THE Masked Singer fans are convinced character Sloth is a major reality TV star with a VERY famous partner after spotting a major ‘giveaway clue’.
Viewers have rushed to social media with their theories amid Sloth’s various performances, insisting the mystery celeb’s identity is in fact a very well-known Love Island star from series three.
Last week, Sloth sang Tubthumping by Chumbawamba on The Masked Singer.
He also previously got audiences hyped with his renditions of Green Green Grass by George Ezra and Flash Bang Wallop by Tommy Steele.
Dressed in neon attire, the Sloth’s mannerisms are very energetic and sometimes chaotic, with him often hugging those around him.
Based on Sloth’s voice and actions, fans are convinced they have sussed out their identity.

Viewers believe Sloth is none other than Chris Hughes, with eagle-eyed fans claiming a clue has proven his identity beyond doubt.
The hint seems to link Chris to his Celebrity Big Brother co-star who he’s currently dating.
Taking to TikTok, one commented: “100% on Chris Hughes, said it since week 1, but the SW1A fully confirmed it for me (JoJo SIWA!)”
A Reddit user similarly agreed: “I think Sloth is Chris Hughes!! The postcode was SW1A which could be reference to JoJo siwa.”
“Sloth im flicking between jack whitehall or chris hughes,” penned another.
“Thought sometimes it sounded like him and the sw1a thing i thought jojo siwa.”
OTHER CLUES
Other clues from the show include lots of exercise visuals, a fitness studio with a boom box on the floor, filming themselves as if presenting something and a gym with various gym equipment.
Sloth has said various phrases as clues, such as “We’re hitting century reps today. This is a labour of love.”
He has also said: “Now I’m bringing Fitness, Fashion, and Fierceness to the competition. I know how to represent in the gym and on the world stage.”
However, some fans think Sloth could be another famous face, with guesses including chef Jamie Oliver, comedian Jack Whitehall, boxer Tommy Fury, Corrie’s Colson Smith and Made in Chelsea’s Sam Thompson.
CHRIS AND JOJO SIWA
Chris soared to fame on Love Island series three, where he coupled up with the girl who coined the phrase “the ick” – Olivia Attwood.
They finished as runners-up, with Kem and Amber winning the 2017 series.
Chris and Olivia then parted ways a few months after show filming.
More recently, Chris participated in the 2025 series of Celebrity Big Brother.
He found love after falling for JoJo Siwa during his time in the house.
They have been in a relationship since and frequently flaunt their love on social media.
The pair have been inseparable, and have made sure to have weekends away together and spontaneous holidays.
JoJo recently spoke out about how she wants kids with Chris in the near future.
And she horrified fans after sharing a series of AI-generated pics which gave fans a peek at what their future kids would look like.
She posted a picture of them with two adorable children – one girl and one boy.
Explaining how she had generated the pics, she wrote: “I asked ChatGBT to turn us into a family.”
Fans took to the comments to discuss the pics, with one saying: “This is so horrifying why is ai so good at generating children specifically.”
Another said: “Joelle i love you, but keep this relationship so close to your heart, it’s okay to keep your life private and your personal life intimate.”
A third said: “I love you but this is crazy.”
