"Hello there, Tattoo. I'm sure you've been wondering as much as we have - who is this mysterious performer on The Masked Singer UK? In the first episode, Tattoo graced the stage, captivating judges Davina McCall, Jonathan Ross, Mo Gilligan, and newcomer Maya Jama. And let's not forget the stunning heart-shaped costume adorned with traditional tattoos like roses, birds, and even a 'love' banner. After their impressive debut, Tattoo kept us all guessing with a series of enigmatic clues. Some have guessed an EastEnders star, while others are convinced it's a Spice Girl. Who do you think is hiding underneath that mask? What hints can we gather about Tattoo's true identity?
One thing's for sure, Tattoo must be a fan of ink since we spotted a Robin Hood hat in their VT. And there was also a rabbit with a horseshoe and a four-leaf clover, symbolizing good luck. But don't let their appearance fool you - as Tattoo cryptically shared, "I might look all hearts and flowers, but don't be fooled." And who could miss the framed photo of Natalie Appleton next to a fishnet stocking? As Tattoo puts it, they've always followed their heart when it comes to their career. And here's a riddle for you: "If you want a tattoo, then you surely have heard, you can't beat a loved one with one special word." Any ideas who Tattoo could be? Let us know your guesses!
One theory is that Jessie Wallace, also known as Kat Slater from EastEnders, is behind the mask. This is because the VT featured two crowns - one for a King and one for a Queen. And who better to represent a Queen than Kat herself, who not only reigns on Albert Square but also in the hearts of fans. As Davina pointed out, Kat has a fiery personality and isn't afraid to speak her mind. She first appeared on EastEnders in 2000 and returned in 2010, much to everyone's delight.
Another guess is Cheryl, the pop star known for her love of tattoos. Guest judge Sir Mo Farah noted that the 'Love' written on Tattoo's costume could be a nod to Cheryl's debut solo single, Fight for This Love. This track topped the charts in 2009, launching Cheryl's solo career while she was also a judge on The X Factor. Cheryl has quite a collection of tattoos, including a rose design on her lower back, 'Mrs C' on her neck, barbed wire on her thigh, and a tribal design on her hand.
Maya Jama has her own theory, believing that Tattoo is someone from her own show, Love Island. The references to both a sweet and fiery side could be a clue for Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu, who won the show in 2022 with her on-again, off-again boyfriend Davide Sanclimenti. However, they split in June 2023, and Ekin-Su has also appeared on Dancing On Ice and Celebrity Big Brother.
Jonathan Ross had an interesting interpretation of Tattoo's riddle, suggesting it could be a reference to the Spice Girls hit, Viva Forever. And who better to represent the Spice Girls than Emma Bunton, aka Baby Spice, who also happens to be a DJ on Heart Radio. And let's not forget Tattoo's heart-shaped costume - a perfect match for Emma's own inkings on her lower back and wrist.
There you have it - some of the top predictions for who Tattoo could be. But we'll have to keep tuning in to The Masked Singer to find out the truth. Do you have any other guesses? Let us know!
