Craig Colton auditioned for X Factor over a decade ago and became an immediate favourite of fans, but you may struggle to recognise him now.
Craig Colton won us over in 2011, now he has a very different look For some, the X Factor was our favourite show to pop on with dinner, introducing us to our favourite stars. For others, like Craig Colton, they became those stars and it completely transformed their lives. The 35-year-old musician first auditioned for the show when he was just 22 years old, singing the Adele song Hiding My Heart. Upon impressing the judges, he was quickly pushed through to the next round.
Unfortunately for the musician, it hasn’t always been an easy road, and at times, he had to work through the mental difficulties of his journey. Craig looks entirely different today ‘Once I started to lose weight my insecurities were more heightened,’ he told Loose Women in 2016. ‘I think being in a healthy good relationship helped. I was in a toxic relationship, being with someone new now it feels completely different now. ‘You can change the outside, but the inside will always be the same.
