Can you guess this Aussie rocker? Famous band member looks very different as he touches down in Sydney after living in LA for years
An Aussie rocker looked unrecognizable at Sydney Airport on Thursday after arriving from Melbourne.
5 Seconds of Summer frontman Luke Hemmings stunned onlookers with his dramatic transformation after years of living in LA.
The 27-year-old singer rocked blonde curly locks after bleaching his brown locks.
Looking far removed from his usual glam rock aesthetic, he also wore baggy, baggy casual clothes.
He engulfed his body in a large striped shirt and baggy black pants paired with a brown leather jacket.
Some passing fans recognized Luke and took him aside for a chat.

These days, Luke lives in Los Angeles with wife Sierra Deaton following their engagement in 2021. He confirmed that they got married at the 81st Golden Globe Awards.
Luke is currently on the Australian leg of his Nostalgia for a Time That Never Existed tour, with the lead vocalist performing to screaming crows in Melbourne this week.
He took to the stage at the Palais Theater in St Kilda on Wednesday evening, marking ten years since he last performed in 2014.
‘The last time I played here was ten years ago. I was wearing a much better outfit. Skinny jeans I think,” he told the paper Defeatreferring to the time he performed with his band 5SOS.

Despite traveling without his bandmates this time, 5SOS were recently spotted together in Europe during their world tour last year.
The Australian rock band took the stage and scored their biggest hits at Campo Pequeno in Lisbon, Portugal in September.
Singer Luke and his bandmates Calum Hood, Ashton Irwin and Michael Clifford opted for sharp looks that matched their rock star status.

Luke wore a striking pinstripe suit as he jammed on his cherry-colored Gibson ES-335 guitar, while guitarist Michael wore an oversized T-shirt.
The foursome only completed their Take My Hand World Tour in December 2022 and released their third live album, The Feeling of Falling Upwards, in April 2023.
While still a member of the band, Luke debuted his first solo studio album When Facing the Things We Turn Away From in 2021 via Sony Music Australia.
After the song topped the ARIA Albums Chart, Luke has now released a solo EP called Boy, which debuted in April, a month before he embarked on his current tour.
