Salvarte a ti mil veces Puede ser mi salvacion
So I'm here with the very talented Charlie. First of all, congratulations on getting this
far. You must be over the moon.
Yeah, I'm really excited.
And your audition, I was watching it last night. I mean, I love One Direction so I love
the song choice. What was it like? Were you more nervous this time around going up on
that stage in front 5,000 people?
I was a little less nervous this time. I guess I had the crowd just to back me up, give me
some feedback, give me some energy. I felt like I did better than last time, even though
I didn't get to sing in Spanish, but it's all good.
We love to see you sing in Spanish. It's so sexy. And the girls, they love you. The reaction
as soon as you walked on the stage, they were like whoo! I mean, that must be quite a confidence
boost, no?
Yeah, it was kind of crazy. Before I actually did that performance, I was outside talking
to people, just mingling through the lines and kind of singing before. So maybe that
helped me out a bit when they saw me on stage.
Now what we love about you as well is that you know, you're a man in uniform. You've
kind of run away to do this amazing audition. What have your colleagues said back in America?
Are they really rooting for you?
Yeah, everybody's supporting me. I have a really good support system with my family,
co-workers. Everybody's backing me up. They're really excited for everything that's going on.
So I've been checking out your Twitter today. 8,000 followers. Something crazy like that.
Was it since your first audition that those followers started going crazy?
First audition. It was kind of crazy. I was watching it, and then right when it was over,
immediately it was like 5,000 followers in like an hour, and I was like holy crap. So
I guess I've got a lot of attention, and a lot of people liked it, so it was a good experience
for me. Before that, I maybe had 300 or something. So it's kind of overwhelming. I was like damn.
I'm feeling popular. And I've actually got some of the tweets here because...
-No way! -Yeah, I do.
So we've got @tylermoore13. I am totally in love with Charlie. Is Martinez or Martinez?
Martinez. Martinez. Whatever your accent says.
Yeah, it's totally sexy. The X Factor, and we've got like 13 love heart faces. She really
loves you. Lauren E says: "Catching up on the X Factor. Hello Charlie. #Hero #Hot #XFactor"
We've got Aisha. She just put Charlie Martinez from the X Factor. Loads of love hearts.
And we've got another one Zanira. First time I've actually watched X Factor. I see Charlie.
Another reason to watch the show. #Spanish
The girls are loving you.
My favourite tweet of yours was this picture I found. This is like the hottest picture
ever. Isn't that gorgeous?
I was feeling like lazy that morning.
No, it really is. I want to print it off and put it on my wall. I think it's gorgeous.
I mean, are we going to be treated to these topless photos throughout your time on the
X Factor? Don't be embarrassed. Be proud.
I don't know, I was just kind of feeling tired that morning, and I was just like screw it. Selfie
time. Everybody does it, so why not?
Yeah, and you're packing some muscles. We want to see it surely.
I guess I'll have some future pictures on the way.
So the question all of our fans have been wanting me to ask today is are you single?
I figured this one was coming. I am single.
Yes. Whoo!
I do not have a girlfriend.
If you said you had a girlfriend, there would be hearts breaking across the country. So
to get a date with Charlie, what are the top five things that Charlie looks for in his
dream girl?
Top five things I look for.
So number one.
You've got to be attractive. If you're not attractive, it's just not going to work out.
You're not going to keep my attention. Personality too. I love a girl I can be goofy with, just
be myself around.
Okay cool.
-Eyes. -Eyes yeah.
-Body. -Body yeah.
-Smile. -Smile. Aw!
-Yeah, you've got a great smile. -Thanks.
Somebody I could bring home to mom would be great too.
Yeah, so tell me. Is your mum quite like no, she wants to find you the perfect lady, I'm
sure. So what does it take to impress your mum?
I'm not sure my mom's hard to impress. She puts the ultimate approval on everything,
but maybe somebody that knows Spanish. That would help a lot.
Hola. Me llamo Andrea.
Oooooh.
Hablo espanol, pero vivo en Espano por dos anos con mi padre en Madera.
Ah, bueno pues.
I don't speak very much.
Un poquito.
Vivo blanco por favor. Y una cerveza.
Cerveza. Yeah, we all like that. What do you think of my Spanish?
It's pretty good. It's not that bad.
So basically I could impress your mum. Potentially.
Potentially you could.
I'm a bit too old. I'm 25.
You have to teach her a bit about English culture and all that too.
-Oh really? -Yeah.
And obviously that's a good question as well. You're here in London. What are you loving?
Have you tried fish and chips? Have you tried pies? A pint? What are you enjoying? What
are loving about...?
I like pints. I love the city of London. I like big cities. A lot of people, a lot of
movement. It's definitely something I can compare to New York, so I'm loving London.
Big Ben. Big Ben is cool. Tower of London is cool. Where else did I go? London Eye.
I've been out here a couple of times.
You've been having lots of fun.
I've actually been to a lot of places. Like I've been to France, Belgium, Netherlands,
Spain. I've been to Mallorca.
Oh Mallorca. Did you go to Magaluf?
I did.
Where did you go to? Is it BCM, the big night club? Yeah, yeah. It's a bit of a party over
there, isn't it?
It was overwhelming.
And of course as well, you can drink here, you know. Have you been having a few cheeky
tequilas on your nights off? Or have you been well-behaved?
I have my nights. We'll put it that way.
And another question. Have you perfected the British accent? Because we absolutely love
your American accent. The girls love it.
I don't have an accent.
Can you do a British? Hello, I love being in London.
Hello, I love being in London.
Do it again.
Hello, I love being in London.
Or like people come up to you, and are like are you alright mate?
That sounded a bit Australian.
You alright.
I think you're very good. It's okay.
I think you're the next Enrique. I honestly think that.
Nah.
The big thing is can you serenade? Can you serenade your future love? Can you imagine
singing to someone in Spanish? Can you do it now? Can you sing to me in Spanish?
I can.
Maybe Hero by Enrique.
A little bit, a little bit.
Can you do a little bit?
Si pudiera ser tu heroe Si pudiera ser tu dios
Que salvarte a ti mil veces Puede ser mi salvacion
Oh my God. That was beautiful. I feel like crying. Well, it was absolutely a pleasure
to meet you, and good luck. I'm very positive you're going to go very far.
Thank you so much.
Thank you so much. Lovely to meet you.
