THE Masked Singer fans have ‘worked out’ Pufferfish’s identity as a HUGE US Netflix star – after spotting THREE clues.
Viewers have used key hints on the ITV show in a bid to pinpoint who Pufferfish actually is.
They now reckon actress Jenna Ortega could be secretly performing under the aquatic mask.
Writing online, a viewer theorised: “idk if i’m stupid for thinking pufferfish is jenna ortega or whoever she is, the saw clue i’m pretty sure she was in saw, “runs in the family” Wednesday adams from the adams family and the 3 ???s could be beetle juice.”
Another agreed, as they wrote: “I’ve been thinking Jenna Ortega since the wee spider on the brush gave me Wednesday vibes, & the blood & slasher clues would point to Scream.”
Jenna, 22, is best known for playing the title role in Netflix‘s Wednesday, based on The Addams Family.
She plays the iconic Wednesday Addams in the horror-comedy series, which debuted in 2022.
Elsewhere, Jenna appeared in the three most recent Scream movies and starred in last year’s Beetlejuice sequel.
Pufferfish performed Chappell Roan’s “Good Luck Babe” for the first performance.
In the next episode, they sang “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun” by Cyndi Lauper.
Meanwhile, viewers are also certain they’ve “cracked” the identity of fellow competitor Bear.
The anonymous celebrity sang a musical number from Oliver! on their first performance.

[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.
Another posted: “Im here for the Richard Blackwood. Didn’t he release a song that could have gone to number 1?”
“I think Richard Blackwood for Bear,” said a third.
Thus far, Macy Gray, Kate Garraway and Prue Leith have all been unveiled in the current series.
The Masked Singer airs on ITV1 and ITVX.
