‘I’ll eat my own arm if it’s not him’ say Masked Singer fans as they ‘confirm’ noughties pop legend is behind Cricket

THE Masked Singer fans think they've "worked out" who Cricket is after just three episodes.

Strictly Come Dancing star Shirley Ballas was the latest celeb to be unmasked in the hit ITV competition.

Now fans of the singing show are convinced that the green insect is none other than noughties pop legend Simon Webbe after hearing Cricket's singing voice.

In one clue, Cricket was observed standing on a cricket pitch, surrounded by numbers, including 'total 60'.

This sparked speculation among some fans, linking it to the star's appearance on Strictly, similar to Simon.

The name Simon Webb also serves as a clue, as it belongs to an English cricketer.

The Masked Singer UK shared a clip of Cricket's live performance, prompting viewers to share their opinions in the comments section.

One fan wrote: "Simon Webbe… I’ll eat my own arm if it’s not!"

Another added: "Simon Webbe."

A third penned: "Simon Webbe or Lemar."

A fourth wrote: "This is Simon Webbe 1000000%."

A fifth commented: "100% Simon Webbe," to which another fan replied: "I think its him too, sounds exactly like him."

Cricket revealed his riddle as he said "I hope my performance was bowling you over, like when I got dizzy while perched on a sofa".

This left the panel confused as Jonathan Ross subsequently changed his pick to comedian Vic Reeves.

One user previously wrote on X/Twitter: "I'm not sure on the clues yet either but I compared the voices of Cricket's first performance and one of Simon's solo songs and they sound similar. His voice definitely reminds me of his high notes on All Rise."
