But the Glee star narrowly missed out on a place in the final and was sent home with Jacket Potato tonight, who was unveiled as 80s legend Richie Sambora.

The judges were stunned by the unveiling, with with Amber explaining that she “picked songs that people would not recognise my voice”.

They told host Joel Dommett: “You sang a Bon Jovi song tonight and Richie Sambora is on the show, he’s just been revealed.”

A stunned Amber said: “Are you being serious?”, to which Joel added: “I am being serious.”

The American actress, who played Mercedes Jones, belted out Bon Jovi hit Shot Through the Heart as she took to the stage for the final time.

This means Fawn, Phoenix and Rhino made it through to the grand final.

It comes after fans were stunned that the American rock guitarist Richie Sambora, who is best known as the lead guitarist of the rock band Bon Jovi from 1983 to 2013, was revealed as the hot spud.

Davina McCall was correct with her guess and admitted she had “goosebumps”.

Host Joel Dommett listed off a number of clues that the singer-songwriter had shared throughout his time on the show, including lyrics “shot through the heart” and “halfway there” and the title of his studio album 7800° Fahrenheit.

Richie said about his costume: “It took a little getting used to, but once I put it on that was it.

“It’s a wild reality doing this show – It’s been a lot of fun, I’d figure we’d fool some people.”

The show kicked off with Jellyfish as the first character to make a splash on the stage.

In the VT the masked star can be seen with a glitter ball and the mystery clue was ”spangle”.

Rita Ora was convinced she recognised Jellyfish’s voice – but she couldn’t remember who it was.

Jonathan Ross thought it was Glee star Amber Riley, Rita went for singing superstar Jennifer Hudson, Mo Gilligan guessed 80s songstress Chaka Khan and Davina had gone for Alesha Dixon.

While guest star Peter Crouch guessed Lea Michell.

Hoping to bring the heat next was Jacket Potato – but left fans confused with the clue “billions”, with the judges unsure whether it referred to money.

While doe eyed star Fawn was back and the judges were in awe of their beautiful rendition of Tomorrow.

Peter guessed classical pianist Myleene Klass.

The clue was platinum and the judges think it referred to albums.

Next up was Phoenix and Mo in particular loved the song choice which in his words is a tune.

Lastly Rhino took to the stage, with a number of guesses including James Arthur, Busted star Charlie Simpson and Mo guessing Robbie Williams.
