However, fans have noted Dressed Crab has a powerful, soulful voice, appearing to have singing experience and said they couldn't possibly be Drag Race star Ru.

Taking to X, another fan rubbished the idea of Dressed Crab being Ru Paul, saying: "WHY are people saying dressed crab is Ru Paul? Have you never heard him sing!"

Another said: "People who think dressed crab is ru Paul like tell me you haven’t actually listened to any of the songs without telling me."

As the beloved ITV guessing game continues, Dressed Crab has had fans scratching their head as they attempt to figure out their identity.

The crooner may have already been cracked by panelist Mo Gilligan who named them as another huge star.

He floated Seal, known for his sultry hits including smash Kiss From A Rose.
