Beyoncé made a sneaky arrival to the MTV VMAs in LA on Sunday night. She didn't walk the red carpet with the rest of the stars [1], instead choosing to make her way into The Forum a little later. Beyoncé posed for photos and greeted fans on her way into the show, where she's being honored with the Michael Jackson [2] Video Vanguard Award. She was also nominated for multiple awards including best female and video of the year and took the stage to perform as well. She shared behind-the-scenes snaps of her performance prep on her website, and despite the breakup rumors, they featured a photo of Jay Z. Further complicating the speculation was the most adorable moment between Jay, Beyoncé, and Blue [3] on stage.

It's no surprise that it was a big night for Beyoncé — she's had a history of memorable moments at the VMAs [4].
