Charlie screamed the lyrics of the hit song - and got a red buzzer from Alesha.

However he distracted viewers by revealing he's still a teenager.

One said: "Can’t believe he’s only 16."

Another added: "No chance this chap is 16."

Someone else cheekily asked: "16, when?"

Alesha exclaimed: "He just murdered my song!"

Amanda Holden called the performance "awful", but Simon Cowell cheekily gave the act a standing ovation.

Winding up his co-star, Simon said Alesha was "jealous".

She asked Charlie: "Why did you pick that song?" who replied: "I thought because you're so amazing, Alesha!".

Alesha laughed: "Don't say nice things, I've just buzzed you!"

She added: "I've literally heard that song in every version you could possibly think of and that was my least favourite, it's a no from me!"
