Kanye will never live this one down.

Never.

Strange, they are both supposed to have such sterling reputations.

Good thing there is no chance of this baby becoming a narcissist.

"If it's a boy, Kanye. If it's a girl, however, Kanye." - Kanye West practicing his baby name pitch in the mirror to Kanye West.

Some are excited at the prospects the baby’s birth might bring.

But not everyone is pleased with the news.

Kanye West just announced onstage that Kim Kardashian is pregnant. I don't even need a prophecy to tell me this kid has to be destroyed.

And some people are just being sarcastic.

Thank you, Kim and Kanye, for giving everyone something to talk about tomorrow during awkward gaps in party conversation.

In fairness to Kim, she is technically still married.

Most pregnancies last about nine months, or about four marriages in Kim time. #kimye

Further proof that this baby is just a PR stunt: even people in galaxies far, far away are using the child for marketing purposes.

Kim Kardashian is pregnant with Kanye West's baby. Is now a good time to tell you about our very reasonable planet exploding rates?

If Kim hoped people would eventually forget how she became famous, it clearly hasn’t happened yet.

Is there a tape of the conception for sale yet?
