<p><strong>Sexyy Red </strong>gagged fans in October when she announced <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/sexyy-red-pregnancy-announcement-photos/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">her pregnancy</a>. At the time, sis made it clear she was <em>&#8220;tired of fakin.&#8221;</em> Now, it turns out she wasn&#8217;t just keeping fans out of her womb business but tour production and her staff too!</p>
<p>In a sit-down with <a href="https://youtu.be/jxhC5zBTZr4?si=EsGJ0lAKHO0vXBVy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Billboard</a>, Sexyy Red opened up about hiding her pregnancy and the literal pain it caused her!</p>
<p><amp-instagram data-shortcode="C16Kj2_suZe" layout="responsive" width="600" height="600" data-captioned></amp-instagram></p>
<p>Sexyy explained that when &#8220;no one knew&#8221; she was baby bumpin&#8217;, she&#8217;d be hiding from staff trying to &#8220;suck [her] stomach in.&#8221; She confirmed that she was pregnant while touring with Drake and also Moneybagg Yo.</p>
<p>To keep the bump hidden, she intentionally wore clothes that didn&#8217;t frame the bump and practiced hiding it on stage.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;And I&#8217;d have to practice my breathing, like before I go on stage&#8221; Sexyy Red shared. &#8220;I&#8217;d have to hold my stomach in and look at myself and be like, &#8216;Can they tell.&#8217; And then, once, I just like &#8216;Okay, I can&#8217;t keep hiding it&#8217; cause it hurt to just be on stage on all day holding that stomach in.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>That pain led her to just &#8220;forget about it&#8221; and let everyone in on the news. The &#8220;only reason&#8221; she hid the pregnancy was to have that private experience with her close family and friends.</p>

<p>As mentioned, Sexyy Red confirmed she was pregnant with her second child in October. The 25-year-old reportedly dropped the bombshell surprise after performing Drake&#8217;s &#8216;Rich Baby Daddy&#8217; with SZA in St. Louis.</p>
<p>She shared a photo cradling her stomach on Instagram, captioning it, <em>&#8220;Team boy or team girl.&#8221; </em></p>

<p>By that time, though, fans had already peeped and circulated minor talks of a baby on board. Still, as the rapper described, she went above and beyond to keep her business hers for a hot minute.</p>
