Demisexuality is where a person only begins to find someone sexually attractive after forming a strong emotional bond with them first.

The chat began as Dean admitted he "enjoys" being single to which fellow single campmate Alan replied: “I’ve never done dating apps, I don’t even know what I’d do.”

Turning to Tulisa, Dean quipped: "We’ve done them all, haven’t we babes.”

The N-Dubz star was quick to reply, saying she had only ever tried Raya, the private dating app for celebrities.

"I’m not really a dater," she revealed. "Even though I’ve been on there, I’ve never gone on an actual date with anyone on there. I’m proper guarded.”

She then said she felt like she was demisexual, saying: "I need to have a really close emotional bond with someone.” The star also said she needed “actual depth” when it comes getting intimate with someone.

Tulisa then added: “I’m a slow, slow burner, I’ve been celibate for over three years.”

Radio DJ Dean went on to quiz Tulisa further on her celibacy, to which she admitted “I’m not an overly sexualised person,”

"For me, it’s all about the connection and the emotions that I feel with someone and then wanting to express them in that way.”

She stated that her body was her temple, claiming that the thought of sleeping with someone in a non-romantic situation “genuinely made her feel physically sick.”
