Simon Cowell had fans worried a couple of weeks ago, but his appearance on tonight's Celebrity X Factor live shows put their minds at rest.
Simon has made no secret recently about his slimmed-down appearance, previously crediting it to a vegan diet and cutting back on sugar.
A couple of weeks ago fans were posting on social media saying they were "genuinely concerned" and that he looked like a "different person".
"Simon Cowell - what's going on? He looks ill and sounds terrible. Hope he's ok #XFactorCelebrity," one concerned viewer wrote.
Another said: "Genuinely concerned for Simon Cowell."
"Looks like Simon Cowell needs some burgers down him ASAP," a third added.
But as he returned to screens for the The X Factor live shows with fellow judges Louis Walsh and Nicole Scherzinger, viewers had a pleasant surprise.
"Back to normal this week," said one fan.
"Simon Cowell looks fabulous wearing spectacles," commented another on Twitter.
And another said: "Thank goodness #SimonCowell is looking so much better without the beards! Not looking so gaunt too!"
Earlier this year in an interview with Best magazine, the 60-year-old talent show judge and music boss said that people have questioned whether he had a gastric band fitted.
"I haven't," he said. "If I had, I would admit to it. This diet is all about what you put into your body. It's not the Atkins diet or anything else. It's just common sense."
