Tulisa Contostavlos claims she looking for a man with a "massive pair of mental balls" to deal with her.

Tulisa Contostavlos wants a man with a "massive pair of balls".

The 'Young' singer - who has previously dated her N-Dubz bandmate Fazer and actor Jack O'Connell - claims she has never been a "needy" girlfriend and but she requires a guy who is mentally tough enough to deal with her every day.

She said: "There were stories doing the rounds that implied I was 'needy' in relationships. Me? Needy? Never!

"I'm an independent lady - I don't chase after guys and constantly call and text them. To suggest I'm a bunny boiler was really insulting as I'm the total opposite. Where boys are concerned it's usually the other way around.

"I want a man who has a massive pair of balls - not physically, but mentally! He needs to have bigger balls than me without feeling the need to prove the need that he has bigger balls. It's important that he accepts that I have balls too!"

The 24-year-old pop beauty - who has returned to TV screens on the judging panel of 'The X Factor' - thinks it is misleading for people to believe she is a "tough nut" and claims she is actually a very sensitive person.

She added to XFactor.ITV.com: "People think I'm this tough nut who can't be cracked. I am a strong person but I have an extremely soft and sensitive side as my friends will testify."
