As you"ve no doubt heard by now, Kylie Jenner is pregnant with her first child.
We think.
Kylie has yet to confirm that she"s expecting, and a surprisingly large contingent of fans believe that"s because she"s not actually knocked up.
Why would she engage in such a foolish stunt? What makes Kylie"s biggest fans think she"s misleading the public? And why the hell won"t she just come out and say whether she"s pregnant?
