"It's a secret, so I don't want everybody bothering him, you know what I'm saying? I don't want to sit on television and be like, 'Oh, the type of man I'm looking for ...' and then I'll talk to him and he'll be like, 'Yeah, I heard you were looking for this type of dude.' Don't get me in trouble!"
But she updated her fans through her twitter clearing up confusions over her relationship with the mystery man. She said that with the success she has, it has been hard to find a man who is not intimidated by her boss-ass moves.
