Who is in the final of The Masked Singer UK 2024?
AFTER weeks of fan theories and guesses, The Masked Singer viewers are FINALLY going to get to see who is underneath the remaining masks.
There are just three characters left, all hoping to be crowned the next champion of the wacky ITV series.
Who is in the final of the Masked Singer 2024?
Bigfoot
Making his way into The Masked Singer final is Bigfoot.
With his furry costume and adorable face, this yeti has become a firm fan favourite on the show.
The biggest fan theory is that Bigfoot is TV star Alex Brooker.
The character has always taken to the stage with their foot in a cast, which viewers thinking this a reference to his TV show The Last Leg – and the fact he wears a prosthetic leg.
Alex also famously signed up to play rugby for the Leeds Rhinos Foundation PDRL team – which could be why Big Foot dropped a hint about rhinos.
One fan wrote: “Even the laugh at the end! Totally Alex Brooker!”
Other viewer guesses for the furry character have included former Friends icon Matt LeBlanc, Hamza Yassin, Scott Mills, Bill Oddie and even Bear Grylls.
Cricket
Cricket will also get to show off his singing voice again in The Masked Singer’s grand final.
Over the weeks, theories about who the cute green character could be have flooded social media.
Most fans are convinced that the show-stopping sensation is in fact former child-star turned TV presenter, Reggie Yates.
Sharing their theory with other The Masked Singer fans, one viewer wrote: ‘’I think it’s Reggie Yates they mentioned a mouse…he voiced Rastamouse.”
However, other viewers’ think Cricket could be boxer Anthony Joshua.
One fan tweeted: ‘’Anthony Joshua who loves cricket; his management team have ventured into professional cycling; he’s pals with Dizzee Rascal; he’s 6’5 and he can sing!”
Other names that have been thrown into the mix are Simon Webbe and Lemar.
Another fan theory is that Duncan James is Cricket.
Piranha
Piranha has certainly made a splash The Masked Singer, and has really got fans guessing.
Hailed by the judges as one of the “best singers of the series”, this killer fish as become a viewer favourite on the show.
His fishy tale has got everyone guessing, with fans convinced they know who is underneath the elaborate costume.
After the semi-final of The Masked Singer, fans revealed a brand new theory about who they think the funny fish is.
The latest guess was that Coronation Street star Shayne Ward is underneath the blue costume.
As well as being an actor, the talented star is also a singer, and actually won The X Factor in 2005.
Piranha has delivered some great performances since making his debut in week two, when he belted out a stunning rendition of Celine Dion‘s It’s All Coming Back To Me Now.
Since then he has lent his voice to songs by the likes of Bruno Mars, Michael Bolton and Kelly Clarkson.
Before Shayne was thrown into the hat, most of viewers thought Piranha is Danny Jones from McFly.
They said he was “rumbled” thanks to clues about his wife being a former Miss England winner (the map without England on it), McFly’s album Motion in the Ocean, and him singing a Michael Bolton song in reference to Danny being from Bolton.
The band have also both played the Royal Albert Hall and won a Brit Award, which were also clues.
