  • Modeled for major agency, did teen acne commercials, landed international sitcom parts, made out with Tom Cruise

Squirrel on ‘The Masked Singer’ — The Guesses

Spoiler alert! While we don't know for sure who is behind the Squirrel mask, the correct identity may be spoiled in the guesses below.

Given the few clues we have so far, and Ken Jeong’s breakdown of who the famous face behind the mask could be, a lot of folks believe that Margot Robbie is the masked singer.

For starters, Ken points out that Margot appeared in I, Tonya as a figure skater. Not to mention, since Squirrel appears to be dolled up, it could be Margot since she is starring as Barbie, the Mattel doll in the movie of the same title that’s set to release in July 2023.

Other guesses included Katie Holmes (from Jenny McCarthy) and Uma Thurman (Robin Thicke's guess). Nicole Scherzinger believes Squirrel could be actress (and aspiring singer) Kate Hudson, which is our prediction.

So, who is Squirrel on 'The Masked Singer'? The answer is…

While Katherine Heigl, Anne Hathaway, and Kate Hudson were guessed by judges, Jenny McCarthy ultimately guessed correctly and named actress Malin Akerman (who kissed Tom Cruise on Rock of Ages)!

"I was just so excited to get to do this and watch it with my son," Malin said of the experience. "And my dad is here from Sweden... it's so fun. Everyone dreams of being a rock star and it's an honor to be here."

A new episode of The Masked Singer premieres tonight at 8 p.m. EST on Fox.
