OHMYGOSSIP — Michelle Williams lied to her whole family about being on ‘The Masked Singer’.
The former Destiny’s Child star performed anonymously as Rockhopper on the ITV Saturday night singing show and she has revealed that she didn’t tell anyone about her secret identity not even her closest loved ones.
The 42-year-old singer told the Daily Mirror newspaper: “I felt horrible lying to them.”
When she was asked how she coped being in the UK for the programme whilst her family and friends were back home in America, she answered: “Kinda hard.”
The Grammy winner admitted it was empowering to hide her true identity on the show – which is hosted by comedian Joel Dommett and features a judging panel comprised of Davina McCall, Jonathan Ross, Mo Gilligan and Rita Ora – because she is so famous due to her hits as part of the R&B group, which was also comprised of Beyonce and Kelly Rowland.
Michelle – who participated in Season 2 of the US version, disguised as Butterfly – said: “Being hidden boosted my confidence by 1000 per cent.”
After she was unmasked on Saturday (05.02.22), she explained the range of accents she had to adopt to hide her true identity.
Michelle told the panel: “I couldn’t come out talking like me. I was behind my mask cracking up.”
She was outed just after ‘Songs of Praise’ presenter Aled Jones was revealed to be Traffic Cone.
The ‘Walking in the Air’ singer revealed that his costume was inspired by game show mascot Dusty Bin from ITV show ‘3-2-1’, which ran from 1978 to 1988 and was hosted by Ted Rogers.
He told The Daily Star newspaper: “All I said was I wanted him to have a kind face like Dusty Bin from the old TV show ‘3-2-1’. The costume was everything I’d hoped it would be.”
