Back in the day: David Essex
Cute, fop-haired and with gypsyish good looks, David Essex was the Zac Efron of his day - an all singing all dancing musical theatre star who girls fell in love with and who boys wanted to be mates with. His curly locks, funky hoop earring and twinkly blue eyes gave him a mysterious air and he stormed the charts with tunes like Hold Me Close and Gonna Make You A Star.
