Beyonce Knowles is pregnant. The singer arrived at the MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs) last night in a loose fitting orange dress, and clutched her visible baby bump as she posed on the red carpet. She told the press: "I have a surprise!" Beyonce's publicist later confirmed the news, telling People.com: "I'm happy to say it's true." The child will be the first for the 29-year-old and her husband, rapper Jay-Z, who married in 2008. During the VMAs Beyonce first cheered on Jay from the side of the stage as he performed new single 'Otis' with Kanye West, then wowed the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles herself, singing 'Love on Top'. She told the crowd: "I want you to feel the love that's growing inside of me." As she sung, Beyonce proudly rubbed her bump, and the cameras panned over to Jay-Z, who had a huge grin on his face. The performance was met with a standing ovation. Beyonce has recently hinted she was thinking of settling down, saying earlier this month how she was hoping to "dedicate herself" to having children. She said: "When you're young - 18 or 19 - you have the energy and drive. That's the time to work as hard as you can. "Now I'm a woman, and because I gave it my all, I can focus on my marriage. I can decide I want to have kids. I can be the mother I want to be and dedicate myself to my children."

UPDATE: Tina Knowles tells Ellen DeGeneres the rumor isn't true.

Could Beyonce Knowles be on way to having her own "Baby Boy"?

According to several reports, the 29-year-old singer is expecting her first child with rapper Jay-Z. The two have been married sine April 2008.

"B was shocked. She loves kids, but she wasn't ready to be a mother just yet," an insider told Us Weekly. "She really wanted to get her album done and tour the world again." Despite the surprise, another source claims the performer recognizes that "this is a gift from God and she's so happy."

Earlier this month, Beyonce -- who is supposedly in her first trimester -- made an appearance with Tina Knowles (her fashion designer mother) on the Today show. Check out the clip above and see if you notice anything different about her. Is that "glow" really about her mom?
