Joe starred on X Factor when he was just 18 years old back in 2009, beating Stacey Solomon and Olly Murs to the crown.

Joe now looks worlds away from the baby-faced teenager who won the competition with his rendition of Miley Cyrus’ The Climb.

To get in shape to perform in Joseph And His Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat in 2017, the singer trained with former Miss Universe finalist Caroline Dixon and followed a strict diet.

Previously speaking in an interview with Fabulous magazine, he said: ‘Most of the stuff we do is killer, but in a weird way I really enjoy it.’

He added: ‘I’m a really active person and I’ve done lots of charity bike rides.’
