The Masked Singer kicked off tonight with a whole bunch of new celebrities competing for the crown.

Davina McCall, Jonathan Ross, Mo Gilligan, and Rita Ora returned to the judging panel and were on hand to throw their guesses into the ring, while Joel Dommett was back hosting.

Lionfish was among one of the six contestants to take to the stage on Saturday night and followed the likes of Doughnuts, Chandelier, Robobunny, and Mushroom.

They performed a rendition of Nessun Dorma by Giacomo Puccini in Italian and left the panel seriously impressed.

But who on earth is behind the mask?

What clues has Lionfish given about who they really are?

The judges have guessed Lionfish might be Lin-Manuel Miranda, Heather Small, Ellen DeGeneres, or Jack Dee.

Are they right? Only time will tell…

Masked Singer continues on Sunday at 7pm on ITV.
