Blake Lively might have announced the weirdest pregnancy craving we have heard yet: organic hand-churned pumpkin-flavoured ice cream.
The Gossip Girl star also craves small batch pickles, according to Heat magazine, and she sends her husband, Ryan Reynolds, out in the middle of the night for them.

But plenty of other celebrities have revealed weird cravings during pregnancy as well, and we’re not just talking about the usual pickles and ice-cream desires.
Some cravings are sweet, like those of Hilary Duff, Jessica Simpson and Tina Fey. Others are sour (Natalie Portman, Pink). But many were downright random.
