THE Masked Singer fans are convinced they have worked out that Tattoo is a HUGE noughties 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 Tattoo is.
In fact, one eagle-eyed fan thinks they have guessed that the celeb behind the elaborate costume is in fact noughties legend Nelly Furtado.
The couch-detective listed SIX clues that would suggest that the iconic pop star is in fact Tattoo:
Taking to Reddit the super-fan said: “I think the framed photo of Natalie Appleton isn’t a reference to a girlband, but actually is a clue to Tattoo being Canadian.
“The horseshoe, rabbits foot and four-leaf clover all symbolise luck. Nelly‘s newest album is called ‘7’ which also represents luck
“The Robin Hood hat could be a clue to her second album being called Folklore.
“If we want to really stretch, as a teenager she worked in the Robin Hood Inn.
“I think there are references to the titles of songs on her newest album (I don’t know when this was filmed, so maybe it doesn’t work if it was filmed before the album was released).
“One of the songs on her newest album is called Crown , and another one is called Corazón, the Spanish word for heart , which was referenced multiple times in the clue package.
Going on, the Reddit user said: “Five weeks is 35 days, and Nelly Furtado has released 35 singles.

Nelly rose to fame in 2000 thanks to tracks like I’m Like A Bird and Turn Off The Light.
She also had massive success in 2006 with the release of her chart-topping album Loose, which sold more than 12million copies worldwide.
The record spawned four massive hit singles including Promiscuous, Maneater, Say It Right and All Good Things (Come to an End).
Meanwhile, last weekend the second Masked Singer contestant to be unmasked was Pegasus and was revealed to be Prue Leith.
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.

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.
