FIRED UP

Apprentice star looks unrecognisable as we reveal most dramatic transformations since getting fired by Lord Sugar

STUNNING, sexy, and perfectly chiselled aren't the adjectives producers might have in mind when they are casting hopefuls for The Apprentice.

However, once the show wraps and the new reality stars have a taste of the high life, it tends to be how they end up.

Jemelin Artigas, who was on the show in 2019, wowed fans of the series this week with her amazing new look.

During series 15, she was regularly seen without make-up on and her hair was a dark brunette instead of the honey-blonde it is now.

The Venezuelan beauty, 37, is now a TV presenter and a model after leaving her career as a businesswoman behind her.

And she's not the only star of the BBC1 show to have transformed since vying for Lord Sugar's attention.

Series 14 winner Sian isn't afraid to show off her incredible figure when she's taking time out from her business.

The fashion designer, 30, wowed fans with photos from her break in Jamaica with her boyfriend.

The sizzling snaps are a far cry from the more modest, professional look she showed on The Apprentice in 2018.

Sian admitted to us that she woke up at 4am every day to make sure she was camera ready while filming for the series.

She also proved that she could rival most models when she posed in a revealing see-through dress.

Firey Amy took on Lord Sugar and slimmed down afterwards.

The mum-of-one, 48, after getting fed up with the weight she had gained in pregnancy.

She was diagnosed with Hypothyroidism, where your thyroid doesn't produce enough hormones, and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis - where the immune system makes antibodies that attack the thyroid - and claims doctors told her to just live with the weight gain.

Amy ignored their suggestion and insisted that she felt sexy and confident in the tight dresses she was given for the TV show.

She also joked that the idea of the TV adding 10lbs to her waistline spurred her on to drop down.

Series nine hopeful Alex was mocked for his overly plucked eyebrows and has thankfully learned to leave them alone.

The businessman, who is now worth millions, appeared on the show in 2013 and looks staggeringly different since growing his beard out and buffing up.

Despite being fired by Lord Sugar, Alex is now one of the richest young people in the UK and ranked near Marcus Rashford and Ed Sheeran on the Sunday Times Rich list.

He's not afraid to splash the cash, and his transformation sees him regularly show off expensive watches, including a Rolex, and wears designer clothes.

At the time of his firing from The Apprentice, he had no job to go back to and was devastated to leave the show.

Sam Curry appeared on The Apprentice back in 2015, when he was just 23 years old.

He made it through to week seven, but he's turned his back on business for acting.

Sam went on to star in the short films What Jamie Did and Devlin, and was in TV series A Series of Light in 2020.

And he's quite clearly been in the gym, as he's much more muscly than he ever was on The Apprentice.
