The Masked Singer is back for another season.
Yep, that means it’s time to put your thinking cap on and wade through Network Ten’s cryptic clues and start guessing which celebrities are behind the elaborate costumes – and the task is tougher than you may think!
WATCH: The Masked Singer 2020: Who is Puppet?
A motley crew of 12 celebrities will battle it out on stage to be crowned the winner of The Masked Singer Australia for 2020 – a feat Cody Simpson managed to achieve last year during its inaugural season.
So far only The Echidna has been unmasked – and tennis star Mark Philippoussis was the shock reveal!
Left to battle it out are Dragonfly, Frillneck, Echidna, Hammerhead, Wizard, Cactus, Queen, Goldfish, Sloth, Bushranger, Puppet and Kitten.
Who is Puppet?
The first clue dropped about Puppet was “I’ve had my brush with royalty and a long time in a court of law”.
And after Monday night’s performance of Elvis Presley’s hit Burning Love, we know the identity behind the mask is male.
Among the other cryptic clues were that Puppet “loved to entertain” and “no one was pulling his strings”.
An additional clue read: “Puppets don’t age human years but the events of 1964 impacted my career.”
Many fans were convinced they knew who was behind the mask, with comedian Shaun Micallef and former Australian Idol judge Mark Holden being two of the most popular guesses thanks to their respective law backgrounds.
Others pointed the finger at Anh Do, who fronts Anh’s Brush With Fame on the ABC and previously studied business law.
Could these guesses be right on the money?
Who are The Masked Singer judges?
Thanks to travel restrictions put in place due to the COVID-19 global crisis, international judge Lindsay Lohan was unable to return for the second season and was instead replaced by comedian Urzila Carlson. All other judges, Jackie O Henderson, Dave Hughes and Dannii Minogue returned to the panel.
Who hosts The Masked Singer Australia?
There’s no rest for poor Osher Gunsberg at Network Ten! Fresh from his stint hosting Bachelor in Paradise, the talented TV personality is back fronting The Masked Singer Australia two nights a week. And if you didn’t think he was busy enough – never fear, he’s hosting The Bachelor Australia two of the other nights of the week.
When does The Masked Singer air?
The Masked Singer kicks off 7.30pm, Monday, August 10 on Network Ten.
