Didn't help him at all. They made him seem like a 40 yr old virgin overweight Italian who did opera & lived with a bunch of pugs & laughed at things he didn't understand. Like a dopey type super mario.
They should have made him seem his actual age, and a bit more like the auditions where he seemed to do black music(if I can say that) rather well and had an incredible voice for it.
When the live shows came he went with mad productions that didn't work & I no longer appreciate his voice. His whole charisma seemed lost among all that pug super italian stuff. They should have just not even mentioned much that he was Italian or he liked pugs..and styled him a bit better.
He should have song motown & stuff like that without huge productions. I was bored of him by week 3. He was actually quite funny & really nice..and could sing right he had the potential to win but they ruined him by week 2/3

For the record he was styled how he would dress in the real world judging by photos outside the competition.
It is a shame that they felt the need to dress him like that, and also a shame that they chose boring songs for him week after week - but it's clear from the voting figures that he was winning every week for the first few weeks and they felt the need to stop that trend.
Diva? He's a normal, shy guy, he's as far away from a diva as you can get.
LOL I had to google that! Up here we'd call them half masts.
In fairness to Andrea, he was royally stitched up. Probably too polite to complain about the image they carved out for him. The producers merely pounced on his initial dress sense and worked it to his disadvantage, whilst improving the initial image of Fleur and Ben, both of whom seem about 5 years younger at their initial audition. X Factor must really age you!
I do agree Andrea was totally screwed.
It was a bit odd though tbf, if that was say someone who looked like Mary Byrne or Sam Bailey saying it about cats, they'd be laughed out of the audition
Show makes it seem like he's obsessed with pugs
I have a Christopher Walken t shirt. I don't even particularly like him
