Fans are outraged with Tom Sandoval for stealing the spotlight from his ex Ariana Madix. Sandoval was recently revealed as a contestant on “The Masked Singer” while Madix competes on “Dancing With the Stars.”
Sandoval confirmed speculation that he was the Diver on the Fox singing competition after his elimination, but many viewers criticized him for participating in the show while Madix is on “DWTS.”
“Of course he needs to be on a show right now… Ariana can’t have all the spotlight on DWTS!” one person commented on the “Masked Singer” Instagram account.
“Damn, he is desperate,” another wrote.
“Watching the masked singer and I know DAMN well the diver is Tom Sandoval. Man really signed up for a show because Ariana was doing Dancing With the Stars. What an attention seeker,” a third viewer tweeted.
“Sandoval didn’t last on #TheMaskedSinger but Ariana will go far on #DWTS!” another wrote.
“Ew. So desperate for singers, you’re now hiring cheating bastards? Disgusting. Glad I stopped watching this show,” someone else tweeted.
“Let’s give a cheating P.O.S more airtime. *Sigh*,” one user pointed out.
“He’s getting way too much exposure for being a pos,” another agreed.
“Dude is just trying to do anything, and I mean anything, to make people like him!” one skeptic wrote.
“First of all, ew. Second of all, ew,” one more tweeted.
Even before Season 10 of “The Masked Singer” began in September, many fans were convinced Sandoval, 41, had joined the show based on clues given by the Diver referencing “Vanderpump Rules” and being “hated” by the public.
“Usually, I’m pretty pumped, but lately, I’ve been lost in the abyss,” the still-masked Diver said prior to the season premiere. “I might be the most hated creature in the ocean right now.”
In costume, Sandoval later hinted that he loves “the club,” had “modeled and acted,” and was currently struggling with public hatred.
After being unmasked, Sandoval expressed how he “knew” he would be figured out right away.

“This was so much fun. Being able to come out here and perform behind a mask, not being judged and just being judged on my performance, it was really nice,” he said.
In addition to “The Masked Singer,” Sandoval is also starring on Season 2 of Fox’s “Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test.”
Meanwhile, Madix, 38, has made it to the third week of “DWTS” with her pro partner, Pasha Pashkov, and has consistently been at the top of the leaderboard.
While Sandoval has publicly stated in various interviews that he will be supporting and voting for Madix, Madix told Page Six exclusively in the “DWTS” ballroom that she has not heard directly from him.
Sandoval and Madix made headlines in March when their relationship was rocked by Sandoval’s months-long affair with her close friend and co-star Raquel Leviss.
