R'n'B star Akon claims Beyoncé Knowles once flirted with him.
The Grammy award-winning singer-songwriter says one perk of fame is having
beautiful women throwing themselves at him.
He told Britain's Nuts magazine said: "Oh, yeah, that happens all the time,
man! Alicia Keys, Beyoncé - I'm pretty lucky in that respect, but I guess it
comes with the circles you find yourself in when you get success."
Akon, who claims he has three wives, insists Beyoncé's boyfriend Jay-Z
shouldn't be jealous because their liaison happened so long ago.
He said: "Nah, he's got plenty of other things to be concentrating on! The
man has his own basketball team. I doubt he's going to be worrying about
stuff in the past like that! And he sells records too, you know. "
Akon, who was born in Missouri to Senegalese parents, says British women are
the most beautiful in the world.
He added: "Britain has some beautiful women - some of the most beautiful in
the world. Every time I'm here, I'm amazed by them."
