Elsa Pataky, Kerry Washington and Olivia Wilde all looked like they were ready to pop on the red carpet

Three pregnant celebrities showcased their beautiful bellies at the star-studded awards show this year - and each mum-to-be rocked a gorgeous pregnancy glow.

Chris Hemsworth's wife Elsa Pataky - who's pregnant with baby no. 2 and 3 (twins!) - flaunted her sizeable bump in a beaded Elie Saab gown.

Let's hope these lovely ladies each got a foot massage once they finally kicked off those high heels...
