Guess who! Popular children’s entertainer shares teenage throwback

He’s a beloved children’s entertainer, who’s been in the business for nearly three decades.

And despite being a member of an internationally acclaimed group, the performer looked unrecognisable in a throwback snap shared to Instagram on Monday.

The 55-year-old was pictured as a fresh-faced teenager with bushy eyebrows and messy locks in a photo from 1981.  

Guess who! Popular children’s entertainer shares a teenage throwback with ‘pimples’ and bushy eyebrows – so can YOU recognise him?

‘Pimples, eyebrow and thin tie! Flashback to 1981!!!,’ the caption read.

The star in question is Blue Wiggle Anthony Field, who delighted his followers this week by sharing a photo taken more than 30 years ago.

The father-of-three looks smartly dressed in a white shirt and black tie as he poses for a photo.

Despite looking upbeat in the snap, Anthony previously revealed that his teenage years were some of the hardest in his life.

Speaking on ABC’s Ahn’s Brush With Fame last year, Anthony said he first began struggling with depression while attending St Joseph’s College boarding school in Sydney.

‘I mean, boarding school – things happen there which I won’t go into, but they were too much for a young teenager to cope with by yourself,’ he told Ahn.

‘You’re away from your parents and as years rolled on I just started feeling bad about myself.

He added:  ‘You feel like you shouldn’t be on the earth, basically. You’re a waste of time … You’re in a crowd with people and you feel like you’re the only person who feels like that. (You think) they don’t understand me – no one gets to me.’

With professional help and the support of his loved ones, Anthony was able to find peace and is now in a much better place.

He has been happily married to former dancer Michaela Patisteas for 15 years and they share three children Lucia, 14, Marie, 12, and Antonio, 11.
