THE Masked Singer fans are convinced they’ve worked out the identity of Dressed Crab and they say they are a HUGE music star.
The wacky ITV show is back for a fifth series, and viewers are once again enjoying the ultimate guessing game.
Internet-sleuths are now convinced they know who The Masked Singer‘s Dressed Crab is.
The character has proved popular on the show, and now couch-detectives are trying to work out who is behind the mask.
And there is one name that keeps popping up in fan theory forums.
Viewers are convinced that Dressed Crab is singing sensation Gregory Porter.
The Grammy Award winner’s name has lit up message boards as fans discuss who the character could be.
One fan posted: “It’s obviously Gregory Porter, but he won’t be eliminated for a while.”
While another commented: “Seems like it’s definitely Gregory Porter.
“I believe he played American football at university too, which would tie in with the football helmet clue.”
This one said: “Not because of the clues (and to be honest I only half listen to them) but I instantly thought it was Gregory Porter.”
Another agreed: “Definitely Gregory Porter!”

On Saturday, judges Davina McCall, Mo Gilligan, Maya Jama and Jonathan Ross were joined by Line of Duty star Vicky McClure to try and guess a group of new masked up stars.
Writing on X, one viewer wrote: “Wooh! I guessed Prue Leith!”
Another shared: “Guessed correctly that Pegasus was Prue Leith!!”
“Amazing Prue is doing this at 84 yrs old, you go girl,” said a third.
Others claimed it was easy to guess after Pegasus spoke in the VT and to the judges, as her South African accent made her recognisable.
One viewer pointed out: “Prue didn’t even hide her speaking voice in the VT.”
Another viewer thought the same: “I love how I didn’t know it was Prue Leith from her singing but the second she spoke it was so obviously her.”
Prue’s unmasking comes after TV presenter Kate Garraway was revealed to be Spag Bol.
Speaking on the show, the GMB host said: “I can’t sing and I kept telling [the producers] that but they said it doesn’t matter.”
[boxout headline=”Who won The Masked Singer 2025?” featured-image=”32646117″ intro=”Much to the delight of telly fans, The Masked Singer came back in 2025.”]Twelve celebrities were hidden behind intricate costumes, with their identities concealed.
Pufferfish – This year’s winner had flawless vocals throughout the competition. West End powerhouse Samantha Barks told the audience she’d loved every second of the series.
Dressed Crab – Former American football player turned jazz singer Gregory Porter was the man behind the crustacean. He duetted with Keala Settle, who previously competed as Air Fryer, in the final.
Wolf – Wet Wet Wet heartthrob Marti Pellow was unmasked as the rugged character. McFly’s Danny Jones, who won last year’s show as Piranha, was on the panel in the final and paid his respects to the Scottish crooner.
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.
