Brit Award nominee Cat Burns has turned viral TikTok success into chart entries, but her next challenge trades studio booths for secret passageways. Both the Evening Standard and list Burns among confirmed contestants, noting she is a self confessed Traitors superfan who live tweets every episode.
Burns plans to weaponise that fandom. Pre filming Instagram stories showed her rewatching series 3 with a notebook titled “tells”. She captioned one clip “sleeping on social cues is how you lose 90 grand.” Such commitment impressed producers who granted her a rare request to bring coloured pens and sticky notes for nightly analysis.
Musically, Burns is known for soft vocal delivery, but insiders say she has surprised cast mates with assertive round table speeches during practice games. One crew member likened her tone switch to “pressing a mute button on kindness then jumping to full courtroom prosecutor”.
Burns also enters with a social media army. Her 2.4 million TikTok followers have pledged to create compilation videos of subtle facial reactions once episodes air, potentially influencing public sympathy if she reaches the final vote.
Traitors psychologist Paul Grist believes musicians possess heightened emotional awareness that aids lie detection. If Burns applies that awareness without appearing too forensic, she could glide through early banishments. Bookmaker Coral currently offers eighteen to one odds for an outright win, a mid table price that savvy viewers are already calling undervalued.
