Influencer’s ‘TNT’ gender reveal stunt sends pregnant woman flying

An influencer and mother-to-be is copping heat for her elaborate gender reveal with viewers worried for her and her unborn baby’s health.

They put her on blast.

A well-known Florida influencer and mother-to-be faces criticism after her extravagant gender reveal put her and her unborn child at risk.

Lele Pons, from Miami, hosted a lavish party with a showy stunt to announce the gender of their baby.

Along with her husband, Pons stood on stage in front of a background with a sign that read “Team Boy” behind dad and “Team Girl” behind mum. People in rain ponchos stood under each sign waiting.

The expectant parents then pressed down on a handle that read “TNT” — and turned around to see pink gloop shooting out of the “Team Girl” side.

The sketchy substance rushed out, covering the people standing under the sign.

But the liquid shot out so quickly it flooded the stage immediately — causing Lele to slip and fall to the ground, while her husband jumped for joy.

The pregnant woman struggled to get her footing and continued to slip while everybody celebrated — when the proud papa turned around and saw his wife in distress.

Lele laughed it off as her husband held her upright, but viewers did not find the situation as hilarious.

The video quickly went viral on Instagram and people were not impressed.

“Omg this is so dangerous. Not even funny,” one person noted echoing many of the other comments.

“A girl but at what cost, it was almost not any gender,” another said.

“Did she nearly lose her child over a gender reveal?” someone asked.

“Literally the most dangerous reveal I have seen!” another person commented.

While people’s reactions may seem a bit explosive, they come as people have increasingly rejected gender reveal theatrics after some have ended in wildfires, jail time and even death.

Several years ago, the woman credited with inventing the trend even began begging the public to stop the “toxic” practice.
