Nicole Kidman and Naomi Watts stuffed their handbags with sweets on their way to the Oscars.

The two blondes looked stunning as they made their way up the red carpet hand-in-hand but stopped when they saw an interviewer with a tray of chocolates.

Nicole said: "Can we have some of these? We're going to need them, it's going to be a long night."

The actresses, both carrying glittering clutch bags stuffed as much candy as they could into their bags.

Nicole was wearing a bright red Balenciaga halter-neck gown with a big bow on her neck, while Naomi showed off her new baby bump in a pale yellow Escada dress with a black sash below her bust.
