Beyonce & Jay-Z Are Expecting Their First Child!


The 29-year-old Grammy winning diva and rapper husband Jay-Z are expecting their first child together.

Beyonce opted to make the news known at Sunday's MTV awards by wearing a orange gown that revealed a baby bump. But even as she was taking photos while cradling her baby bump Beyonce was staying mum about the news, only saying "I have a surprise!"

The pop-star made the news official when she took the stage to perform "Love on Top" and telling the crowd "Tonight I want you to feel the love that's growing inside of me!" and then unbuttoned her purple sequined jacket and rubbed her belly.

The couple married in 2008 in a quiet ceremony at Jay-Z's New York apartment. Congratulations to the happy couple!

Nelly Furtado Is Donating $1 Million From Gaddafi To Charity


Singer Nelly Furtado says she will be donating the $1 Million she was paid to perform for family members of Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi.

Nelly Furtado, Beyonce, Usher and Mariah Carey all performed for Gaddafi in the past and although Beyonce and Usher have yet to disclose the amount they were paid, they are  feeling the pressure to give back the money they were paid.

Nelly is the first of the four artists to openly say they're giving back their performance money.
"In 2007, I received 1million$ from the Qaddafi clan to perform a 45 min. Show for guests at a hotel in Italy," the singer, 32, writes on Twitter. "I am going to donate the $."
I hope the rest of the artist follow in her footsteps. I highly doubt they'll miss the money in their bank account and the best part is that it's totally tax deductible! 

The Obama Administration has recently called for Gaddafi to step down from his 40 years of rule following an uprising against him that has left 1,000 Libyans killed.
