Masked Singer’s Tattoo is legendary 80s star, claim fans after spotting FOUR clues
THE Masked Singer’s Tattoo is a legendary 80s star, fans are claiming.
After spotting four telltale clues – plus more – fans are convinced that Tattoo is a famous singer from the hit band T’Pau.
Tattoo is based on the stereotypical heart tattoos, with a feminine face as a head and the costume being a heart with flowers adorned around it.
There is also a big ribbon that has the word “LOVE” written on it, with an arrow piercing through the heart costume.
Clues so far have been this riddle: “If you want a tattoo then you surely have heard, you can’t beat a loved one with one special word.”
And this opening monologue: “Oh hello there! It’s me, Tattoo. I’m so excited to be here. This tattoo doesn’t want to be hidden, I’m too firey for that. I might look all hearts and flowers, but don’t be fooled by my appearance.
“If you asked, say, 100 members of the public, they’d tell you I’m not just decorative.
“I’ve always followed my heart when it comes to my career, and this time, it’s led me here, to The Masked Singer.
“It’s the ultimate screen test, and it’s time I got in on the act.
“I’ll let you draw your own conclusions. I’m ready for my closeup tonight.”
After listening to her singing voice and dissecting the clues, fans at home have “figured out” who Tattoo really is.
TATTOO’S IDENTITY RUMBLED
“Think @MaskedSingerUK … Carol Decker #TPau is TATTOO … ‘Heart And Soul’ ‘Valentine’,” penned one fan on X.
They added: “‘China in Your Hand’ was 5 weeks at Number 1. In ‘Just The Two of Us’ TV Show, hence 2 of various dancing characters on stage. Red hair & firey.”
Someone else then added: “I think Tattoo is Carol Decker.”
While a third declared: “Tattoo is Carol Decker…no doubt in my mind.”
Another viewer then penned on the social media platform: “I found Tattoo really hard but I’ve listened and scrutinised the clues and I do think I’ve cracked her – I think it’s Carol Decker from T’Pau!”
They later added: “Tattoo – CarolDecker! All the mentions of ‘heart’ – T’Pau classic Heart & Soul and her solo song One Heart.
“‘Fiery’ – flame red hair. Lucky Charms – T’Pau song With A Little Luck. ‘5 weeks’ is how long China In Your Hand was No. 1. Powerhouse voice!”
Who has left The Masked Singer 2025 so far?
Much to the delight of telly fans, The Masked Singer is back in 2025.
Twelve celebrities have been hidden behind intricate costumes, with their identities concealed.
Sadly, not all of this year’s whacky and wonderful characters can make it to the end of the show, as there can only be one winner.
Here’s who has been unmasked so far:
Toad In The Hole – a massive diva strop saw the character storm off the stage after the judges voted them off. They later returned to be unmasked as singer Macy Gray
Pegasus – the mythical horse was revealed to be Prue Leith, with judge Jonathan Ross correctly guessing her identity
Spag Bol – this character was first to be unmasked and was none other than Good Morning Britain host Kate Garraway.
Plus there was one extra unmasking this season, with Giant Joel – a caricature of host Joel Dommett – unveiled as double-double Olympic champion Sir Mo Farah.
