It’s official – Beyonce is expecting her first child with hubby Jay-Z! The 29-year old R&B/pop singer hit the black carpet at the 2011 MTV VMAs at the Nokia Theater LA Live in Los Angeles this past Sunday wearing a loose bright orange Lanvin gown. As the flashes started going off, Beyonce told the photographers “I have a surprise for you!” and held her stomach, revealing a baby bump hidden under the fabric of her dress. She may not have said it out loud but pictures were definitely worth a thousand words. In this case, just two – I’m pregnant. She also did the same thing after her performance. Congratulations to Beyonce and Jay-Z on the impending arrival!

I have still failed to understand what is the fun in keeping your marriage hidden or unannounced when everyone knows the truth.

There are other wonderful techniques to stay in the news like releasing spoof videos of presidential candidacy, staying with a lesbian room-mate, issuing statements against the family members or the vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin, breast feeding in public showing the gorgeous milk jugs, and many other similar stunts.

Then why don’t people announce their weddings when they do it?

The latest addition in the very long list of celebrities, who like to keep their marriages hidden, is the pop singer Beyonce Knowles.

In an interview which the pop star gave to Essence magazine, she finally admitted that she is married to Mr Jaz-Z.

She said that her day was small and intimate because she’s so damn unselfish. She also said that she’s had enough red carpets and premieres that “it’s been my day so many days already.”

Reportedly she was in such a hurry that she did not ask for an engagement ring. She said, “People put too much emphasis on that. It’s just material, and it’s just silly to me.”

What a wonderful way for Beyonce Knowles to admit that she is married and living happily. Also what a great time it is to come out with the announcement when only a few days are left in the release of her upcoming single.
