Lewis Capaldi has unveiled his Tinder profile by plastering images of it all over the UK.

The singer, 22, has posted screengrabs of his profile in tube stations, on bus stops and billboards in a bid to try and find love on the app.

He is also running a competition giveaway and one lucky person will win a trip to the States to see him perform.

In a video accompanying the campaign, Capaldi says: “The most important thing, when you’re taking a Tinder profile picture, let people know that you can read, people think if you can read, you can write, if you can write, you can make sweet love.

“I really hope I meet a lady after doing this.”

The dating app has also given him a verified blue tick so potential matches are aware he is the real deal.

Anyone who matches with Capaldi on the app will be entered into a competition to win a trip to New York to join him at his Brooklyn show on October 11.

In a statement, Capaldi said: “I’m very excited to have teamed up with the people at Tinder to give two lucky people the chance to fly out to New York to meet your favourite big lovely handsome celebrity (me).

“I’m yet to find love & Tinder Gold is the only lifeline I have left before I’m resigned to a lifetime living at home with my mother.”

As part of the partnership with Tinder, he will also be documenting his journey and sharing his tips and tricks for success on the app in the near future.

Fans who have already spotted the campaign posters have posted about their joy stumbling across them.

One wrote on Twitter: “On my way home and saw Lewis Capaldi’s tinder profile on an advertisement board hahahahahaha amazing.”

Another added: “Found [Lewis Capaldi] on Tinder...excuse me, what.”

In an interview with STV in February, he was asked if his number one single, Someone You Loved, had helped him find love on the dating app.

He said: "No, you would think so, but anyone who said playing music would make you more attractive is a liar."
