This year’s MTV Video Music Awards may have sparked its usual share of social media chatter but as far as excitement that rose to last year’s Beyonce-has-a-baby-bump level, it fell short. The announcement during the broadcast that Wiz Khalifa and Amber Rose are expecting a child was happy news, sure. But as previously noted in this blog, it’s no Bey-baby.

Overshadowed by the Democratic National Convention — which boasted its own killer performances (Foo Fighters, Mary J. Blige) and, arguably, a bigger rock star (President Obama) than anyone nominated for a Moon Man trophy — the 2012 VMAs achieved a buzz factor of a 4 or 5, on par with the 2008 VMAs. Maybe election years really aren’t good for MTV trophy shows.

They didn't lie. No one there has Beyonce's star power. Bey's pregnancy reveal will be remembered in years to come. Nothing that happened last night will tbh
