Moth Unmasked: Iconic Star Wins The Masked Singer!

The Masked Singer crowned its 2026 winner on Saturday night, with Moth's identity finally revealed after they were crowned champion.

The performer beat out Conker and Toastie to take the top spot, with the latter's masks also removed after weeks of fan theories and guesses.

As Moth removed her mask, it was revealed that she was Sugababes hitmaker . 

Keisha shared that performing on the show had made her 'more confident' after years of performing alongside her bandmates, but confessed she had tried to 'change her voice' to mislead the judges throughout the series. 

Reacting to the reveal, fans wrote on X: 'Only in the UK you would see Keisha vs Ben Shephard in a sing-off.'

'Well got 2 out of 3, not bad. So happy Keisha won, outstanding voice.'

'Keisha Buchanan seems really shy and demure (I don't know much about the Sugababes), but she's got a stellar voice on her own.'

'I knew it was Keisha! Her voice is so beautiful! Love her.'

Discussing the moment she was finally unmasked, Keisha said: 'It felt like a relief in a way because every show Maya Jama kept guessing it was me and from quite early on so I was excited to see everyone's reaction who disagreed with her! 

'I was smiling the entire time! There were so many amazing singers on the show, especially Toastie, so I honestly didn't expect to get so far down the competition. It felt amazing.'

Her unmasking came after runner-up Conker's identity was finally revealed, with the entire panel stunned to see it was This Morning host .

The presenter had appeared as a guest judge earlier in the series, with Davina McCall gushing it was 'one of her favourite reveals ever'.

Ben added that he decided to take part in the show after vowing to do 'more scary things' following his 50th birthday. 

Looking back on his time on the show, Ben said he knew his This Morning co-host Cat Deeley's sons 'would love' seeing him being unmasked.

He said: 'Cat's boys love the show, I can't wait. The bizarre thing is, I have been interviewing all the unmasked celebrities on This Morning.

'They have no idea I'm on the show and still in it! It's an isolating experience going on this show as you can't tell anyone. I can't wait to be able to talk to everyone about it.'

The final also kicked off with Toastie's identity finally being revealed, after they finished in third place. 

Despite a stellar performance and a sensational duet, the character was revealed to be iconic soul singer and soap actress Mica Paris.

Despite admitting judges  and had known her 'for years,' Mica shared her surprise that they struggled to figure out her identity.

The star, who has also previously appeared on , said she took part in the show for her two grandchildren. 

Her third place finish meant Moth and Conker would go head-to-head for The Masked Singer crown. 

Fans were quick to share their surprise at seeing Mica unmasked, with some sharing they thought Toastie would be singer .

They said on X: '@MicaParisSoul was robbed of a place in the final two... what a voice!!' 

'YES! Well done @ThisIsDavina - you nailed Toastie a few weeks ago. The legendary Mica Paris - what a voice and what a costume!'

'Oh how she was ROBBED. Anyways moth is the winner.'

'Mica is so incredible - I'll say I was half right as I was still undecided between her and Brenda and didn't start to think it was Mica until a few weeks ago.'

Reflecting on her show stint, Mica said: 'I can't believe I got through it. It was so gruelling but beautiful. I did a song that I've never done, like Whitney [Houston], I've never sung a Whitney song! 

'Aerosmith, that was the scariest one. Whitney and Aerosmith were the hardest because I knew her, I never wanted to do her songs because I loved her so much. She was an amazing person. And Aerosmith, I just can't rap to save my life so it was such a challenge.'

Earlier in the final, the much-anticipated duets made their return, with Conker joining forces with Snail, The Corrs star Andrea Corr.

Meanwhile Moth belted out a hit with Lionfish, who was Will Young, while Toastie sang along with guest judge Samantha Barks, who was back in her costume as Pufferfish. 

Last week's semi-final saw Sloth and Can of Worms finally unmasked.

As he lifted his head off, it was revealed Ben Fogle was the star behind Sloth.

The audience and judges all erupted when they realised it was the Animal Park presenter singing the whole time.

Sadly Can of Worms was eliminated before he was revealed as JLS singer .

Speaking about his time on the show, Ben said: 'There's something incredibly liberating about no one knowing who you are and being able to just let go.
