Beyonce’s Pregnancy May Push Back ‘A Star Is Born’

The VMAs belonged to Beyonce and Jay-Z, not only for their own respective performances, but for the announcement they are expecting their first child.

Beyonce revealed her baby bump on the VMA black carpet before debuting it during her live performance.

According to MTV News, Beyonce and Jay-Z, real name, Shawn Carter, found the announcement was freeing because it was hard to keep the big news a secret.

After Beyonce finished her performance, the 29-year-old was greeted by hugs and well-wishers backstage. There, the singer said, “I’m free. We’re all free.”

Soon enough she was joined by her husband, Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams, and Kanye West, who couldn’t wait to congratulate Beyonce with a hug.

Meanwhile... *Deadline.com’s Nikki Finke is reporting that Beyonce’s pregnancy may affect production on her upcoming film — ironically, a remake of “A Star is Born.”

A star is born 1954
We’ve learned that Warner Bros was hoping to start production on Clint Eastwood’s musical remake of A Star Is Born as early as February 2012.

But now insiders tell us it “could push” because Beyoncé announced her pregnancy at MTV’s VMAs.

That will give the studio more time to settle on a male co-star for the singer/actress since Eastwood’s first choice, Leonardo DiCaprio, isn’t doing the pic.

(Clint used his time with Leo on the studio’s J Edgar Hoover biopic to discuss A Star Is Born.)

The project, which has been at WB for several years, has generated talk of pairing Beyoncé with Will Smith and with Christian Bale and with lots of other leading men. Beyoncé and Jay-Z wed in April 2008: he’s a good actor so I say give him the role.

Back to the fact that Beyonce's pregnant! And her fans aren't the only ones excited like they're the ones about to give birth too.  Beyonce & Jay-Z's celebrity friends have been dishing out the congrats, since Sunday.
