Keke Palmer posted a GIF of herself standing in front of the mirror with a protruding belly. She captioned it, “I’ve officially joined the summer MOM club,” followed by a smiling emoji surrounded by hearts.
Palmer posted the tweet on April Fools Day, leaving people hesitant to post their congratulations to the actress who is known for posting humorous skits on social media.
One of Palmer’s Twitter followers, however, didn’t think the post was funny. Her sentiments were echoed by other Twitter users.
if this is really a joke, it’s best you know that a pregnancy joke/prank is not something to joke about. not only on april fool’s day but also everyday

Other followers suggested not to take things posted on Twitter too seriously.
you gotta realise social media will never be sensitive to your feelings, it’s best to scroll away

Meanwhile, some people called it a food baby and brushed off the alleged faux announcement.
