Alexandra Burke Doesn't Have Time for Love.

The 'Start Without You' singer - who has been linked to the likes of Usher and rugby ace Danny Cipriani in the past - confessed she would like to find a special someone who can make her smile.

She explained: "I haven't got time for a boyfriend but love interests are exciting. Someone who can make me smile and understand my schedule. And shop for food with me and take me to see a movie."

The 22-year-old singer - who won Simon Cowell's talent search show 'The X Factor' in 2008 - admitted she is so busy she doesn't even get to see as much of her close family as she would like.

Alexandra added to You magazine: "I miss my family and hope to buy a place near them at some point in the future when the fuss dies down.

"I spend so much time flying to Los Angeles or Paris or Tokyo or Sweden that when I get back to London I curl up with my pink teddy called Family - because they gave him to me when I was auditioning for 'The X Factor' - and my Yorkshire terrier and watch my box set of 'Friends'."
