Oritse Williams loves older women.

The 21-year-old JLS singer has a crush on 'Desperate Housewives' actress Vanessa Williams and admits he often finds himself attracted to "cougars" as they are more decisive than younger girls.

He said: "I'd love a proper cougar like Vanessa Williams - I'm sure she could teach me a lesson or two.

"I dated a 30 year old when I was 20 and it was a fun relationship. Older girls know what they want.

As well as a preference for older women, Oritse also likes girls who take a unique approach to grabbing his attention.

He explained: "It was my birthday and I saw a big parcel with shiny red wrapping outside the house.

"I ripped off the paper and a girl jumped out in a sexy French maid's outfit with nipple tassels. I was very impressed."

Oritse has previously admitted he is looking for love after spending so much time focusing on making his career a success.

He said recently: I'm single, ready to date. I'm super-ambitious, so I've been caught up in JLS for ages. I'm having the greatest time, but maybe it's time I got a bit of romance. I want a down-to-earth, fun-loving girl."
