Christina Aguilera has revealed that she is afraid of the dark.

The Burlesque star, who split from husband Jordan Bratman in October, told The Sunday Times that she does not consider herself a person who is easily unnerved.

Aguilera explained: "In the big picture I'm pretty fearless, but I am afraid of the dark. I sleep with the light on. Or the TV. It's comforting."

She continued: "I wasn't scared of the dark as a child. But as I got older and started spending time in hotel rooms it was a comfort to keep the TV on so that you felt that you were not so alone."
