Look away Beyonce! Superstar's elaborate pregnancy announcement sees some VERY awkward lookalikes sweep the web
- Beyonce revealed she is expecting twins with a series of elaborate photos
- Included shots of her underwater, surrounded by foliage and entirely nude
- Comedy pregnancy announcement pictures have surfaced online as a result
It's one of the most magical times any couple will experience - preparing to welcome a child.
And what better way to mark it that with a bizarre bump photo-featuring featuring props ranging from horses to handguns?
After Beyonce revealed she and Jay-Z are expecting twins with a series of elaborately posed shots on Instagram and her website, a whole host of eyebrow raising announcement pictures have surfaced on the web.
Submitted to Awkward Family Photos, the pictures prove that, though the world might 'bow down' in the presence of Queen Bey, her announcement wasn't quite as original as she might have thought.
