Clearly the highlight of the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards was Beyonce’s shocking confirmation of her pregnant belly on the red carpet.

What came a close second to Bey’s awesome announcement was her hot performance of “Love on Top,” where she lovingly rubbed her pregnant belly as she belted out a song that declares undying love and affection…
“Tonight I want you to stand up on your feet, I want you to feel the love that’s growing inside of me.” ~ Beyonce

VIDEO: Beyonce Performs “Love on Top” at MTV VMAs
With a blinding light beaming out behind her, Beyoncé took the stage in a purple spangly tuxedo jacket, black pants and white tuxedo shirt, still rocking her fierce six-inch heels of old, pregnant or not.
Her blond hair blowing in the wind, and backed by six dancers wearing similar shimmering tuxes, the glowing diva gave new meaning to the lyrics, “Now everybody asks me why I’m smiling out from ear to ear.”
Beyonce’s performance had me dancing in front of my television! Bey exuded happiness on stage last night… and hands down was my FAVORITE performance of the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards.
At the end of her performance, Bey dropped the mic like Eddie Long and exited the stage, but not before she rubbed her pregnant belly while looking lovingly at her booski Jay-Z…

so nice
*SCREAMING* I GOT CHILLS WATCHING THAT… THAT’S ONE BLESSED BABY! CONGRATULATIONS!
A blessing, happy for them. Jay Z is sooooo happy, its all in his face.
So this is how she announces her pregnancy? Like its a media move..ok its official their marriage is a business deal..”let’s debut the baby bump @ the VMA’s” seriously doe?
Everyone is selling their existence in the entertainment business.
@Dean Spencer I don’t think it was a media move at all.. They try so hard to live their personal life in secret & the media or the fans feel like they deserve to know every aspect of their lives..
When Beyonce’ was singing that song & giving that performance with her all in those heels, all I could think about is she have been pregnant all this time and she is one woman to do all of that to keep that secret.. and then when dropped that microphone and you saw all the happiness on Jay-Z face of a brand new Papi face.. You can’t help but be happy for them.. May God bless them and the new bambino..
Peace!!
Bruno Mars! Sorry Bey but he stole the show!!!
THAT WAS TOO MUCH!!! WTF IS WRONG WITH HER IMMATURE ASS!!! THAT IS A CHILD INSIDE OF HER NOT A MARKETING TOOL!!!!! FUCKIN DUMB BROAD!
Uuuggghh!!! I guess it takes toooo much energy to be happy for someone….smh!
I don’t believe she is pregnant… Did you look closely at the pregnancy belt when she opened her jacket. I think it’s their (Jay & Beyonce’s) way to make a mockery out of the paparazzi. Whose been saying she was preggers. Listen to his song New Life & her Love on Top….. The same way jada & Wills story spread like wildfire & blew up twitter so did this. Could be a media plow?
Great for her! A new life, especially a planned one with the mother and father’s consent, and the ability to give the child quality of life is a wonderful thing! Time to put the haters and naysayers way behind and take care of herself and her baby.
B was the Bomb! , Jay and Kanye did their thing. What Hip Hop use to deliver.
dont think she did it for anyone she is clearly happy and i am happy for her some of you all need to jump of a bridge because how did you tell ppl you were having a baby ? with ya bum ass baby shower invite begging for gifts !!! bey good j good worry bout ya self with ya bum ass baby father that prob didnt want ya kid so STOP THE HATE & CONGRADULATE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not hating but hope the baby takes after mama on looks
I don’t understand why it has to be a media ploy? They r already PAID, & successful individually & as a cpl. Both their albums already dropped (not that the baby news would increase sales necessarily) & I’m wondering if there r ppl out their who really believe they timed their pregnancy w/the awards show….GOH!!
& if their relationship was all about media, why would they have kept it so lowkey from the beginning. Their relationship is about THEM, as it should be. When ur a celebrity cpl of that magnitude, u can’t please everybody, so u might as well do what u want, how u want. I say, congrats to them!
@Ivette, i’m with you. They’re gonna be happy & live their lives and other pples ignorence and hating is not gonna bother them none…geesh!
I am HAPPY for them!!:)jay wanted a baby a long time ago but he loved his wife n waited til she was ready.I wish them nothing but more happines n more babies lol aside from bey,I luved chris brezzy n lil wayne’s crazy ass!
Old news mediatakeout already said she was pregnant three months ago her mother denied it now she using her pregnancy to sell her new album due to poor sales….her and jay live a private life so why annouce in public. she could have pulled a j hudson and let people keep guessing without confirming
beautiful so happy for her
Im so very happy for both Bey and Jay. May God bless continue to bless you. Have a happy and health pregnancy!
Multi-Million dollar heir is on the way!
Chris brown owned the show hands down
WHY THE HELL AM I CRYING! LOL. I’m so happy for them.
I’m happy for both of them. Congrats.
Bey owned the show hands down!!!
It was a good and bad move….kind of tacky in a cute way the way she was going on at the end of her performance (watch it). why r people actin like they never heard someone was preggers before? oh cuz its beyonce. lol….this shit is soo overrated…happy 4 her but some people are actin like shes carrying their child lol…nuff said
I thought it was an adorable move. She looked so happy and beaming. I kept wondering where the booty shorts and bustiers went and therein lay the reason….Bey is with child. So lovely. Pregnancy looks good on her.
JayZ is so terribly unattractive. We can only pray the baby come out looking like Bey and that it is a boy. A girl child with JayZ’s face is doomed.
Well, since others of you have done so. I will offer my take on who owned the show plus some:
Minaj and Weezy owned the show.
Amy was underappreciated
Gaga was a hot mess & I’m tired of her H.O.M.O-ISH comments cuz who gives a f*ck and she is mannish looking no matter what she wears.
Tamar’s husand Vincent is adorable and I hope he is making mad money off of that scalawag Gaga
Chris Brown lip synched – AGAIN
Brittney is a manufactured product and undeserving of any award.
BEY IS HAVING A CHILD BY OTHER MEN NOT JAY-Z SHE IS MARRYED TO HIM TO NOT JAY-Z I WONDOR WHEN THE REAL TRURTH WILL COME OUT
@name with hold
What on earth? Are you trying to say that Beyonce will be on Maury Povich?
Will Maury tell Jay Z "YOU ARE NOT THE FATHER!"
No. I refuse to believe that. It is Jay’s baby and it will be a boy.
I do feel sorry for his other son whom he does not claim. Price vs. Pauper. The Man In The Iron Mask
The revealing of the pregnancy was cute. Corny, but cute.
She sang that song though!!!
I just find it odd for a woman that really says nothing about her personal life to suddenly disclosed something so personal the way she did.I realize that the pregnancy would eventually show but to me it seemed to be done as a way to just upstage people at the VMA’s.
I also think it’s too crazy that Beyonce fanatics will always act as if everyone should worship her as you do.Personally I don’t hate her,I just think her music needs growth and her image seems so manufactured in my humble opinion.
