Maya Jama has given her take on Macy Gray's bizarre behaviour on The Masked Singer on Saturday. The I Try star, 57, left viewers gobsmacked when she found out she'd been eliminated as Toad in the Hole - wearing a Yorkshire pudding costume. When Macy found out her fate, she flounced off stage, swerving the customary reveal, with Maya, 30, posting the curious clip on her Instagram page. Captioning the video as the singer stomps past dumbstruck, host, Joel Dommett on stage, Maya teased: "Me at any minor inconvenience"'. The Love Island star can then be seen open-mouthed, telling fellow judge, Jonathan Ross: "Toad's off!" as Macy makes her exit.
Macy sent fans into a frenzy after she 'threw a strop' on the smash-hit show, with producers reportedly spending nearly an hour convincing the singer to return for her unmasking and final performance. When host Joel announced that Toad in the Hole was the third celebrity to be going home, the I've Committed Murder star didn't stay around for the customary reveal and instead walked off set. A source who was at the show recording told The Sun that the singer was "totally blindsided", revealing: "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," the insider claimed.
"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.".
