Macy Gray's appearance on The Masked Singer as Toad In The Hole took an unexpected turn when she stormed off stage after being eliminated. Fans took to X, formerly Twitter, when they say the singer 'storm off'. One user wrote: "Macy Gray being angry whilst hanging out of a Yorkshire pudding costume is the greatest thing of 2025 so far." Whilst another added: "Macy Gray throwing a stop on British TV while dressed as a Toad in the Hole was not on my 2025 bingo card, but here we are.".
A third penned: "Pop culture moment of 2025, Macy Gray storming off stage in a toad outfit after being sent home then coming back and being SALTY AF to the judges who are standing there being BRITISH AF acting like everything’s fine.". Producers spent nearly an hour convincing her to return for the unmasking and final performance. "This has never happened on The Masked Singer before," a source told The Sun. The source added: "When Macy stormed off stage everyone was frozen in shock but as soon as she reached backstage, crew removed her mask so they could talk her down.
“Macy was almost shellshocked to start with and was basically gutted to be out so early because she really enjoyed being on the American version - when obviously she did brilliantly - so was totally blindsided. It was the shock of it for her as well as the upset and in that moment she had a very raw, human reaction and wanted out. For a professional performer to reach that point shows how badly she felt.
“Obviously The Masked Singer isn't a singing competition and is just a bit of fun, so being voted off was no indication of her talent, but no one could believe a global superstar like Macy had lost it like this. It took everyone backstage ages to talk her round and poor Joel was on stage essentially doing a stand-up routine to try and keep things under control.
