For celebrities, the announcement of their pregnancy is one of the moments that causes more expectation. And that was the case with the announcement made by Natti Natasha tonight in her performance alongside Prince Royce during the Premio Lo Nuestro award show.
–
Dressed entirely in white, the reggaetonera chose the stage of the awards to announce that she is expecting a baby from her partner, producer Raphy Pina, a rumor that has been running for more than three months.
–
But like singer Natti Natasha did tonight, many other celebrities have chosen to do it on stage.
–
This was the case of the famous pregnancy of Cardi B in 2018 taking the stage on NBC’s Saturday Night Live.

Like Natti, the Dominican-born rapper wore a white dress and smiled as the cameras took her belly. Only one day had passed since his first album was released. His partner Offset confirmed it the next day on Twitter.

It is striking that in the era of social networks, both Cardi B and Natti Natasha chose a stage to announce their pregnancy, after months of keeping it a secret.
–
Natti Natasha’s surprise announcement reminds us of the one made by singer Beyoncé in 2011 during the MTV VMA’s awards ceremony when she opened her sequin jacket and stroked her belly to applause from the crowd. She and Jay Z thus confirmed the arrival of their first daughter.

The singer once again attracted attention with her pregnancy in a presentation on stage at the 2017 Grammys. Like Natti Natasha, the singer wore a beaded tiara.
–
Another of the most anticipated hidden pregnancies was that of the Russian model Irina Shayk who announced it without saying a word when parading in lingerie and slightly covered in the belly in November 2016 for the Victoria’s Secret firm in Paris. Irina was expecting her first child with her partner Bradley Cooper.
–
—–Another that stole the attention was the actress Blake Lively the night her husband Ryan Reynolds presented his movie Pokémon. The actress appeared on the carpet dressed entirely in yellow and with a prominent belly with which she announced the expectation of her third child.
–
Finally, a well-known couple that, amid the rumors, could no longer hide their pregnancy was formed by Marc Anthony and JLo in 2007. In November of that year, the singers chose their tour in Miami to announce the expectation of their twin Max and Emme.
–
And although it took a few minutes after their presentation on stage for Natti Natasha and Pina to fill their Instagram accounts with photos that expressed their happiness for the expectation of their first child, another ‘official’ announcement of her pregnancy would arrive this week with Natti showing off her bulging belly on the cover of a magazine. As famous people usually do.
