There it was—Angelina Jolie’s baby bump!

She did nothing to hide it today at the Film Independent's Spirit Awards in Santa Monica. No loose-fitting clothing. No holding oversize handbags over her midsection. Not even a coat. She wore a body-hugging black dress along with matching Jimmy Choo heels.

She and Brad Pitt arrived about 10 minutes or so before the show started. They made a quick dash down the blue carpet before heading inside to their table.

A nominee for Best Female Lead for her work in A Mighty Heart, Jolie sat with Pitt on one side of her and her manager Geyer Kosinski on the other. Their six tablemates appeared to be Industry suit types.

Jolie didn’t smile much, except when she laughed at some of host Rainn Wilson’s hilarious jokes. During the ceremony, Jolie and Pitt—who was also a nominee for Best Feature for A Mighty Heart (he was a coproducer of the film)—chatted with Don Cheadle and a pregnant Cate Blanchett and said a quick hello to Forest Whitaker when he walked by their table.

When Jolie lost to Juno’s Ellen Page, she smiled, nodded her head and clapped.

Shortly before the show ended, Pitt and some others at the table toasted with Stolichnaya vodka shots.

When the Spirit Awards were over, Pitt and Jolie made a beeline for Lust, Caution’s Tang Wei, who was also a nominee for Best Female Lead. Brangelina also talked with The Namesake and A Mighty Heart's Irfan Khan. But within seconds, Jolie and Pitt were surrounded by dozens of fellow showgoers snapping photos with cell phones and cameras. They stuck around for about 10 minutes before heading back to their car holding hands.

And now, I just gotta tell ya a quick little beauty thing about Mr. Pitt. I’m told that a colorist from the Neil George salon in Beverly Hills made a house call a couple of hours before the awards show to give him a touch-up.
