James Arthur looks unrecognisable in football match amid Masked Singer rumours
James Arthur looked worlds away from his usual self at a charity football game on Sunday.
The X-Factor winner, along with ex-TOWIE star Dan Osborne, joined the game at Altrincham Football Club to help support young cancer patient, Rio Spurr.
The 34-year-old looked unrecognisable after growing his normally-short brown hair out into gorgeous curls.
The singer rocked navy football kits as he ran around the field over the weekend.
His curly locks swept across his face as he played football. He also rocked a freshly-cut beard and moustache.

Altrincham Football Club put on the charity match at their J Davidson Stadium to help raise money for Rio's cancer treatment.
As reported by The Manc, parents Chloe and Thomas Spurr discovered he has cancer earlier this year.
James' appearance at the charity match comes after he denied being the Masked Singer's Rhino after fans made the suggestion online.
The rumours came after the sultry singer performed a rousing rendition of Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol.
Host Joel Dommett added fuel to the fire as he dropped a huge clue by saying this was the first Masked Singer voice he recognised, saying that he is a 'huge fan'.
Taking to Twitter, one fan guessed: “Think Rhino is the big signing this year," as several others agreed, with one suggesting: "Rhino has got to be James Arthur? Sounds just like him!"
James didn't want the rumour to go out of control and took to Twitter to write: " For all those theorisings, I am not the Rhino on #MaskedSingerUK it's probably Lewis Capaldi."
His denial didn't dissuade fans, with one posting: "That's something Rhino would say."
While another mused: "Take it as a compliment fella, that was one hell of a vocal."
