Arctic Fox's Identity Revealed? The Masked Singer Fans React to Anton Du Beke's Performance (2026)

The Masked Singer is back, and the internet is already buzzing! Viewers are convinced they've cracked the code on one of the new contestants, Arctic Fox, in a matter of seconds.

On Sunday night, the ITV show unveiled its latest batch of masked performers, and Arctic Fox kicked things off with a high-energy rendition of Pink's "Get The Party Started." But before the song was even over, social media exploded with a single name: Anton Du Beke, the beloved judge from Strictly Come Dancing.

Fans were quick to take to social media, with one viewer boldly stating, "Arctic Fox is 100% Anton Du Beke!" Others chimed in, pointing out the apparent lack of effort to disguise his voice. "That’s Anton Du Beke!" another exclaimed, while a flurry of similar comments flooded the online space.

Here are some of the clues presented for Arctic Fox:

  • Appeared on top of a snowy mountain.
  • A pencil sketch of them.
  • 'Worn many crowns in my time...and I expect the red carpet treatment'
  • Has sharp claws.
  • Food for hungry bears written on a jar.
  • In front of camera and behind the scenes.

Despite the clear consensus among viewers, the panel of judges – Davina McCall, Maya Jama, Mo Gilligan, and Jonathan Ross – failed to guess Anton. However, the clues certainly seem to align with the Strictly star. The crowns could symbolize his dance competition victories, and the sharp claws might be a nod to his judging role.

But here's where it gets controversial... Could the clues be intentionally misleading? Or is the panel simply playing coy? What do you think? Do you agree with the fans, or do you have a different theory about the Arctic Fox's identity? Share your thoughts in the comments!
