Ricky Gervais doesn't see himself as "sexy." The British comic star - who is in a long-term relationship with author Jane Fallon - has never thought of himself as an attractive man.
He said: "Looks are still the most important thing for women when it comes to meeting a partner. And that's fair enough, but a sense of humor is really important too. For starters, it's a great indicator of whether you are going to get on. If the first time you go on a date you don't find each other funny, there's a fundamental problem. Laughing at each other's jokes is one of the keys to a good relationship."
"I don't see myself as sexy but I am happy with that. I don't think a comedian should even be concerned with being cool or sexy - as soon as you do, you aren't a comedian any more."
Ricky also revealed he would hate to be single because he would have no idea how to approach a woman he liked.
He added to Britain's Cosmopolitan magazine: "Women certainly don't throw themselves at me because I'm funny - they know I'm in a relationship anyway. I've been with my girlfriend Jane for so long now, I wouldn't know where to start!"
"I can't even remember chatting anyone up!"
