Celebrity Big Brother star Donny Tourette unrecognisable after ditching punk look

Former Celebrity Big Brother star Donny Tourette looks completely unrecognisable 16 years on from when he appeared on the popular Channel 4 show.

The 42-year-old will be remembered most for jumping over the wall after learning that late Big Brother star Jade Goody would be joining the series with her mum Jackiey. Donny decided to leave the show after 48 hours on the 2007 show.

At the time, Donny, 42 – who fronted the punk rock band Towers of London – said: “I’m not f**king waiting hand and foot on some f**king moron and her family.” What followed next were surprising scenes when the singer, from Liverpool, was given a helping hand over the wall by Ian “H” Watkins from Steps.

However almost two decades later after his Celeb Big Brother stint, Donny shared a video of himself casually roller skating in California last year. Compared to his previous striking blonde hair, Donny appeared to have chilled out a lot, and had ditched his rocker uniform of dark sunglasses, slogan T-shirts, black leather jackets and skinny jeans.

In a video shared on his Instagram, Donny wore yellow shorts and a blue Nike top as he skated and embraced the nice weather. Smiling into the camera, the star played Good Vibrations by The Beach Boys over the top of his clip.

Donny still makes music with his band Towers of London. In 2022, the rock band released a song called Let It Be and an EP called Jump.

The band said on Twitter: “We recently had our music played on a TNT series called Animal Kingdom the song is called Jump and it’s on our new EP! Thanks to everyone who made it happen @thunderdog1972 @pdhmix @stevieplaysguitar_ @thomdurrant @theoldciderpress.”

In 2019, a documentary was created for the band called Towers of London: The Movie. It was then renamed F**K IT UP!. It was set for its premiere in April 2022 at the Hot Docs Film Festival in Toronto however the screening was later scrapped.
