IN MEMES: Twitter drags Ciara over topless pregnancy family portrait
US musician and actress Ciara found herself in the middle of a fierce social media storm on Tuesday after a family portrait celebrating her pregnancy went viral.
The snap, shot by US women's magazine Harper Bazaar, showed a topless Ciara holding her first child Future Jnr, while her husband Russell Wilson held her belly from behind.

The picture left social media users with so many questions. And, no, we don't know why Russell is hiding there.
AKA defends Okmalumkoolkat after his controversial past is resurrected AKA has come out in Okmalumkoolkat's defence after a tweet sparked a debate over his sexual offender past. "That man owes nobody an explanation except for the victim, his own child & his family," he wrote.
The internet went wild over the photo, with many dragging the couple for agreeing to the "awkward" photo.

Baby Future is way too old to be naked in that photoshoot and Ciara acts like he really doesn't have his own father, it's so disrespectful.

Even poor Kelly Rowland got caught in the middle of it.
The singer first came under fire when she appeared to like a negative comment about the snap, but later cleared the air, saying she was Ciara's friend and a fan of the picture.
