Dancing With The Stars icon doesn't look like this anymore after incredible transformation

Dancing With The Stars fans were in for a surprise after one of the show's most popular faces recently debuted a startlingly new visage.

Former DWTS pro Cheryl Burke unveiled an 'unrecognizable' look on TikTok when she posted a video of herself going makeup free.

The clip featured the 41-year-old television star speaking about 'navigating life transitions with grace' as she gradually applied her makeup for the camera.

While several fans were astounded at how different Cheryl — who opened up about devastating childhood abuse earlier this year — looked compared to her usual public image, some fans were also concerned because they thought she looked considerably thinner than she had just months earlier.

DailyMail.com has contacted Cheryl's representative for comment. 

The clip opened with the dancer looking fresh faced in closeup as she showcased her clear skin and freckles, which several commenters were fans of.

'I LOVE YOUR FRECKLES,' gushed one fan, while others agreed and urged Cheryl not to 'cover' them with makeup. 

The DWTS pro had her dark hair swept back under a bumpy black headband, and she wore a small gold cross necklace and a low-cut white top that left her shoulders uncovered.

'Change is a constant in life,' Cheryl instructed her followers in the getting-ready video. 'And learning how to really embrace it can actually lead to incredible personal growth.'

She noted that 'life transitions,' which could including 'moving, 'career' changes or 'personal shifts,' could be daunting for many people.

'I did all three in a span of one year, not too long ago,' she admitted.

Cheryl, who divorced her husband Matthew Lawrence in 2022, said that major life changes for people to 'reassess' their 'goals and values.'

She confessed that her therapist had urged her to sit with any fears she had about the future and to remind herself that those negative feels would eventually pass.

It helped to usher that transition in by reminding herself of her capacity to 'adapt, to change and to evolve.'

'What I’ve experienced from all these life changes [is] to really just surrender,' she continued.

While sharing bits of wisdom, Cheryl gradually applied makeup that covered her freckles and gave her skin a matte tone, and she applied some blush to make her cheekbones pop.

She jumped ahead a bit at the end to reveal the final look after she had applied a splash of warm coral color to her lips.

She let down her lustrous locks so that they fell down over her shoulders.

But several fans were surprised at how much Cheryl's appearance seemed to have changed, even after she was made up in the way they were most used to seeing her.

'What happened to her face,' one commenter wrote.

'I had no clue who this was, what happened to her?' another person admitted, while another wrote, 'I didn’t recognize her at first.'

One user claimed: 'I absolutely did not recognize her until I read the comments.'
