The post titled ‘not feeling very jolly this Christmas’ got more than 100K reactions and close to 10 million views, as people were congratulating the streamer who will now be embracing maternity. However, things took a different turn when some users found that the picture was actually taken from Google.

This enraged a lot of people who claimed that faking pregnancy just to get more likes on the platform, is one of the most craziest thing someone can ever do. Others were critical of the streamer of she can joke on such a grave matter, when some females who are infertile, aren’t able to become mothers.

JustaMinx confirmed that it was indeed a joke but people are making too much fuss on this matter. She replied to a user stating, “Hey babes, it’s a joke, I’m literally infertile because of my epileptic meds, just block me and move on,” lashing out at her critics, that she understands the sentiments of infertile women.

The fake pregnancy kit came as a prank during the time of Christmas, where many users claimed that they themselves are not feeling very jolly at the time of festivities. Others joked that she might be positive for Covid-19 and should go on quarantine.

However, her prank did not go well with other users as fellow streamer Kitsu Queen called her out, claiming that it was quite a sh***y prank to play, as there are females with infertility issues that are waiting to get this kind of good news. She wasn’t the only one who criticized her though, as JustaMinx’s comment section was flooded with reactions.
