THE Masked Singer was thrown into chaos when a celebrity stormed off after being voted out.
The hidden star was apparently so gutted at being axed from the ITV show they initially spurned the chance to reveal their identity and sing for one last time.

The dramatic scenes will air tomorrow, when Pufferfish, Bear, Toad in the Hole, Wolf and Bush perform.
The Sun is choosing not to wreck the guessing game for viewers by exposing the diva, who is a world-renowned star.
But online sleuths have come up with potential names for the five characters, including Jamie Lynn Spears, Michael Sheen, Macy Gray, Marti Pellow and Patrick Stewart.
An audience member told The Sun: “It was absolutely bonkers.
“Usually the celeb with the lowest votes takes off their mask and then chats to the panel and sings again.
“But instead this character turned around and shuffled off stage, which was hilarious in their costume obviously — but we were all stunned.
“We knew something was going on because we saw lots of to-ing and fro-ing with crew before the person eventually came back on stage.
“We were even more intrigued to find out who was behind the mask.”
A celebrity has never reacted badly to their unmasking in the hit show’s five-year history, with huge names including US rapper Ne-Yo and Destiny’s Child star Michelle Williams relishing their time on the programme.
A show source said bosses worked hard behind the scenes to encourage the star to finish the show while host Joel Dommett, 39, entertained the audience.
The source said: “The celebrity was basically gutted and upset to be leaving the competition so soon.”
ITV has declined to comment.
