Lizzo has the internet buzzing after posting some eye-catching artwork and a now-deleted Instagram Story showing what looked like a baby bump, leaving fans wondering if she was announcing a pregnancy or just teasing something for Halloween. Some thought it referenced rapper Cardi B, while others linked the visuals to urban fiction author Quan Millz.
