Nigella loves hairy fellas

Celebrity chef Nigella Lawson is most certainly a yummy mummy but the glamorous foodie does not like everything in her life to be smooth around the edges.

In a recent interview with Esquire magazine, Lawson, 47, revealed that when it comes to men she likes nothing more than for them to have a generous helping of hair - and better still that they be a hunky footballer like Frank Lampard or John Terry.

The mum-of-two is not a fan of gents who preen themselves to the extent that they become rather feminine because she prefers "an animal". And what's more, she has a few tricks up her chef's sleeves in terms of men and relationships as she certainly isn't shy about how to please her hubby in the bedroom!

"Stockings never fail to make you feel sexy," she said. "Men like the whole strappy thing of suspenders, so I'll wear them. I have actually worn them with nothing but a pair of shoes in bed."

And asked what she finds attractive in a man she replied: "Hairiness. I like an animal. Hairy back. Hairy everywhere. If I was going to go for someone smooth, I may as well be a lesbian."

Lawson is married to art dealer Charles Saatchi and can currently be seen on BBC2 presenting her latest cookery series Nigella Express.
