Lily Allen says fame is ruining her sex life.
The 23-year-old singer - who has previously been romantically linked to DJ Seb Chew and Chemical Brothers star Ed Simons - feels that her celebrity status affects her relationships.
She said: "I have had a couple of times when I've got to know someone over a few weeks and we've had a really great time at my London apartment, just watching TV and having sex.
"And then I get paranoid because I get like, 'I don't want to leave the house with you because I don't want us to be photographed together and for us to suddenly have to justify our relationship, when we don't know what it is yet."
Lily also revealed she would never want to date anyone that wasn't famous because she would think they are using her to make themselves famous.
She added to The Observer Music Monthly magazine: "If I meet someone who is not part of the showbiz industry, I think, 'Should I sleep with this person? Are they going to walk out of here and be straight on their phone?'
"Or you feel, 'Oh, it's gone naff', because they are secretly enjoying having their photograph taken. I guess that's why people go out with famous people."
