While pop diva Beyonce has spoken glowingly about her role in the Clint Eastwood-directed remake of famed musical ‘A Star Is Born’ in recent months (calling it the ‘biggest opportunity of her life’), the ‘Baby Boy’ singer is now making headlines for another expected birth.

And while the music world is still abuzz after her pregnancy confirmation at the MTV Video Music Awards last nite, Deadline reports Warner Bros has opted to delay production on the already delayed feature film.  Though production was originally set to start as early as February 2012, reports indicate Warner Bros is hoping to use the time to to cast an appropriate lead male.  With Will Smith, Christian Bale, and Leonardo Dicaprio all names rumored to be sought for the role, fans should expect an announcement in the coming months.

Blige.  Said to have been titled ‘Best of Both Girls’ – a play off the Jay-Z/R.Kelly ‘Best of Both Worlds’ album, the Ill Na Na shared news on the project and what caused its halt.

Although there were many buzzworthy moments from last night’s MTV Video Music Awards, one of the highlights was undoubtedly comeback kid’s Chris Brown‘s stage-blazing performance.  Though cheered on by celebrities and fans alike, one person didn’t look too entertained – rap mogul Jay-Z.
