Oops—did Keke let the cat out the bag?

Keke Palmer may have slipped up and divulged some information she didn't necessarily mean to during a recent interview.

While joining the Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday (Jan. 25), the actress revealed the sex of her unborn baby, which had been unknown to the public before the TV appearance.

As the Nope star—who is due to give birth around the March/April 2023 timeframe—spoke about her upcoming arrival’s possible zodiac signs with the audience, she casually mentioned, "I don’t want to be too blunt for my baby boy."

Viewers felt the admission must have been an accident, since she had not previously announced the newly-uncovered information.

Whether purposeful or accidental, fans took to social media, as they always do, with their reactions to the news.

“keke just said ‘my baby boy’ on the tonight show OMGGGG congratulations,” one user wrote, as another added, “Wait. Did Keke Palmer just reveal she’s having a boy on Jimmy Fallon?!”

Early last month, Palmer hinted at having a girl on Twitter, which now seems it may have just been an opinion on things she's observed versus a statement concerning her own reality.

"It kills me when guys are disappointed that they are having a girl, like they aren't the reason for that genetic outcome lmao. Also, baby girls are a blessing," she tweeted at the time.

The 29-year-old confirmed she was expecting a bundle of joy with boyfriend Darius Jackson during a December 2022 Saturday Night Live episode.
