"The fact twitter has crashed on both the day Nicki Minaj revealed she was pregnant and the day she revealed the gender.... baby Minaj really might be the second coming of Christ."

In February, rumors sparked that the "Bang Bang" hitmaker is pregnant with her first child; however, it wasn't until July that speculations were put to rest after Nicki confirmed the news through a stunning maternity photoshoot.

Shot by the famous photographer David LaChapelle, the award-winning artist looked like an ethereal goddess as she wore a silver headdress paired with a sheer white gown while showing off her baby bump.

In another Instagram post, the female rapper thanked her fans for the continued support as she donned an embellished two-piece swimsuit paired with sky-high heels.

"Love. Marriage. Baby carriage. Overflowing with excitement & gratitude. Thank you all for the well wishes," Nicki wrote.

Prior to this, the Trinidadian-American singer-songwriter previously expressed her desire to have her own family and kids in the future.

"In 2022, I'll definitely be married, and I'll definitely have my two children," she told Complex in 2012. "OK, I might have three."

At the time, Minaj mentioned how she wanted a baby boy since she had a close relationship with her younger brother and felt like it was her real son.

"And boys, they're just so, I don't know... My heart just melts when I see them," she added.
