MUMBAI: Wrong news can also go viral quickly when the celebs are taken for a toss with wrong assumptions by the audience. It just takes one picture of celebs looking a little 'chubby' for people to assume that they are pregnant. People are too much keen to indulge in the personal life of celebs. And then these fake rumours spread like a wildfire. This has happened in the past and even now it continues to happen the same way.
Sonam Kapoor- There were rumours and gossip which set the internet on fire that Sonam Kapoor was pregnant when she returned from London after she was spotted in loose outfits. People started celebrating even before knowing the true facts.
The actor put an end to these rumours by posting a pic of herself enjoying ginger tea and using a hot water bottle on the first day of her period.
Paris Hilton- People took a wrong turn while spreading that Paris Hilton was pregnant with her first child with fiancé Carter Reum after the duo was spotted post-dinner.
Clarifying about the same she mentioned clearly,
"I am not pregnant. Not yet. I am waiting until after the wedding. My dress is being made right now so I want to make sure it looks gorgeous and fits perfectly. I'm assuming it was the Paris Hilton push-up bra from my new lingerie line. I was wearing it to dinner with my fiancé... and I guess some people got some shots."
Justin Bieber- posted a pic with his wife with the caption, "Mom and dad" and it was enough to spark pregnancy rumours and puzzle the fan following on his wife being pregnant.
Responding to the post, his wife made a clarification in the comments saying:
"I think u should maybe change this caption to *Dog Mom and Dad* before anyone gets it twisted."
Natalie Portman- A tabloid made a false claim of Natalie Portman is pregnant based on her look and a paparazzi shot.
She put these rumours to an end by calling out the tabloid name in one of her Instagram stories.
Deepika Padukone- A prank video that involved raw mangoes, shared by Deepika Padukone, gave rise to the doubts about her being pregnant.
Earlier too, she was asked by a journalist if she was pregnant during the promotions for her movie Chhapaak. In response to that, she said-
"Do I look pregnant? I will ask you when I will plan (a family). If you give me permission then I will plan. If I become pregnant then you will see that in nine months."
Shilpa Shetty- There were much gossips about Shilpa Shetty's pregnancy soon after she was spotted coming out of a diagnostic lab, with medical reports in her hand.
Samantha Akkinein- It was back then when she held an AMA session on her Instagram Stories, fans asked her if she was pregnant.
Answering back to the question, she said:
"I’m pregnant since 2017 I think, this baby really doesn’t want to come out I think."
Jennifer Aniston- On several occasions, people assumed that Jennifer Aniston was pregnant although the actress doesn't have a child.
Dua Lipa- Fans believed that she was pregnant after she shared a photo in a plaid cutout mini dress and a caption with a slew of baby-related emojis. The emoji put forth can also be misleading at times, they can create many problems which lead to wrong notions.
She had to clarify the rumours- she said
"I like finding little random emojis. I put, like, a little baby bottle, a little angel, some sparkles. Random. I really didn't think this through. I am not pregnant, just to clear it up. Not pregnant."
