'Skins' actor embraces female attention
>Skins star Luke Pasqualino has revealed that he is thrilled by his new sex symbol status.

The 20-year-old actor, who plays Freddie Mclair on the Channel 4 drama series, has been bombarded with messages from female admirers since his debut episode aired earlier this year.

Speaking to Celebs On Sunday magazine, Pasqualino admitted: "It's great being a heartthrob, thank you very much. It's good, it's weird. I've been acting for a few years, but now this is different.

"I've had lots of attention, fan letters through the door, and Facebook has gone through the roof with messages and friend requests. I keep pictures that girls send me. And I hope to have a lot more soon."

Pasqualino also confirmed that he is keen to follow in the footsteps of Dev Patel, who landed a lead role in Slumdog Millionaire after finding fame in Skins.

He explained: "It happened to him so quickly. But does lightning strike twice? I guess it could happen."
