MATT Lucas and David Walliams are unrecognisable as they transform into beloved singers – but can you guess who?
The comedy duo have teamed up for a Comic Relief segment, bringing back Rock Profile – a spoof interview show that saw them lampoon stars including Michael Jackson and Gary Barlow.

Thirteen years after its last episode, David and Matt are reviving it just for the annual charity special.
Previous pictures saw Matt, 48, dressed in a revealing silver outfit and long blonde ponytail as Miley Cyrus, while David, 50, sports a mullet as her dad, Billy Ray Cyrus.
Now another picture reveals one of their other transformations, this time into two popular singers who regularly pair up as a duo.
Both Matt and David sported fake beards and moustaches, with David also wearing a curly brown wig while Matt’s was more coiffed and smooth.
Matt and David also wore white open neck shirts and black suit jackets to look like Michael Ball and Alfie Boe while holding a ‘Ball and Boe Christmas’.
After seeing the picture online, Michael, 59, joked on Twitter: “My lawyers have been alerted and an abusive letter follows!!! can’t wait to see what you’ve done for @comicrelief xxx.”
Speaking about the Rock Profile revival, Matt said: “It’s been really fun giving the “Rock Profile” treatment to a host of stars who weren’t even twinkles in our eyes when we first did the show nearly 25 years ago.’‘
David added: “I can’t wait for everyone to see our brand-new characters.”

The original series, which ran from 1999 to 2009, saw Jamie Theakston interviewing the ‘stars’.
However this time, Vernon Kay will be replacing him.
The 47-year-old said: “Thankfully I will be playing myself in Rock Profile, so I’ll be saving David or Matt the embarrassment of attempting my accent.”
