Scissors was crowned winner of The Masked Dancer last night and revealed as American actress and dancer Heather Morris.

The finale of the second series of the show, which aired on ITV, saw Heather compete against two other masked dancers to take the crown.

Heather, who appeared in the hit TV series Glee and performed as Beyonce’s backing dancer, remained un-guessed throughout the series.

She danced to ‘Respect’ by Aretha Franklin to win over the judges who had previously thought Scissors could be Ashley Roberts from The Pussycat Dolls or Dance Moms’ Jojo-Siwa.

Heather, 35, said her two sons, aged eight and six, were the inspiration behind her taking part in the show. 

She told host Joel Dommett: “I have had the best time, this has made my heart so full.

“I feel like a little kid again dancing on stage.”

And there were two more dancers unmasked in the final.

Second place dancer Onomatopoeia was revealed to be Australian actor Adam Garcia, 49.

Adam gave judges and viewers subtle clues throughout the series by making reference to Australia and musical theatre.
