The Hertfordshire resident has continuously impressed fans with her antics in The Traitors.
She was chosen by Claudia Winkleman to be one of the players to hold the poisoned chalice in the first episode of the third instalment.
Viewers branded her as a pantomime villain and as ‘iconic’ after she delivered lines like: “You don’t have to be a sailor to tie a rope.”
Another line which had viewers laughing was when she exclaimed: “Oh my god, who the HELL is going to come back?”
At breakfast she then cried over the murder of Livi Deane after her elimination the night before, which led to raised eyebrows around the table.
Now, a clip from her past has potentially been unearthed by a TikTok user, which whipped fans of the show into a frenzy.
The video featured a very talented woman who bore a striking resemblance to the retired Opera singer.
It showed footage of a London production of Giuseppe Verdi’s Rigoletto from 1982.
A stunning woman with cropped blonde hair uses her crisp voice to perform the high notes.
The caption above the video read: “Linda from the traitors !!!!!!”
According to The Tab, Linda Rands is credited as a vocalist on the official soundtrack of Rigoletto.
This information is also available on the site, Discogs.com.
A full video of production is also available on YouTube and Linda Rands is listed in the credits as playing a character named ‘Un paggio’ – translated to pageboy.
In the rolling credits in the video, her name is listed in playing the role of ‘secretary’.
How does The Traitors work and who hosts it?
The Traitors first launched in the UK in 2022, after the Dutch format was acquired by the BBC.
Claudia Winkleman is the show’s host, and has now hosted all three series to date.
How does it work?
It is a reality game show that involves 22 contestants, and some of them are chosen to be The Traitors.
The Traitors sees a group of contestants taking part in “the ultimate game of truth and deception”.
The group of contestants are competing for the chance to walk away with a huge cash prize.
While navigating through a series of challenges, the team are also tasked with figuring out who the Traitors are in the group (usually three contestants).
Each night, the Traitors gather to “eliminate” one of the Faithful, removing them from the competition
Meanwhile, the traitors can be “banished” if they’re successfully outed as a traitor by a faithful.
The winners of the show are either the Traitor who remains undetected or the Faithfuls if they successfully eliminate all the Traitors.
The prize sees the winner could get £120K.
Viewers flooded the comments section underneath as they celebrated the finding.
One fan exclaimed: “Yesss! I’ve been wanting to see clips of her singing!”
“My tutor used to do wigs for an opera house and worked with her! Apparently very lovely and typical theatre kind of eccentric (in a good way),” noted a second.
As a third claimed: “Omg so that’s where her acting skills are from hahaha.”
And a fourth added: “What’s mad is her performance in the traitors outshines this iconic one.”
