'Do You Want The Truth Or Something Beautiful' singer Paloma Faith has recalled a cute incident that saw One Direction's Niall Horan suggest marriage after meeting her.

She explained to the Daily Star that the Irish heartthrob told his friend that he would marry her one day after they bumped into each other at a social gathering:

"I’ve been proposed to by One Direction. Well that’s the rumour somebody started. I met Niall from 1D at a party. He was lovely, but when I walked away he turned to a friend of mine and said: ‘I’m going to marry that girl’."

“Now everybody thinks he’s actually proposed," she added.

Faith (27) also revealed that she doesn't seem to get a lot of attention from men and wonders if they're intimidated by her bold style: "I don’t get approached by men that much. I think men are intimidated or get the wrong impression of me."

“Maybe they don’t flirt with me because of my perceived image. But when people get to know me, they see I’m not a monster. In fact, I seem to get more interest in America – so I’m taking myself there after the tour.”
