GENUINELY, IT'S GREAT

Poor Jamie Cullum - he isn't a big hit with the ladies. Not that he minds, mind:

The 26-year-old, who is dating a Brazilian lawyer, was initially disappointed not to be bombarded with sexy advances from female fans.

But now he claims he's glad. He says: "I don't have to deal with that attention from women because it doesn't happen. Therefore it's very easy for me and my girlfriend to cope with."

Mind you, if it was us and our boyfriend was never off the bloody television, and he wasn't getting at least the odd pair of pants and a naked photo in the post, we'd be sucking a thoughtful tooth and wondering if, maybe, we'd made a decision without walking the full length of the counter. In a world where even Mike Read gets his own stalker, surely there has to be something especially off-putting about someone who gets no interest?
