It turns out that British women actually prefer a chubby lover over a muscle hunk, and James Corden tops the list, as per a survey.
In a recent poll conducted to mark the release of comedy 'Bad Neighbours' starring Zac Efron and Seth Rogen on DVD, 3 quarters of girls admitted to feel more at ease with a guy who was a bit flabby, like actor Corden, 36, or chef Jamie Oliver, 39, and found people like Daniel Craig a "turn-off," the Daily Star reported.
According to the results, 58 percent of women didn't put men with six-pack abs as their first choice, 72 percent of females said they would rather go out with a chubby man so that they could freely order dessert, while 74 percent said they would be uncomfortable stripping off for someone like Greek god Adonis.
Relationship expert Tracey Cox said that though women like to admire a toned body, they don't want hunks as partners as they might not be "fun," and would probably spend more time in gym and following restricted diet.
In the survey, women also named singer Robbie Williams, 40, as their dream date.
