Masked Singer: Joss Stone wins show as she’s revealed as Sausage

We’re about to discover the stars beneath the last wigs, masks and costumes left standing

Masked Singer final winner unmasked

The Masked Singer series two finally came to an end tonight (13 February), with viewers choosing Sausage as their winner, and discovering it was none other than Joss Stone all along!

Runner-up in the finale was Badger, who was revealed to be US singer Ne-Yo.

Placing third was Robin. Somewhat inevitably, Robin was unmasked as JLS star Aston Merrygold.

Stone, who also revealed she had been “heavily pregnant” beneath her Sausage suit, closed the show with a rendition of Andra Day’s “Rise Up”. Right before the credits rolled, she giggled: “What a silly show!”

Guesses from the judges that didn’t come to fruition included Fergie, Jennifer Hudson and Demi Lovato for Sausage, Pharrell Williams for Badger, and Olly Murs for Robin.

Judge Rita Ora was particularly shocked at the unmasking of Ne-Yo, as the pair are friends.

Merrygold also revealed that none of his fellow JLS bandmates knew he was participating in the show.

Stone follows in the footsteps of series one winner Nicola Roberts, who also appeared in tonight’s episode as a special guest judge.

The second series of The Masked Singer has been a runaway hit for ITV. Celebrities unmasked in previous weeks included Gabrielle, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Mel B, Sue Perkins and Lenny Henry.

The Masked Singer will return for a third series in 2022, with filming beginning later this year.

The Masked Singer line-up collectively murdering a Diana Ross classic there, giving flashbacks to those iconic X Factor medleys from a decade ago. Shudders.

Series one winner Nicola Roberts is guest judging tonight, and providing your annual reminder that we truly failed “Beat of My Drum” all those years back

Robin’s up first, and casually name-dropping The X Factor as a clue. Ahem.

The funniest thing about this series of has been its horribly unsuccessful attempts to pretend Robin isn’t Aston Merrygold from JLS. We know it’s you!!

Jonathan Ross thinks Robin may be a woman, and specifically Alexandra Burke. Rita, Nicola and Davina are all convinced it’s Aston from JLS. (It is). Mo is sure it’s either Olly Murs or Will Young. (It’s not, it’s Aston Merrygold.)

“My name fits like a glove,” Robin says, ambiguously. What a curious clue. (It’s Aston from JLS.)

[13 February 2021 19:19 · Adam White]

“My name fits like a glove”. Marigold gloves, perhaps??

[13 February 2021 19:21 · Adam White]

Fans are pretty convinced Robin is Aston from JLS
