The X Factor star unrecognisable after eye bag surgery and filler removal
Do you recognise this X Factor alum?
The X Factor alum Christopher Maloney looks unrecognisable after surgery.
The 48-year-old singer had filler underneath his eyes removed in the UK before he jetted out to Poland to have eye bag surgery, and now he has been left with a swollen face, bloody stitches, and unrecognisable to fans.
Europe Surgery took to Instagram on Friday (15.05.26) and posted a video of Christopher talking about going under the knife.
He said: "The filler, I had lots of loose skin, so beware, do not get filler underneath your eyes because you'll end up here - mind you, that may be better because if you do, then you'll end up here.
"But pain-free, fantastic, only took an hour, and I look about 12."
Fans were shocked by Christopher's new appearance in the post's comments section, as one penned: "I remember him from the X factor, kind of!? (sic)"
A second typed: "Omg !! You look great already so leave face alone (sic)."
And a third begged: "Knock it on the head now please."
Europe Surgery rushed to Christopher's defence in the comments, saying: "Guys this is what people look like 1 hour after eye surgery. You have to wait a week for the results. (sic)"
A supporter of the Celebrity Big Brother 2016 housemates agreed: "Be kind. If you can't be kind, why say anything he's a lovely person. (sic)"
Christopher shot to fame on The X Factor in 2012 and finished in third place.
And four years on from his success on the ITV singing competition, Christopher entered the Celebrity Big Brother house.
He was joined by the likes of I'm A Celebrity...South Africa's Gemma Collins, 45, ex-EastEnders star Danniella Westbrook, 52, David Bowie's ex-wife, Angie Bowie, 76, and 44-year-old I Love New York alum, Tiffany Pollard.
Christopher was the fifth housemate to be evicted from the then-Channel 5 show's house.
