The One Show’s Lauren Laverne lets slip HUGE Masked Singer spoiler live on TV

A US singing legend has already been unveiled on the show

THE One Show's Lauren Laverne appeared to let slip a huge Masked Singer spoiler during a chat with show judge Davina McCall last night.

The broadcaster and co-host Roman Kemp discussed the upcoming batch of characters appearing in tomorrow's show: Air Fryer, Owl, Piranha, Bubble Tea, Chicken Caesar and Eiffel Tower.

And looking further ahead into the series, Lauren teased: "A former Doctor Who will be making an appearance on The Masked Singer this season."

The words were taken as a potential giveaway by some viewers, with one writing on X: "And did you just give away that one of the Masked Singers is a former Doctor Who? Spoilers!"

Another said: "A former Doctor Who will be on #MaskedSinger?"

A third replied: "I noticed that, big spoiler, and nobody seems to have picked up on it."

It could be a case of returning the favour after Davina starred in the Doctor Who Christmas special which saw current Doctor, Ncuti Gatwa, save her from a falling tree.

Or maybe Lauren was referencing a guest judging spot following Rita Ora's absence from part of the series due to work commitments elsewhere.

However, the official stand-ins released so far only include Charlie Simpson, Lorraine Kelly, Sir Lenny Henry, Rob Brydon and Ellie Goulding.

Walk On By star Dionne Warwick, competing as Weatherwas the first to get the boot in the series opener.

Producers of the ITV guessing game assumed she would stay on the programme as she sounded so good.

But after leaving the show, Dionne admitted: “They said I’d be here for this many weeks, and I said, ‘No I’m not. I can’t disguise my voice. The minute I open my mouth, I’m gone!’

“I have never been able to disguise my voice."
