The Masked Singer fans convinced Rita Ora has no idea who anyone is after odd reaction

The Masked Singer viewers were left in hysterics by Rita Ora's reaction to the second unmasking.

Former Home Secretary Alan Johnson was the second celebrity to be unveiled after he failed to impress the audience and the judges.

The ex-Labour MP lifted up his Pharaoh mask after singing The Bangles hit Walk Like An Egyptian ina dazzling golden costume.

There was a massive divide between those who recognised Alan and those who had no idea who he is.

The Masked Singer viewers joked that 'clueless' Rita was baffled by the unmasking due to her hilarious reaction.

Taking to Twitter, one viewer said: "Rita Ora is just as clueless as Hangover Ken from Hollywood. Neither know who on earth these people are when they take their masks off"

"Rita Ora pretending to know any of these people is hilarious," added another.

A third said: "Rita Ora’s reaction to seeing Alan Johnson on #MaskedSinger took me back to the second her act won on X Factor

"Rita just shouting Alan constantly like she has a f***ing clue who he is," said a fourth.

In fairness to Rita, many The Masked Singer viewers had no idea who Alan was either.

Taking to Twitter , one confused viewer said: "So now everyone switches to googling Alan Johnson"

"Alan Johnson.. I honestly had never heard of him," added another.

A third said: "Not a flipping scooby who Alan is?!"

Panellist Jonathan Ross had to apologise to Alan after guessing that he was Ann Widdecombe - but the former politician joked it was "cross party".

Some viewers did manage to work out who was under the Pharaoh mask before the big reveal.

The clue that he "saw the Queen on a daily basis" was in reference to his former job as a postman.

He also said that he was previously employed as a piece of furniture - because he used to be in the cabinet.

*The Masked Singer airs tonight on ITV at 8.00pm
