Stacey Dooley is The Masked Dancer's Prawn Cocktail and admits 'red herring' clue after reveal

Stacey Dooley confessed that a Masked Dancer clue that led the panel in a completely different direction was a complete 'red herring' as she was voted off the show and unmasked as Prawn Cocktail.

Journalist Stacey is of course no stranger to a TV dancing competition, having won alongside Strictly Come Dancing in 2018, alongside now boyfriend Kevin Clifton. However, her two routines on Saturday night's episode of The Masked Dancer, her main performance and her Dance Jam, weren't enough to secure her another week in the show.

While the likes of Candlestick and Pillar and Post were voted through by the studio audience, Prawn Cocktail and Scissors, who many viewers are now convinced is Alexandra Burke, had to battle it out in the bottom two. And, sadly for Stacey, her dance to Girls Just Want to Have Fun, didn't sway the panel Prawn Cocktails way, with them instead choosing to save Scissors.
