AN X Factor star has been spotted look unrecognisable twenty years after the show final, as he performed in a village pub in a new video.

Steve Brookstein, 44, famously won the very first series of X Factor back in 2004, beating G4 to the top spot on the now defunct ITV show.

Continuing to pursue his music career, the star released Forgotten Man with Pledge Music in 2014[/caption]

Steve then performed at Esher Theatre in Surrey just six days after cancelling his gig in Dorset – which can hold 300 standing.

And his recent gig shows the star can still attract a crowd, as people settled down for the musical treat at the setting.
