Mustang on 'The Masked Singer' — The Clues
As the season kicks off, viewers are introduced to three masked singers, including Mustang, who revealed that she has "sold out arenas, I’ve won awards, and even collaborated with Elvis."
Other clues included that she was on the cover of a “Most Beautiful People” magazine and that she "I almost died more time than I can count."
For her first and only performance, Mustang belted out her rendition of White Snake’s “Here I Go Again”. While we’ve only seen a glimpse of what Mustang’s got, viewers already have a few guesses about who’s behind the mask.

Not long after a clip of Mustang’s performance surfaced on social media, the predictions started rolling in.
“You can not listen to country music and not know this is, in fact, 100% Sara Evans,” one commenter wrote on YouTube.
“It was the hand that gave it away for me. She's always got her hand up when she's performing then the voice clicked,” another added.
Other guesses include Sugarland’s Jennifer Nettles, Kate Hudson, Emily Strayer, and Pink.
So, who is Mustang on 'The Masked Singer'? The answer is…
The judges were convinced that Mustang was a famous singer like Pink or Joan Jett, and they weren't wrong. It was actually country singer Sara Evans under the horse costume.
"I love the show and I don't think there's enough country artists represented," Sara said of her decision to come on the show. "I have three children and we're going to watch it together."
