Joss Stone is dating a builder.

The 21-year-old millionaire has been secretly romancing Danny Radford – a “down-to-earth party boy” who still lives with his parents – for several months.

A previously unseen photo of the singer licking the 19-year-old – who lives near Joss’ Devon home – at a Halloween party this year has confirmed the relationship.

A friend of the pop star’s said: “Joss and Danny are definitely an item now. He’s been staying with her at her home in Devon when she’s home from Los Angeles and they’re inseparable. He’d do anything for her and is totally devoted – she seems to be just as taken with him.”

Those close to Danny – who has known the “Super Duper Love” singer for years – believe the pair were always destined to be together and are a “perfect match.”

The friend added to Britain’s The Sun newspaper: “Locals always predicted they would end up together. He’s a bit of a party animal but a very nice person. They are well matched.”

“One of the reasons that they work so well is that Joss trusts him completely. She knew him before she was famous and he has been close to her family for years. Joss’s mother loves him and trusts him not to hurt her.”

Joss – who has previously dated legendary Motown record producer Lamont Dozier’s son Beau – whisked Danny off on a trip to Amsterdam this year where their love blossomed.

The pal revealed “She flies all over the world and mixes in glamorous circles but she is a young girl and just wants to have some fun with an ordinary guy.”

Joss Stone is recording a song for US democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama.

The “Fell in Love With A Boy” singer was reportedly asked to lend her voice to the song – which will be used as a theme to Obama’s election campaign later this year – because she will appeal to voters of all races.

A source told Britain’s The Sun newspaper: “Joss is a big supporter of Barack Obama and was very excited to be asked to do this for him. He sent her a personal message asking her to get on board.”

“He has always admired her music and thinks she is the perfect choice because of her unique appeal to black and white voters.”

“She believes he is going to be the first black American president and she is honored to be part of that.”

R’n'B star Alicia Keys and rapper Jay-Z have also pledged their support to Obama, with both dedicating songs to him.

However, the politician blasted a controversial song recorded by rapper Ludacris last week.

In the track “Politics as Usual,” Ludacris called Hillary Clinton – who competed with Obama to become the democratic candidate – a “b***h” and said republican candidate John McCain did not belong “in any chair unless he’s paralyzed.”

Joss Stone is reportedly dating Nelly.The British soul singer has been on several secret dates with the 33-year-old US rap star – who is 12 years her senior – and is said to be smitten with him.

A source revealed: “Joss and Nelly have been out on a few dates. It’s early days but Joss is really happy.”

“It’s great that she has met someone as successful as she is and who understands the pressures of being a performer.”

Joss, 21, is also reducing her hectic work schedule this year so she can have more time for herself, and spend more time with “Work It” rapper Nelly.

The source added to Britain’s Daily Mirror newspaper: “Her life has been like a whirlwind since she shot to fame at 14.”

“Joss is determined to devote more time to herself, and if a little romance enters her life along the way who can blame her.”

Joss hasn’t had a serious relationship since splitting from her long-term love Beau Dozier – the son of Motown songwriter-and-producer Lamont – in 2005.

Earlier this year, the “You Had Me” singer insisted she hated men, because they were incapable of treating her well.

She said: “I’ve had kind of bad luck with boys, they just don’t tend to be too kind to me. I don’t know why, maybe it’s something I do?”

Last year, Joss joked her luck with men was so bad she was considering becoming a lesbian.

The music star – who recently performed at a Hollywood awards ceremony for the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation – quipped: “Every girl my age wants to be in a relationship, but I haven’t had one for two years.”

“I think I’ll have to turn lesbian!”
