Pregnant rumors continue to surround Kerry Washington after she was spotted hiding from paparazzi when she arrived to the set of Jimmy Kimmel Live! Thursday.

The 36-year-old Scandal star who recently wed NFL baller Nnamdi Asomugha over the summer was snapped by photographers hiding behind her assistant when she showed up to the studios and even looked hesitant when she got out of her car. Reports indicated she made a swift exit as she pulled her car service all the way up to the back door so she could walk in without paparazzi noticing her.

Nonetheless, Washington looked amazing on Kimmel's show in a lavender elastic waist smock style dress that seemed to be hiding her baby bump. She's been recently spotted in more dresses like the one she wore Thursday.

On the show, she spoke to Kimmel about her excitement about hosting Saturday Night Live. Washington also used her forearm to cover up her stomach while chatting with the host. From the looks of it, Washington didn't want her stomach to be shot, as cameras only shot her upper waist.

Enstars reported earlier that the "Worlds Best Dressed Woman" recently covered the November 2013 issue of Essence magazine without her wedding ring on. She revealed to the publication that she rarely drinks alcoholic beverages, with the exception of a few girls-night outs.

"I drink maybe twice a year. I would be with my three best friends from high school or my girlfriends from the show," she said, adding that it would involve "lots of wine."
