Watch: Omar Apollo Says Handsome Men Can be 'Intimidating' and His 'Ugly Boyfriends' Were 'Amazing'

Queer pop sensation Omar Apollo spoke with a French publication and opened up about how his "ugly boyfriends" have had an inner beauty.

In a video "Love Interview" with Konbini (in Engllish, with French subtitles) Apollo admits right away, "I've had, like, ugly boyfriends," and, when asked what the experience was like, he declared, "Amazing!"

Physical features Apollo finds attractive include eyes and posture, he said, as well as "the shape of your head... I dunno."

"The physical is not as important," Apollo went on to say. "I think what's important is, like, the soul.... I feel like sometimes physicality can be really intimidating, so I try to remove it because I'm not as intimidated."

The interview was aptly titled, since love was the main topic – and Apollo bared his big, mushy heart. "I'm, like, obsessed with romance," the 27-year-old told his offscreen interviewer. "I have to chillax." Then, reflecting on that point, the "Spite" singer added: "Mmm... yeah, I've gotta chill."

Apollo revealed that he believes in love at first sight. "It happened to me one time," he said, though, he added, the way it felt to him was "not good. That's the worst kind of love," he said, since it turned out to be an illusion built on "intense infatuation" that lacks a substantial "groundwork of friendship..."

The interview also touched on the classic double bind: While romance is "healthy" when it's built on friendship, a romance between friends can end disastrously, taking the friendship with it.

"My friendships last longer than all my romances," Apollo said, summing up the difficulty.

Prompted by the interviewer, Apollo talked about his first kiss ("It was in church with this girl... I was 11") and the first guy he fell in love with ("He went to my high school. It was really intense"). The first case was a matter of "peer pressure," with his friends looking on, but the latter case was the real deal – and Apollo, still in the closet at the time, strove to keep things secret.

"No one was watching that time," he said of his high school heartthrob. "I was trying to hide it."

As far as celebrity crushes, Apollo named "Meagan Good, and then, maybe, Jason Bateman and Jimmy Fallon."

The pop idol walked into the interview able to sweet talk in three languages – he knew how to say "I love you" in Spanish, English, and German – but, thanks to his interviewer, he quickly learned the basics in French: "Je t'aime!"

Not that he's likely to throw such words around...

That simple phrase itself isn't enough. "You've got to add a little more," he said. "You've got to add, 'I love you endlessly'... You've got to mix it up."

What's more, Apollo opined that saying "I love you" is easier than texting the words, "because then, like, I'm waiting for 'I love you too.'"

Even so, when asked about the last time he'd told someone he loved them, the singer admitted, with a huge grin, "Probably last night, or today."

But he does like to flirt a bit. "I ask a lot of questions," Apollo said of his flirting technique. "I'm just interested, and I just really want to know... more."

Perhaps inevitably, the conversation turned to Apollo's friendship with ultimate zaddy Pedro Pascal, who makes an appearance on Apollo's new album in a song named after him.

"He's narrating this story that is about this complex grief in his life," Apollo explained, "and the song following it connects the stories really well."

There was one thing Apollo wouldn't talk about, though. Asked whether dating famous people is easier for those who are famous themselves, Apollo giggled, "No comment!"

But the singer did show his confidence in his own lovability. "No one's ever done with me," the out superstar smiled. "I'm too sweet and nice and charismatic."

He might just have a point.
