Paloma Faith being even more of an idiot than she usually is

Obviously I'm happy for her that she's happy to be having a baby. But when she was in her mum's stomach waiting to come out, did the world think she'd decided what gender she was when she was older?
You're right Paloma, gender doesn't matter at all, so why enter in to the gender debate, why mention gender at all.
All the videos people make of their "gender reveals" are actually of sex reveals but understandably people don't want to say "come to my sex reveal party", because let's face it most people would think it involved keys in a bowl.

I sincerely hope that she has a safe,easy delivery, & that she finds herself with a happy, healthy baby. However, baby will still either be male or female, no matter it being 2026. Seems odd to directly insult your own audience in this way… Sti...

These celebrity can post their silly rants on their Instagram or whatever, but could you imagine if any of them actually had to debate the issues with someone like Akua Reindorf?

I suspect they might not actually be able to understand each other and Faith would claim victory either way.

Boys have a penis, girls do not, 2026 or any year.

AreYouSureAskedNaomi · 21/02/2026 12:03

Oh she comes across really badly in the video. Does she have a history with drugs that maybe could have cause cognitive issues?

Who does James D care enough to repost? Random.

James has been an advocate for the rights of women, girls and LGB for many years now (to his own detriment) and regularly points out this type of nonsense for exactly what it is..

@hholiday I never knew that about her. Once you're famous there's always someone with receipts.

She’s never been much of a friend to women so I’m not exactly surprised. Natalie Cassidy said she was a bully when they were at school together. I guess she knew what girls were back when she was picking on them in the playground.

FFS, it's a general word for an area of the body. Of course I know where babies are carried I've had my own. I'm not adverse to a bit of pedantry myself but making that the focus instead of a bonkers celeb saying her baby can choose it's own gender is a bit much

Actually, (apologies), it's not.
Stomach is specific.
Also, I don't believe the poster was making that the FOCUS of anything, twas just a comment, as she clearly said!
Yes, Paloma Faith is an absolute idiot.

TheCriticalThinker · 21/02/2026 07:06

I do wonder who the thickest celebrity is. Paloma Faith, Kate Nash and Neville Southall all immediately come to mind

She's an idiot. But so is anyone who says that women carry babies in their stomach. That's not a more polite version, its just wrong.

What is impolite about womb, or uterus, or even abdomen if those are too risky?

Show quote history

What's wrong with putting one word to the side and focussing on the main issue of the post?

Thick as two planks, is Paloma.

You can be, I was using a more polite word, just like the youngsters say 'gender' reveal instead of sex reveal.

Thick AF. 🙄

CoralOP · 21/02/2026 00:27

I used to like her and her music, god knows what she has turned into, she's lost the plot.

tobee · 20/02/2026 23:36

What an embarrassing load of old shite.

Lottapianos · 19/02/2026 16:24

She really is a complete chump

FranticFrankie · 19/02/2026 16:17

She's playing for trans-points
I can't roll my eyes hard enough these days

EmeraldRoulette · 19/02/2026 15:50

Pancakeflipper · 19/02/2026 09:43

Is she just attention seeking ?

This or a joke, surely? It can't be real.

AnSolas · 19/02/2026 14:23

Pleasantsort2 · 19/02/2026 09:36

Can someone please tell me what she said ? I'm not on X. (I love James Dreyfuss too).

Just a fyi
You can still click on the link (if asked select web rather than app) and see one post and click on the video to play it

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Iamnotalemming · 19/02/2026 13:54

Good grief, the cringe. I hope she's not going to start making shouty transphobe songs next.

Whereareyourshoes · 19/02/2026 11:30

Desperate for attention. Well done Paloma. We see you and your luxury beliefs.

Poor child.

Can I be the annoying person who points out that you don't carry a baby in your stomach?

Otherwise, agree completely.
