Swayed A-list bloke in charge like a charm (10)

I believe the answer is:

talismanic

'like a charm' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'swayed a-list bloke in charge' is the wordplay.
'swayed' indicates an anagram (I've seen 'swaying' mean this (letters swaying or moving around)).
'bloke' becomes 'man' (informal term for a man).
'in charge' becomes 'ic' (abbreviation for 'in charge').
'a'+'list'='alist'
'alist' is an anagram of 'talis'.
'talis'+'man'+'ic'='TALISMANIC'

(Another definition for talismanic that I've seen is " like a charm".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
