THE MASKED Singer fans think they've ‘worked out’ who Pufferfish is - and it’s a HUGE 90s pop icon.
Viewers of the hit ITV show have been busy speculating online, with many convinced Shania Twain, 59, is the mystery celeb hiding behind the elaborate costume.
Taking to X, formerly Twitter, one declared: "Shania Twain #Pufferfish #TheMaskedSinger"
Another simply wrote: "#TheMaskedSinger #Pufferfish SHANIA TWAIN."
And a third asked: "#TheMaskedSinger ? Shania Twain?"
Fans previously claimed Pufferfish is Hannah Waddingham.
Taking to social media, one shared last week: "Could Pufferfish be Hannah Waddington? A lot of clues fit."
Another added: "Puffer fish is hannah waddingham."
Hayden Panettiere's name has been thrown into the mix too.
One fan referred to her role in TV series Nashville, writing: "Could be Hayden Panettiere does a sound a little like her when you think back to her Nashville performances."
Another agreed with Davina McCall, who suggested the Heroes actress, claiming: "Now could pufferfish be
@haydenpanettier."
A third insisted: "Pufferfish is Hayden Panettiere," while a fourth put: "I don't know for #PufferFish… Jamie Lynn Spears was first thought but can she sing that good? POSSIBLY Hayden Paniettere."
Another confessed: "If Pufferfish is Hayden Panettiere I’m going to flip this table," as one was adamant: "Pufferfish is Hayden from Heroes…"
Previous clues have hinted at a Stateside star, after Pufferfish referred to the Statue of Liberty and American football.
Other hints include a rubber spider resting on a hairbrush, a pair of dice rolling a five and six, and a moment where they were seen crushing a rubber chicken with a blue boot.
The Masked Singer's finale is only a matter of days away, with just three stars left in the running to be crowned this year's winner.
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:
Bush - she didn't fool viewers and the judges were so close, but Bush was in fact EastEnders legend Natalie Cassidy. Davina McCall came closest, guessing Morgana Robinson, who does a mean impression of the Sonia actress
Bear - another success for new judge Maya Jama as she guessed correctly that the singing Bear was none other than singer, songwriter Example - real name Elliot Gleave
Snail - this singer certainly fooled the judges as the mask was lifted to reveal Andrea Corr. Jonathan Ross admitted to being a huge fan of The Corrs
Kingfisher - everyone was convinced this was Harry Hill, but the mask was lifted to reveal artist Sir Grayson Perry, who is known for his alter-ego Claire
Teeth - this character baffled judges and viewers with their changing voice. They were finally unmasked as former Bake Off host Mel Giedroyc. None of the panel managed to guess it was her
Tattoo - despite Davina McCall saying "you sound the same" after this character was unmasked, none of the judges guessed it was 80s singer Carol Decker, whose hit China In Your Hand was a No1 hit for five weeks
Toad In The Hole - a massive diva strop saw the character storm off the stage after the judges voted them off. They later returned to be unmasked as singer Macy Gray
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.
