Leona Lewis: "I'd Date Someone Younger"

Star has fuelled Liam Payne romance rumours, calling him 'cute'...

Leona Lewis has appeared to shed some light on the rumours that she's dating One Direction star Liam Payne, calling him "cute" in a new interview.

When asked about his comments, Lewis told Look magazine: "It's very flattering to get compliments like that. It's cute. If you have a bond with someone [age] doesn't come into it.

"I'd date someone younger or older, age doesn't matter to me. Or looks, really - it's all about maturity."
Speaking of her ideal man, The X Factor star said: "I like someone who can take the reins, who knows what they want and is strong with me.
"I'm quite fiery, so they have to be able to handle that. But I do like to feel protected. Also, being artistic and spiritual. That's what's important to me. And I'd never trust a man who can't dance."
The 27-year old went on to admit that she hopes to settle down in just two years time, explaining: "I never used to think I'd get married, but then at my brother's wedding [in 2010] it hit me that I do [want to], and since then I've had loads of ideas.
"I know exactly where I want to get married, it's a beautiful place in Europe. I'd like to be married just before I'm 30, when I'm 29, but I don't know if it will happen."
