The Rapper: Wiz Khalifa
His Significant Other: Amber Rose
Why Their Pregnancy Announcement Surprised Us: Even though they were engaged when Amber first revealed that she was pregnant with Wiz's seed, we still thought these two were experiencing the puppy love that comes along with a new relationship. But, we were obviously wrong. These two look like they're in it for the long haul. And, even if they aren't, they will always have a child together, so they're connected forever. Who would have thought?

The Rapper: Bow Wow
His Significant Other: Miss Joie
Why Their Pregnancy Announcement Surprised Us: Because there wasn't one! For the first years of her life, Bow Wow didn't say anything about having a daughter until he finally came clean in a letter that he wrote to his fans back in 2011. We would have been surprised enough by him telling us that he had a kid on the way. So, imagine our surprise when he revealed that he not only had a baby girl but that she was already a couple years old. Pretty crazy.

The Rapper: Tyga
His Significant Other: Blac Chyna
Why Their Pregnancy Announcement Surprised Us: Back in July 2012, the "Rack City" video vixen was spotted walking around an amusement park with a noticeable baby bump. But, neither her nor Tyga acknowledged it or answered questions about it. But, eventually, it was revealed that she was pregnant and that the baby was Tyga's child. Sounds like "Rack City" did more than just help jumpstart Tyga's career, eh?
