Justin Lee Collins: It's now acceptable to fancy a fatty

He says women like men with boobs and a gut

Podgy and proud: Justin Lee Collins

Justin Lee Collins thinks women are finally starting to appreciate tubby men.

The presenter, 33, says ladies can feel more comfortable with blokes who have big bellies.

‘With a real man, you can be the woman you want to be,’ he says.

‘You’ll never have to worry about putting on a few pounds, because next to us, you’ll always look svelte.’

Justin admits he never had much luck with the ladies when he was younger.

‘I didn’t chat up girls because I never dreamt they’d be interested in me,’ he tells Fabulous.

'I'm still in shock that my wife agreed to marry me. Back then, there weren't many women who fancied small, tubby men with bushy hair.

'But now it's acceptable to fancy a fatty.

Justin co-hosts The Sunday Night Project with Alan Carr tonight on Channel 4, at 10pm.
