Charlie Puth on the most memorable moment of his career so far

Hitmaker Charlie Puth has enjoyed great success in a short space of time, but his all-time most memorable moment involves Beyoncé and Jay Z.

He told Sirius XM: "This year has been amazing for me, but one of my moments was when Jay and Beyoncé came to one of my shows. That was really cool.”

He then opened up about his musical influences, adding that there's one artist in particular he really admires: “James Taylor has inspired my music the most, the song-writing side of things, and production-wise it’s probably, honestly been Eminem and Dr. Dre.”

Puth concluded the quick-fire interview by sharing his personal nicknames: "Some people who are close to me call me ‘Charles’ as a joke, but that’s actually my real name."

"Some people call me ‘Otto,’ which is my middle name. My college friends call me ‘Chunky.’ They also call me ‘Chunky Monkey’ and ‘Chunky Monkey Spunky.’ Sometimes they call me just ‘Spunky.’ I have a lot of nicknames. My mom calls me ‘Charlie Otto’ when she’s mad at me. Also on the regular.”
