Steve Brookstein, who won the first season of The X Factor 20 years ago, looks worlds away from his TV heydey as he sports a grey beard and glasses in performance with fellow star
Steve Brookstein, the inaugural winner of the UK's "The X Factor" in 2004, has undergone a significant transformation since his victory. Now 55, he has lost considerable weight, sporting a much slimmer figure and a grey beard, making him almost unrecognisable from his days on the show. Despite his initial success, including a number one album and a tour with Lionel Richie, Steve's career did not maintain the same momentum. He has since faced various challenges, including public feuds with Simon Cowell and Sharon Osbourne, and has openly discussed his struggles with depression and the music industry's harsh realities. Recently, Steve has been performing in smaller venues and has taken to social media to share his journey, reflecting on his past experiences and current life with a mix of humor and candidness.
