Beyoncé Is Feeling ‘Very Empowered’ Pregnant

Beyoncé doesn’t just have that pregnancy glow. It’s more like a megawatt luminescence.

“It’s been great. I feel free. I feel very empowered,” the singer, 30, tells ET Canada of her pregnancy in an interview airing Thursday night.

After so many rumors over the years that she and Jay-Z were expecting, Beyoncé was a bit daunted by finally confirming that she was pregnant – but says the big reveal at the MTV Video Music Awards worked out great.

“I was just wondering how it’s going to be when one day I am pregnant and everyone’s like, ‘Oh God, I don’t want to hear this again,’” she says.

“But I’m happy that people were happy and I actually didn’t announce it in a statement. I said it’s better to just show everyone.”

Say cheese!

So how does Sweetin, 29, keep her sanity while raising a family? Plenty of caffeine and lots of patience!

“No need to stress out and freak out over little things,” she says of motherhood. “Eh, they spill stuff. They do stuff. Whatever! It’s cool.”

Now in her mid-30s, Maria Menounos still isn’t ready to have children. But she’s taking steps to hopefully ensure her fertility in the future — by freezing her eggs!

“I’m 33, and I decided that I know I have a couple of years of work I want to get to, and then do it,” the TV presenter tells Dr. Drew Pinsky in an interview airing Thursday on Dr. Drew’s Lifechangers.

“I figured this is kind of an insurance policy.”

Pinsky then invites Menounos’s parents to the stage, and she surprises them with the news.

“I am going to freeze my eggs,” she says.
