ITV Masker Singer Host Joel Dommett 'Warned by Producers' After Major Slip-Up
Joel Dommett was disciplined by ITV producers after accidentally revealing a contestant's identity during filming, causing laughter among the studio audience.
- This year, while filming the Masked Singer Christmas Special, Joel Dommett admitted ITV producers put him 'on the naughty step' after he recognised Mistletoe's distinctive chuckle and revealed the celebrity's identity; the special airs Boxing Day at 7.30pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
- Hearing the distinctive laugh, Dommett named the performer without thinking after recognising Mistletoe's chuckle, and ITV producers reminded him he must not reveal identities on set.
- The studio audience erupted in laughter as Joel Dommett, 40-year-old host, sank to the floor red-faced and told The Sun `I can’t believe I did it`, later joking `I’m absolutely livid about that`.
- While the incident will air in the final edit, producers are keeping the unmasked identity secret until broadcast, and fans must wait just over a week to learn who Dommett recognised.
- The Masked Singer relies on its all-star panel — Davina McCall, Maya Jama, Mo Gilligan and Jonathan Ross — to guess masked stars, with past drama including Macy Gray storming off this year and four festive characters raising stakes later this month.
