X Factor Shayne Ward has admitted to a hot and heavy incident in a rather unusual location.

The 22-year-old singer has said that his "most embarrassing" place to have sex was on a tanning machine, but mused that at least he was doing some multi-tasking.

Shayne said: "The most embarrassing place I have ever had sex is definitely on a sunbed. My thoughts are if you are going to get down to it, you might as well get a tan while you are doing it," reports BANG Media International.

The X Factor winner also admitted to a drunken strip in which he bared all down to a thong.

"The worst thing I did when I was drunk was streaking across a cricket pitch. It was a really sunny day and loads of my friends dared me to do it. It wasn't the full monty though - I made sure I had a thong on!"

A thong Shayne?
