Justin Bieber has said that Cheryl Cole is too old for him.

The teen popstar has previously said that Cole is one of the hottest girls in the world and indicated that he would like to work with her.

Speaking to Heat magazine, Bieber admitted that he thought Cole was “cute”, but indicated a relationship was out of the question.

Asked if he would take her out on a date, Bieber said: “Well, first of all, it would be illegal cos she’s, like, too old… My mum’s 35, so she’s closer to my mum’s age than she is mine.”

Regarding queries about his love life, Bieber added: “I think that question is just asked way too much.

“I’m not going to be able to have a personal life if I keep being asked that question. So I’m not answering that question ever again.”
