The Masked Dancer’s Oti Mabuse mortified as she accidentally reveals major clue to one star’s identity

THE Masked Dancer judge Oti Mabuse was left mortified as she accidentally revealed a MAJOR clue to one's star's identity.

The former Strictly dancer, 32, joined Rochelle Humes and Vernon Kay on today's instalment of This Morning to spill the beans on the new series of the ITV dance competition.

The South African star said: "I'm always so nervous to say anything about The Masked Dancer because I give away clues.

"Right now I'm actually shaking."

ITV has lined-up 11 other celebs dressed in crazy costumes for the toe-tapping spin-off to The Masked Singer, including Pillar and Post, Tomato Sauce and Pearly King.

Oti teased that Pearly King is an early front-runner, but in the process accidentally revealed the gender of the person inside the costume.

"We have a Lion....Pearly King...I think he steals...or she steals the show.," Oti corrected herself.

Realising her mistake, Oti gasped: "You see, I'm so nervous...why did they bring me on."

The famous faces behind each mask will be hoping to follow in the footsteps of series one winner, Olympic gymnast Louis Smith.

While the humans behind the masks may be a mystery the cast of costumes have been revealed.

In an all-new twist in the second outing for the star- spangled guessing game, a duo will compete.

Other costumes include Pig, Candlestick, Onomaopoeia, Cactus, Prawn Cocktail, Odd Socks, Scissors, Sea Slug and Astronaut.

The show could not go on without its host and famous judges.

Joel Dommett is back as host, providing humour and comentary as the panel tries to guess who is behind the mask.

Returning judges are Jonathan Ross, Oti Mabuse and Davina McCall.

They will be joined by Peter Crouch – famed for his robot dance in his football days – as Mo Gilligan is out on tour.
