For years he enjoyed life as one of the world's most lusted after singers, but Ricky Martin's polished pop star looks appear to be slipping away.

The Cup Of Life performer was almost unrecognisable as he walked the red carpet at the Latin music's Premio Lo Nuestro awards in Miami yesterday.

His once chiseled jaw line was buried underneath a thick, unkempt beard and his carefully coiffeured hair reduced to a buzz cut.

Fading star: Ricky Martin in Miami yesterday; the pop star in his prime

The 37-year-old, who won best pop album of the year for Ricky Martin: MTV Unplugged at the ceremony, attended the event alone amid ongoing speculation about his sexuality.

While he has long remained quiet on the subject, his friend Ole Henriksen, a Hollywood skincare guru recently gave an interview to Swedish magazine Salonk in which he appeared to out the star.

Henriksen said in December: "He is a bit more open about it these days than he used to be. It's difficult for artists – women as well as men – who need to sell lots of records to be open about their sexuality."

He looks great.

- Chris, Basildon, UK

If I thought I looked like that at 37 I'd be more than happy. Beneath the beard he's still a handsome man.

- Paul Wilson, London, UK

May just be me but he looks one hundred times better now.

- Charlie, London
