The star said it was a ‘fun’ experience, but revealed ‘some people got mad’ as she went to great lengths to hide her participation in the show from her loved ones.
The Sun reported what Joss said after unveiling her disguise: ‘It’s really just being able to have fun and not be judged as well.
‘We all have our preconceptions of somebody. All of that was out of the window, it’s just music, it’s just a laugh.’
