DAVID Tennant has fuelled Masked Dancer fan theories that he’s on the show thanks to a very cryptic comment on social media.
Viewers have been certain that it’s the Doctor Who star behind the mask Onomatopoeia after a series of clues on the ITV competition.
The actor hit back at speculation as fan quizzed him over the Masked Dancer
Fans think that David could be Onomatopoeia
Fans of the programme have been reaching out to David, 51, to ask whether it’s him under the mystery mask.
Many queued up to meet the Scottish star as he headed into the theatre for his new West End stage show Good.
The fan asked David: “Was that you on the Masked Dancer last week?” to which he replied: “I don’t think I’d be allowed to tell you if it was.”
“If you saw my dancing tonight I think you’d know the answer to that question,” he added as he walked into the theatre.
It comes as fans were left convinced that Onomatopoeia is David Tennant – or fellow British actor Simon Bird.
Bright character Onomatopoeia is all about words that are associated with sounds – with a number of clues pointing to a major celeb.
Earlier this week, some superfans claimed that EIGHTEEN clues have “confirmed” that Onomatopoeia is a huge US movie star.
Viewers of the ITV competition – which sees masked celebs dance anonymously – are certain it’s an actor from 00s hit Coyote Ugly.
Many more fans are convinced that Adam, 49, thanks to the comprehensive list of clues linking to his TV and film career.
“Onomatopoeia is Adam Garcia,” the Reddit user wrote. “Firstly, Onomatopoeia rhymes with Adam Garcia.”
“Start your day right, ‘Boiled Egg and Soldiers’ was an early morning show Adam presented back in 1996,” they continued.
“Two lies, one truth, ‘trained with superheroes’, he went to Knox Grammar in New South Wales and other alumni include Hugo Weaving and Hugh Jackman.”
Noting his tap dancing career, the fan added: “Bringing the noise – tap dance makes a lot of noise. ‘The sound of the crowd’, audiences as he’s first and foremost a dancer and live performer.”
They linked the science related clues in Onomatopoeia’s video take to Adam’s science degree, as well as a TV show he starred in: Einstein.
And while a red and white scarf is said to point towards him being “an Arsenal football fan”, Columbian coffee beans points towards his heritage thanks to his Columbian family.
“The car with the male symbol, is Riding in a car with Boys, a movie he did with Drew Barrymore, and the missing donkey, he was in Nativity 3 – Dude, Where’s my Donkey?” the Redditor added.
“Flashdance moves were similar to his moves in Coyote Ugly, plus he’s a judge on dance competitions.
“Saying ‘swankified’ is a clear clue to the musical Wicked, and he originated the role of Fiyero on the West End.
“Horror: he was in The Exorcist in London, and Sci-Fi: Doctor Who. The Library: he was in an episode of Marple called The Body in the Library.
“Triple threat, he’s an actor singer and dancer, and ‘My body has been considered an anatomically perfect specimen’, I found an interview: ‘I had a thin muscular body so when mum lectured, she would take me along as a anatomical model.”
He told waiting fans he “couldn’t tell them”
