The time has come for the big reveal on The Masked Singer UK 2025! With only one week left until the final, the tension is high as we await to find out who will not make it to the ultimate showdown. This past weekend, the show was shaken by a double elimination, leaving only three contestants left in the running. One of them was Bush, who had to take off their mask and reveal their true identity.
Sadly, the same fate befell Bear as well. After weeks of puzzling us with cryptic clues and enigmatic riddles, his mask was finally removed, exposing Example as the man behind the furry exterior. Some of the panel's guesses included Romesh Ranganathan and Louis Theroux, but Maya Jama was convinced that it was the Kickstarts hitmaker all along. And she was right, as the initials "EG" in one of the VTs pointed to Example's real name, Elliot Gleave.
Did you correctly guess who was under the Bear costume? If not, don't feel bad, as even some of the judges were taken by surprise. Example's unique voice was distorted in order to keep his identity hidden, but Maya was able to recognize him from his rendition of a Will Smith rap in a previous episode. She praised his breath control, movement, and flow, stating that it could only be someone who has actually rapped.
Following his unmasking, viewers took to social media to praise Example's performance in the competition. One fan even suggested that he should try opera with his impressive pipes. It's been a while since Example has been in the music scene, but Maya Jama still knew it was his voice. In a post-show Q&A, Example revealed that he loves theatre and theatrics, which is why he incorporated those elements in his VTs.
Although he was eliminated, Example is happy to have made it to the top five, especially considering that some of the best singers have been eliminated early in previous seasons. The 42-year-old artist rose to fame in the 2010s and has released five albums so far. He now joins a list of impressive stars who have already been eliminated this series, including Bake Off legends and even a Harry Hill impersonator.
The semi-final also saw the unmasking of Pufferfish, Wolf, and Dressed Crab, leaving only three finalists in the running for the title of Masked Singer champ. Judges Maya, Davina McCall, Jonathan Ross, and Mo Gilligan will return next week to discover who will emerge victorious. The Masked Singer 2025 final is set to air on ITV1 and ITVX next Saturday.
But before we find out who will take home the trophy, let's take a moment to appreciate the journey of all the talented artists who have graced the stage this season. From Kate Garraway to Dame Prue Leith, Macy Gray, and Carol Decker, each one has brought something unique to the show. And let's not forget the shocking moments, like Macy Gray storming off the stage and Sir Grayson Perry playing up to the speculation that he was actually the You've Been Framed host.
The Masked Singer UK 2025 has been full of surprises, and we can't wait to see who will win it all next week. Do you have any predictions? Share them with us in the comments below.
