Beyonce's baby news was a big deal in the digital space. In fact, it was record-breaking news. The Telegraph reports that a record 8,868 tweets per second were sent after the singer debuted her bulging belly at the 2011 VMAs on Sunday night. The record was previously was set during the women's World Cup earlier this year when Japan battled America. At that time, 7,196 tweets were sent per second!

Women's soccer? Pft. That's got nothing on the fact that Beyonce is going to be a mommy!

While it seems that the much of the free world was posting tweets about the bun in Bey's oven, the signer herself has yet to issue a single tweet about the matter via her @beyonce handle. Since her big reveal, she has not utilized her personal Twitter account to discuss being preggers.

At this point, it's like why bother? Everyone else is already talking for her. She can use her hands to pat that beautiful belly as opposed to using her thumbs to tweet messages to the fans!

Beyonce is reportedly around four months along. This is her first pregnancy.
