‘George Michael vibes!’ Paddy McGuinness looks unrecognisable in a wig and Miami Vice inspired outfit while filming Take Me Out 80s special

Paddy McGuinness looked unrecognisable in a snap of himself, which he shared to Instagram, on Wednesday.

On Wednesday, the TV presenter, 49, was dressed in a wig and Miami Vice inspired outfit in the shot taken while filming an upcoming Take Me Out 80s special. 

Paddy – who usually sports a buzzcut – rocked his colourful ensemble, which comprised a pink tee with black shades hanging from the neckline, and a mint green linen blazer.

The TV star posed with his hands in the pockets of his beige chinos, while a pink woven belt finished the vintage look. 

Fans were quick to comment on his photograph, comparing his likeness to the late George Michael, Miami Vice star Don Johnson and even footballer David Beckham.

Paddy captioned his upload: ‘Backstage at the Take Me Out 80’s special. The board behind me is where we’d put the pics and bios up of the lads who were about to be thrown into the dating arena! #takemeout #nolikeynolighty #backstage #bts.’

And one follower commented: ‘Wow yr giving me George Michael vibes,’ with another writing: ‘Love your tribute to George Michael Paddy x.’ 

‘Club Tropicana called, they want to know if you want a free drink?’ joked someone else, as another admitted: ‘My god @mcguinness.paddy I couldn’t figure out then if that was David beckham or George Michael. looking good though mate.’ 

One follower commented: ‘Bl**dy hell I was scrolling quick and I swear that was Beckham a la 90’s! ‘ while someone else wrote: ‘Oh my word, I’m thinking David Beckham lookalike.’ 

Others were convinced Paddy resembled actor Don Johnson, with one stating: ‘Miami vice vibe,’ and another noting: ‘You do actually look a bit like Don Johnson.’ 

‘Looks like you should be on Miami Vice,’ added someone else as another fan gushed: ‘Don Johnson eat your heart out.’ 

It comes after The Sun claimed that half of the shows fronted by Paddy will not be returning to screens, with  both Catchpoint and I Can See Your Voice, which are fronted by the presenter, axed. 

A TV insider told the publication: ‘This will come as a real blow to Paddy, who’s made a firm commitment to the Beeb since he quit ITV four years ago.

‘Both I Can See Your Voice and Catchpoint saw him retain his place as a star of Saturday night TV, something he forged fronting dating favourite Take Me Out on ITV.

‘But these axings mean that’s effectively gone, so he’s likely to be looking for new projects to fill the void.

‘He remains hugely popular with viewers, who see him as a relatable and funny bloke they want to welcome into their living rooms. He is likely to bounce back in some way.’

MailOnline has contacted the BBC and representatives for Paddy for comment.
