are all excited for another sibling. “The kids are all super excited for another addition to the family and have promised to help out and pitch in,” she said.

In other news, Kelly recently confirmed that he’s restarting work on a new album. “Isolating myself in the desert next week to restart this album from scratch. When inspiration flows through me unblocked, we will reach the destination in no time. don’t worry,” he wrote in a post on X (formerly Twitter). He added: “After all, im about to be a dad again!”

MGK Claims He’s “Isolating” In Desert Before Megan Fox Gives Birth

MGK and Megan Fox are not a normal couple. They are strange even by celebrity couple standards. From their polarizing joint interviews to MGK’s infamous “I am weed” proclamation when they first met, the two have continued to baffle and fascinate the public. Their streak of inexplicable choices was extended on Monday, November 25. MGK took to social media to announce that he was taking drastic measures to finish recording on his upcoming album. Measures made all the more drastic by the fact that Megan Fox is currently pregnant with their child.

MGK hopped on Twitter to inform fans that he will be retreating to the desert. He’s not hiding out from his partner or anything, he merely wants to get his head straight and focus on music. “Isolating myself in the desert next week to restart this album from scratch,” the rapper turned rock star explained to his fan base. “When inspiration flows through me unblocked, we will reach the destination in no time.” Perhaps sensing that fans would be confused by the timing, MGK assured them he is ready to assume dad duty when he returns. “Don’t worry,” he added. “After all, I’m about to be a dad again!”

MGK Wants To Complete His Album Before Fox Is Due

MGK has been vocal about the impact that fatherhood has had on his life. The rapper told the Million Dollaz Worth of Game podcast that it was the birth of his daughter, Casie Baker, that helped him to get sober. “It took me a while afterward, because obviously drugs have a vice grip on you,” MGK admitted. “That was step one for me. As a father and as a man, to be the father I wish my dad would have been, I have to break this generational curse for my kid.”

MGK and Megan Fox will be welcoming their first child today after the latter suffered a miscarriage. She opened up about the traumatic experience during a 2023 interview with Good Morning America. “I’ve never been through anything like that in my life,” Fox noted. “I have three kids, so it was very difficult for both of us.” MGK dedicated the songs “Don’t Let Me Go” and “Last November” to his unborn child.

Nicki Minaj Deeply Misses What She Used To Look Like Before Kenneth Petty “Impregnated Her Womb”

Nicki Minaj is feeling nostalgic and a little insecure on this Tuesday afternoon thanks to some very personal text messages. According to The Neighborhood Talk, the Trinidadian rapper and singer shared some texts between her and her boo, Kenneth Petty. Nicki started the conversation by sending the father of her child of spicy picture of herself, basically topless. In fact, the only thing covering her chest area are some shiny nipple pasties. Following that image, she writes, “What my jugs USED to look like b4 YOU impregnated my womb with papa bear 🧸” That kicked Kenneth into cheerleader mode, sending back some appropriately hilarious emojis and accompanying messages.

“I remember those… they still… PERFECT TOO MEEEEE.” While it might be a little strange to share such a private conversation, it’s sweet to see that these two are deeply in love with one another. Some social media users share that same feeling, with one adding, “She love that man & that baby.” “I don’t get it…what’s the issue with her posting this? Half of y’all WISH y’all man would admire you like that😭!” another proclaims.

However, there are quite a few who are not too big of fans of this back and forth between Nicki and Kenneth. “Just go back to the doctor. But take us out the chat first😩!! Mmkay, thanks.” “Mind you they both 81…” “Still no Nicki. Stop forcing. It.”

All of this negativity could stem from some Barbz’s opinions on their relationship. It’s not been the most shining example of celebrity pairings, thanks to Kenneth’s checkered past. Additionally, Nicki has had her lowlights as well, with her behavior online being a major point of contention. But regardless, it’s clear that this longtime couple is always ready to support each other when they need it. That is something no one can really knock, and we continue to wish them lots of love.

