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’m in heaven, waiting for my little sunshine. I can't wait to be a mum!"
The 'Magic Stick' hit maker turned up at New York Fashion Week sporting a huge baby bump beneath her clingy dress.
Kim has had to change her notoriously outrageous wardrobe to accommodate her growing bump. She added: "I can't wear corsets and all my favourite sexy clothes [anymore]. But it's a very beautiful thing and I'm so thrilled."
Even though she has been wearing more casual attire, Kim insists she still looks as glamorous as ever. Listing what she's been wearing, she added: "Sweatpants, my comfy pyjamas, but mainly my comfy loose fitting sweats, but you know they're cute."
The star says she's already getting cravings, but is making sure she gets plenty of vegetables. She said: "[I'm eating] Pizza! Everyday, pizza! A lot of vegetable pizza, because before I didn't eat vegetable pizza as much, but now I'm craving the vegetables."
The rapper 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 and Musican Mr. Papers who she was linked to in 2012.
Mr.Papers has taken credit for impregnating the singer and he has been bombarded with congratulatory messages on Twitter from his pals.
His friend, Von Killpatrick, wrote: "Congrats to @MR_Papers!!! He gave Kim what she wanted for years. I'm so happy for both of them. (sic)"
Another pal, Donte, added: "Heard All LiL Kim Fans are Looking For My Dawg @Mr_Papers LoL
