Masked Singer's Phoenix gives fans identity 'conundrum' as same clue applies to two stars

Fans of The Masked Singer were presented with a big 'conundrum' on Saturday night as a potential clue to the identity of Phoenix could be applied to two different stars.

While the identities of the likes of Knitting and Rhino look like being pretty conclusive, with viewers being certain that they are Claire Richards and Charlie Simpson respectively, Phoenix has been harder to pin down, although some people are now sure it is Kaiser Chiefs frontman Ricky Wilson, due to a series of clues, including the mention of football, which could be a nod to Kaiser Chiefs also being the name of a football team.

In the hours leading up to this weekend's Masked Singer, a post was made on the show's Twitter account telling fans that there would e 'hidden meanings' in all of the performances. Phoenix was first up to perform on the latest episode, belting out Elton John classic I'm Still Standing.

Sticking firm with her prediction, Davina once again said she believed it was David Tennant, being convinced after a clue about being 'on the biggest show on TV,' which she took as a nod to Doctor Who.

There are plenty of viewers share her opinion, with many also stuck on it being Ricky and on searching both of their names alongside Elton John to see if any clues matched up, viewers stumbled up videos and stories of them performing a duet of Elton and Kiki Dee anthem Don't Go Breaking My Heart, meaning Phoenix could still feasibly be either of them.

Reacting to what they saw, one Twitter user posted: ". Based on the songs being a clue I googled "Ricky Wilson Elton John" OH COME ON?" Having done exactly the same, another tweeted: "Boom. A little Google does the trick. A Bring The Noise video. Ricky Wilson and David Tennant perform Don't Go Breaking My Heart by Elton John and Kiki Dee."
