The Masked Singer: Daisy May Cooper and Claire Richards are exposed in the double elimination

Daisy May Cooper let The Masked Singer fans down on Saturday night when she was revealed to be an otter during the show.

The actress and comedian was voted in the bottom three during the episode before being sent home by the judges and revealing her identity.

And it was a double elimination, as Claire Richards also recently presented as Knitting after losing in the public vote.

Out of breath, Daisy amazed the judges as she showed her face before declaring: “I’m exhausted. Why couldn’t I be a sloth or something? There’s so much jumping around.’

It was a good night for judges Davina McCall, Jonathan Ross, Rita Ora and Mo Gilligan as they managed to get both unmasked stars right.

Mo was able to guess earlier in the show that Daisy was behind Otter’s mask, while the rest of the panel suggested names like Kim Woodburn and Mel Giedroyc.

After she was exposed, the This Country star explained that she did it for her daughter Pip, but also joked that she “needed the money”.

When it came time for her final performance without the mask, she seemed ecstatic as Daisy couldn’t quite get through the song between laughter and breathlessness.

But after being voted out, Daisy called the experience “the best job I’ve ever done” and admitted she was “gutted” at being voted out.

“I did it to surprise my daughter Pip but when she found out I was going to be the otter she cried and said it was embarrassing,” the blonde explained.

Fans were thrilled to see Daisy on the show, with one taking to Twitter to share: “I can’t stop smiling, Daisy’s unmasked performance was everything.”

“Daisy May Cooper did a brilliant job as Otter. I’m wearing one of my favorite character costumes from this series #MaskedSingerUK,” wrote another.

A fourth fan tweeted: “#MaskedSingerUK Daisy May Cooper is the messy icon she is! Love her!’

While another reiterated: “Daisy May Cooper on #maskedsingeruk is iconic”.

Many fans had guessed Claire correctly after her performance of Anastacia’s Left Outside Alone earlier in the show.

When exposed, the Steps singer admitted she was a fan of the show herself, sharing, “I feel like a fan that won a contest.”

And when host Joel Domment asked what her two children, son Charlie and daughter Daisy, would say, Claire admitted: “I think they’ll be surprised. Charlie could be easily humiliated.

She later explained the reason for the show, telling ITV: “I’m a huge fan of the show and the idea of ​​being able to sing without anyone seeing me is my dream come true.”

It appears the panel was correct this time around, as Davina predicted Claire was in Knitting’s makeup earlier in the show, while guest star Stephen Mulhern agreed.

And Rita was close, sticking with the Steps theme, but suspected it might be Claire’s bandmate, Faye Tozer.

Knitting, Fawn and Otter remained in the bottom three – with Knitting receiving the fewest votes and being forced to reveal herself as Claire.

Then it came down to the judges, who decided to save Fawn and send Otter home – with Daisy then having to remove her own mask.

First up was Fawn, who put on a rendition of Paloma Faith’s “Changing,” prompting a wide array of conjectures on the podium – from Bella Thorne to Anne Robinson.

Jellyfish quickly got the judges on their toes by showing off their impressive vocal range with a rendition of Heart’s Alone.

Another contestant with stunning vocals was Rhino, who convinced Jonathan that James Arthur was behind the mask.

Next came Jacket Potato, who shocked fans by singing Fleetwood Mac’s Go Your Own Way and playing electric guitar.

“He’s a rocker!” exclaimed Davina.

Last but not least, Phoenix was to be afforded.
