Spice Girls icon Mel B was the latest star to leave the ITV show, after “Murder on the Dancefloor” singer Sophie Ellis-Bextor (dressed as an alien) was eliminated the previous week.
Mel B, who was disguised as a seahorse, was surprised her identity had been discovered so early in the series.
“I thought I disguised myself pretty well with my voice and accent, and trying not to be like me – I guess I didn't do that,” she said, before judge Rita Ora suggested: "Sometimes when you're too iconic, you're too iconic!"
Clues given for the seahorse had included presenting roles, a Northern accent and the fact they had once stolen toilet paper from a famous person's house.
The Masked Singer continues next Saturday (9 January ) on ITV at 7pm.