Boosie Badazz’s Fiancée Admits She Would’ve Prefered To Be Married Before Having Kids

Boosie Badazz’s fiancée, Rajel Nelson, recently discussed her feelings about having a child with the rapper before they officially get married. As caught by The Shade Room, she admitted on Instagram Live that she originally planned to be married before welcoming her first child, but credited God for putting her in this situation.

“I did say I would like to be a wife before I have a kid, but God has blessed me to have a kid before I got married and that it okay,” she began. “This is my baby. I made it. So, I’m gonna just– you know. I made my bed, so I gotta lay in it. And, I would never do anything to stop this from happening because this is a blessing that God gave to me no matter what I said. I said it’d be nice to be married before I am here, but that didn’t happen just yet. I’m not discrediting myself for being pregnant. I keep seeing everybody keep saying, ‘You need a ring. You need to be a wife.’ The majority of y’all in the world are bastards. That doesn’t mean you’re not a blessing from God. That don’t mean God don’t love you.”

The explanation isn’t stopping criticism from users on social media. “Not judging her for having a kid before marriage but I’m definitely judging her for having a kid with Boosie,” one user wrote in the comments of The Shade Room’s post. Another went further, adding: “I’m sorry, she sounds crazy. Allowing a man to deposit his seed into you with the intention of creating life without being married KNOWING that is what you initially required and desired should not be so easily taken lightly.”

Rajel Nelson Discusses Her Relationship

Nelson’s latest rant on social media comes after the couple announced the gender of their child, last week. The two are expecting a baby girl. Check out Rajel Nelson’s full comments on the idea of marrying Boosie Badazz below.

Skai Jackson Confirms Pregnancy Following Rampant Speculation

Skai Jackson was making some major headlines in the latter stages of the summer for a domestic battery charge. It all went down at Universal Studios in Los Angeles in the CityWalk section of the park. Things reportedly got pretty tense, with TMZ saying that she pushed her boyfriend a few times following an argument. Authorities arrived moments after park security had them in custody. She was eventually released so things didn’t spiral too much. Still, it was not a good look for the former Disney star and it sparked many reactions. That was particularly the case days after the arrest when Skai got on a TikTok livestream to answer some questions.

She was accused by many for dodging the obvious issue swirling around her and was answering fake questions during the Live. So, yes, Skai was and definitely still is trying to move forward from that debacle and making a major life announcement will certainly speed up that process. According to The Shade Room and People, the 22-year-old is going to be a mother in the coming months.

Lil Scrappy & Shakira Host A Baby Shower For Unborn Child

Rumors that Scrappy was expecting another child started earlier this year when Now That’s TV star Nya Ray took to TikTok to do the “Put A Finger Down Challenge.” In her video, she revealed that she allegedly had a threesome with Scrappy and Shakira while pursuing Scrappy, and later found out Shakira was pregnant with his child. Allegedly, they used protection, but Nya eventually left the two of them alone to go pick up her daughter. She alleged that after finding out about Shakira’s pregnancy, she asked him what happened after she left, and he claimed he couldn’t remember because he was under the influence of drugs and alcohol. Nya also alleged that Scrappy tried to pressure her to talk Shakira out of having the child.

Tom Brady’s Ex Wife Gisele Bündchen Expecting A Baby With New Boyfriend

Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen were married for 13 years. They had two children together, and were among the most glamorous celebrity couples of the 2010s. Their marriage ended, however, in 2022. They remain co-parents to their children, but they have moved on to different lives. Tom Brady has retired and become a color commentator, and Bündchen has continued to secure historic deals as a model. It was Bündchen’s personal life, however, that took center stage on October 28.

TMZ confirmed that Gisele Bündchen is pregnant and expecting her first child with her boyfriend, Joaquim Valente. The model is reportedly 5-6 months pregnant, but is waiting to find out the baby’s gender until they are born. A source close to the model tell People Magazine that she is considering a home birth. “She’s excited about the baby and feels good,” the source alleged. “She’s several months along and planning a home birth.” Furthermore, the source claims that Gisele Bündchen is happier than with her current relationship.

