Beyonce reveals pregnancy at MTV VMAs

Singer Beyoncé Knowles outlined a baby bump to photographers last night (August 28) after months of speculation she might be pregnant.

The R&B star, 29, used her hands to frame her baby bump under a loose-fitting dress as she arrived at the MTV Music Video Awards in Los Angeles.

Beyoncé did not talk to media but her publicist later confirmed the pregnancy, reported the Associated Press.

It will be the first child for Beyoncé and her husband, rapper Jay-Z, who married in 2008.

Beyonce took the stage to perform 'Love On Top' and said to the audience: "I want you to feel the love that's growing inside of me."

After her performance that gained a standing ovation from the audience, Beyoncé ripped open her jacket and proudly rubbed baby bump.

The cameras then panned to where Jay-Z was beaming and friend Kanye West jumped around and shook him to congratulate the new father-to-be.
