Allen: 'I'll stay single for two years'

Lily Allen has revealed that she is planning on staying single for two years.

The singer, who is currently number one with her new single 'The Fear', wants to focus on her career and launching her album in the States instead.

"I'm in that mindset where I realise I'm going to be so busy for the next two years. Even if I was to meet someone, I don't have the time," she told The Mirror.

The star conceded that a string of failed relationships with older men has made her unsure of what type of man she wants to meet in the future.

"There's not really any specific kind of guy I go for - I'm still trying to work out what my type is," she said.

"Maybe I should try somebody younger as the older man thing hasn't worked out so well."

Allen releases new album It's Not Me It's You on February 9.
