‘Go Kelly and Baby’: Kelly Rowland Hits Choreography Moves While Almost Nine Months Pregnant, Blowing Fans Away

Singer Kelly Rowland danced her way into her followers’ hearts on Dec. 30 after posting a video showcasing her moves to her single “Hitman.”

The expectant mother, who is almost nine months pregnant, was seen incorporating African dance with hip hop while rocking her Ivy Park ensemble. Rowland was promoting her single when she captioned the upload “#OOOOO SHE WANTS TO MOVE #HITMAN #dancingpregnanakeyoutiredAF.” A number of fans raved over the star’s moves.

“Go kelly and baby! Go kelly and baby!! Go go Go. 🤣👏🏾”

“It was the walk off for me!!! You betta work queen 😍”

“Girl…………… dance like that and this baby is gonna pop right out ! Love it @kellyrowland #getitmama”


“Wow. Even pregnant you’re still doing the damn thing!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽😍”

“How is this girl pregnant with all this movement??? #goals”

While many fans praised the singer, others brought up Rowland’s former group, Destiny’s Child, which included Beyoncé and Michelle Williams. One pointed out that the 39-year-old’s outro reminded them of the popular girl group. 

“Yes that was a Destiny’s Child walk away🙌🏽👑.”

Another referenced the Destiny’s Child’s 2002 chart-topping song “Survivor” combined with the group’s name. “You are a survivor with a Destiny’s Child.” 

An Instagram user mentioned that they would love to experience another tour and album from the group despite their amicable breakup in 2006. “We need another destiny child album + Tour 👀❤️.”

In 2011, Rowland told Billboard magazine while promoting her album “Here I Am” that all three women were incredibly supportive of one another despite the breakup. “It’s just really great that we’re all doing different things and we’re all happy in our space.” She also added that the trio had no plans on working on a new album or touring together anytime soon. 

“To be honest with you — myself, Michelle and B — we haven’t talked about it. It has not come up in our conversations. We talk about everything else… But we haven’t talked about that yet.” Since that time, Rowland and Williams have joined Beyoncé during her Super Bowl performance in 2013 and Coachella in 2018. 

A day following the original post, Rowland announced she has officially joined TikTok by sharing a collaborative recording of fans putting their own spin to the singer’s “Hitman” dance.

“I am new to TikTok! Who should I be following?!? Follow me @kellyrowland! Meet me on there now! Help me out!! Also, the full video is on Tiktok! 😂 #HITMAN.”

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
