AMANDA Holden has given the biggest hint yet that she’s the mystery face behind a Masked Dancer act.
The actress, performer and DJ, 51, remained coy when addressing the suggestion she is the face behind the ITV show’s Scissors during her Heart Radio breakfast show.
Her Heart Breakfast co-host Jamie Theakston and showbiz reporter Ashley Roberts grilled Amanda on-air this morning about her potential The Masked Dancer debut.
Finally, giving a teasing hint, Amanda exclaimed: “I couldn’t possibly say could I!”
Scissors, who arrived to kick-start the ITV show’s second season, wowed with a routine that showed them sporting a shimmering silver and black catsuit.
Two huge googling eyes topped off the look for one of The Masked Dancer‘s crazy characters who battled it out against characters such as Candlestick and Astronaut with a routine to Justin Bieber track, Sorry.
The ITV competition sees celebrities in elaborate masks and costumes perform in front of a panel of judges.
The Masked Dancer is a spin-off of the enormously successful Masked Singer, which has been a big hit for the broadcaster.
HOAR previously reported that fans were convinced they had Scissors worked out.
They pipped Amanda as the snippy dancer, thanks to her role in BBC drama Cutting It – where she played a hairdresser.
She addressed the speculation in her radio chat, where she confessed: “I was in a drama called Cutting It…”
As Jamie asked for other clues provided by the show, Amanda teased: “A bowl of cereal I think is a clue…and…a, I can’t think of what else, but I know the rumours have been that it’s me.
“I couldn’t possibly say could I! Apparently this person has been on tour…”
She then added: “Along with lots of other things…I don’t know…I’m just putting it out there.”
Amanda then told Ashley to “stay tuned sister” as she refused to give anything away.
“Amanda Holden was in ‘Cutting it’, but can she dance like Scissors just danced?” one fan wrote on Twitter.
“Scissors is Amanda Holden,” a second chimed in, as a third said: “It’s surely got to be Amanda Holden as Scissors.”
Meanwhile, others have suggested the person behind the snippy figure is presenting duo Ant and Dec’s best pal.
Several fans have also guessed that the performer is Little Mix’s Jade Thirlwall, saying many of the clues added up.
