*Macy Gray stormed off the stage after the judges of the UK version of “The Masked Singer” decided not to save her during the sing-off. 

The judges instead chose fellow contestant Bear, leaving the audience shocked. After the broadcast, host Joel Dommett opened up about the incident, stating that Gray’s reaction was because she felt “blindsided” by her early elimination, Too Fab reports.

Judge Maya Jama shared a clip of the moment Gray, performing as Toad in the Hole, walked off stage, captioning it, “Me at any minor inconvenience.”

After the broadcast, Dommett opened up to The Daily Mail about what happened. “This is why The Masked Singer is so good, it doesn’t matter if you’re a good singer or if you’re not, the show doesn’t sit in either camp,” he said.

“The case with Macy is she is a legend, she has a recognizable voice and she might as well go because we all know it is her, and they put the other person through because we still don’t know who they are,” the host added.

Gray, who has previously appeared on both the US and Australian versions of “The Masked Singer,” was eliminated in the third week of the new UK competition. As for storming off the set, Dommett said, “You can’t be vexed when you’re dressed as a toad. In my professional career — I love Macy, she is incredible, great voice —- but I have never witnessed anything more funny than a 6ft toad storming off,” he told The Daily Mail. “It’s the funniest thing I’ve ever seen in my life.”

Gray felt “totally blindsided” by her early elimination, so she stormed off the stage, The Sun reports. Although the singer returned for her unmasking, the process behind the scenes to convince her to do so took an hour.

Many social media users criticized Macy for her messy reaction. One person wrote on X: “The #macygray reveal was so awkward! She was seething! I mean it was so uncomfortable to watch,” user @@hayleybethyoung wrote. “It was a crap reason to vote her off… yeah, we all knew it was her… but it’s Macy Gray (she CAN sing) and so much better than loads of others.”
