Singer Charlotte Church asked fans to appear in a latest pop new music video, recently - but, embarrassingly, only one person turned up for filming.

The Voice of an Angel singer, 28, put an open invitation on social networking websites for people to star in the promo film for her new single.

But only one person - a professional extra actor - arrived for the film shoot in Charlotte's home city of Cardiff on Tuesday.

Charlotte - who has 70,000 followers on Twitter - had to rope in passing shoppers and beg them to 'dance like no one is watching'.

In a Twitter message she said: 'Yo! People of Cardiff, I'm filming a music video this Saturday for my new single Little Movements.

'I want as many of you beauts in it as possible, I'll be in the city centre from about 2 till 10pm. Feel free to bring your best dance moves. Loves you.'

But only regular TV extra Julian Gillard, 42, answered her call, travelling 40 miles from his home in Neath to appear in the video.

Mr Gillard said he saw the video as an ideal opportunity for further exposure following appearances in Casualty and Da Vinci's Demons.

Determined Charlotte started asking passers-by to dance to her new song which was being played on a boom box.

Most shoppers were reluctant to dance with mother-of-two Charlotte, who was dressed in a long blue jacket over black leggings and black boots.

But market stall holder Stuart Talbot, 48, saved the day by showing his fancy footwork for the three-minute video. He said: 'I got to dance with Charlotte Church. There's not many men who can say that.'

After the shoot Charlotte said the day had been 'a great success'.

Charlotte, who was once worth £25m, today claimed she 'doesn't have a lot of money'.

The singer was down to £11m by 2010 said she has enough to live comfortably - but needs to find a new way to fund her extravagant lifestyle.

She said: 'I've got enough to be comfortable if I was reasonable for the rest of my life but I'm not reasonable, so I will have to find a way to sustain my lifestyle.'
