Who won The Masked Singer 2026? Moth unveiled as singer-songwriter

by

After eight weeks of surprising celebrity reveals and amazing performances, the winner of The Masked Singer 2026 has finally been crowned.

Maya Jama, Jonathan Ross, Davina McCall, Mo Gilligan, and special guest Samantha Barks were back as the final three contestants battled it out to win the competition.

Moth, Toastie, and Conkers all gave incredible performances, but Moth ultimately won the competition. The big reveal? Keisha Buchanan was the person behind the mask!

Ben Shephard was revealed as Conkers, who took second place, and Mica Paris was unmasked as Toastie, finishing in third.

When asked about winning, Keisha shared how surprised she was to make it through the competition, describing it as both incredibly challenging and wonderful. She also mentioned performing a song she’d never attempted before, a Whitney Houston song, and that the Aerosmith song was the most nerve-wracking for her.

Performing Whitney Houston and Aerosmith’s songs was the most difficult for me. I was a big fan of Whitney personally, and I didn’t want to cover her music out of respect and love for her – she was an incredible person. As for Aerosmith, I simply don’t have the vocal ability to do their songs justice; it was a real challenge.

Throughout the competition, many well-known celebrities performed, trying their best to hide their identities from both the audience and the judges.

As the show progressed and viewers tried to guess the masked singers’ identities, clues were revealed each week. This led to the first unmaskings: Disc Jockey was revealed to be Alex Jones, and Teabag was revealed to be Professor Green.

After their identities were revealed, Yak was unmasked as John Lydon, the lead singer of the Sex Pistols, and then Gargoyle was revealed to be Marcella Detroit from Shakespeare’s Sister.

The first reveal of the night showed singer Kate Nash was the performer behind the Monkey Business costume, and Strictly Come Dancing judge Anton Du Beke was unmasked as Arctic Fox.

Over the next few weeks, the identities of several masked singers were revealed: Harry Hill was unmasked as Red Panda, Ben Fogle as Sloth, and JLS’s Marvin Humes as Can of Worms.
