You silly Jossage

Sensational Sausage Joss chips in with ‘hello lovely’ to shocked panel

BRIT award winner Joss Stone was revealed as Sausage last night as she won the coveted crown on The Masked Singer.

The laughing singer, 33, said “hello lovely” to the shocked panel as her sausage head was removed.

Joss, a friend of Prince Harry, said: ‘’Life can be too serious, we should just dress up in chips and sausage and have a sing song. This has been the funnest, most hilarious job I have ever had. I have laughed so much.’’ Earlier, fans had been predicting that Sausage was either Stacey Solomon or Sheridan Smith.

Runner-up was US singer songwriter Ne-Yo, 41, who was revealed as Badger.

He gained fame for his songwriting abilities when he penned his 2004 hit Let Me Love You for singer Mario.

After having his identity revealed, Ne-Yo said: “I’ve had so much fun with this, I really have. It’s a great experience, man. I would happily do it again but I might have to work a little harder to fool you guys.’’

JLS singer Aston Merrygold was the first of the three show finalists to be unmasked last night. He had been performing as Robin.

The 33-year-old sang Stevie Wonder’s

For Once In My Life in the last round of the ITV singing competition. He said appearing on The Masked Singer had been a “brilliant’’ experience.

When asked if any of his fellow JLS band members knew he was on the show, he added: “No. Hi guys.’’

The judges mostly guessed it was Aston but Jonathan Ross punted for Alexandra Burke.

Aston’s earlier performance of Rockin’ Robin was a big clue, however – he performed the song on Stars In Their Eyes as a child.
