Ciara And Russell Wilson’s Controversial Baby Photoshoot Spoofed By Ellen DeGeneres

Although Ciara’s Harper’s Bazaar maternity photoshoot received a lot of criticism from the internet, daytime talk show host Ellen DeGeneres wasn’t interested in focusing on the controversial part of the image.

On Thursday, the talk show host shared the photo of a pregnant Ciara holding her son Future as her husband Russell Wilson placed his hands around her baby bump. However, in this particular picture, DeGeneres photoshopped her head sticking out from Ciara’s back along with her arm and hand helping to hold Future up.

“We’re expecting,” she captioned the picture. The comedian managed to find humor in the photograph that not everyone took a liking to.

Many felt like the photo wasn’t tasteful considering Ciara’s son was nude and Wilson is not his biological father, rapper Future is.

Detroit Lions Cornerback Darius Slay felt like the expecting singer disrespected the father of her first child. “It’s crazy some of y’all think it’s ok for that Ciara pic,” he tweeted following the release of the original photo. Comedian Lil Duval also chimed in saying he would never let his son do a photoshoot like the one Ciara allowed her son to do.

Despite the negative opinions, DeGeneres decided to find the funny in the photo. Ciara isn’t the first celebrity that the television host spoofed a picture of.

In February, DeGeneres photoshopped her face onto a pregnant woman mimicking Beyonce’s announcement that she was expecting twins. “Me too!” the host hilariously captioned the photo.

Prior to that, she photoshopped herself into the “Ocean’s Eight” teaser picture which gave the world a first look at the cast in character. The film stars Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett, Helena Bonham Carter, Anne Hathaway, Mindy Kaling, Rihanna, Sarah Paulson and Awkwafina.

It’s only a matter time before another celebrity releases another photo and DeGeneres is back to her old antics.
