THE Masked Singer fans were left gobsmacked tonight as the identity of another character was revealed.
After a tense moment between Bear and Teeth, the panel opted to save Bear, chanting ‘take it off’ to Teeth – desperate to see who was behind the mask.

But as they slowly removed their impressive costume the audience was stunned into silence, shocked to see former Bake Off host Mel Giedroyc.
Mel – a comedy star and well-loved TV presenter – went completely under the radar this series and was not once guessed by the panel after she repeatedly changed her voice.
As she revealed her face – Maya Jama, Jonathan Ross, Davina McCall and Mo Gilligan gasped in shocked.
The judging panel believed it was radio star Fearne Cotton, Rosie Ramsey, BBC sports presenter Alex Scott, or comedian Su Pollard during the ITV reality show, after she performed the Neighbours theme tune.
Mel, who was dressed as a pair of novelty teeth, said: ” I’ll take Su Pollard! It’s so nice to see you guys. I love these teeth so much!
“I was very pleased with Alex Scott. Such a fun show, it’s impossible not to have fun on this show!”
She added that it was the “training and showbiz”, which allowed her to change her voice to make it more difficult for the judges.
But those watching at home were not impressed with the clues – particularly the fact she was pretending to be from Melbourne because her name is Mel.
One person moaned: “Those clues for Mel were ridiculous.”
A second added: “Not Melbourne being a clue because her name is Mel. Jesus… new low.”
While a third said: “I normally love the masked singer, but I really can’t get in to this year. And how is the clue Melbourne linked to ‘Mel’.”
During their first performance on The Masked Singer, Teeth lowered their voice while singing a rendition of Amarillo by Tony Christie.
This led judges and viewers to believe Teeth is a man – it was only Davina McCall who insisted that the famous face behind the mask was a woman.
However, after their second performance, singing Dua Lipa’s Houdini on, the contestant sang with their natural voice, which was higher and had a feminine quality.
And on tonight’s show, she once again sounded masculine as she sang Barry Crocker’s Neighbours theme song.
Who has left The Masked Singer 2025 so far?
Much to the delight of telly fans, The Masked Singer is back in 2025.
Twelve celebrities have been hidden behind intricate costumes, with their identities concealed.
Sadly, not all of this year’s whacky and wonderful characters can make it to the end of the show, as there can only be one winner.
Here’s who has been unmasked so far:
Teeth – this character baffled judges and viewers with their changing voice. They were finally unmasked as former Bake Off host Mel Giedroyc. None of the panel managed to guess it was her.
Tattoo – despite Davina McCall saying “you sound the same” after this character was unmasked, none of the judges guessed it was 80s singer Carol Decker, whose hit China In Your Hand was a No1 hit for five weeks
Toad In The Hole – a massive diva strop saw the character storm off the stage after the judges voted them off. They later returned to be unmasked as singer Macy Gray
Pegasus – the mythical horse was revealed to be Prue Leith, with judge Jonathan Ross correctly guessing her identity
Spag Bol – this character was first to be unmasked and was none other than Good Morning Britain host Kate Garraway.
Plus there was one extra unmasking this season, with Giant Joel – a caricature of host Joel Dommett – unveiled as double-double Olympic champion Sir Mo Farah.
