The Masked Singer: TikToker who guessed nearly every 2021 contestant correctly shares his predictions

A TikToker who guessed almost all of The Masked Singer 2021's contestants correctly has revealed who he thinks is behind each mask in this year's series.

Matthew Seaman, who has garnered a following of nearly 25,000 people and a whopping 1.4million likes during his time on the video-sharing platform, correctly guessed all of last year's contestants, bar one.

He also spent a lot of time convincing fellow fans of the show that Joss Stone was Sausage when many believed it was Sheridan Smith, as he picked apart the tiniest details.

And now, he has shared his guesses on who he thinks is starring in the third series of the UK edition of the show.

On January 1, the day Episode One aired, Matthew uploaded a TikTok titled: 'Who I think the masked singers are so far'.

In the video, he put forward the following guesses:

  • Mushroom - Aisling Bea or Kym Marsh
  • Robobunny - Mark Feehily
  • Doughnuts - Michael Owen
  • Lionfish - Eddie Izzard or Will Young
  • Firework - 'No clue but gonna go with the crowd and say Michelle Keegan'
Matt thought Poodle could have been Gary Barlow, John Barrowman or Paul O'Grady at first, but is now convinced the canine character is Tom Chaplin from Keane (@1matts on TikTok)

When the second episode was aired and viewers were introduced to the rest of the contestants, he posted his guesses as to who they were in another TikTok. They included:

  • Rockhopper - Ashley Roberts
  • Traffic Cone - Stephen Mulhern, Alexander Armstrong, Mark Wright, or Jimmy Bullard
  • Poodle - Paul O'Grady or John Barrowman
  • Panda - Michaela Strachan
  • Bagpipes - John McEnroe

He concluded it by saying: "Gloria Hunniford was easy though! Who else got her?"

But Matt has changed his mind since, and now believes that Keane frontman Tom Chaplin is Poodle. He said: "At the beginning of the VT it said 'Take H&F', so I had a look at Keane's album list - Hopes and Fears."

Matt also cited the line of collars that could be seen in the video tape prior to Poodle's performance, each of which had the name of a Queen on them. After the collars were shown, Poodle said: "It's something I've always admired".

The TikToker claims that this is further evidence that the colourful canine is Chaplin, as the musician has always openly admired Queen, and has even performed with Brian May in the past.

Matt added: "And as for the four dog collars together, I thought maybe that could represent the four band members of Keane."

Furthermore, Poodle says in their video tape: "I'm very eager to start."

Matt said: "What's another word for eager... keen."
