The Masked Singer was hit with a shock elimination tonight (January 11) after Macy Gray was unveiled as Toad in the Hole. However, the US superstar didn’t take the news lightly and stormed off before revealing her identity.
Toad in the Hole found themselves in the bottom two alongside Bear after receiving the least amount of votes from the studio audience to remain. As a result, both characters had to perform one more time to convince the panel — Davina McCall, Maya Jama, Jonathan Ross, Mo Gilligan — and guest Suranne Jones to stay.

Masked Singer: Macy Gray revealed as Toad in the Hole after storming off
Unfortunately for Toad in the Hole, their time on the show came to an end after just two appearances.
After Bear was announced to be saved, Toad in the Hole immediately walked off the set after being unhappy with the result.
Awkwardly keeping the show going, host Joel Dommett admitted, “This has never happened before”.
When finally returning to the stage, the panel had various guesses for Toad in the Hole. However, Maya and Suranne were confident it was Macy Gray from their husky, unique tone.
Correct with their guesses, the whole panel was stunned by the US singer being on the show. Maya even revealed that she grew up singing Macy’s songs.
Macy, on the other hand, seemed unimpressed by the whole situation and only gave blunt responses during her unmasked interview with Joel. She looked very emotional that she wouldn’t be returning and unbothered about anything else.
