How many children does Pitbull have? That’s the question you’ve all been asking, isn’t it? Unless you’ve been on TikTok lately, in which case you already know that the answer is 21. Or is it? No. No, it isn’t.
That claim stems from a video posted last month by comedian Pat Williams, in which he ranked celebrity men by their supposed number of children.
Mr Worldwide came out top, with Williams claiming that the rapper is a “Hawaiian island volcano - he’s got 21 kids with eighteen different women in thirteen different countries. He sees them all twice a year and he’s never missed a child support payment”.
The claim went viral and was repeated elsewhere as fact. It’s certainly believable and seems on brand for the star. However, it’s apparently not the most rigorously researched piece of information. So says a spokesperson for Pitbull, anyway.
“That is completely inaccurate and obviously comedic humour”, a spokesperson tells Rolling Stone. Ah, good old comedic humour.
Anyway, that returns us to the question we posed at the start of this article. How many children does Pitbull have?
The answer, in fact, is that he has 27 children with nineteen different women in sixteen countries. He sees them all three times a year and has missed seven child support payments due to administrative errors.
That’s not the actual answer, of course. No, that’s just more of that comedic humour. Apparently. Saying random numbers is fun though. Try it today!
