Beyonce’s baby bombshell prompted Twitter users to smash records over the weekend.

The star revealed she was pregnant by showing off her bump on the red carpet at Sunday night’s MTV Video Music Awards.

Immediately, fans reacted around the world, with more than eight thousand tweets a SECOND being posted – a record for a single topic.

Meanwhile, we’re hearing Beyonce’s good news is news is already affecting her future projects.

She’s set to play the female lead in Clint Eastwood’s remake of the famed musical ‘A Star Is Born’ but Warner Bros has announced it’s now delayed production from its original February 2012 start.

The studio’s hoping to use the time Beyonce’s pregnant to cast a bigger lead male to star opposite her with Will Smith, Christian Bale, and Leonardo Dicaprio all rumored to be in the running.
