Is Kerry Washington dropping hints?

On Saturday, the Scandal star wore a custom blue and peach silk Thakoon gown with a matching Prada clutch to the 45th Annual NAACP Image Awards at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium in Pasadena, Calif.

And the mom-to-be — who has yet to reveal her baby’s sex — glowed in her romantic-style ensemble accented with a beautiful fishtail side braid and soft makeup.

Not only did she win big on the red carpet, but the expectant actress (who is due in late spring) also scored during the show.

Washington took home the outstanding actress in a drama series award for her hit show, which also won outstanding drama series.

Absent from the red carpet was Washington’s husband, retired NFL cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha. The couple, who married in late June, revealed their baby news in October.

“Kerry and Nnamdi are ecstatic,” a source told PEOPLE.

Simply beautiful.

She always looks great. And I can’t wait for scandal to come back this week!

“And the mom-to-be, who has yet to reveal what she’s having, . . .” She’s having a baby.

Kerry announced her pregnancy on the red carpet of the Golden Globes but why should People get any part of this story correct. Yes, she looked radiant and happy on the red carpet with all of her loved ones in attendance.

@hmm, the Golden Globes were three weeks ago. By then, I think folks knew she was pregnant. I don’t follow her that much, but I think she announced long before the beginning of February. She does look happy though and this outfit is much better than that rather unfortunate crop top.

She announced the pregnancy in October.

Always beautiful and classy and congrats on the win as you and the cast are most deserving.

what’s wrong with her mouth?

hmm- She talked about the pregnancy herself for the first time at the GGs (thus officially confirming it- though it was already obvious to anyone with eyes, of course! ;)), but it’s been known since October (which is when PEOPLE first reported it, as others have said).

Anyway, she looks great! BTW, I have to chuckle at the story about her baby shower over on the main PEOPLE site. They say it appears she hasn’t yet told her family and friends her baby’s sex, due to the fact that the gifts (which were apparently all gender-neutral) were wrapped in a variety of colors (including both pink and blue).

Perhaps, PEOPLE…but did you ever think that she may also not want the MEDIA to know the gender and therefore asked her family and friends to buy gender neutral items and wrap in whatever color they wanted. Or that Kerry HERSELF doesn’t know the gender (not everyone chooses to find out before birth, as shocking as that may be!)

Don’t get me wrong, I like PEOPLE. But sometimes I think they can be a bit silly! 🙂

She is a stunning looking woman.
