Olly Murs: "I haven't dated a girl in a very long time"

Olly Murs has admitted that he hasn't dated a woman in a while - and has suggested a lot of females vie for his attention because of his fame.

Speaking to Bang Showbiz, the Xtra Factor presenter admitted that he often gets a number of girls "throwing themselves" at him - but he usually ignores it because they're not always interested in his personality. He said:

"I get these girls throwing themselves at me, but nine times out of 10 they're really, really good looking girls that wouldn't even talk to me otherwise, so I kind of just ignore it really."

"I haven't dated a girl in a very long time. You become a public figure, people know you on the television, people know more about you than you do about yourself, so if you take a girl out on a date and she obviously already knows you from the telly, knows your music, knows things about you. Sometimes you just kind of know she's there for your money or your fame, and that's upsetting."
