Today is a pretty momentous day: there’s going to be another Kardashian in the world. Blac Chyna, Rob Kardashian’s beautiful fiancé, announced today that she’s pregnant with his kid. And the crowd (or the Internet… or Twitter, to be specific) went wild. It’s always exciting when there’s news about any member of the Kardashian family, because, well, we’re super obsessed with them. We don’t even know why at this point, we just know that we’re into it. It’s almost like they have a magical power over us and we just follow whatever they do, no matter what we think or feel. But we are definitely over the moon about this pregnancy news because, hey, babies are adorable and it’s awesome when you hear good news about celebrities instead of stupid fights or negativity. Here are 12 different reactions that the Internet had to the news that Blac Chyna and Rob Kardashian are expecting.
12 Happiness
Who’s the happiest about this pregnancy? Blac Chyna, of course. She posted a super cute Instagram that’s basically her but in cartoon character form, wearing a huge engamgent ring… and with a naked pregnant belly that is tagged “Rob Kardashian.” Just in case you didn’t know who the baby daddy was. She put some super cute emojis in the caption section (of a baby face and a party sign) so clearly she’s super happy.
11 Excitement
People are really excited about this news. Because people get really excited about anything that has to do with the Kardashians. So, naturally, this is exciting news. Makes sense. It’s basically basic Math at this point. TMZ, Us Weekly, and all the major gossip websites/publications are going pretty crazy covering the news today.
10 Confusion
There’s a catch to this good news: it does make things pretty confusing. Because, unless you don’t know, Blac was once engaged to Tyga. They have a kid – King Cairo, a little boy who is 3 years old. Not that confusing. But things get tricky when you realize that Rob's step-sister, Kylie Jenner, is dating Tyga. A lot of people are talking about that on Twitter and Instagram, joking about that super crazy family tree and whether the kids would be cousins... and also siblings? What? Is that even allowed? We need a drink. Or two.
9 Negativity
Just scroll down the Instagram comments and you’ll be super surprised by how mean some people can be. Well, you probably won’t be all that surprised, actually, since the Internet is definitely the place of mean people. There are a bunch of negative comments and not everyone is so excited by the news of the pregnancy. Take this comment, for example: “She reminds me of one of those gold digging… women in a Tyler perry movie.” That is such a terrible thing to say, because of course she is successful in her own right, but people are going to say terrible stuff and you just can’t stop it.
8 Awe
This tweet says it all: "within 3 months in a relationship, engaged, and pregnant. 2016 Woman of the year." Hilarious. And super true. What have you done in 2016? Yeah, you probably didn't accomplish all of those personal/romantic/relationship goals. But it's okay, you can just bask in the awesomeness of Blac and Rob. Hey, everyone else takes years and years to convince their boyfriend to marry them, let alone start a family, but not her. Respect.
7 Humor
Then there were the Twitter reactions that made us laugh. Like this one: a gif of Kris Jenner throwing her head back and drinking from a bottle of wine. Amazing. Entertainment Weekly writer Nina Terrero tweeted, "Rob Kardashian & Blac Chyna are reportedly pregnant ...which means Kris Jenner just got a new white hair." So funny. Mostly because it's definitely true.
6 Kim Kardashian Jokes
This is a different Internet reaction than the general humor mentioned above, because we all know that Kim is basically the Queen of the Kardashian clan, and we're pretty sure that she's crying right now. At least that's what a bunch of people are saying online and we don't think it's that far from the actual reality. It makes sense that she would want the attention to stay on her, right? Even if you love her, you have to admit that she really likes being the center of attention. That's basically how she's gotten where she is today.
5 Just Can't Even
Hey, we don't blame the people who tweeted that they need to turn off their computers and go away for a while, because it is definitely a lot to take in. This one hilarious tweet said, "Blac Chyna having a baby by Rob? Now Tyga will be an uncle to his sons' sibling? Aight I'm logging off now." We feel the same way.
4 Total Shock
People seem to be having a super hard time wrapping their heads around the pregnancy news, probably because it's the Kardashians and they always are the centre of media and social media attention, no matter what is going on. It's like the law of the pop culture universe or something. People keep tweeting the news like it's a question, but guess what, Twitter haters? This is real. So stop being so surprised. Women get pregnant. It happens. No big deal.
3 Overreacting
For the past few hours, the tweets have been flying left and right, and a lot of people are totally overreacting. They're acting like this is the worst thing and yet the most incredible thing that has ever happened in the history of the world. Seriously, people, calm down. Everything is going to be okay. Take a deep breath.
2 Feeling Inspired
We didn't know that "fitnessed" was a verb but apparently now it is. A bunch of people are saying on Twitter that she "fitnessed 2016" because of all the amazing things that she's accomplished. Namely, getting pregnant with the spawn of a Kardashian member. It's basically the impossible and she did it, and in a super short amount of time. The Internet is bowing down and we are, too, basically. She's an inspiration to us all.
1 Denial
The #1 reaction on Twitter? Definitely total and complete denial. It's honestly like she is the very first woman in the world to ever get pregnant. People just can't seem to handle this news and figure out what has possibly happened. But eventually, you have to get over your denial, right? Because this news is happening and the reality is, this adorable and famous couple is pregnant, and the world (and the Internet) will just have to learn to deal. Simple as that. Until the next celebrity pregnancy rocks the Internet, of course.
