- Name: Mark Owen
- Age: 40
- Occupation: Singer
- Best work: Shine
- Worst work: His solo career
- Worth: ££££

- Most likely to: Be touring with Take That at the age of 70
As a member of Britain's most-loved boy band, Take That, his incredibly squeaky vocals helped them on their way to eight BRIT Awards, eleven number one singles and five number one albums. You wouldn't be mistaken into thinking Mark Owen sucks in an entire helium balloon before he opens his mouth, but he still managed to take lead in their (admit it) brilliant single, 'Shine' - once he'd managed to steal the microphone off Gary Barlow.
When Take That tragically split up in 1996, Mark - like the rest of them - tried his hand at a solo career, releasing three singles that not even the most hardcore of Take That fans could remember the tune to. However, he made an inspiring comeback in 2002 - beating Les Dennis to win the second series of Celebrity Big Brother. Mark's now back for good (sorry), following the particularly successful comeback of Take That, and recently married his long-term partner, actress Emma Ferguson.
In fact you could say it was hard to say a bad word about Mark Owen. That is until he was busted for having ten affairs and had to go to rehab for a drinking problem in early 2010.
