WOW. Look what a shave, four years and long hair can do for you. From hot to even hotter!

This picture was taken in London back in February 2004 when Prince Caspian star Ben Barnes was in the pop group Hyrise.

Check out the video of Barnes performing with Hyrise on the UK television show Eurovision in 2004. Cheesy boy band dance moves at its best!

“My pop career lasted for all of 4½ minutes,” Barnes has said. “[My costars] were dancing to it, no matter what they say.”

Ben Barnes joins costars Alicia Borrachero, Anna Popplewell and William Moseley at the premiere of their new film, The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian, at the Capitol Cinema on Monday in Madrid, Spain.

Ireland’s Independent recently interviewed Ben and he addressed what it’s like to be get so much attention from female fans. He said, “If someone says to me, ‘How does the whole heartthrob thing make you feel?’ ‘Vaguely embarrassed to be honest’, is the actual answer. I just feel a bit silly when that’s said to me. And of course, at the same time, ‘amazing’ because if girls think I’m a heart-throb then I stand a better chance with them. So both.”

Prince Caspian opens in Spain on Wed, July 2.
