The rabbit is Fatone. The sign said Brooklyn. He was born there.

Kinda hate that I’ve gotten sucked into this show. I know all these B-list celebrities, but I can’t identify their voices nor do I know all their trivia. There isn’t even that much music on the show. So I’m basically watching to see if the judges are guessing correctly.

Re: The Masked Singer (FOX) -- celebrity singing game show

I don't really know Fatone, I know the name but I can't tell one boy band from another. But I think Rabbit is my favorite so far. If it is him, it's going to be hysterical because Jenny said something along the lines of 'It's not Joey. He has a bigger stomach than Rabbit... it's ok I know him.'

I kind of expected one of them to be from Glee since it was on Fox, but I don't think any of them fit.

I kind of forgot all about Lion, seems like she's hardly been on.

When Alien came out with the group song, she looked like her moves were more like a younger (than La Toya) person, but the badge confirmed it. I barely remembered the celebrity cop show, but I remembered Estrada on there, and I knew the Jacksons were from Gary, IN.

A "scrunchie"??

People have been guessing him for the Peacock though...

We finally watched most of an episode this week and it was okay. I was more amused by my wife asking over and over why this show is a show than the show itself. Tori Spelling seemed absolutely unprepared to say anything after her unmasking. How did she not at least get coached on what to say and how to say it? Know what you're going to say, and try not to make it essentially repeating what you said in your pre-recorded masked video.

Fatone's pretty much a Reality Show "regular". One of the clues a few weeks back showed a hot dog and he has a hot dog stand ("Fat Ones"). However, I'm not that familiar with his singing voice and, I, too, thought he was huskier.

Would this be more interesting without all of the (obvious) hints?

Part of me wants to be fooled until the unmasking. I'm glad there's at least some back-and-forth on a couple of them. The ones that have ben pretty much firmly deduced (Ricki Lake, LaToya) are less interesting to me now). I would cut the clues in half and make them strictly visual, -other than singing. I would think they'd tell the judges to guess wildly rather than be on the money; imagine if they pegged all of them the first week.

What are the voters voting for? To stay on it get unmasked.
Fat one is a big guy so if he’s rabbit they must be squeezing him into that costume.
He makes regular appearances on Impractical Jokers, have the clues tied into that?
Apparently Gladys Knight is singing the anthem at the super bowl so she must be one of these singers. Right?

How many more episodes is this? I assume the last episode episode will unmask the last 2-4 singers.

I think the rabbit is AJ Mclean from the Backstreet Boys. You heard it hear first.

And for all I know it could be. I do know the rabbit dodged the question when Nicole asked if they ever appeared at the same concert. However, if it is AJ McLean, than I've got to ask, with all due respect, -Who the hell is AJ McLean?

The Rabbit is most likely a former boy bander, either NSYNS, Back Street Boys, or NKOTB. Be hilarious if it’s Donnie-Don, Jenny’s husband.

The inventor of the McLean Deluxe, obviously.

There's no way that Brooklyn written note in the window of the package last night didn't mean something. Looking him up, he was born in Florida. Doesn't make sense.

I wouldn't necessarily take the clues literally. One of them for Margaret Cho was something about 'honor' that had to do with a character she played.

Then there's this...

I watched the first couple and realized that I just dont know enough about any of these people to either guess, be surprised by or impressed by anyone on the show. Cool concept but the celeberties are way too obscure for me to care.

If they're pulling in boy band members from the 90s, they're going to lose a ton of the audience. Yeah, I know one or two of these guys but if it isn't the "front man" I have no idea who they are and neither do my kids (who always wind up saying "who is that?")

They are obviously pushing Rabbit as one of the big stars of the show, no way they are going to reveal him as AJ Mclean.

Re: The Masked Singer (FOX) -- celebrity singing game show

I have a pretty good idea on everybody left, but I'm totally lost on the monster... A boxer maybe?

I see most people on Reddit think it's
Spoiler:
T-pain
since he streams on Twitch (video game imagery in the hints, along with a gaming headset).

Well Bee is clearly Gladys.
it was funny during the superbowl that people were saying that Bee did a great job with the anthem.

But when they showed waffles during one of the clues and the bakeware it was obvious.

She has a restaurant in Atlanta called Gladys Knights Chicken and Waffles.

TPain is beyond my scope so I got nothing on him.
