Cheryl Cole: 'I've seen Harry Styles in boxer shorts"
Quote:
Cheryl Cole has claimed to have seen Harry Styles in his underwear.
The A Million Lights artist, a judge on The X Factor the same year One Direction competed, said that she understands Styles's appeal.
When asked by Sugarscape whether she would date the 18-year-old, she quipped: "Harry? I've seen Harry in his boxer shorts."
The singer added: "Harry's a little brother type, but I get it; the girls go crazy for him - and the women."
Meanwhile, Cole - whose new single 'Call My Name' is on course to become the fastest-selling single of 2012 in the UK - joked that she takes some of the credit for One Direction's global success.
She laughed: "I took credit for [One Direction] on Twitter - I twittered the boys, saying, 'Remember who really mentored you when Simon [Cowell] wasn't around!'
"There was a couple of weekends where Simon was poorly and I had to mentor them, so I take full responsibility for all their success - and over the pond, I think it's all me."
