Blue star Antony Costa has recently undergone a major image transformation, impressing even TV icons who now refer to him as a "Greek god." The 43-year-old singer, best known for his time in the popular boyband Blue, made a stunning appearance on the red carpet at the fifth-anniversary gala of Mamma Mia! The Party this week. Dressed in pinstriped trousers, a crisp white tee, and a sleek off-white jacket, Antony beamed with pride as he showed off his impressive weight loss.
This transformation comes after Antony appeared on Loose Women alongside Abba legend Bjorn Ulvaeus to discuss his role as Nikos in Mamma Mia! The Party at London's O2. During the interview, Bjorn, who is 79 years old, praised Antony and even joked that he now looks like a "Greek god." The show's host, Charlene White, also playfully commented on Antony's new look, saying that she was glad Bjorn said it because she would have gotten in trouble.
The singer proudly showcased his trim physique at the fifth-anniversary gala, where he also discussed his role in the hit musical with the Loose Women panel. Bjorn joked about how women will now be throwing themselves at Antony, given his impressive weight loss. Antony then recalled a funny incident that happened during filming, where a woman got overexcited and made suggestive noises while he was trying to stay in character. Despite the craziness, Antony described the experience as "amazing."
When asked about how he landed the role, Antony shared that he was asked by the director to audition. To his surprise, he was offered the job just three days after sending a tape to Bjorn. Antony has been documenting his weight loss journey on Instagram since 2021, sharing before and after photos that show a two-stone weight loss. He even gave his journey a funny name, calling it "Operation Dad Bod."
The singer has been open about his healthy eating habits and even promoted a fitness plan that he followed to achieve his weight loss goals. He proudly exclaimed that despite the pandemic and national lockdown, he was determined to focus on his health and couldn't be prouder of himself for losing two stone in just 12 weeks.
Antony, who has two children with his partner Rosanna Jasmin, is set to go on tour with his Blue bandmates next year as they support Olly Murs. The 00s boyband will be playing in arenas across the country and Olly himself is excited to have them as his opening act. Blue is also thrilled about the opportunity and can't wait to have fun and make Olly an honorary member of the band.
Formed in 2000, Blue has been making hit music for over 20 years and their fans are eager to see them perform live again.
