Actress Kerry Washington is keeping the sex of her unborn baby a surprise.

The Django Unchained star showed off her baby bump in a Balenciaga gown on the red carpet at the 2014 Golden Globes on Sunday (12Jan14), but was keen to keep mum on the birth details.

The fiercely private actress, who married retired American football star Nnamdi Asomugha in secret last year (13), refused to tell reporters how far along she was with the pregnancy, and wouldn't discuss names.

But, when she was asked if she and Asomugha would be finding out the sex of the baby, she said, "No, keeping it a surprise."

And she told news show Extra that she'll be hiding her pregnancy on Tv drama Scandal, adding, "We're handling it... (Costume designer) Lyn Paolo and I are having a really good time in keeping the fashion elevated, but still making room for this little human."
