The new series of everyone`s favourite celebrity guessing game is back and it has left fans even more confused than ever before!

Since the launch of the 2025 series viewers have seen the unveiling of Spag Bol and Pegasus, but which of the remaining 10 contestants will live to sing another day?

Toad in the hole rocks a purple suit with a black overcoat, not forgetting to mention his iconic Yorkshire pudding belt.

The gold toad sang a rendition of Amy Winehouse’s Valerie – the judges complimented her `beautiful voice`.

The judges had a theory that the celebrity behind the mask was American, as Toad in the Hole`s accent had a twang.

Amongst the undercover vocalists is the iconic Toad in the hole who baffled the judges after they all interpreted the contestant’s cryptic clues differently.

Who could Toad in the Hole on The Masked Singer be?

Judge Mo Farah guessed Toad In The Hole could be fellow Olympic gold medallist, Jessica Ennis-Hill.

The MBE has broken records across the world and is still the British record holder for the high jump, indoor pentathlon, and 100m hurdles.

He pointed out how the undercover singer hoped they `hop, skippy and jump on to stage tonight`. This got Farah`s athletic brain whirring as Ennis-Hill competes in heptathlons where she literally hops, skips, and jumps.

Ricki Lake

Judge, Davina McCall, was quick to guess that Hairspray legend, Ricki Lake, may be the talent behind the pudding.

The actress who has won a Daytime Emmy award for her talk show, The Ricki Lake Show, has been in the industry for nearly 40 years.

The performer is a triple threat and not shy of the stage so could the clue ‘I’m very versatile and I’m ready to show everyone on The Masked Singer’ link back to Ricki?

Annie Mac

Maya Jama picked up on Toad in the Hole writing in her VT and linked it back to how ex-radio 1 DJ Annie Mac has a book and podcast.

Mac was famously at Radio 1 for 17 years and since her departure in 2021 has been touring across Europe, playing her popular DJ tracks from London to Ibiza.

The Love Island host spotted The Masked Singer`s ‘deep and raspy’ voice which Annie Mac is renowned for having.

Macy Gray

Fans of the show believe they have already guessed Toad in the Hole`s identity, thinking it may be The Masked Singer veteran, Macy Gray, who would be taking off her mask for a third time after appearing on both the USA and Australian versions of the series.  

One X follower said `Macy Gray = Toad in the Hole`, another super fan said `If Toad in the Hole is not Macy Gray, then I need hearing aids.`

Line of Duty star, Vicky McClure picked up on the celebrity’s `recognisable` voice and exclaimed: `I genuinely feel I`ve got this!`

The actress pointed to the clue in the VT, `try not to croak and stumble` which is a line from the RnB singer`s most famous song, I Try.

Sounds like a safe bet to us…

The Masked Singer returns to ITV on Saturday at 7pm.
