Eoghan Qugg now looks unrecognisble from when he first appeared on the X Factor back in 2008.
The Northern Irish singer sky-rocketed to stardom after he participated in season five of the ITV talent show.
Eoghan was just 16 years old at the time - and his impressive performances earned him a third place finish behind JLS and eventual winner Alexandra Burke.

Eoghan was mentored by Simon Cowell on the show and was due to be signed to the music mogul's Syco record label following his X Factor success.
However, he eventually signed with RCA after Simon pulled out and he released a self-titled album in 2009.
Eoghan pulled away from the limelight after the album and returned to TV in 2014 when he competed for the chance to represent Ireland at the Eurovision Song contest.
The musician is now 29 years old and regularly shares updates of his family life in Derry with partner Amy Campbell.
The happy couple welcomed a child last year and he posted an adorable snap of him with his daughter on Boxing Day in front of the Christmas tree.
Eoghan looks completely different from the teenager who won over the nation's hearts as he has ditched the spiky hair and his arms are heavily tattooed.
The former X Factor star was renowned for his distinctive hairstyle on the talent show, however he opened up on how he underwent a hair transplant in 2020.
Eoghan announced on Instagram that he had become an ambassador for a hair clinic in Istanbul as people reached out to him for support after he shared his progress.
He said: "I have to say it is the best decision I have ever made. For men, losing their hair can be such a stressful experience and one that we maybe don’t often open up or talk about enough.
He continued: "Since getting the hairline transplant and being open and honest about it, I’ve had so many men and women messaging me to say fair play, how they want to get it done, asking how do they go about it, cost, aftercare, does it really work etc and it’s been so refreshing actually finding out how many people where feeling how I used to feel and that I wasn’t the only one."
Eoghan has also continued his career in the music industry as he hosted a show on Q radio.
