Mark Ronson confused by sex symbol label

Mark Ronson has admitted that he finds it strange when the press refer to him as a sex symbol.

The music producer, who is currently dating underwear model Daisy Lowe, claimed that he does not attract enough attention from women to justify the label.

"It's quite funny, that whole thing, I just find it a bit weird," Ronson told the Belfast Telegraph. "I mean, it's not as if I'm being chased by hoards of women when I walk down the street, say the way Justin Timberlake would be. And I don't have women throwing their underwear at me when I'm on stage."

Ronson also spoke about his friendship with Amy Winehouse, revealing that she does not talk to him about her troubled lifestyle. The pair worked together on Amy's Back To Black album before teaming up for their own version of The Zutons' track 'Valerie'.

He said: "Obviously when you work with someone, when you have a partnership with them, the way I did with Amy, then you become friends. Of course I have time for her, but it's not like she comes to me for advice or anything like that. But we are friends and I really hope we can work together again."
