Others aren't quite sure how to break the news to people.
Perhaps there is a conspiracy theory at play.

Of course, there are always a few jokes to be made whenever something like this starts trending.

For the record, we can 100 per cent confirm that Donald Glover and Childish Gambino are the same person so let that be the end of that.
