Paul Whitehouse has addressed the rumours speculating that he's Kingfisher on The Masked Singer.
The British comedian was quizzed by Lorraine Kelly during a recent episode of her ITV talk show, where she showed him a teaser clip of Kingfisher singing 'Iris' by the Goo Goo Dolls from this weekend's episode.
"Is that you?" the presenter questioned him. "Look me in the eyes and tell me."

"Well, if I say yes, you wont believe me, and if I say no, you won't believe me," Paul replied, to which Lorraine added: "It would make sense with kingfishers, because they are there when you're fishing.
Paul then shared who he believes is behind the mask, teasing: "Whoever has done it, Harry Hill, are very cleverly throwing the focus towards me."

"Ooh, do you think it's him?" asked Lorraine, to which Paul added: "There are rumours flying around."
Lorraine then concluded that it "could be anyone", before Paul pointed out that "that's the joy of the show".
