Stephen Mulhern transforms into Hugh Jackman in The Greatest Showman
It's uncanny!
Last updated 9th Apr 2019
Britain's Got More Talent host Stephen Mulhern has transformed into Hugh Jackman's The Greatest Showman character P.T. Barnum for heat magazine and the resemblance is seriously uncanny!
Chatting to heat about his career as a magician, Stephen said, "I actually recently did Holly Willoughby’s children’s birthday parties – and Emma Willis’."
He added, "I tell you what, I can do live TV and present in front of huge amounts of people, but doing a kids’ party when you haven’t done one for a while – I was so nervous. It’s mad, isn’t it? Kids don’t care if they shout out. And they’re savvy."
He also revealed he'd been dramatically suspended from the Magic Circle after he explained the workings of a trick as he presented Finger Tips with Fearne Cotton.
He said, "The committee of 'wizards' said that I had to go in for a meeting with the board and they said that I’d broken the rules by revealing the trick and they gave me a six-month suspension. The six months passed and they let me back in and everything’s lovely and great until CITV decide to repeat it! So I got another six-month suspension.
"They’ve now repeated it four times, so that’s two years I’ve been suspended. It’s like winning the lottery and then losing the ticket."
Discussing Ant McPartlin's return to presenting on Britain's Got Talent, Stephen explained: "He’s back with a vengeance. He’s doing incredibly well. And he looks fantastic."
