McFly's Danny Jones has revealed the heartwarming conversation he had with his young son after his emotional exit from The Masked Singer. The musician, who was disguised as 'Piranha' on the hit ITV show, opened up about the touching moment during a recent interview.
Jones, 37, described how his son reacted after seeing his dad unmasked following a powerful performance of Elton John's Rocket Man. "He just looked at me and said 'Daddy, I'm so proud of you'," the singer shared, visibly moved by the memory.
A Father-Son Moment to Remember
The McFly guitarist explained how the experience became an important teaching moment about perseverance and emotional expression. "It's not about winning or losing," Jones told his son. "It's about giving it your all and showing how much you care."
Fans saw Jones break down in tears after his elimination, with judges praising his raw, emotional performance. The musician admitted the song held special meaning, making the moment even more poignant.
Behind the Mask
Jones spoke about the challenges of performing incognito on the popular singing competition. "When you're hidden behind a costume, you can really let go and be free with your emotions," he explained. "That performance came straight from the heart."
The father-of-two also shared how his children had been his biggest supporters throughout the competition, though they had to keep his secret identity under wraps. "They knew it was me all along," Jones laughed. "Kids are too clever these days!"
Jones's appearance on The Masked Singer has reignited interest in McFly, with fans eagerly anticipating new music from the band. The group recently celebrated 20 years together, marking the occasion with a special anniversary tour.
