- Hi, I'm charlie Puth
and I am going to be reacting to headlines about myself.
(upbeat music)
"Shawn Mendes insists Charlie Puth is
the only one sending gym selfies."
I mean, I think we took one picture of us working out
while we were on the Jingle Ball Tour in 2015.
Somehow that effervesced into like this mountain of,
"Oh Charlie, all Charlie and Shawn do,
"aside them being musicians, they just take gym selfies."
I think people just make mountains out of mole hills.
"Noah Cyrus and Lil Xan have broken up
"over a fake Charlie Puth nude."
(Charlie laughs)
I'm still so confused over that.
I just remember seeing that, you know,
they have the little verified section on twitter
where you can see all the verified accounts
and I saw that picture of me and I'm like,
"That is definitely not my body, I'm not that ripped."
I saw the little eggplant emoji and I was like,
"Okay, it's a joke."
And I kind of just paid it no mind, woke up the next day
and was very confused as to the reason,
that was the reason why they had chosen to break up.
I'll never understand that, but, whatever.
- [Interviewer] Did you talk to Noah, or...
- No.
I don't even, I really don't even know them.
See, now this is very interesting.
"When Charlie Puth wants lunch,
"he tells his driver, 'I'm hungies!'"
I've never said that and I've had multiple people
come up to me and be like,
"Charlie, I'm a huge fan, hungies!"
I remember I was going to get food
and I said I was really hungry.
The lady must have misheard me.
I don't know why--
I don't even know if hungies is a word.
Why would I say that?
"Now Charlie Puth has candles."
What does that even mean?
I mean, I like candles.
I have candles.
"Charlie Puth explains his questionable new hair color
"and tragic fashion choices."
I've definitely made some
tragic fashion choices in the past.
In fact, I think I've been doing that
since, like, the third grade.
I remember coming in and my hair would be blond,
so apparently I haven't really changed,
but you know, I think I said in the past
that I, you know, I have to do all this stuff
or else I'm not gonna be able to cringe with delight,
so I wouldn't have it any other way.
(laughs) Questionable hair color.
It's so bitchy.
"Charlie Puth admits he likes older women
"while totally hitting on these hosts."
This is not accurate at all.
I was just simply being a gentleman.
I was just, what are you supposed to be rude
to people who interview you on a daytime television show?
I mean, that's, damn man.
"Liam Payne explains that he and Charlie Puth
"had a 'falsetto-off' when recording 'Bedroom Floor'"
Partially true.
I wouldn't call it a falsetto-off.
It was more of me just singing to him,
"Hey Liam, sing the song this way."
And he sang it back to me.
I guess you could consider that as a falsetto-off,
but mostly just a producer telling the artist
how to sing, which he did very well.
"Inside Charlie Puth's scary illness on tour:
"'I had to get shots in my butt to get on stage.'"
Yeah, I remember that like it was yesterday.
It was 2016 and I remember my tour manager
talking about us going to Canada right after the show
and I remember I just hadn't slept in, like, a week.
I remember seeing my parents in the audience
and they could just kind of tell that, like,
I was just, like, I had to stop.
I remember, it was kind of a sad moment
but I was in somewhere in upstate New York
and I was like, "Guys I'm sorry, I can't go this anymore."
But everyone in the audience was like super nice.
Everyone stood up and all the mothers in the audience,
like applauded me for making that decision,
even though everybody was bummed out.
I was really bummed out.
I just try and block this out of my memory.
I don't remember what shots I was taking,
but I remember I ended up in the hospital.
I seriously think if I had gone to Canada,
I would've been in way, way rougher shape.
It was a tough decision to make at the time,
but a very good decision.
"Fresh start? Charlie Puth debuts shaved head
"after deleting all of his instagram photos."
Honestly there's not really much to this.
It was summer and I woke up one day,
it was really hot in the valley, where I was
and I'm like, "I'm just gonna shave my head."
And I shaved my head and I announced to myself
that I wasn't hot anymore.
That's it.
- [Interviewer] Why did you delete the Instagram photos?
There's a little bit more substance to that.
I think I just wanted a fresh start
because I have made some interesting
fashion choices in the past,
so I guess fresh start is correct.
What I would like to say, is that I don't google myself.
I don't read articles about myself.
I did see the Lil Xan thing,
because that thing is very funny,
but God I (beep) hate the internet.
