The Masked Singer fans have launched a new set of theories in an effort to predict the identities of this year’s contestants, and one ITV staple keeps cropping up.
With Can of Worms set to make another appearance on Saturday’s show, theories have been swirling that the secret singer could be from This Morning – but eagled eyed fans believe clues don’t point towards Ben Shephard.
A new series of the show began earlier this month, with judges Jonathan Ross, Davina McCall Mo Gilligan and Maya Jama attempting to detect the voice of the anonymous singers.
In their first appearance, Can of Worms gave a set of clues many believe point towards JLS star and frequent This Morning guest Marvin Humes.

In their set of clues ahead of their debut performance on the January 3 show, Can of Worms stated: “Hey, y’all, I’m Can of Worms, and I’m worming my way into the competition.”
The judges immediately suspected a “fake American accent.”
Can of Worms continued: “How awesome to be on the Masked Singer. It’s just the beginning, and I never want to leave.”
In their video, pastries could be seen in the background, which was noted by Mr Ross.
Mr Gilligan shared: “Ah, baking,” while Ms Jama stating: “I’m thinking breakfast TV.”
As they walked through a garden, the secret celeb continued: “Do you want to see what I’ve been up to? Here’s my patch. Isn’t it rad?

“All these beautiful things I’ve grown. As a worm, I have green fingers. It runs the family, like it was written in the stars.
“The first tip from me, you must water your plants as much as possible. I mean, not all the time. Put that watering can down and relax.”
The camera panned to a framed photo of former Top Gear stars James May and Richard Hammond.
Comedian Mr Ross commented: “Maybe Clarkson’s Farm. There’s that young guy, Kaleb.”
Concluding, Can of Worms shared: “It really sucks when I have to wrestle with wildlife. They’re famous for hugging my juicy fruits.
“If I can come out top tonight like I did with my zucchini at the trade show last year, I’ll be stoked.”

Someone else commented: “Right okayyyy so the farm clue is now leading me towards JB from JLS even though the voice definitely sounded more Marvin #maskedsingeruk.”
“Worm is Marvin out of JLS @MarvinHumes @jlsofficial #MaskedSingerUK,” one more added.
Others countered the argument though, with one fan writing: “Worms sounds NOTHING like @MarvinHumes I’m sorryyyyy #MaskedSingerUK.”
“#MaskedSingerUK @MaskedSingerUK I might have opened a can of worms… but I think I’ve cracked them open and it’s of course the amazing @andipeters I know that voice!” another shared, adding another ITV presenter name into the mix. (sic)
