On Wednesday, Beyoncé sent us all into shock and hysteria when she announced that she and husband Jay Z are expecting twins. The announcement included a photo that we’re sure is set to become the most iconic pregnancy announcement photo ever, but this isn’t Bey’s first time at the rodeo.

Back when rumors were swirling that Bey was pregnant with Blue Ivy, she took the stage at the VMAs to confirm it. During a performance of “Love On Top,” Bey unbuttoned her sparkly, sequined blazer and showed the world her baby bump.

So, while news of Bey’s pregnancy with twins is quite the unexpected and joyful surprise, we’re not surprised that the Lemonade singer announced it in such a spectacular way.
