A FORMER Radio 1 star looked unrecognisable after showing off a new beard. The 50-year-old took to Instagram to reveal his new look - and some fans compared him to Hollywood hunk George Clooney. And Chris Moyles had his questioned answered immediately when he asked followers if he should keep the beard. One wrote: "Not normally a beard loving girl but it’s a really good one and beautifully groomed.".

Someone else said: "There isn’t a bloke on Earth that doesn’t look better with a bit of face fur!". And a third added: "Thought I was following George Clooney on insta for a moment.". Chris has shown off a complete body overhaul in recent years, dropping from 18st to a much healthier 12. The former I'm a Celebrity star - who quit Radio 1 in 2012 - and later said of his decision to get fit: "I'm getting older. If I don't keep fit I will be dead by the time I am 50.".

Since 2015 Chris has hosted a show on Radio X and he took part in I'm a Celeb in 2022. His jungle campmates included Coronation Street's Sue Cleaver, Hollyoaks star Owen Warner and series champ Jill Scott. Chris reportedly landed an eye-watering £250,000 pay day for his time on the show. But he later joked that even the huge amount wasn't enough for what he went through. When Irish comedian Jason Bryne appeared on Chris' show, he told him: "We were all plugging for you in Ireland.".
