British singer Gary Barlow does not allow his children to watch explicit content in music videos.

Barlow is father of Daniel, Emily and Daisy - who are all under 14.

"Music is an expression and an art form and however they want to express it is fine. If you don't want to watch it or listen to it, there's an off button," thesun.co.uk quoted Barlow as saying.

"These singers are young, sexy girls - of course they are going to express themselves like that. But I don't let my kids watch it. I probably wouldn't let them watch anything like that. It's too sexual for them," he added.

Barlow's children are fond of music.

"Emily is a One Direction fan, there are posters on the bedroom wall. It takes me back. My son likes Eminem and Daisy likes Mr. Tumble," he said.
