Contestant’s identity revealed during The Masked Singer semi-final
Sloth has been eliminated from The Masked Singer after their identity was revealed on the ITV show.
English broadcaster and adventurer Ben Fogle has been unmasked as the Sloth on The Masked Singer.
Fogle, 52, was eliminated from the ITV singing competition during Saturday night’s semi-final.
Ahead of the big reveal, Fogle performed an enthusiastic rendition of We All Stand Together by Sir Paul McCartney and the Frog Chorus.
Hosted by Joel Dommett, comedian Katherine Ryan joined Jonathan Ross, Maya Jama, Mo Gilligan and Davina McCall on the judging panel in an attempt to correctly guess the singers’ identities, however all were unsuccessful.
Gilligan suggested comedian Jack Whitehall and Ross said EastEnders actor Shane Richie.
Jama stuck with her previous guess of Made In Chelsea star Spencer Matthews and Ryan suggested You actor Penn Badgley and McCall, financial journalist Martin Lewis.
After Fogle’s identity was revealed, he said: “It was so fun. I am so happy to have got this far.
“I’m not a natural-born singer, but it’s been so joyous.
“I think one of the reasons I really wanted to do this is that we so often stereotype people, and we make assumptions about who they are, what they can do, stick in your lane, but I think you reach a point in life when you can’t take yourself too seriously.”
The semi-final continues on ITV.
