Beyonce's pregnant, breaks Twitter record

MB:

Beyoncé’s “big VMA [MTV Video Music Awards] moment” where she revealed her pregnancy to the world set a new record for microblogging site Twitter for most number of tweets per second (TPS).

This is according to a tweet posted by Twitter’s Carolyn Penner on its PR feed, @twitterglobalpr, on Aug. 30 at 5:08 AM.

“Last night at 10:35pm ET, Beyonce's big MTV #VMA moment gave Twitter a record bump: 8,868 Tweets per second,” Penner posted.

The previous record was at 7,196 TPS made during the FIFA Women’s World Cup finals held in Japan on July 17, as posted on Twitter’s official account (@twitter).

The 2011 VMA was held on Sunday evening, US time, at the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles, California.

“Tonight I want you to stand up on your feet. I want you to feel the love that's growing inside of me!” Beyoncé said as she hit the stage.

After performing her song “Love on Top,” the singer threw her mic on the floor and unbuttoned her purple blazer to reveal her bump as she happily rubbed her tummy.

But some hours before her performance, Beyoncé already broke the news on the red carpet.
