Charlotte Church: the Queen has no idea what is going on

Singer Charlotte Church has claimed the Queen 'has no idea what is going on'.

The Welsh diva has risked upsetting the royal family with her comments in the new edition of Esquire magazine.

She said: "I've met her about seven times and she never remembers me. When you get close to her you realise she's an old woman and has no idea what's going on.

"I feel really sorry for her. She probably doesn't want to be wheeled out at every Royal Variety Performance to watch scantily clad dancers and shitty comedians."

The mother of two also said she has never been chatted up and always does the chasing herself.

Church, 24, told the February edition of Esquire, which is on sale from Thursday, she has a 100% success rate with all the men she has approached.

"I've never been chatted up. I don't mind because I'm more of a chaser. I'm sure there'll come a time when a man will stump me, but I've never failed yet."

The saucy singer also hinted that she wears sexy shoes for a thrill in the bedroom.

Church - who first found fame in her early teens - said she loves to wear towering heels.

"A banging pair of shoes is the one thing that never fails to make me feel sexy. Give me a pair of ridiculously high Christian Louboutin killer heels.

"Have I ever worn a pair in bed? Hmm... maybe," she added.

The star - who split from Gavin Henson last year - also revealed that no men had ever bought her lingerie, so she buys her own online.
