To have a crush on James Arthur

Beat some sense into me, I’ve also started following him on Instagram, this is a big deal for me as I don’t even have Facebook!
I loved his voice on X factor years ago, thought he was pig ugly then though 😂

I believe his mumsnet nickname on the X Factor threads was pinhead.

Not my cuppa but each to her own! ☕️

YAB totally U. Nobody has a crush on James Arthur. You can do better than that Shock

YouWereRight · 02/03/2019 21:48

He looks like a sloth, but each to their own.

YaBU

He looks like he's made out of was.
Plus he's an arrogant arsehole

Bloody autocorrect

ILoveMaxiBondi · 02/03/2019 21:52

Does not compute

FiveGoMadInDorset · 02/03/2019 21:52

He looks like he wants a part in the next Zoolander

Mummyshark2019 · 02/03/2019 21:53

Yes! He does look like a sloth haha

MumsyJ · 02/03/2019 21:54

You having a laugh OP? 😳

Livedandlearned · 02/03/2019 21:54

He sings in a slur that sounds like he's had a bottle of vodka.

lottielady · 02/03/2019 21:56

I used to be on the X-Factor threads back in the day.

Someone described him as having a ‘mouth like an arsehole with teeth’.

Which actually he does.

Faster · 02/03/2019 21:57

He always looks like he’s had the new girl at the make up counter do his face before going out to me.

Bluestitch · 02/03/2019 21:57

I do too, because I think he's super talented so it makes me find him attractive!

RedRiverShore · 02/03/2019 22:00

When threads appear on here about who people secretly fancy, a lot worse people that James Arthur are named Grin

CoperCabana · 02/03/2019 22:01

I think he is neither talented nor attractive. He makes me feel a bit queasy.

Different strokes though...

Randomposter · 02/03/2019 22:02

I wouldn’t say no.

CluedoAddict · 02/03/2019 22:05

I like his music but he looks like he needs a good dettol bath.

Chlo1674 · 02/03/2019 22:05

He’s got a dreamy voice. Looks wise he reminds me of Frank Sidebottom

Auramigraine · 02/03/2019 22:06

I never liked him on X factor, thought he was arrogant and cocky. Last year or so though I’ve warmed to him, maybe because of his music and being so open about struggling with anxiety, he’s deffo someone I have a soft spot for too!!

bobstersmum · 02/03/2019 22:07

I don't fancy him myself but I think some of the comments about his appearance are really cruel! I hope all those people slating him are absolutely perfect looking.

MorganKitten · 02/03/2019 22:19

His homophobia makes it a no from the get go

Butchyrestingface · 02/03/2019 22:20

The heart wants what the heart wants, OP. Wink
