Tinder, Match.com, OkCupid, are all popular dating apps that people use to either find someone to do something fun with, or in some cases, spend the rest of their lives with; just don’t expect to see James Arthur on any of those apps. He says, he’s afraid of being catfished, or much worse!

He told The Sun, “I can’t go on Tinder, I’ll get in trouble .I’m afraid that women could fool me on there – some of them would be press or something. Or that there’d be women who want to kill me!”

But there’s a good chance he won’t even need a dating app to find a partner, that is if he becomes the movie star that he aspires to be.

He talked to The Sun about his Hollywood aspirations, “I want to become a Hollywood film star. I genuinely would love to be in some movies. I am a massive film geek and I love movies…I have been through, and seen so many dramas and traumas, and been in so many situations that I can probably interpret a few different characters.”

He added, “I am even trying to remove some tattoos so I am not type-casted.I have been banging on about it to my management for ages. I will always make music, but I really want to kick off my acting career”.

As for who are some of his favourite actors, James said, “My favourite actors are Cillian Murphy and Tom Hardy. I love Shane Meadows’ work. I come from that working-class place so I think I would be good at that.”
