Firework has been unmasked on The Masked Singer 2022 – who was behind the mask?
The Masked Singer UK season 3 began airing this month on ITV.
The series sees famous faces fight to put on the best musical performance while keeping their identities secret with help from spectacular masks.
One of the contestants on 2022’s show is Firework who was unmasked in the latest episode.
Who is Firework on The Masked Singer?
At the end of the sixth episode, Firework was revealed as actress Jaime Winstone.
Jamie said after her exit: “I had seen a few episodes and thought it was wild. I loved the idea of it and how much joy my son Raymond and godson Bear enjoy it.
“The last two years have been very doom and gloom for our industry and ultimately, I love to perform. I usually take on roles that are very gritty and serious, so for me this was a great way to show people what I can do, what I love doing and to make my son very happy. He’s going to think his mummy is a firework. This was my main reason.”
In the first episode, Firework performed Domino by Jessie J while their second performance was to hit song Fame by Irene Cara. In week 3, Firework performed Kids by Robbie Williams & Kylie Minogue while week four saw them singing ABBA’s Waterloo.
In their clue packages, Firework described themselves as a “pocket rocket” and a “bundle of energy” who “likes to be scared”. There have also been references for parties, fashion, labels and foxes – as well as the letters ‘ALB TRE’.
In a cryptic clue to the panel, Firework shared: “I light up the street with a different kind of flash.”
In week two, Firework offered up two lies and one truth: “I made a real impression with something I love”, “You couldn’t make up how I beat nine hundred people” and “I don’t like waste but I have been guilty of dumping.”
Guesses from the panel included Spice Girl Melanie C, actress Michelle Keegan and Love Islander Dani Dyer.
Meanwhile viewers at home were convinced Firework was Pixie Lott.
“Firework has to be Pixie Lott!!! #maskedsingeruk” one wrote on Twitter. Another commented confidently: “THAT VOICE IS PIXIE LOTT. FIREWORK IS PIXIE LOTT. #MaskedSingerUK”
And a third suggested after Firework’s performance of Kids in week three: “Kids cos Pixie Lott is on The Voice Kids. Firework is Pixie Lott. #MaskedSingerUK”.
The Masked Singer’s third season airs Saturdays on ITV.
More characters competing in the series are Lionfish, Bagpipes, Panda, Robobunny, Snow Leopard, Rockhopper, Traffic Cone, Poodle, Mushroom, Doughnuts and Chandelier.
