Maked singer thread 3

[Caaarrrl]

Hi folks. New thread for next week.

OK I'm going crazy about badger! I need to know who it is 😫😫

@mooncheese.
My Dd used to love Pewdiepie.

@JaneJeffer

The clues are maddening!

I thought Badger might be Max Bowden but then he said nobody would recognise him walking down the street.

Ironically I don't know who that is

Alan Carr is guest judging next week so be interesting to see if he gets some of the more obvious ones (specially Blob) as it appeared in the last series the main panel steered away guessing a lot of obvious ones (presumably told to by producers so the viewers keep guessing) But the guest judges just came out and got some of them. Sharon Osborne stated without a doubt that Unicorn was Jake Shears and he was voted off that week, as any mystery was gone (I was gutted as I loved Unicorn and his little trotty hooves 😁 I did know it was Jake though!)

It's Ne-Yo 😆

@LadyGAgain the current Ben Mitchell from Eastenders. He's a good singer.

My additional super sleuthing about badger/Ne-Yo - he refers to lots of little badgers....he is heavily involved with a US charity who

Little Kids Rock (LKR) is a charity in the United States that encourages and enables children to play popular music

Pootle41 would he have been over here though that is the part I dont get. Was he in London because if he wasnt and he was in the US surely he would have done the US version (where he has been a guess once or twice so well known enough to make it).

If he was stuck in London at that time for any reason I am on board!

@Quartz2208 yeah it was filmed in September and he was here. The photo of him and his wife in London at the time has since been taken down (by him I assume!) who knows why this version and not US....maybe because he thought he had a better chance of winning; maybe wanted an excuse for sight seeing during a pandemic. Who knows. If that's not him singing I'll literally eat my own arm.

If he was here then totally on board as I am sure Davinia hinted there was at least one American in it and so far all UK.

Possibly here for other reasons and did as a side gig. Also one would assume doing the UK version wouldn’t stop you doing the US version later

I'd read somewhere there was a photo on instagram of NeYo in London at the time the series was being filmed but it has since been deleted.

I wonder if it is being set up for Alan Carr to declare Blob is Lenny Henry and JR and DM to think 'of course' and be embarrassed that they didn't recognise their friend even though I'm sure they actually did

As far as I can tell, ne-yo sounds nothing like badger though 🤷‍♀️

It's be great if Ne-Yo was Badger, I used to love 'Closer' back in the day but I'm just not sure it sounds like him...

Ah thanks for telling me. I'm wondering if badger is Ore or Bryan McFadden...

@Ewanthescreamsheep

Singing or speaking? Singing exactly like him. Speaking I agree but sounds very fake - like dick van dyke in Mary poppins lol

John Thomson said Blob was Lenny Henry on Granada Reports.

Damn I wish he had revealed who Badger or Harlequin was instead!

@GrimDamnFanjo

John Thomson said Blob was Lenny Henry on Granada Reports.

A bit of a non-reveal, that one!

And also a breach of contract presumably

And also a breach of contract presumably

He'll have been guessing - the celebs don't know who each other are, they're all kept completely separate.

Having read it he is just giving his guesses about people he won’t have any more clue than us it’s that secretive

He also supports badger being NeYo

OK major brainwave. Has anyone considered Penn Badgley for Badger???

• He starred in "You" (which would work with "Because of You")

• He's in a band and it sounds like it could be his voice from the videos I just watched on Youtube, but I'm not certain.

• His surname is Badgley - like Badger!

Oh wow, that would be amazing.
