This year’s lineup of masked celebrities has set tongues wagging, with viewers particularly curious about the identity of one contestant – Air Fryer.
In this unique musical extravaganza, celebrities face off in a battle of vocal prowess while their identities remain shrouded in mystery, concealed by spectacular costumes and masks.
One of this year’s contestants is a giant kitchen contraption, complete with a light up face.
And after just one performance, fans think they know who is exactly behind the mask, speculating it could be The Greatest Showman star Keala Settle.
In their first episode, Air Fryer performed Kings & Queens by Ava Max.
Clues included a pair of scissors, possibly a hint to her role as bearded lady Lettie Lutz in the musical film.
Other clues in the first episode were links to baking, a potential reference to Keala’s role in Waitress The Musical.
On X, one viewer declared: “AIR FRYER IS KEALA SETTLE #MaskedSingerUK”
Another added: “added this is me to the air fryer playlist because dear god keala settle better be her”
Whether or not those hunches are correctly remains to be seen.
