Ever since they first became popular, it's safe to say we've seen some weird gender reveals. But one couple seems to have taken the biscuit with their not-so-traditional approach to finding out whether they'd be having a boy or a girl. In a display that has left many people straight up confused, mom-to-be Maria Popa opted to have two pole dancers perform an elaborate routine in front of guests at her gender reveal party. Rather than simply cutting into a cake or popping a balloon to reveal blue or pink, Maria had her two dancers dressed in blue and pink underwear as they twisted around the pole in her back garden. A video of the bizarre gender reveal has already racked up over 6.8 million views on TikTok, [[tiktokwidget||https://www.tiktok.com/@mariap_poledance/video/7131668038604066054]] However, many people were left puzzled by the spectacle, which didn't seem to explicitly reveal the baby's gender. "What was it I was confused," one person commented, while another wrote: "I’m a little confused." For others, the performance clearly took things a step too far, with one commenting sarcastically: "Well …. That’s a first …" <img class="wp-image-1263165766 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2022/08/FCE08A4E-1F3D-4D87-BECE-57865500690F_4_5005_c.jpeg" alt="" width="1320" height="255" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: TikTok]] <img class="wp-image-1263165767 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2022/08/D40D64B0-2542-469F-AB4A-7A06FE5BF0BD_4_5005_c.jpeg" alt="" width="1324" height="256" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: TikTok]] <img class="wp-image-1263165768 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2022/08/DB3B7C0C-5168-495D-85B5-16DB32E71916_4_5005_c.jpeg" alt="" width="1384" height="268" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: TikTok]] But in a <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@mariap_poledance/video/7132156481637453062">follow-up video</a>, Maria shared a longer video of the routine that revealed how - at the end - one of the dancers popped a balloon, which exploded with blue confetti. The clip confirmed that Maria and her partner are in fact expecting a baby boy. With the gender truly revealed, many viewers took to the comments section to praise the imaginative display. Some pointed out that it made perfect sense for the couple, considering that Maria herself is a pole dancer. "You’re a dancer and it’s super creative and unique," one person wrote, while another gushed: "The best gender reveal I’ve seen in a long time, that was awesome! Congratulations." <img class="wp-image-1263165773 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2022/08/4EF8A289-0F7C-43EF-8B67-1856A4757A1E_4_5005_c.jpeg" alt="" width="1366" height="279" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: TikTok]] <img class="wp-image-1263165774 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2022/08/4E8A87AA-30FF-4E8E-B327-D336DA792E85_4_5005_c.jpeg" alt="" width="1362" height="270" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: TikTok]] <img class="wp-image-1263165775 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2022/08/D53EA8F9-2BB6-4142-A4E7-9D3E5D062031_4_5005_c.jpeg" alt="" width="1374" height="292" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: TikTok]] <img class="wp-image-1263165772 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2022/08/BAAA5F05-2E99-4201-8172-23788CF0C77B_4_5005_c.jpeg" alt="" width="1210" height="239" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: TikTok]] Others commended the couple for hosting a gender reveal that didn't set fire to anything or release balloons into the air as many have been known to. "They ain’t polluting the air releasing balloons or causing fires this is cool af! Congrats," one person commented, while another added: "They didn’t set anything on fire so this is a good reveal." <h6>Featured Image Credit: Luis Louro / Alamy</h6>
