39 year old rapper Lil' Kim has revealed she is expecting her first child.
She told Us Weekly magazine: "I'm so excited! I'm a few months along. I can't wait to be a mum!"
The 'Magic Stick' hit maker turned up at New York Fashion Week yesterday sporting a huge baby bump beneath her clingy dress.
She later took to the stage at the Blonds Fashion Week after party in New York to sing 'Lighters Up', which she dedicated to the late Notorious B.I.G.
She told the crowd: "It's also going to be Biggie's birthday and the anniversary of his death soon so we [as she points to her belly] love you."
The brunette beauty is showing no signs of slowing down and is adamant the baby won't stop her working.
She said: "I'm still going to work. I'm still going to be hardcore, the baby has made me even more of a beast!"
Lil' Kim has decided to keep the identity of her child's father private at this time, but she was last romantically linked to professional boxer Floyd Mayweather, 36, and the pair were still dating last September.
