Andrea Faustini is 20 and from Rome in Italy. The softly spoken Italian has a love a of pugs and is a huge Spice Girls and MEL B fan.

He wowed the judges with his initial performance of Who’s Loving You in the room auditions. Cheryl even said, “That is unbelievable. You’ve got such control over your voice. When you came in, I was not expecting that at all….don’t judge a book by its cover…”

He then reduced Mel B to tears with his version of Whitney’s Didn’t Know My Own Strength at Boot Camp.

What are you most looking forward to about doing the live shows?

“I just want to sing my heart out, show everyone who I really am, and give everything I have. I think this is the greatest chance I’ve ever had in my life. I still can’t believe it right now.”

And your rivals?

“I’m not thinking about rivals. I’m just thinking about the singers who are really good. I really like Paul, I love his style and I think he’s an amazing soul singer. I think he’s going to do really well. I wouldn’t call him a rival but I think he’s very good.”

And on the makeover?

I think it’s a very fun side of this job. Obviously you have to be focused on singing but that is a very fun side and I love choosing outfits..”

What will you do if you win?

“I would buy a car, maybe. I’m not very good at driving so just a small one, to start with.”
