Christina Aguilera has revealed that the subjects of her pregnancy cravings were Starbust and Skittles sweets.

"I actually took a picture of myself with my big belly in a little lingerie top, surrounded by bowls of the candy I like," said the singer.

Aguilera gave birth to her first child, Max, four months ago and has since lost three stone, she told US Weekly.

She added: "I had a huge craving for candy toward the end of the pregnancy, from Starbursts to Skittles."
