had audiences on the edge of their seats this Saturday night as they tried to crack the case of the contestants’ true identities.
The show, known for its cryptic hints, saw Teeth leave viewers utterly astonished with a performance that hinted at a change in gender. The character, who had previously deepened their voice, delivered a rendition of Dua Lipa’s song Houdini that appeared distinctly more feminine.
Despite wild speculations from the panel, which includes stars like Rylan Clarke, Rob Beckett and Alan Carr, it seems they might have been thrown off the scent. Davina McCall was the first to speculate that Teeth might be female.
Twitter was abuzz with reactions from shocked fans. One exclaimed: “Ffs, I thought Teeth was Bradley Walsh, but it’s a woman #TheMaskedSinger”.
Another was equally baffled, tweeting: “Is Teeth actually a woman???!!!!#TheMaskedSinger” One fan declared: “Wait, Teeth is a woman #TheMaskedSinger.”

One surprised viewer posted: “Well, that’s just changed everything. Teeth are female????#TheMaskedSinger.” Meanwhile, another commented: “I thought Teeth was a man last time, and now it’s obviously a woman.”
In the past, Teeth has dropped hints over who they could be. One clue included them saying: “You can probably tell I’m a bit of a big mouth.”
Another hint suggested them going for gold, leading some to suspect the mystery singer could be an Olympian or athlete. Panelist Davina McCall shared the idea it could be Alex Scott inside the elaborate costume.
