Pregnant Beyonce and her husband Jay-Z have so far kept mum over the sex of their new baby.
But it seems their big secret may have accidentally come out.
Beyonce's best friend Kelly Rowland yesterday let slip in an interview that the Crazy In Love singer is expecting a little girl next year.

'I have no idea what I'm going to buy Beyoncé at the baby shower because Jay is going to buy that little girl every single thing possible,' the 30-year-old singer said.
Speaking at the Cosmopolitan Ultimate Women of the Year Awards 2011 in London, Kelly added about the baby: 'She won't be spoiled but she will be very well looked after.
'I'll be on hand for babysitting duties and I'm actually very good with messy diapers!'
