2012 MTV Video Music Awards: Amber Rose confirms pregnancy on the red carpet

It seems Amber Rose has used 2012 MTV Video Music Awards to announce her own happy news to the world: she’s expecting.

Amber Rose, 28, dressed more modestly than usual in a full-length fitted black lace gown, put a tender hand on her growing stomach as she joined fiancé, rapper Wiz Khalifa, on the red carpet.

With her blonde crop slicked with a deep side part, Amber Rose went for a monochromatic make-up look, her platinum hair blending in to her milky complexion and smile swathed with a nude shade of lipstick.

She lined her eyes in charcoal black and wore only a pair of stud earrings and her glittering engagement ring from Wiz Khalifa.

Wiz Khalifa held the hand of his bride-to-be in a three-piece suit he accented with gold jewelry and a pair of dark sunglasses.

Twenty-four-year-old Wiz Khalifa, whose real name Cameron Jibril Thomaz, announced they set to wed in March when he posted on Twitter: “She Said Yes!!!”

Amber Rose, who catapulted to fame while dating Kanye West, then posted a snap of her stunning oval-shaped diamond ring to her own page and said she was the “happiest woman in the world”.

However, online reports claim the budding pregnancy means Amber Rose and rapper Wiz Khalifa may tie the knot sooner than they originally intended.

They have now moved the date to October rather than the winter nuptials they had planned.

The couple has played coy on the rumors, and recently Wiz Khalifa told MTV.com: “I’m saying here that is not what people think it is. But, she will have my baby in life, and you guys will know when she’s pregnant. But it’s not the time now for people to start going crazy.”

While the pregnancy was apparently not planned the couple is reportedly delighted to have a little one on the way.

Meanwhile, a source told RadarOnline: “Amber and Wiz unexpectedly got pregnant, but they’re really happy to be starting a family together.”

Amber Rose’s baby is due in January, according to reports; it will be the first child for the couple.

The couple’s appearance yesterday follows last year’s dramatic unveiling by Beyoncé, who set a tweets-per-second record on Twitter when she revealed at the VMAs she and husband Jay-Z were expecting after a high-energy performance of Love On Top, which she finished with a drop of the mic, freeing a hand to open her jacket and rub her rounded stomach.

Amber Rose and Wiz Khalifa could have more than a baby on the way to celebrate depending on how this evening goes – the rapper is up for Best Pop Video for his collaboration with Maroon 5, Payphone. The pair is facing off against One Direction (What Makes You Beautiful), Fun. feat. Janelle Monae (We Are Young), Rihanna (We Found Love) and Justin Bieber (Boyfriend) in the category.
