Beyoncé, who was receiving the
night's prestigious Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award, looked taken
aback (and delighted) when her spouse, carrying their little girl, came
onstage following her lengthy performance to acknowledge her latest
achievement.
Jay Z, with tears in his eyes,
kissed his wife, while she called him "my beloved." However, it was Blue
Ivy who truly stole the scene. If the toddler herself wasn’t adorable
enough in her darling awards-show-worthy dress, she further captured the
hearts of America by simply uttering: “Mommy!”
Cue: Heartmelt.
“I’m so full,” a visibly moved Beyoncé noted. “I’m so blessed…”
Rumors of trouble in paradise or
not, Beyoncé was undoubtedly the main attraction of the entire evening,
sparking social media chatter about when she'd appear in the telecast.
The audience did have to cool its heels a good two hours before Queen
Bey took the stage, but the superstar made sure her entrance was worthy
of the wait.
“MTV, welcome to my world,” the
diva calmly stated to roars from the audience. While Taylor Swift may
have grabbed attention on the red carpet for her ultra-short romper
look, Beyoncé neatly showed Swift how it’s done, being a well-documented
veteran of the one-piece look. At this event, she chose a sparkling
mirrored version with multicolored panels, giving her the look of a
stained-glass window.
She then competently put the
crowd in the palm of her hand with a lengthy a medley of songs
comprising her self-titled album released last December, including
"Mine," "Haunted," "No Angel," "Blow," "Drunk in Love," "Rocket,"
"Partition," "I Been in Love," "Flawless," and "XO" (featuring none
other than the heart-stealing Blue Ivy).
The 2014 VMAs were held Aug. 24 at Los Angeles's Forum.
