Katja Krasavice Reveals 'Foodbaby' Prank to Promote New Single

The German rapper staged a faux pregnancy bump on Instagram to promote her first Bundeskanzlerin single, prompting widespread fan backlash

Overview

  • On August 8, Krasavice posted an Instagram video stroking her visibly rounded belly without explanation.
  • She later changed the caption to label the bump a "Foodbaby" and announced a preview of her first Bundeskanzlerin single would arrive Sunday at 12 p.m.
  • The stunt contrasts with her July 27 statement that she would never carry a child and planned instead to support children in need.
  • A Promiflash reader poll showed 85 percent of fans were disappointed by the misleading teaser.
  • Reactions ranged from users decrying the prank as tasteless to others who found the stunt humorous.
