Jay-Z & Kanye West's 2011 MTV VMA Performanc

A last minute addition to the impressive lineup of artists taking the stage, Jay-Z and Kanye West teamed up at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards. The hip-hop powerhouse pair thrilled the audience at Nokia Theatre LA Live as they offered up a red, white and blue rendition of their hit single "Otis." Showing no signs of rumored tension, Jay and Kanye were both in the highest of spirits while looking directly at one another as they offered up the first single from their collaborative album "Watch the Throne". Making the night extra special, the performance came shortly after the "99 Problems" rapper's wife, Beyonce, joyously announced that she's carrying their first child.
