Thandie Newton: 'I don't flirt'

Thandie Newton has revealed that she never flirts with people.

The Crash star, who is married to writer Ol Parker, said that she has great relationships with her male friends because she doesn't manipulate them with sexuality.

Newton told the Daily Mail: "I've never dated an actor, just had the odd fling. Isn't that weird? I don't flirt with people - a long time ago, I stopped using my sexuality to have a relationship with people."

The 37-year-old actress continued: "I don't really think you get a sense of me, sexually, and that's why I have really great relationships with straight men."

Newton also admitted to having a crush on John Cusack, saying: "He's so sweet! John is smart; he's got great integrity and he's got that look. Like he would know what to do with you. He's a very sexy man. Even my mum was like, 'Ooh yes!'"
