Rapper Cardi B reveals her second pregnancy in a surprise BET Awards performance yesterday when she joined Migos For A Turnt Up Performance of ‘Straightenin' & ‘Type Sh*t’.

Beyoncé’s pregnancy announcement at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards had been a memorable occasion but this showing, which some have referred to as a memorable baby-bump awards show moment is no less spectacular.

In a nutshell, Cardi B revealed, in spectacular fashion, that she and her husband Offset are expecting their second child. It took some time to appear on camera, but as she did, astute onlookers knew what they stared at.

Nevertheless, Cardi B performed nicely.

Yahoo Music reported on what happened when the hip-hop superstar strutted onstage about three and a half minutes into Offset's performance with his group Migos of “Straightenin’”/“Type S***,” the audience at Los Angeles’s Microsoft Theater understandably went wild. 

But it was only when the cameras panned out that viewers totally understood that this was no ordinary surprise cameo. A wide shot showed that Cardi was glowing in a bedazzled, belly-baring Dolce & Gabbana onesie, looking well into at least her second trimester.

And there's those who responded to it:

“Umm, OK, Bardi with the baby bump,” Black-ish actress Marsai Martin, who was presenting the Best Group award to Silk Sonic, quipped after Cardi’s big reveal. 

Also, awards host Taraji P. Henson also referenced the potentially internet-breaking moment, saying, “Let’s go back to Cardi B and Offset giving us life — literally!”

Cardi’s Instagram page also has a related post. Shee posted a racier announcement for her more than 97 million followers: an artsy portrait of Cardi in profile, with her nude, pregnant body slathered in what appeared to be white paint or plaster. “#2!” read the simple caption.

Finally, Y! Music claims a press release disseminated shortly after Cardi and Migos’s BET Awards performance stated that Cardi was happy to “share this wonderful news with her husband by her side.”
