Masked Singer fans brand Macy Gray a ‘diva’ after storming off as panel failed to save her as Toad in the Hole
MASKED Singer fans have branded Macy Gray a ‘diva’ after storming off when the panel failed to save her as Toad in the Hole.
The I Try singer was unveiled after the panel opted to save Bear at the end of week two’s Holiday show.
Jonathan Ross delivered the news, telling host Joel Dommett the panel had chosen to get rid of the singer they felt they had figured out.
But when Toad in the Hole realised they were going home, they immediately stormed off stage, leaving the panel’s mouths hanging wide open in shock.
The Sun has revealed how the show was left in chaos by the move and were left scrambling for nearly an hour to coax Macy back on stage – none of which was seen on screen.
When Toad did eventually return to the stage and take off their mask, Macy turned and looked absolutely furious and upset.
As Joel and the panel tried to speak to the star, Macy gave very short answers before performing just a couple of lines of her song.
After such a dramatic end to the show, Masked Singer viewers took to X – formerly Twitter – to discuss what happened, and how unimpressed they were with Macy’s response to being voted off.
One simply wrote: “Well, that was f***ing awkward.”
Another added: “Macy gray having a tantrum dressed as a toad on stage will go down in pop culture history.”
A third tweeted: “Imagine being that p***ed off whilst dressed as a toad. Why even go on it in the first place? It’s a bit of fun!”
Another echoed: “Macy seems p***ed off to be honest and struggling to talk to Joel with holding back emotional feelings and her face said it all.
“With her voice it was obvious it was going to be macy because of the tone she couldn’t disguise.”
A fellow viewer commented: “Embarrassing that you’re fuming over a family entertainment show… what a diva.”
They weren’t alone in their thought as another tweeted: “Wow! I really hope Macy Gray’s mask hasn’t just slipped.
“What a shame if a voice and performer who is an icon in my lifetime is truly the person I have just endured watching. That was so awkward. Please be an off day and not a true diva.”
Meanwhile another shared: “not macy gray walking off with the face on. that was b****y awkward.”
The Masked Singer airs on ITV1 and is available on ITVX.
