Travis Scott has done it at last.
He has spoken out on the baby Kylie Jenner is allegedly expecting as a result of the rapper and the reality star having had unprotected sex about six or seven months ago.
But did Scott actually say anything of substance?
Did he reveal his baby mama’s due date? Or the gender of the impending child? Or verify his relationship with Kylie is still going strong?
Or, heck, even acknowledge the 20-year old is pregnant?!?
Simply put: no, no, no and no.
“I don’t want to talk about that. They’re just guesses. Let them keep fishing,” Scott told Billboard this week when asked about becoming a father.
Doesn’t exactly sound like someone excited to welcome a new life into the world, does it?
Yes, the celebrity gossip community is “fishing” for information on Kylie’s pregnancy.
But this just means various rumors are floating around; from wondering whether Jenner is Kim Kardashian’s surrogate…to whether she contemplated an abortion… to whether she’s actually already had the baby.
You would think Scott or Jenner would want to clear this chatter up. To set the record straight.
For whatever reason, they are remaining totally mum on the topic instead.
Is this their right? Absolutely.
Does it make us sound hypocritical, that we’re so often mocking Kylie for being too open with her life… and now we’re giving her a hard time for staying private?
Not really.
Pregnancy is a HUGE deal!
With so many outlets having confirmed this news, no one is wondering any longer whether Kylie will have a baby this spring.
Instead, her silence has simply caused us to wonder just why she’s being silent.
She could release a brief statement and then go into hiding if she so desired.
But is she simply embarrassed by her baby bump? Could she be considering adoption for the child and then pretending that she never even had it?
No one knows.
No one even knows if Scott and Jenner are still together or if they broke up over Christmas, as has been bantered about.
For his part, Scott admitted to Billboard that he sees Kanye West “everyday,” but claimed the two never really talk about romance or parenthood.
He started dating Jenner in early 2017 and she’s supposedly due in February or March.
This would mean Kylie got pregnant just a couple months into the relationship, which makes us believe it was an accident.
This doesn’t mean Jenner won’t love her daughter or that everything won’t turn our great in the end.
But it would explain the awkwardness at play here; Scott is just 25, Kylie is just 20 – and both are focused on their careers.
We somehow doubt they really want a baby right now.
But she’s coming, guys. Pretty soon, in fact.
So you better embrace that fact, get used to talking about it…and prepare to shower that child with all the love in your heart.
