Shayne, 30, will make his Coronation Street debut later this month, and he's admitted he's already been on at bosses to give his character Aiden Connor some sex scenes.
Speaking to Now! magazine, the former X Factor winner said: "I've actually asked the producers, 'When am I going to get jiggly with someone?'
"I'm a 30-year-old bloke – I can't wait for some sex scenes!"
Singer Shayne has been preparing for getting his kit off on-screen by hitting the gym – but he's still worried about looking a bit porky.
He continued: "I've been at the gym a lot and lost a bit of weight, but I'm not sure how much.
"When you're on camera you do look a lot bigger. So I want to make sure my body's in good enough condition in case I have to do a topless scene and they're expecting Peter Andre-style abs."
But Shayne doesn't just want a fling on the cobbles – he wants to make like his on-screen cousin Kym Marsh and go for a decade on the soap.
Speaking of Kym, who plays Michelle Connor, Shayne said: "What she has done is incredible. I think Kym's signed on again and this will be her tenth year. If I can have the same longevity that she has that would be great.
"Kym just said, 'Enjoy it, relax and if you need a helping hand…', plus I look like a Connor and we get on really well."
