FURIOUS fans of The Masked Singer have called for the judges to be axed – after failing to recognise an ‘obvious star’.
Viewers are certain they’ve worked out the identity of Bush on the hit ITV show.
They reckon it’s EastEnders legend Natalie Cassidy, aka Sonia Fowler, behind the mask.
One wrote on X: “How are the judges not hearing this it’s NATALIE CASSIDY!! #maskedsingeruk.”
Another added: “Can we all collectively agree that the judges are rubbish#MaskedSingerUK.”
A third penned: “The bush that sounds exactly like Natalie cassidy and is Natalie cassidy and has sang the whole time like Natalie cassidy.. Yet not one judge can guess it…
“Think it’s time for new judges… #maskedsinger #maskedsingeruk.”
While a fourth wrote: “these judges are being deliberately obtuse i fear #MaskedSingerUK.”
Meanwhile, Natalie has previously denied being the star behind Bush’s mask.
She said emphatically on her Off The Telly podcast: “I am not Bush.”
Continuing to inform co-host Joanna Page, Natalie added: “We have worked together for a whole year.
“When would I have I squeezed that in?”

Australian-born Morgana won series 12 of Taskmaster and has appeared in shows including The Windsors and Inside No.9.

One speculated: “I was CONVINCED Bush was Natalie Cassidy but now I’m sooooo convinced it’s Morgana Robinson doing her Natalie Cassidy impression.”
[boxout headline=”Who won The Masked Singer 2025?” featured-image=”32646117″ intro=”Much to the delight of telly fans, The Masked Singer came back in 2025.”]Twelve celebrities were hidden behind intricate costumes, with their identities concealed.
Pufferfish – This year’s winner had flawless vocals throughout the competition. West End powerhouse Samantha Barks told the audience she’d loved every second of the series.
Dressed Crab – Former American football player turned jazz singer Gregory Porter was the man behind the crustacean. He duetted with Keala Settle, who previously competed as Air Fryer, in the final.
Wolf – Wet Wet Wet heartthrob Marti Pellow was unmasked as the rugged character. McFly’s Danny Jones, who won last year’s show as Piranha, was on the panel in the final and paid his respects to the Scottish crooner.
Bush – she didn’t fool viewers and the judges were so close, but Bush was in fact EastEnders legend Natalie Cassidy. Davina McCall came closest, guessing Morgana Robinson, who does a mean impression of the Sonia actress
Bear – another success for new judge Maya Jama as she guessed correctly that the singing Bear was none other than singer, songwriter Example – real name Elliot Gleave.
Snail – this singer certainly fooled the judges as the mask was lifted to reveal Andrea Corr. Jonathan Ross admitted to being a huge fan of The Corrs.
Kingfisher – everyone was convinced this was Harry Hill, but the mask was lifted to reveal artist Sir Grayson Perry, who is known for his alter-ego Claire.
Teeth – this character baffled judges and viewers with their changing voice. They were finally unmasked as former Bake Off host Mel Giedroyc. None of the panel managed to guess it was her.
Tattoo – despite Davina McCall saying “you sound the same” after this character was unmasked, none of the judges guessed it was 80s singer Carol Decker, whose hit China In Your Hand was a No1 hit for five weeks.
Toad In The Hole – a massive diva strop saw the character storm off the stage after the judges voted them off. They later returned to be unmasked as singer Macy Gray.
Pegasus – the mythical horse was revealed to be Prue Leith, with judge Jonathan Ross correctly guessing her identity.
Spag Bol – this character was first to be unmasked and was none other than Good Morning Britain host Kate Garraway.
Plus there was one extra unmasking this season, with Giant Joel – a caricature of host Joel Dommett – unveiled as double-double Olympic champion Sir Mo Farah.
A fellow fan agreed, writing: “Turned on #MaskedSingerUK and I think the singing bush is Morgana Robinson as Nat Cass.”
Someone else stated: “I’m sure bush is Morgana Robinson.”
As well as Natalie and Morgana, After Life actress Kerry Godliman has also been guessed for Bush.
The Masked Singer airs on ITV1 and ITVX.
