Why men don't chat up Michelle Keegan

Michelle Keegan is certainly a beautiful and talented young woman. Therefore, it's odd that she says she never gets chatted up by men when she's out and about. According to this long interview in the Mirror, she had men trying to pull her before she joined Coronation Street but wonders if her character Tina's gobby persona puts them off now. She isn't totally surprised that she doesn't get chatted up as, contrary to popular opinion, she doesn't think she's sexy. She only dresses up for special occasions but when she does, she certainly looks great!

On screen it's a different matter. She's dated David and now Jason and this week she'll be seen snogging a good looking bloke in a bar who turns out to be her ex's brother, Nick Tilsley! More fuel for David's burning resentment!

Michelle isn't really concerned about getting chatted up, however, as she's in a relationship with a lovely fella. They aren't living together and were friends before they got together, which is a good place to start. She says "I like to think that I’m independent but really, deep down, I like to get looked after. I need someone there and Brad does that."
