Watch: 2012 EMAs: Malin Akerman

Malin Akerman added host to her long list of talents Saturday evening at the 2012 Environmental Media Awards, where she hit the red carpet before taking the stage to host the event and talked not only about her recently announced baby news, but how the tabloids knew about her pregnancy and what she compares early stages of pregnancy to.

The Rock of Ages actress shared she "couldn't be more excited and happy" about expecting baby number one with her hubby of 10 years, Roberto Zincone.

As for how the news broke? Malin revealed that the press knew before she could've anticipated, adding: "I don't know how in the world, but tabloid magazines got a hold of me when I was only four weeks."

So just how does Malin describe pregnancy? For her, well—being hungover!

The actress laughed: "It's kind of like when you are hungover…but it's that kind of feeling where you want to eat everything greasy…so the diet is great i love it."

Speaking of diet, the green actress did note she's "gonna teach it all I know...[and] make it as green as possible." 

As for if Malin and Roberto are going to learn the sex of their baby, she shared: "[we're] still debating if we want to find out or keep it a surprise…we're both really eager…but we haven't quite made that decision yet." As for names: "We're all set on the girls names but the boys names we have a difference of opinions. "

 Here's to the future little Malin!
