Followers of The Masked Singer have been left wondering if ITV “run out of budget” for Ghost’s disguise, despite the fact that the majority of the series 4 costumes have inspired amazement among the fans of the show.
During the episode that aired on Sunday, it was revealed that Ghost is actually football commentator Chris Kamara. The identities of the presenter and the judges Davina McCall, Rita Ora, and Mo Gilligan remained hidden throughout the episode.
Before leaving, Kammy, who is 65 years old, sang “Save the Last Dance for Me” by The Drifters with a Scottish accent. Kammy afterwards made fun of this performance.
But audiences were totally distracted by his rather lacklustre costume and branded it ‘literally a sheet’.
Flocking to Twitter to express their disappointment, one viewer said: ‘Clearly ran out of budget before they got to the Ghost costume.’
Echoing a similar sentiment, another wrote: ‘Ghost showing the cost of living crisis has hit the ITV budget.’
Despite the criticism, some were loving the designers’ handiwork, with one enthusing: ‘I think I’m the only one who loves the simplicity of Ghost’s costume.’
‘Ghosts costume is the worst thing I’ve ever seen and I’m obsessed,’ another fangirled.
Kammy was a big fan of his Ghost costume though, and that’s all that matters.

‘I loved it,’ he exclaimed. ‘It was simple but that’s what I really liked about it.’
He also said he ‘resonated’ with the disguise because of its simplicity. ‘I just loved the concept and thought my grandkids would love it as well,’ Kammy added.
He did, however, find the costume difficult to sing in though. ‘I never realised how hard that would be,’ he told ITV. ‘It’s very claustrophobic.’
Following his exit, Kammy shared the adorable moment his grandkids watched him being unmasked on the show.
‘It’s my grandad!’ one beamed while sitting on Kammy’s knee.
Next Saturday, the remaining characters – Fawn, Jacket Potato, Piece of Cake, Pigeon, Rhino, and Rubbish – will be taking to the stage to sing in disguise.
The Masked Singer continues on Saturday at 7pm on ITV.
