What are the clues?

To help the star-studded judging panel and fans of the show, each character shares a set of clues.

Dressed Crab's hints so far include:

  • An American football helmet
  • A non-disclosure agreement
  • Gold coins
  • Film roll
  • Dressed crab is a look that never goes out of fashion.
  • Just marvel at some of my creations, my work has lit up the UK
  • I've scuttled all over the planet

They also shared the riddle: ''I don’t want to be beaten, there’s too much at stake, I’ve a taste for the high life, my rivals should quake.''

Who do the judges think Dressed Crab could be?

This year, it is the job of judges Davina McCall, Jonathan Ross, Mo Gilligan and Maya Jama to figure out who is hiding behind the mask based on their voice and the clues shared during each show.

Jonathan plumped for Jamie Foxx, while new judge Maya chose Billy Porter.

Mo went for a different Porter - Gregory - while guest judge Sir Mo Farah selected diving superstar Tom Daley.

Davina was convinced it was singer The Weeknd.

Who do The Masked Singer fans think Dressed Crab is?

With the 2025 season in full swing, The Masked Singer fans have put their detective skills to the test in a bid to unmask Dressed Crab.

Taking to X to share their theories, one fan wrote: ''Such a soulful performance from Dressed Crab - I hear Gregory Porter!

''He played American football at university. He's 'never out of fashion' - has a song called 'In Fashion'. I'm with Mo - Gregory Porter!''

And a second viewer added: ''Crab sounds so much like Gregory Porter.''

Others backed Maya, agreeing it was Billie Porter.

Who has left The Masked Singer 2025 so far?

Much to the delight of telly fans, The Masked Singer is back in 2025.

Twelve celebrities have been hidden behind intricate costumes, with their identities concealed.

Sadly, not all of this year's whacky and wonderful characters can make it to the end of the show, as there can only be one winner.

Here's who has been unmasked so far:

Pegasus - the mythical horse was revealed to be Prue Leith, with judge Jonathan Ross correctly guessing her identity

Spag Bol - this character was first to be unmasked and was none other than Good Morning Britain host Kate Garraway.

Plus there was one extra unmasking this season, with Giant Joel - a caricature of host Joel Dommett - unveiled as double-double Olympic champion Sir Mo Farah.
