REU is HE?
Britain’s Got Talent singer Reuben Gray looks completely different five years after wowing judges with song about ex
REUBEN Gray made quite the impression on Britain's Got Talent back in 2017 with an emotional apology song to his ex.
The singer-songwriter was just 16 when he auditioned for the long-running ITV show - and he looks very different today as a 21 year-old.

Fans of the series will remember the handsome young lad when he came onto the stage to sing a self-penned track, Lifeline, which he wrote to apologise to an ex he didn't treat well.
But it wasn't just the song that tugged at viewers' heartstrings.
Reuben spoke about how his dad was in the army and couldn't be there to support him as he was away working.
"I don't feel like it's right without him being here," said the emotional lad.

He got quite the surprise, however, when his dad secretly showed up and shouted to him from the audience.
"I didn't think he was here!" said the visibly moved teenager as he stood on stage in front of judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and David Walliams.
Reuben managed to get through his performance and made it through to the semi finals, with Simon telling him: "You've got talent, you really have."
Unfortunately Reuben was eliminated in his semi final, but since then has gone on to independently release six singles.

And Reuben looks rather different today from the young lad who stole the nation's heart.
All grown up and now in his twenties, the musician's social media shows him sporting several different looks.
In his most recent snaps he no longer has the floppy hair he wore in his audition, and it has been cut into a messy, chopy style that has been shaved at the sides.
He also wears a piercing in the top of his ear.
Reuben also had longer hair in other snaps from recent years, which was tucked behind his ears.
He is a dead ringer for Harry Styles in these shots, with his painted nails and trendy rings on several fingers.
One set of images also shows he has a very impressive six pack these days as he larks around shirtless on holiday.
And it appears Reuben is doing quite well for himself, despite not making the final of the talent show.

Last week he announced that his most recent track Beautiful Mess has racked up more than a million streams.
His instagram bio reads: "I make songs in my room, and occasionally sing others like rock songs ha."
