    In a behind the scenes video Beyonce reveals she was six months pregnant when her Countdown video was filmed in September, meaning the baby could be due as early as next month

    In a behind the scenes video Beyonce has revealed she was six months pregnant when her Countdown video was filmed in September, meaning the baby could be due as early as next month.

    BEYONCE'S PREGNANCY STYLE PARADE

    Beyonce posted the behind the scenes video to her YouTube account yesterday, which saw the beaming mum-to-be explain that she is shooting her new video, Countdown.

    In the 31-second clip the star says: 'Right now I am actually shooting the video of Countdown, and I am six months pregnant, pretending that my stomach is flat in body suits!'

    However, having shot the video on September 23, Beyonce may have inadvertently given the game away as to her baby's due date.

    Being six months pregnant in September could mean the baby is due as early next month.

    Beyonce and hubby Jay Z's new arrival was originally expected to have been due in February next year. 

    The 30-year-old singer first revealed her pregnancy at the MTV Video Music Awards in August, but it was thought she was just three months pregnant at the time.

    The sex of Beyonce's baby may also be out as earlier this month, best friend Kelly Rowland let slip that Bey was expecting a little girl.

    In an interview the X Factor judge and ex-Destiny's Child band member revealed, '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.'

    Kelly then added, 'She won't be spoiled but she will be very well looked after.'

    So it seems we could be celebrating with pink balloons for Bey and Jay before Christmas...
