Macy Gray shocked fans after storming off stage at Masked Singer UK on Saturday night.

It took ITV production staff an hour to persuade Macy to return to the stage after her jaw-dropping blow when she was told to remove her mask.

But it is not the first time that the 57-year-old singer has made a chaotic appearance in her career that leaves her fans stunned.

She had a similar meltdown in 2021 when she appeared on the Australian version of the show and became grumpy when she was rejected.

It comes as no surprise to those who have encountered Macy’s strange behavior, as Lord Snowdon even called the singer the “rudest person” after she walked out on her Vogue photo shoot.

He also sparked concern when he claimed he was a “vampire” during a regular appearance on Lorraine.

Following the star’s latest meltdown, MailOnline takes a look back at all the Macy’s diva moments in the fiery star’s life.

Walked off stage at Masked Singer UK

Macy Gray ‘said goodbye’ to The Masked Singer on Saturday night after being the latest celebrity to be booted.

Presenter Joel Dommett said it was “the funniest thing I’ve ever seen in my life” when the American singer, dressed as a giant Toad, walked off stage after the results.

Speaking to Paddy McGuinness on BBC Radio 2 on Sunday, Joel joked that Macy couldn’t be disappointed about leaving the show early “because you get the same money and you don’t have to do anything else.”

He said: “That’s why The Masked Singer is so good, it doesn’t matter if you’re a good singer or not, the show doesn’t fall into either camp.”

“The thing about Macy is that she’s a legend, she has a recognizable voice and she might as well go because we all know it’s her, and they move on to the other person because we don’t know who they are yet.

“If you come home early, it’s a win-win situation because you get the same money and you don’t have to do anything else.”

He continued: ‘You can’t get angry when you’re dressed like a toad. In my professional career, I love Macy, she has an amazing, great voice, but I’ve never witnessed anything funnier than a 6-foot toad storming out. It’s the funniest thing I’ve ever seen in my life.

“And my shorts, I suggested we shorten them for every commercial break as a joke, and they did, and when she stormed off I was in shorts.”

Macy looked unimpressed and completely shocked by ITV viewers as she walked off stage after being announced as the latest celebrity to leave The Masked Singer UK.

The American singer had to remove her head from the costume to reveal her identity after being rejected after performing against Bear, Wolf, Pufferfish and Bush.

Joel also shared a clip on his Instagram grid of him hosting the show while Macy walked away and simply wrote, ‘lol.’

Meanwhile, judge Maya Jama shared a TikTok created by ITVX about the Macy’s exit that said, “I will respond to any inconvenience”:
