Beyonce's pregnancy is the news at VMAs
POP star Lady Gaga picked up two awards and Katy Perry won three, including video of the year. But it was Beyonce showing off her new baby bump that stole the show at MTV's Video Music Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday.
The MTV VMAs annually turn up the volume on surprises and outrageous acts by the world's top singers and bands. Last year it was Lady Gaga's meat dress and the year before the Kanye West and Taylor Swift speech mishap. But nobody saw the Beyonce's pregnancy coming - except her husband Jay-Z.
Beyonce, whose hits include "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)," first appeared on the red carpet, posed for photographers and used her arms to outline the baby bump over her long gown. She later performed her song "Love On Top," telling the audience to stand up and saying, "I want you to feel the love that's growing inside of me."
Lady Gaga opened the VMAs singing her song "You and I" and dressed in drag as her male alter ego, Joe Calderone. She stayed in the fictional character throughout the program and accepted awards for best female video and best message video for her song, "Born This Way."
"I feel so blessed to be here," Lady Gaga said onstage, holding the MTV moonman statuette for best female performer. "It doesn't matter how you are - gay, straight, bi, lesbian, transgendered - you were born this way."
The other big winner was Perry, who took home video of the year, the night's top prize, with her triumphant song and video for "Firework."
The American singer also picked up best collaboration for "E.T." featuring Kanye West, and a minor trophy for special effects with "E.T."
Perry, who is known for cute and colorful costumes, accepted her award with a cube-shaped hat on her head.
Other awards went to Justin Bieber for best male video with "U Smile," and Tyler, The Creator took home the MTV moonman for best new artist with "Yonkers."
Britney Spears earned the honor of having the best pop video with "Till the World Ends." She also got the special honor of the Michael Jackson video vanguard award.
