Nigerian Afro-house queen Niniola has set social media buzzing after posting a video of herself vibing to her soon-to-be-released single, “Belle.”
In the viral clip, the award-winning singer Niniola appeared with a noticeably rounded belly, looking very much like a pregnant woman. Her caption only added to the confusion:
“I Done get ‘BELLE’. New Music Loading 17/10🔥🔥🔥”
The post quickly stirred reactions across Instagram as many fans flooded her comment section with congratulatory messages, thinking Niniola was actually expecting a baby.
Instagram user @thug_pretty_ wrote, “No be this woman talk say make we dey use condom to avoid touching stories 😂 plot twist abi twist of fate.” @its_yomade added, “But no be wetin u teach us be this ooo area sister 😂.”
@reserved_pearl observed, “I knew it was fake… didn’t see her navel.” @sanola_studios said, “Lemmgo and delete my congratulations 😂.” @that_turban_girl confessed, “To think I sent my congratulations ooo.”
@sydneyondabeat gave a more logical take, writing, “You guys believed at first 😂 with all the amount of PR online these days. The song is talking about pregnancy, so how will she not use it as a PR package. I was just seeing congratulations all over the post.”
While some fans felt fooled, others praised Niniola’s creativity, calling it one of the smartest song teases of 2025. The singer’s new single “Belle” is set to drop on October 17, 2025, and is already building anticipation with this cheeky promotional twist.
