The Masked Singer is the smash ITV singing series which has taken Britain by storm.Making its UK debut in 2020, the fun show sees a number of celebrity contestants belt out karaoke classics while dressed in disguise.It's then up to the judges - Jonathan Ross, Davina McCall, Rita Ora and Mo Gilligan - and viewers at home to guess who the masked celebrity is via the use of clues from host Joel Dommett and audio aids.So, what are the best and worst judge guesses in The Masked Singer's brief if entertaining history?Daily Star has conducted a deep dive to try and find out.The hands-down worst The Masked Singer guess of all-time was uttered by Jonathan Ross.The judge, 61, made a grave error during the 2020 series when he tried to work out the identity of Masked Singer contestant Daisy.Jonathan incorrectly guessed that the celebrity in disguise was Natalie Cole, the daughter of legendary jazz musician Nat King Cole.He didn't realise that Natalie had in fact died in 2015 at the age of 65 after suffering congestive heart failure.The incorrect guess saw The Masked Singer criticised by fans online, with ITV receiving a fair amount of backlash for allowing the scene (the show is pre-recorded) to air.One viewer wrote at the time: "I’d certainly be choosing people who are alive.

Natalie Cole?!?! How did you let that be broadcast?"Another commented: "So disrespectful of @itvstudios to put Natalie Cole photo up too #TheMaskedSingeruk SMH." The Masked Singer's Daisy character was later revealed to be Girls Aloud star, Nicola Roberts.She ended up winning the show.On the current run of the show, it was Rita Ora who was left red-faced by her terrible guess.The Hot Right Now singer, 31, raised eyebrows when she was asked for her opinion on.
