Michael Bublé has admitted that he finds appearing on The X Factor a very scary experience.
“You are about to be judged by 14 million people. It is not the easiest gig in the world,” he told The Sun.
“The atmosphere down there is scary. It’s like the Coliseum in ancient Rome. Everyone’s cheering and booing. It makes what I do seem a piece of cake.”
Grammy Award winner Michael Bublé has been our X Factor guest mentor this week and tonight sang live on the results show special.
Michael performed from his new album ‘Crazy in Love’ – his first album for two and a half years – which has just entered the US charts at number one. He didn’t perform his newest single ‘Haven’t Met You Yet’. Instead he chose the Ella Fitzgerald classic track ‘Cry Me A River.’
Michael Bublé has admitted that due to missing Susan Boyle’s first Britain’s Got Talent audition, he didn’t initially understand her appeal.
“I didn’t understand Susan Boyle,” he told the Daily Express. “I was cynical and critical because I had never seen her in that first show where she comes up and says, ‘I want to be a singer’ and the audience looks at her and says, ‘Oh please!’ I got goosebumps.”
This week is Big Band week on X Factor and the act’s guest mentor has been singing star, Michael Buble.
After hearing each of them sing their songs, Michael gave his verdict on some of the acts. On Joe McElderry, he said: ‘He’s just a sweet little guy – sultry and sexy are the words I’d use.’
Michael Bublé has admitted that he is still in touch with former X Factor winner, Leon Jackson and says life has been hard for him since the show.
Leon managed to score a UK number one with his debut single, ‘When You Believe’. However low ticket sales led to the axe of many of his live shows and he was subsequently dropped by his record label, Sony.
If there is one theme I HATE on X Factor it has to be big band week. But The Radio Times is reporting that next week, the contestants will face “the challenge of singing with a full orchestra”.
I can just see it now, Jamie Afro singing ‘Would You Like To Swing On A Star’ and Miss Frank attempting ‘My Way. How very horrendous!
Michael Bublé and Westlife, who coincidentally happen to have new singles on the horizon, are rumoured to be the celebrity guests.
Michael Bublé commented: “It’s great to be back in the UK again and on THE biggest TV show there is……I remember last time having such a laugh hanging out with Rhydian and Leon and the rest of the crew, all hugely talented and great fun to be with. And it all finished with me having Leon up on stage singing “Home” with me at Wembley. Amazing. Perhaps we do the same thing again this time around?!”
