Union J may know their way around a ballad or two on the X Factor but when it comes to chatting up the ladies, we think they may be in need of some help.

The X Factor group was answering fan questions for Digital Spy when they were asked who they fancied- just not in a particularly conventional way.
One fan asked the following question: 'If you were a chair, who would you want to sit on you'.
Original yes, open to a wider interpretation than fancying? Definitely.

Hopefully not realising that this was a somewhat loaded question, Josh answered: "Jade from Little Mix. Bang."
We're not entirely sure Jade would appreciate the use of 'bang' at the end of that answer Josh.
George Shelley was somewhat coyer when it came to answering the question staing that he would be a communal chair 'so lots of people can sit on me'.
There's a word for someone like that.

However, band mate Jaymai then butted in saying: "Not Jesy? Jesy from Little Mix?" leaving George embarrassed by this revelation.
Unfortunately for George and Josh, both Jade and Jesy are currently dating members of Britain's Got Talent dance troupe 'Diversity'.
Union J may need to up their game if they want to be in with a chance of impressing reigning X Factor champions Little Mix.
The boys found themselves in the bottom two this weekend alongside Jade Ellis, narrowly avoiding an early exit from the show.
