He has been spotted out and about with a few ladies recently but James Arthur has confessed that he fancies Tulisa Contostavlos.
The X Factor finalist revealed that the former N-Dubz star is the sort of girl he would usually go for during an interview with LOOK magazine: “Tulisa is really strong and very hot, she’s definitely my type.”
James Arthur says that X Factor judge Tulisa is his type.
Unfortunately for him she is said to be dating Newcastle footballer Danny Simpson. Although it seems she and every other woman on the planet has missed a trick as James modestly said he is a great boyfriend.
“I’m a great lover. When I’ve got a girlfriend I like to be with them as much as possible and I’m very affectionate… It’s all about respect. I’m not going to treat a woman like a piece of meat.”
And Tulisa isn’t the only one on the judging panel that James thinks is rather tasty as he once found it hard to concentrate on what Nicole was saying: “It took me a while to get past how beautiful Nicole is before I could listen to what she was saying to me!”
He must have a thing for ladies that put their arms out!
He added: “But we’re buddies now. It takes her half an hour to make a point what with her metaphors, but she’s inspirational and she has me in stitches.”
Not that James has much time for relationships at the moment anyway. He is up against Christopher Maloney and Jahmene Douglas in the final of the X Factor this weekend.
