Pregnant Beyonce Dazzles At Her Pulse Fragrance Launch

Celebrating the launch of her latest venture, Beyonce Knowles hit New York City's Penthouse at Dream Downtown to show off her new fragrance, Beyonce Pulse, earlier this evening (September 21).

The always-glam expecting singer took to the promotional event in a sequined blue blazer, which she paired with a matching frock and black peep-toe pumps.

Having just announced her baby news a few weeks ago, the glowing mom-to-be says she's having the time of her life looking for maternity wear, telling MTV, "I am having so much fun, it has been the most fun time now that [my pregnancy] has been announced and I don't have to, you know, it was really difficult to conceal."

Beyonce added, "Now that I can be proud and excited about it, I'm having so much fun shopping. It's great."

If you weren’t at Nokia Theater L.A. Live to experience it in person, the next best thing was logging on to your choice social network and shooting off your reaction. For millions, Twitter was their first destination.
Techland reports that fans hopped on the medium to express their shock, happiness, and such at a rate of 8,868 tweets per second. That beats news of Osama Bin Laden’s death in May, which drew in 5,106 tweets per second, and the Super Bowl, which earned 4,064 tweets.

Crazy, right? The question is why did so many people care so much? Well, for one, people looooooove them some Beyoncé. She’s a major pop star who, unlike most of her peers, has managed to steer clear of celeb shenanigans. Add the fact that she’s married to Jay-Z, arguably the best rapper ever, and that they both keep the details of their life together on the hush-hush and bam, here’s the answer: We’ve never seen them so excited to let a secret out of the bag!
