"Dangerously in Love" singer, songwriter, record producer, and actress Beyonce revealed back in August at the VMAs that she was pregnant -  Internet is abuzz that she is now ready to give birth (or in some cases, that she already has).

Media Take Out reports that on Dec. 27, the staff at New York's St. Luke's Roosevelt Hospital were put on high alert about a high profile patient checking in to give birth. The hospital hasn't confirmed anything, but MTO says Beyonce and Jay-Z are who the entire hospital is "buzzing" about.

Speaking to On the Red Carpet, the British actress simply stated: “It’s Steven Spielberg,” and admitted she would have played a “meek mouse” if asked.

About the film she says, “I think it’s such a potent combination of an animal, an innocent animal and a savage, savage war. A savage and pointless war and putting this animal into the middle of it. And an animal we’ve learned to love, because we’ve learned to love him through the eyes of a boy. They’re like star-crossed lovers in a way, and we desperately want them to be together.”
