BAFTA for her role in new film CODA, has revealed that she was quick to figure it out. Aled Jones, 51, appeared on our screens last Saturday dressed as a traffic cone, while Destiny's Child star Michelle Williams was revealed to be behind the character of Rockhopper.Aled’s daughter Emilia, 19, spoke about her dad’s time on the show during an interview with Zoe Ball on BBC Radio 2 today. “If anyone doesn’t know, Emilia’s dad is Traffic Cone from The Masked Singer,” Zoe told her listeners.She then asked Emilia if she had any idea that her dad would be participating in the ITV talent show.“I didn’t!” Emilia confirmed. “He didn’t tell me, but I was like, ‘Why are we suddenly watching this show? “We’ve never watched it any year before, and I was like, ‘Why are we now all sat down on a Saturday watching The Masked Singer?’”When Zoe quizzed Emilia on how quickly she figured out that it was Aled behind the mask, she replied: “So quickly.”“I mean the second week, week two, he did a slower song and I was like, ‘Dad, that sounds exactly like you!

Like, your phrasing, your opera singer kind of sound.’“Because the first week he did like a pop song… But also in the VT stuff someone else was in his Traffic Cone outfit, because he was an amazing dancer. “So, I was like, ‘Maybe it’s not dad, because he’s throwing some great moves that dad definitely wouldn't throw’ - so it was quite confusing.”Emilia appeared on Zoe’s show to talk about her role in the film CODA, which has been nominated for multiple BAFTAs and Academy Awards.

The actress portrayed lead character Ruby Rossi in the film, and is now in the running for the Best Actress award alongside a number of high-profile actresses, including global pop star Lady Gaga, The Thick of.
