Social media trolls struck again, this time, targeting rapper Young MA in a series of fake pregnancy photos.
Young MA reacts to fake pregnancy rumours
The Off The Yak rapper became an internet meme when doctored images purporting a baby bump surfaced online. The pictures show Young MA dressed in an orange mesh shirt and her stomach protruding.
While on social media, the images spawned offensive jokes about the rapper’s sexuality, it didn’t take much genius to determine that news of Young MA being pregnant was not only false but that the viral photos were photoshopped for s***s and giggles.
After all, Young MA had posted the original photos on her Instagram in late June 2022, showing a flat stomach.
While Young MA did not issue a direct response to the online ridicule, the rapper did take to her Instagram to share this Instagram Reel on her Stories, which could be interpreted as a reaction to the disparaging remarks made by trolls.
For as long as she’s been active in mainstream music, Young MA has always been open about her sexuality. In a 2019 interview with Jason Lee on Hollywood Unlocked, the Ooouuu rapper made it categorically clear that while she prefers to date women, she does not necessarily identify with a particular sexual orientation.
“No, I’m Young M.A. We don’t do no labels. I just wouldn’t date a guy. Nah bro, I don’t like that,” MA said.
Young MA has previously been linked to several women, more recently Instagram model Kaylah Gooden. News of the couple’s rumoured romance first surfaced in July 2021 when Gooden candidly posted intimate photos of the rapper on her page.
It remains unknown if they are still an item.
