Moth's Tearful Disney Rendition Stuns Masked Singer Judges
The Masked Singer UK's mystery celebrity Moth delivered a deeply moving performance that culminated in an emotional breakdown, leaving the judging panel visibly affected during the show's final stages. Performing the beloved Disney classic Colours of the Wind from the 1995 animated film Pocahontas, originally sung by Judy Kuhn, Moth showcased vocal prowess that quickly turned poignant.
Judges React with Immediate Comfort and Praise
Following the rendition, judges Davina McCall, Mo Gilligan, Maya Jama, and Jonathan Ross were clearly moved by the star's delivery. Davina McCall highlighted the emotional depth, stating, "That was really breathtaking. Stunning. Thank you!" It was then that quiet crying could be heard emanating from beneath Moth's elaborate costume.
Mo Gilligan immediately noticed the distress, asking, "I don’t know if Moth is crying under there?" to which the masked performer nodded in confirmation. Mo exclaimed, "Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Now I’m going to cry!" showcasing the raw, heartfelt moment shared on stage.
Davina added further commendation, saying, "That really was something else, thank you," as the audience erupted into a substantial round of applause, acknowledging the powerful performance.
Double Elimination Unveils Marvin Humes and Ben Fogle
This emotional scene unfolded just moments before a double elimination revealed two other contestants. JLS star Marvin Humes was unmasked as Can of Worms, having entertained viewers for several weeks with a diverse setlist.
Reflecting on his solo performance experience, Marvin noted, "Do you know what, what’s really strange for me is I haven’t sung by myself in a long time. I’m used to being with three other guys on stage and that’s quite a comfort. A bit of security. Although I’m completely masked, it’s still been quite strange being out on my own singing."
Simultaneously, TV presenter and documentary maker Ben Fogle was revealed as Sloth. Despite lacking formal singing experience, Ben embraced the opportunity, particularly enjoying performing Flash Bang Wallop from Half a Sixpence, a theatre classic with personal family connections.
Ben explained, "I remember watching it as a child, multiple times, and that song was just so joyous. So to get to sing that on a stage, in front of an audience with no one knowing who I was, was super super fun."
Anticipation Builds for the Grand Finale
The Masked Singer UK finale is scheduled to air this Saturday at 7pm on ITV1 and ITVX, where Moth's identity will finally be unveiled alongside the remaining contestants. The show continues to captivate audiences with its blend of mystery, celebrity performances, and unexpected emotional moments.
