Andy delighted by torso accolade

X Factor contestant Andy Williams is thrilled at being voted Heat magazine's 'Torso of The Week'.

The 23-year-old said the accolade was a lifelong ambition and he was "completely comfortable" with snaps of his toned physique being posted on the internet.

The news provided some welcome light relief in the run-up to this week's live show, in which he will sing Snow Patrol's 'Chasing Cars'.

Andy said he is determined to deliver a strong performance this time around as he was convinced he would be in the bottom two in last Saturday's show.

But although he is sure that this week's track is perfect for his voice, he was concerned that eliminated contestant Daniel De Bourg would object to the use of "his song".

The Welsh hopeful became emotional while listening to the single, saying he is feeling the added pressure of doing a good job for his friend.

The X Factor continues on Saturday at 6.45pm on ITV1.
