The Masked Singer 2026 finalists confirmed as Sloth and Can of Worms leave show in double unmasking
There's just three characters leftThe Masked Singer 2026 finalists have been confirmed following the unmasking of Sloth and Can of Worms in a double whammy tonight.
Sloth was first to be unmasked in the semi-final, with Can or Worms following at the end of the show.
It came after all five semi-finalists had each sung a song.
Taking to the stage on Saturday night was Toastie, Moth, Conker, Sloth and Can of Worms.
So who was behind Sloth and Can of Worms – and who is in the 2026 Masked Singer final?
The Masked Singer: Who was Sloth?
Judges Mo Gilligan, Davina McCall, Maya Jama and Jonathan Ross were joined on the panel by Katherine Ryan for the semi-final.
It was a welcome returned for Canadian comedian Katherine, who competed in the show herself in 2023. Katherine took part as Pigeon.
One all the five remaining characters had sung once, the audience voted. Sloth received the fewest votes, so had to be unmasked.
The judging panel was stunned to find TV presenter Ben Fogle had been hiding underneath the giant furry costume.
Once unmasked, Ben joked he had lost weight from singing each week due to the weight and warmth of his outfit.
He also told the panel and viewers at home: “I’ve done this for everyone out there who has an inner Sloth!”
Viewers were delighted to see Ben had been hiding as Sloth. Taking to X, many shared their thoughts.
One wrote: ‘Ben Fogle has given everything to the character – Sloth has been so much fun every week! What a great sport.”
Another added: “What a surprise! Wouldn’t have guessed Ben Fogle in a million years. Well done!” And another added: “I was convinced sloth was David Baddiel no way would I have said Ben Fogle!”
Who was Can of Worms?
Following Sloth’s exit, it was time for Toastie, Moth, Conker and Can of Worms to sing for a second time.
The audience got to vote again and, this time, Can of Worms received the fewest votes. They were then unmasked moments later.
Following chants of “take it off”, Can of Worms removed its head to reveal Marvin Humes underneath. But not everyone was shocked, as Mo Gilligan had previously guessed it was Marvin Humes.
Marvin told the panel he had been singing the songs he sings to his three kids at home. He added: “It’s been the best show I’ve been part of!”
Fans were once again quick to react online. One gushed: “TRUE JLS FAN!! I KNEW IT WAS YOU!”
Someone else wrote: “Knew it was one of JLS, the farming clues just threw me off. Well done Marvin!” And a third added: “Ahh love Marvin. A genuinely nice guy!”
