Minnie Driver's baby bump steals the spotlight at red carpet premiere

There was no shortage of A-list stars vying for attention, but all eyes were on Minnie Driver's big baby bump at the LA premiere of Hancock last night.

The 38-year-old star, who wore a thigh-skimming, off the shoulder number, revelled in the spotlight, proudly nursing her belly as she sashayed along the red carpet.

Curves ahead: Minnie says she will be in no rush to shed her pregnancy weight after the child is born

She was joined at the event by the film's leading man Will Smith - who plays an alcoholic superhero - as well as his co-stars Charlize Theron and Jason Bateman.

While Minnie was more than happy to put her bump on display, she is less forthcoming when it comes to the baby's father.

She still hasn't revealed his identity, saying again this week: 'He's not in the public eye and he shouldn't have to deal with all that stuff. It really is private.'

Family matters: Hancock star Will Smith with eldest son Trey, wife Jada Pinkett-Smith, and Jaden and Willow

Asked if the mystery man will be involved in the child's upbringing, she replied 'Sure. He's going to be a dad.

She continued: 'I'm not married and I'm not getting married to this person. But I am taking full responsibility for being a mother. Everyone is grown up and kind of cool.

'I just want to create as happy and as loving an environment as I can. I've got this amazing family so I'm not really worried. But I don't know what's going to happen. I take life moment by moment.'

Going with the flow: Charlize Theron, with boyfriend Stuart Townsend, wore a glamorous gown for the occasion

Minnie, who is due in August, plans to take around six months off work and insists she'll be in no rush to lose her pregnancy weight.

She told Hello! magazine: 'I don't know what this celebrity obsession of getting your pre-baby body back in the shortest time possible is all about.

'It's the most unhealthy thing and it's horrifying that you should somehow get back into a size two a couple of weeks after giving birth.

'So plan on seeing me podgy and fat, knocking around in Malibu and proud of it.'
