The highly anticipated return of everyone's favorite celebrity guessing game, The Masked Singer, has left fans more confused than ever before. With the unveiling of Spag Bol and Pegasus in the 2025 series, viewers are eagerly waiting to see which of the remaining 10 contestants will continue on in the competition.
One of the most talked-about contestants is Toad in the Hole, who sports a stylish purple suit with a black overcoat and a Yorkshire pudding belt. The golden toad impressed the judges with a beautiful rendition of Amy Winehouse's "Valerie", causing them to speculate that the celebrity behind the mask might be American due to the twang in Toad in the Hole's accent.
But who could be hiding behind the mysterious mask of Toad in the Hole? The judges are just as baffled as the rest of us, with each of them interpreting the contestant's cryptic clues differently. Some of these clues include "plenty of me to go around", "I'm very versatile and ready to show everyone on The Masked Singer", and a reference to sizzling in the kitchen, possibly alluding to BBQ. Toad in the Hole also mentioned wanting to write their own destiny and not wanting to stumble on the words during their performance. And then there's the riddle: "Sometimes there are masses of people to feed, so I get extra help, my priority is speed."
One guess from fellow Olympian Mo Farah was Jessica Ennis-Hill, a British record holder in high jump, indoor pentathlon, and 100m hurdles. Farah pointed out how the undercover singer mentioned hopping, skipping, and jumping onto the stage, which got his athletic brain whirring as Ennis-Hill competes in heptathlons where she literally does just that.
Another guess from judge Davina McCall was Ricki Lake, the actress and talk show host who has been in the industry for nearly 40 years and won a Daytime Emmy award. The clue "I'm very versatile and ready to show everyone on The Masked Singer" could potentially link back to Ricki's triple threat talent and comfort on the stage.
Maya Jama, host of Love Island, picked up on Toad in the Hole's writing in their VT and connected it to ex-Radio 1 DJ Annie Mac, who has a book and podcast. Mac, who was at Radio 1 for 17 years before her departure in 2021, has been touring across Europe, playing her popular DJ tracks from London to Ibiza. Jama also noted the contestant's "deep and raspy" voice, a trademark of Annie Mac's.
But could it be Macy Gray behind the mask? Judge Vicky McClure thought so, as did many fans who believe they have already cracked the mystery. The RnB singer has appeared on both the USA and Australian versions of The Masked Singer and is known for her recognizable voice. One fan even said they would need hearing aids if Toad in the Hole turned out not to be Macy Gray. McClure pointed to the clue "try not to croak and stumble" from the VT, a line from Gray's hit song "I Try".
With all these guesses, it's anyone's game at this point. The Masked Singer returns to ITV this Saturday at 7pm, and fans are eagerly waiting to see if their speculations were correct.
