You won’t believe how different the Celebrity Big Brother 2017 stars look in these throwback photos
What are Jedward without their bleached sky-high quiffs? Or Bianca Gascoigne without her mermaid locks? Well, you're about to find out...
CAN you imagine Calum Best without his sharp dress sense and groomed style? Or Nicola McLean dressed in camouflaged army gear instead of bright bodycon dresses?
The extreme transformations the Celebrity Big Brother housemates have undergone over the years will have you wondering if that’s not an alter ego we’re watching in the house…
Bianca Gascoigne
Bianca Gascoigne used to sport a more natural look, before finding fame on Love Island in 2006.
Without her bleached mermaid hair the reality star looks remarkably different.
James Jordan
The 38-year-old CBB star shared a throwback snap with his now-wife Ola Jordan when he appeared on Loose Women last September.
Before finding fame, the wind-up merchant used to sport a Tarzan look – but we reckon he looks much better these days…
Nicola McLean
It may come as a surprise that 35-year-old WAG Nicola McLean was a corporal with the Camden Detachment of the Army Cadets in north London.
These throwback pictures emerged of the CBB star in full army get-up posing with her gun for the camera.
Jedward
Twins Jedward became the infamous joke act on The X Factor in 2009.
But the inseparable pair haven’t always sported such eye-catching hair styles…
Jasmine Waltz
The American reality show regular Jasmine Waltz looks amazingly different in modelling snaps taken just seven years ago.
The 2010 photoshoot shows her flaunting a more natural look.
Heidi Montag
Heidi Montag first found fame on the American reality TV series The Hills.
Despite being naturally very pretty, she has undergone several procedures to change her face and body.
Spencer Pratt
Spencer Pratt became the most hated star of The Hills after fans blamed him for breaking up Heidi and Lauren Conrad’s friendship.
It’s hard to imagine the innocent looking lad in his throwback snap could become such a master manipulator…
Coleen Nolan
Coleen Nolan first rose to fame as the youngest member of girl group The Nolans.
Four of the sisters reformed in 2009 for a UK tour but Coleen is now best known for her role on Loose Women.
Calum Best
Son to famous footballer George Best and axed fellow-CBB contestant Angie Best, flirty Calum has all the girls’ attention in the house.
His carefully-preened look and sharp dress sense is a far cry from his bad boy image in the early days.
Angie Best
Angie Best surprised her son by entering the new series of Celebrity Big Brother alongside him.
Their close relationship was clear for everyone to see and these cute throwback pics will melt your heart.
Jamie O’Hara
Footballer Jamie O’Hara is best known for his marriage to and acrimonious split from Danielle Lloyd.
Since stepping into the house, he hasn’t held back about his ex-wife – and she has spoken out several times to defend herself from his accusations.
Chloe Ferry
Chloe Ferry when she first appeared on reality show Geordie Shore
Reality TV star Chloe Ferry has been open about the work she’s had done and recently admitted to having spent £50,000 on her face.
It’s no wonder she looks like a different person these days…
Kim Woodburn
Kim Woodburn, 74, is best known for her role in Channel 4’s How Clean Is Your House? but the TV host was a looker in her youth and also tried her hand at modelling.
In the house, she’s proving to be unpopular with some fellow housemates for her outspoken rants.
Ray J
Ray J is an artist from a musical family, but is best known in the UK for his infamous sex tape with Kim Kardashian.
He was dismissed as dull in the house because he spent the majority of his time asleep, but it was later revealed he had to leave after ‘blacking out from extreme pain’.
James Cosmo
James Cosmo gained prominence later in his career and looks almost recognisable from his days in Battle of Britain, released in 1969.
He’s not the most dynamic housemate but his fellow contestants all agree he is the most respected.
Stacy Francis
Stacy Francis first found fame on The X Factor USA and became known in the UK after reportedly having a fight with Whitney Houston a few days before her death.
What most people don’t know if that she’d actually already had a role on American science fiction sitcom Phil of the Future.
Austin Armacost
Austin Armacost is an American reality TV star best known for starring in The A-List: New York.
His spell in this season’s Celebrity Big Brother house was his second, but this time around he was forced out early on in a shock eviction.
Brandon Block
British DJ Brandon Block entered the CBB house after a long spell out of the limelight.
He didn’t last long in the house, though, and quit one day after rapper Ray J left.
