Furtado: Feminism turned me against men

Nelly Furtado has turned her back on her feminist past because she fears it "brainwashed" her into hating men.

The Like A Bird singer admits she dabbled with women's rights when she first became a star, but now she's a single mum with a "secret boyfriend" she's a huge fan of guys.

She says: "I went through a feminist phase and read a lot of philosophical stuff.

"Some of the male-bashing brainwashed me for a bit so I stopped. I love men."
