Nothing confirmed Cardi B’s pregnancy louder than the SNL performance of her single “Be Careful”, which debuted last month.

The New York City native performed in a stunning Christian Siriano baby-bump hugging white gown and wore her hair in a glamorous up-do.

Below is the video of Cardi’s performance:

When the camera zooms out at around 2:34, you can see Cardi’s baby bump is totally there. The crowd cheered and social media went wild.

Viewers were excited and in shock. According to PopCrush, one fan Tweeted:

Many fans were supportive, calling out that the pregnancy did not stop her success on the charts.

Although supportive, some fans asked, "Why Now?" during the first suspicions of her pregnancy.

Rumors of Offset cheating didn't help either.

But at the end of the day, if 50 Cent has your back, what else is needed?

And we can’t forget the supportive re-post from Rihanna:


In spite of her pregnancy, Cardi will go on to perform at Coachella as well as the other festivities where she is slotted to perform in upcoming months. Because her baby is expected to arrive in July, fans might see one or two cancellations. We know Coachella is safe--in an interview, Cardi talks about how much she paid for her Coachella stage set, and rather candidly, I might add.

Overall, I’m super excited for Cardi B, and love the fact that she was able to essentially “hide” her pregnancy from the media until she was ready to announce it on her terms. Of course, there have been speculations, but she was able to play them off and keep us guessing, which was entertaining in and of itself. We’ve seen huge stars like Beyoncé and Adele who have successfully kept their family life private, and it’s something to spoken about when an emerging artist like Cardi B, with similar levels of fame, can accomplish such privacy, too.

Ronda Racha Penrice points out that Cardi B's backlash comes from the history of working women being judged for starting a family on what seems like the "height" of their career. I am glad we are living in a generation where the "right time" to start a career and a family is finally being viewed as the woman's right to choose.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
