Westlife's Kian prefers curvy women

Westlife singer Kian Egan has said that he prefers the more curvaceous woman.

The boyband star claimed he found the media's fascination with skinny females strange, revealing he was a fan of "nice curves and big a****s".

He is quoted as saying: "It seems women nowadays think unless they're a size six then they're not pretty. It's sad and completely untrue.

"You look at women like Beyoncé Knowles and Jennifer Lopez and they're beautiful and sexy. They've got nice curves and big a***s!"

Egan revealed in January that he is engaged to former Hollyoaks actress Jodi Albert. The couple are expected to wed in 2009.
