Pregnant singer Regina Spektor, who is nominated for an award at the Grammys for the first time, will miss the awards show.

Spektor, 33, announced on her Facebook page that she would not be able to attend the event because she was "super pregnant", reported Ace Showbiz.

"I was so happy to be nominated for my first Grammy! I would have definitely gone to LA for all the fun, in a party dress and with bells on, if I wasn't so super pregnant at the moment," she wrote.

"Jack and I are very excited to be expecting a brand new human together! I've been spending most of my time writing songs, dreaming up the new record, cooking soup, eating soup, and being very grateful for the people in my life- family, friends, and you..."
 

The singer/songwriter, who is nominated in the category of Best Song Written for Visual Media for 'Orange Is the New Black' theme song 'You've Got Time', thanked everyone for the nomination.

"I'll see you from the couch," she added.

Spektor and her husband Jack Dishel tied the knot in 2011.
