It was the same season that saw contestants such as Cher Lloyd, One Direction and Rebecca Ferguson compete for the winner's title and, at the time, he sported shoulder-length locks and a striking black moustache.
Wagner, who was notoriously known as the oldest finalist, was eliminated in the quarter final but not before he showed off his striking look complete with beard and open-button shirts.
Back in 2022, we reported how Wagner had re-located overseas so he could "die in peace."
And three years on, after his return to the UK, he has changed up his striking appearance.
In a video interview for FUBAR Radio, he showcased his platinum blonde locks, still at their shoulder length, and in their natural waves.
While he's kept his moustache, it's now a natural silver shade and paired with a bushy beard.
Yet fans were left particularly distracted by his ripped physique, with Wagner giving a bicep curl to the camera for good measure.
His muscle definition could clearly be seen on his tattooed arms as he posed in a bright yellow vest.
Wagner was chatting to FUBAR host Andrew White and told how he had returned to the UK in December.
Yet he admitted he "couldn't stand" living in Brazil so sold his hair transplant clinic back to the Da Vinci business.

Back in 2022, we told how Wagner was leaving his Birmingham home and coming out of retirement to start up the business.
At the time, he said: "I love it here but I am going to Brazil to start a hair transplant business.
"I'm living proof that hair transplants work. I had mine eight years ago and I haven't lost anything. I lose more from the beard than my head.
"I'm going to be making so much money I'll be coming back to the UK. I'm only a flight away."
Speaking about his wife, who is 36 years his junior, he then added to The Mirror: "Once I die, (his wife) Lydia will communicate with the manager and I can die in peace now."
Wagner has also been selling custom videos to fans for just £10 - as he doesn't want to price anybody out.

Diesel clothing advert banned for objectifying Katie Price
An ad for clothing brand Diesel featuring the model Katie Price was irresponsible and likely to cause serious offence by objectifying and sexualising women, a watchdog has ruled. The ad, which appeared on the Guardian news website on March 26th, included an image of Price wearing a bikini and holding a handbag in front of her chest. Advertisement The UK Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) received 13 complaints that the ad objectified and sexualised women and featured a model who appeared to be unhealthily thin. The banned Diesel ad featuring Katie Price (ASA/PA) Diesel said the ad was part of a brand campaign called 'The Houseguests', which was designed to challenge stereotypes and support diversity and inclusion in the fashion industry by reflecting a wide range of body types. It believed the ad was compliant with the advertising rules but said it removed the ad from the Guardian website. The brand said Price was 46 years old and had a body type that was not usually included in high fashion campaigns, explaining that the average age for editorial models was between 16 and 23. Advertisement Diesel believed the image was a 'celebration of Ms Price's sexuality and empowerment and was not objectifying, degrading or sexualising', and 'showed Ms Price clearly in control in an active and dynamic pose where she proudly showed off her body and the handbag'. Diesel added that Price was 'well-known for her exaggerated appearance and larger-than-life personality and her large lips and breasts formed part of her curated public image', and this 'exaggerated, eccentric and altered appearance' formed part of the creativity of the campaign. Finally, Diesel said although Price was slender, she had excellent muscle tone and was not unhealthily underweight. The Guardian said it received a complaint directly about the ad on April 4th and blocked it from appearing again because it did not consider it complied with their policies. Advertisement Partly upholding the complaints, the ASA said the bikini only partially covered Price's breasts, and it considered the positioning of the handbag, in front of her stomach with the handle framing her chest, drew viewers' attention to, and emphasised, that part of her body. The ASA said: 'While we acknowledged that Ms Price was shown in a confident and self-assured pose and in control, we considered that because of the positioning of the handbag, which had the effect of emphasising and drawing attention to her breasts, the ad sexualised her in a way that objectified her. 'We therefore considered the ad was likely to cause serious offence, was irresponsible and breached the Code.' The ASA did not uphold complaints about Price appearing to be unhealthily thin, and concluded that the ad was not irresponsible on that basis. Advertisement The watchdog ruled that the ad must not appear again, adding: 'We told Diesel to ensure their future ads were socially responsible and did not cause serious or widespread offence.' Diesel said: 'Diesel's latest Houseguests campaign continues its tradition of challenging norms and embracing individuality. A key image features model Katie Price, 46, showcasing a body type rarely seen in high fashion, proving that women of all shapes and ages deserve representation. The photo celebrates confidence and empowerment without objectification. 'Shared in over 100 countries, it has not received any regulatory complaints, highlighting Diesel's commitment to respectful, inclusive storytelling.'

Love Island fans call for boy to be KICKED OFF show after ‘disgusting' red flag comment
LOVE Island fans have called for one of the lads to be axed after he made a "disgusting" comment about Shakira Khan. Ben Holbrough sparked immediate red flag fears among viewers after pulling bombshell Toni Laites for a private chat. 7 7 American Toni - short for Antonia - had stolen Ben from Shakira moments earlier after making her shock entrance. Sitting down with Toni, Ben praised her for the savage move as he said Shakira "needed to be humbled". "I like it because it's humbled Shakira. She needed that," he told Toni. Fans on the show were horrified by taxi driver Ben's shock remark about the 22-year-old model. Venting on X, formerly known as Twitter, one viewer raged: "Shakira needed to be humbled????? on day one?!! get Ben OUT OF THIS VILLA!" Another fumed: "Ben saying Shakira needed to be humbled and he's known her for three hours, he's a weirdo he needs to leave already." A third added: "It humbled Shakira. She needed that.' Put Ben in the bin pls." A fourth blasted: 'I like it it humbled shakira she needed that' sorry?? What? Get him off my screen what a bizarre thing to say." And someone else agreed: "What did Ben mean by Shakria needed humbled? Its not even been 24 hours. get this p**** out." As a result of Toni's arrival in the villa, Sophie Lee was savagely dumped from Love Island on Tuesday night. First person dumped from Love Island revealed Just 24 hours after she had arrived, 29-year-old Sophie was made to repack her bags and leave the villa. Ben, 30, had originally been coupled up with Shakira but was stolen from her by Toni when she walked in. Shakira was given one day to find a connection with another guy otherwise she would have been dumped from the island. Unfortunately for Sophie, the brunette managed to turn Harry Cooksley 's head and picked him to recouple with. Her decision left Sophie single and she was sent home. Shakira needed a pep talk from Love Island host Maya Jama before telling the group that she wanted to recouple with the footballer. As she was about to make her decision known, Shakira turned away from the fire pit and her voice cracked. She whispered to Maya: "So let me just get this straight, whoever I pick, that girl gets dumped?" Maya replied: "Yeah." Shakira whispered: "For f***'s sake. I still don't know which one I'm picking." Have YOU got a story or an amazing picture or video? Email exclusive@ and you could even get PAID Maya advised Shakira to go with the guy who she was most compatible with, adding: "You don't want to regret anything later." Sophie, a former fire breather and dancer who was left scarred for life following a terrifying accident, has since broken her silence on her early exit. 7 7 7 7
