Images surfaced online that sparked a wave of disbelief among fans – could it really be Alan Carr?
The comedian, fresh off the exhilarating finale of *Celebrity Traitors*, was photographed in London looking remarkably different. Gone were the signature square glasses, replaced by a simple cap and a relaxed, casual outfit.
Author Nooruddean Choudry first shared the puzzling picture, joking that Carr could easily moonlight as a spy, completely transforming his appearance with a subtle shift in demeanor.
Carr himself quickly responded, offering a perfectly blunt explanation for his altered look: a monumental hangover. A simple, slightly queasy-faced emoji accompanied his comment, instantly endearing him to fans.
The photos ignited a flurry of reactions online, with many commenting on the sheer power of his glasses as a disguise. Comparisons to Clark Kent and Superman abounded, highlighting the dramatic change in his appearance.
“Glasses are his cape,” quipped the official Specsavers account, perfectly capturing the sentiment. Others simply expressed their shock, stating they would never have recognized him in a million years.
The unrecognisable photos emerged just after the dramatic conclusion of *Celebrity Traitors*, where Carr had been a popular figure. He was even playfully heckled with “Traitor!” shouts during a celebratory night out in Soho with Kate Garraway.
This isn’t the first time Carr has been in the headlines recently. Just days before, a story emerged detailing his quick thinking and bravery while on holiday in Morocco.
While vacationing with friend Cleo Rocos, Carr reportedly intervened during an attack, physically disarming a man who attempted to assault her with a knife, demonstrating a courage far removed from his comedic persona.
The incident, recounted by Rocos, revealed Carr’s decisive action, slapping the knife from the attacker’s hand before any serious harm could be done, showcasing a side of him rarely seen on television.
