Rihanna Pregnancy Rumors Flared Up At The Diamond Ball
People have been speculating that Rihanna’s next big venture will be Baby Fenty By Rihanna for a while now. Homegirl can’t drink a beer without internet detectives falling over themselves diagnosing her belly with a severe case of the babies. Last night RiRi hosted her 5th annual Diamond Ball, and in addition to raising funds for her Clara Lionel Foundation, she raised eyebrows with a dress that was a little poochy in the middle. Add that to a comment she made about black mothers, and you’ve got yourself a full blown FETUS ALERT. However, TMZ says that sources “with direct knowledge” assure them the oven’s empty.
Unlike that ridiculous report from earlier this year that Rihanna was preheating her oven, I can see why folks think they can see a little baby badass bump, from certain angles, during her performance last night at the ball. But as someone who looks pregnant from all angles, despite having listed my oven as free on Craigslist and leaving it on the curb to get rusty before eventually sucking it up and paying to have it hauled to the dump, I’m uncomfortable with the speculation.
Rihanna pregnant as fuck lmao https://t.co/Yr28woDywZ

People want Rihanna to be pregnant so badly that they even took these innocuous comments about black womanhood as proof that there’s a teeny tiny black woman growing in her womb right this very minute.

But as previously noted, TMZ unequivocally states that Rihanna is not pregnant!
There has been a flurry of activity on social media, with people honing in on one of the photos from the gala, along with an interview last night, suggesting she’s pregnant. Sources with direct knowledge say sorry, she’s not pregnant.
All this speculation really just tells me is that some people have never worn a 50 pound velvet turtleneck Givenchy Haute Couture ball gown on stage before, and it shows. Them shits ride up like a summabitch!
And Rih had to pull her dress up to go to the stage, thats her dress all rolled. pic.twitter.com/HFOELbva5K

Ugh oh, that backfired. Judging by that fake ass little sip, I’m now convinced she’s pregnant. I can understand why people want it to be true. Who else is out here throwing charity balls and serving us look, after look, after look! That kind of generosity is rare these days. And what could be cuter than a mini-Riri?!
