Mama Gone Wild! Pregnant Shay Mitchell Celebrates Baby Shower At ‘Magic Men’ Strip Club!
Sept. 19 2019, Updated 11:30 a.m. ET
Shay Mitchell is already a cool mom. This month, the Pretty Little Liars star celebrated her baby shower with a visit to the male strip club!
In a steamy video shared on her YouTube channel, the Canadian actress, 32, enters the club at the Avalon Hollywood with her girlfriends, wearing a skin-tight pink dress that shows off her curves and growing baby bump. Her gals match her style in sexy pink outfits.
While inside, Mitchell is shocked to see a line of half-nude men standing in the entrance. The hunks wear black pants and not much else!
Mitchell takes a seat at her VIP table — which her friends had covered in baby-shower-appropriate goodies. There are pink baby bottles filled with booze, and pink snacks such as frosted cupcakes. Of course, Mitchell sticks to water during her fun pregnancy bash.
As the ladies watch the Magic Men Live! show, their jaws drop. When one of the shirtless male strippers gets on stage to seduce a woman, Mitchell jokes, “Oh my God. I’m going into labor!”
That doesn’t stop the men, who rip off their white shirts in unison, garnering screams from the predominantly-female audience.
Meanwhile, in another scene from the video — titled Not Your Average Baby Shower — Mitchell's boyfriend, Matte Babel, is seen home alone, with no idea where Mitchell went!
“Hey babe how’s it going?” he texts her adding, “Do you guys want snacks?”
Mitchell is clearly too preoccupied to reply, so a few minutes later, he texts again, “Hello?”
At one point, the strippers hear Mitchell and her girl gang’s wild screams and invite the actress up onstage for a lap dance. The mama-to-be gladly accepts, still in awe.
Back at home with Babel, 38, Mitchell refers to her party as her “baby bachelorette,” and promises her baby daddy that when he sees the footage from the night, he’ll think of it as an “artful” show.
Also in the YouTube video, Mitchell is seen visiting her mom in Vancouver, Canada, and talking to her friend about getting a doula to prepare for the birth! At a doctor’s appointment, she also learns that her baby girl is breached, meaning she may have to have a caesarean section.
“Come on!” Mitchell says to her unborn daughter.
Beginnings
As RadarOnline.com readers know, Mitchell and Babel — who was a reporter for Entertainment Tonight Canada — started dating around January 2017.

Since then, they kept their relationship very private.
Low-Key Love
While Babel posted several photos of his famous girlfriend on Instagram throughout their relationship, the actress didn’t publicly confirm their romance until this year!

Reality Star?

Romance
“Now it’s about us, and I would never want it to be like I’m not confident of us,” Mitchell says in a clip about her and Babel’s relationship. “I’m extremely confident now because I have my baby growing inside me. It didn’t feel right to just put up a photo and be like I’m pregnant and have people just think that everything has been peaches and rainbows."
Baby Daddy
"This is real life and I want people to come along with me on this journey in real time," she continued.
