The 'Sing' hitmaker, who confirmed earlier this year that he is dating someone out of the public eye, said laughter is the key to a successful relationship, reported Contactmusic.
Asked his favourite quality in a woman, he said, "A sense of humour. I think that's key for any long-lasting relationship.
"(Have I ever dated anyone with no sense of humour?) I have more sense than that, but I speak to women with no sense of humour quite a lot. I met this model last year. Her meal for the day was a cotton ball soaked in Diet Coke. I don't want to be friends with somebody like that," he said.
"(Could I love someone who didn't love my music?) Yeah, yeah. I think there's a difference between loving the work and respecting it. If I dated, I don't know, a horse jockey--I'm not a massive fan of horse races, but I could still respect what the person does.
