Kelly Rowland looked back at one of her most hilarious, yet humiliating slip-ups in a recent appearance on the "Yeah, I F**k That Up" podcast.

Back in 2011, Beyonce and Jay-Z famously revealed they were pregnant with their first child, Blue Ivy, although during that time, no one in the public knew the baby's gender.

During her interview with MissInfo.tv, the Destiny's Child member accidentally shared: "I have no idea what I'm going to buy Beyoncé at the baby shower because Jay is going to buy that little girl every single thing possible. She won't be spoiled but she will be very well looked-after."

"Oh my God. When I made a mistake and told the sex of [Beyoncé]'s baby when she was pregnant with Blue [Ivy]," Rowland recalled. "That was the worst moment ever. The worst moment ever."

Kelly Rowland Owns Up to Her Mistake

According to the singer, she did not even know she made the slip-up until she saw it all over the headlines the very next day.

"I felt terrible because it's not my news. It was honestly the worst. It wasn't my news to share, and I didn't meant it like that," she explained. "The 'she' just kind of slipped out. I was like, 'Uh oh.'"

Rowland did nit disclose if her slip-up put herself in hot water with Beyonce and Jay-Z, but given that it was supposed to be a secret, she might have been in a little trouble.

Kelly Rowland's Slip-Up Interview

Aside from her interview with MissInfo.tv, Rowland also slipped up in another interview, this time, with Bang Showbiz.

When asked what she planned to give the couple's baby for the upcoming baby shower, she replied, "I don't know... I think her dad is gonna give her everything anyways, all I can give her is love."

Rowland did manage to redeem herself the next time around, during Beyonce's pregnancy with the twins, Sir and Rumi.

The two are close friends, and fortunately, Rowland's slip-up did not ruin their friendship. Their deep roots and bond that go way back during their Destiny's Child days proved to be everlasting.

In fact, Rowland was present during one of the "Single Ladies" singer's shows during her highly anticipated "Renaissance Tour."
