Masked Singer 2023 Thread 2: It's a game of Cat and Mouse and our guesses are all Rubbish!

[Piggywaspushed]

Thread Two for jovial discussions and guesses!

As per previous thread, and guesses or I told you sos (I am preparing myself for Rubbish demasking!!) are welcome.

Please avoid sharing any heavy hints garnered from social media. A few identities have been leaked that way , especially on the US version.

Once the show has finished airing on ITV, discussion of demasked 'celebrity' is allowed and this does not constitute a spoiler.

We all (ahem, nearly) guessed Lulu. Let's hope we have heard of the rest!!

Remember on Gogglebox he told a mortified Roman that he and Shirlie had it off all over the house

Get in line @NoisyBrain 😂😂

Roman's tweet "are you fucking kidding me"

Wow that's impressive!

You’re going to be dreaming about @NoisyBrain shagging Martin Kemp? 😬

Thanks for the company! Until next week Ladies!

They do get them right, I'm sure- it's really very heavily edited, it's all for entertainment after all . I(No -one who watched Lenny Henry didn't get Lenny Henry) Don't for one minute think that if I knew it the Kemps- Jonathan didnt.

The other year, Sophie Ellis Bextor was the first act voted off. She is very recognisable, vocals wise. On the broadcast show- the panel didn't 'recognise' her. But she said afterwards they did mention her in the studio, it just didnt make the 'cut'.

Toodle pip fellow demaskers!

See you all next week...

Thanks all

We were in the audience during covid for masked dancer. It was so easy for them to cover up guesses etc because it was done online. They brought round all the equipment, laptop etc, then when they didn't want us to hear they turned the mics off and the guy orchestrating it all just chatted to us. It's probably done very similar in the studio

@NoisyBrain sorry I'm sure you're awesome but no, weirdly you aren't in my kemp and I dreams 😂

Claire Steps is posting her guesses on Twitter. She's guessed that Knitting is Jane McDonald, but I'm assuming that is a clever bluff.

Phoenix now thinking Marti Pellow, purely down to the war of the worlds music on the intro. He was in the O2 musical concert version.

My theories this week -

100% certain that Phoenix is Ricky Wilson after the War of the Worlds theme tune

Jellyfish - Beverley Knight
Knitting - Claire Richards
Otter - I am still saying it's Kate Bush desperately trying to hide her voice and acting like you wouldn't expect her to. She's in her sixties now but did loads of contemporary dance in her younger days so I would expect her to be still quite agile.

Previous series have taught me to ignore the women's voices in the VT, Everyone sounds like a Northener regardless!

Jellyfish has bigger thighs then Beverley Knight, shes thin
and theres no way Kate Bush would do this programme, shes a very private person..
Sorry Winniewonka

Jellyfish is 100% Amber Riley - as a huge Glee fan, would recognise her voice and her hand gestures when she was singing anywhere! Not sure of the clues and how they fit other than she is known for one name which would be Glee.

Beverley knight has a really distinctive voice, it's not her

I can't seem to load the thread. MartyPellow for Phoenix- WOTW music, the football references (WWW sponsored a team), "sweet", "mystery"

Did anyone else notice the ‘director’ at the start of the Phoenix clues VT sounded a lot like Ricky Wilson? Double bluff?
art imitating life- Ricky was an art teacher
Sticks of Rock- was a Kaiser Chiefs album cover
he was in War of the Worlds on stage
I thought the reference to magic was that he was in one of the Harry Potter films?

Re Mel Giedroyc and chocolate... did she not drop a contestants' cake on bake off? I think she is Otter. Also the way she stood when they guessed her identity was pure Mel.

Knitting is 100000000% Claire

Thought it was funny that Davina kept saying she didn't think Cat and Mouse were a couple in real life, then they turn out to be a couple of 35 years 😅.

For me (and I'm not a brilliant guesser)

Phoenix - Ricky Wilson
Jellyfish - Duffy
Otter - Mel Giedroyc
Knitting - Siobhan McSweeny

I leave the thread as soon as the show finishes and this is what I miss 😂

Did you see her on that's my jam? She's brilliant. I've not seen Glee but she's super talented!