Gisele Bündchen Started Dating Joaquim Valente In 2023

“Gisele and Joaquim are happy for this new chapter in their life,” they added. “And they’re looking forward to creating a peaceful and loving environment for the whole family.” Bündchen and Joaquim Valente were first spotted together in late 2022. The former trained in Brazilian jiu-jitsu under Valente and his brother, and People reported that their relationship was made official the following year. Those close to the model told the outlet that she wants to keep her relationship with Valente quiet. She has mostly succeeded in this regard.

This is a far cry from the Gisele Bündchen who discussed her ABC interview back in March. The model got emotional when asked about her split from Tom Brady, and admitted it was a very “heartbreaking” decision. “Everything I’ve experienced, it made me realize what I want and what I don’t want,” she said. “And I’m grateful for all of it. I’m grateful for every lesson.” Brady has not commented on Bündchen’s pregnancy, but he has been adamant that the two continue to co-parent their children.

GloRilla Speaks Candidly About Pregnancy & Having Kids After Lyrics On “GLORIOUS” Cause Confusion

It’s an exciting time for GloRilla and her fans, as she has finally released her debut album. GLORIOUS hit all streaming platforms this past weekend and it contains features from the likes of Megan Thee Stallion, Sexyy Red, T-Pain, Muni Long, and more. It’s been a pretty run-of-the-mill rollout for it, however, there have been some fans raising questions. On the track “RAIN DOWN ON ME,” a more gospel centric cut which has Kirk Knight, Maverick City Music, and more, there are some bars that turned some heads. “Watch over my family, Lord, and watch over all of my partners / And even though he hate me, Lord, watch over my baby father.” This led some to assume that GloRilla had some kids she was gatekeeping from the public.

She hasn’t addressed these lyrics in particular, but she’s had to debunk some theories surrounding pregnancy in the past. But this isn’t the only track that’s leading to some speculation. Charlamagne tha God had Big Glo on for a new episode of Out Of Context, and during their conversation, he asked her about the song “PROCEDURE” featuring Latto. This song already has some buzz around it thanks to the ATL femcee’s verse, but Charlamagne wanted to touch on one of Glo’s lines. “This nigga tryna get me pregnant, I need to tie my tubes (On God).”

He wanted to confirm with her that she’s really been experiencing that, to which she replied, “yeah.” The “tie my tubes” was sort of a half joke, but GloRilla also expresses that she would like to have kids. But instead of physically giving birth, she says she would much rather have a surrogate mother instead. Part of the reason is that she’s seen her friends carry kids and they came across as “restricted” in her eyes. Charlamagne was a little insensitive following her comments, saying, “It’s just nine months,” but she played it off by laughing and replying, “That’s just too long.” Fans were in the comments of The Shade Room‘s repost and applauding her for being candid and sticking to her guns in the interview.

What are your thoughts on GloRilla not wanting to physically give birth to a child? Do you think society forcing women to have children is a good or bad thing? What’s your opinion on going through a surrogate mother? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding GloRilla. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the worlds of music and pop culture.

Speaking about the pregnancy during the latest episode of her Just A Little Shady podcast, she said: “We’re so excited, too. When we found out, Evan was like, ‘They’re going to hunt with me.

During a previous episode of the podcast, Hailie discussed how she hid her pregnancy during her wedding with the help of her best friend, Brittany Ednie. Ednie explained that she ended up having to keep consuming the drinks that had been handed to Hailie. “So she was, you know, grabbing a drink, not consuming the drink as a responsible parent does,” Ednie explained. “Whenever people were turned around, she would hand me her drink, and I would chug so it looked as if she was continuously drinking throughout that night.” Hailie added: “Brittany was taking one for the team. Well, then I’ll defend myself, though, because I never really asked you to do it. It was like an unspoken thing with our eyes.”
