Murs sister: 'Olly needs a girlfriend'

Olly Murs needs to find himself a serious girlfriend, according to his sister.

The X Factor contestant, who was previously linked to Laura Henderson from rejected girl band Project A, has reportedly not been in a proper relationship for over three years.

"He's always thought that his friends were better looking than him, so he kind of took on the comedy role and was the one who was a 'laugh'," Fay Murs told Heat.

"I don't think he gives himself enough credit for how attractive he is. He hasn't had a serious girlfriend for about three or four years now, so I'd love him to meet someone."

Fay added that Olly has a reputation for being fussy about the types of girls he chooses.

"I think he's got quite high standards and he likes girls with nice hair. So any ladies who like him should make sure their hair looks nice," she said.
