THE Masked Singer is back, meaning that viewers are guessing who could be behind all the masks.
While the identity of the Badger remains a secret, many have a hunch it’s Ne-Yo.
Is Ne-Yo the Badger on The Masked Singer UK?
It’s not been confirmed who is behind the Badger mask on The Masked Singer.
However, that hasn’t stopped viewers from guessing who it could be, with Ne-Yo currently the trending guess.
As the competition continues the Badger’s identity will be revealed.
Why do fans think Ne-Yo is the Badger?
Twitter is flooded with viewers confidently guessing that Badger is Ne-Yo, with one writing: “willing to bet my life that Badger is 100% Ne-Yo”.
The first clue is the singers vocals, which fans say sound clearly like Ne-Yo’s recognisable voice.
Next it was discovered that Ne-Yo was in the UK in September, which is when filming took place.
He had also shared photos on social media in September that look like they were taken in London.
Lastly, Badger had a motorbike on stage during his performance – something that Ne-Yo rides in the music video for his song Closer.
Meanwhile judges Davina McCall, Rita Ora, Jonathan Ross and Mo Gilligan didn’t guess Ne-Yo, instead thinking it could be David Myers, Andy Serkis, Idris Elba, or Jay Kay.
What did the Badger sing on The Masked Singer?
Badger sang Nina Simone’s powerhouse song, Feeling Good.
His distinctive vocals shown in the song have fans convinced it’s Ne-Yo behind the mask.
Who was Sophie Ellis-Bextor on The Masked Singer?
Sophie Ellis-Bextor was unmasked in The Masked Singer.
She was the Alien and revealed that judges instantly guessed it was her due to her distinctive voice.
Those guesses were cut from the show that aired.
She had adopted a fake accent to try to throw people off the scent, but to no avail.
