Gwen Stefani and her husband Gavin Rossdale are already planning for their unborn baby's future - they're painting the nursery black to ensure the newborn grows up to be a "goth".

The couple is expecting their second child this year, but have chosen not to find out the sex of the new arrival.

And, instead of opting for more traditional nursery colours like blue, pink or yellow, they are painting the new baby's room black so the decor will be suitable for either sex.

And former Bush frontman Rossdale is excited about their unusual decorating plans.

He tells Britain's OK! magazine, "We don't know if it's a boy or a girl. Plus we are going to put him in a black room. It'll be a goth baby so it doesn't matter if it is a boy or a girl."

Stefani and Rossdale already have one son together, two-year-old Kingston.
