It was 15 years ago that Rhydian Roberts and his peroxide blonde hair first appeared on The X Factor.
The Welsh singer first auditioned for the ITV show in 2007, during his final year at university and viewers instantly fell in love with him for his flamboyant style and dazzling hair.
During an appearance on Loose Women in 2018, Rhydian said: "I had it all through university but it wasn't quite as white," and even went on to joke that he was a "Phillip Schofield tribute act".
