The Masked Singer : Will Tree shed his leaves for us tonight? Are we barking up the wrong tree?

[Piggywaspushed]

Emergency new thread!

It does fit ceelo green he is a grandfather.

I agree though everyone else is one maybe to octopus I don't think I'd be surprised if anyone came out of that costume 😂

Saturday’s episode has played havoc with my theories – to the point I thought they were messing with us and swapping the celebs inside the costumes.

Daisy – I had been sure from the start was Kelis but as soon as Davina suggested Neneh Cherry, I though that was a much more plausible suggestion, fitting all the clues. Then of course I was proven wrong.
Unicorn – I was convinced in was Jake Shears but the clues on Saturday really do point to Chris Colfer. The private jet/island thing doesn’t fit but neither does the fantasy writing thing fit for Jake. The song clue (Sharp Dressed Man) works for Jake though.
Hedgehog – after the first week I knew it was Jason Manford, then I did a u-turn and thought it was definitely Michael Ball. After Saturday’s clues I’m back to Manford again. It has to be him.
Octopus – absolutely no clue. Katherine Jenkins is my closest guess and fits some clues but I don’t really get the Jason Donovan think, the fashion, cosmetics or cruise ship clues. Diamonds are Forever could be a clue to her being Welsh though.
Monster – it seems so obviously Cee-Lo Green that I just keep thinking it can’t be and there must be a surprise in store.

Duck – Does really sound like Skin (although DH disagrees, even after I’ve played clips of both back-to-back) but I just can’t see her doing this, and Saturday’s clues didn’t seem to fit… until she sang Stormzy. I do wonder if any of the panel will have a clue who she is though.
Queen Bee – Was convinced it was Nicola Roberts but the clues suggested one of Little Mix so now I’m confused.
Fox – Convinced from week one that this was Denise Van Outen but Saturday’s clues didn’t really add up. I thought she was alluding to being in a band but then going solo.

Octopus I though Jane McDonald. Having now seen more clues I'm wondering if it's Marina Diamandis.

Hedgehog is Michael Sheen. His accent is exactly the same, and his big break came in a production of Look Back in Anger.

Nicola Roberts has written songs for Little Mix, not Wings, but a hint to Little Mix and in keeping with the Queen Bee character.

Re Jake Shears : the Glee clues do fit. And the writing thing was about hearing SJ say his words. She read his lyrics in an episode of Glee. The fantasy writing was people on this thread wasn't it? I am not sure he said that?

DVO was in a girl group of little note!

If Jane McDonald is anyone on this I will eat my own head!!

I will go away and look some stuff up about Michael Sheen but I think he is waaaay too successful!

I agree Michael Sheen is too successful and I too will eat my own head if it’s Jane McDonald

Who is Marina Diamandis??

Could the octopus be Lesley Garrett. Its the sort of thing I could imagine her doing and she's an opera singer. Don't know how the clues fit to her though

It is but the speaking voice is all wrong.

Just read that a second series has been commissioned!!

I think this series has tsken off more than expected snd I expect bigger names next time round

Michael Sheen? OMG.

Marina or Marina and The Diamonds. She auditioned for various London musicals, has supported Katy Perry on tour. Has a sea-related name and is an Octopus. She's also Welsh.

OK. I think there is a happy medium between 'wow, they are waaaay too famous' and 'who??', though! Happy to be corrected !

I think we are probably overlooking some clues buried in the words. For example, in Hedgehog's , he said 'Who do you think you are?' which is a pretty obvious nod towards the telly programme but easy to miss. Davina picked up on the way he said 'are' like 'aria' but they , therefore, didn't focus on the clue to the TV prog , which Michael Ball has done. Not sure about Manford? That's where he also said 'tenner' as in 'tenor'. Hedgehog is dropping the most clues.

I did ponder for while whether he was Billy Idol , given he had a pic of Billy Connolly whilst using the word Idol... not sure any other clues quite match up though

Have had a listen again and think Octopus is Kerry Ellis - she's worked at the seaside and on a cruise ship, done lots of West End work and sung on Broadway and appeared in War of the Worlds with Jason Donovan. My work here is done.

haven't we established Octopus is from Yorkshire - or in/has been in Emmerdale?

Aren't some of the clues false?

Don't believe so : only in the two lies and a truth bit. Otherwise they are definitely clues : so 'Dales' was clearly said and there have been two refs to 'I'm A Celebrity' for Octopus. I thinks he is also the one who said Apprentice.

The clues in the videos are all true, but after the performer has sung on the show they give another three clues and two of those can be false. So yes, some of them are not true.

Kerry Ellis has understudied lead roles and got her West End big break when both Martine McCutcheon and her understudy were unable to perform in My Fair Lady. She went in stage with something like three hours prep time.

Don’t Look back in Anger = Oasis so it must be Liam Gallagher. He needs a job.

They didn't do that this week chic

I don't think any of the clues are false apart from the 1 truth and 2 lies.

We think octopus has been in emmerdale because she said something like I wear wellies form London to the dales but it could be a clue to Yorkshire in general or even that her husband's name is dale (that's a stretch but you see my point). The I'm a celeb seems more of a solid clue with the jungle and the fish guts but they could have done Bear Grylls the island and gutted a fish clues would still fit so I don't think you can say with any of the clues they definitely mean on thing or another till you know the person and can relate them back.

It's what's really clever about the show the clues are designed to fit 2-3 people pretty well.

But they do have to fit all the clues in some way so an emmerdale actress that's been in The jungle but has no links to the apprentice or a 1 million pound deal is not going to be the person same goes for someone who has no links to Yorkshire/ the dales at least that's what I think from what we have seen So far.

I will see if I can find somewhere with all the clues including last weeks.

Natalie Anderson (played Alicia in Emmerdale) is a good singer. She won " Your face sounds familiar" (or something like that, an ITV singing contest several years ago) and has been in Wicked. She might feasibly be Octopus.

When they showed the jungle images for octopus it sound like the played a bit of the I'm a celeb music, but I could be imagining it!
