Masked Singer's Firework 'definitely' Kerry Katona according to viewers after tell tale clues

A shock new name has become the frontrunner to be Firework as The Masked Singer and it's none other than Kerry Katona.

After both Heather Small and Gloria Hunniford were given the boot as the show returned for a third series last weekend, the zany ITV show went to the movies for its latest episode on Saturday night.

And, before Firework had even started singing the title track of Fame, many viewers watching at home became convinced that the person behind the mask was Kerry.

There was a nod to her appearance on Dancing on Ice over a decade ago with the appearance of a pair of ice skates in the latest VT, as well as mention of winning a reality show, which Kerry did in early 2004 when she triumphed on I'm A Celebrity.

In the clues dropped after her performance, Firework teased so was no stranger to a dumping in her 'two lies and a truth' and, having gone through a series of high profile break ups, including her split from ex husband Brian McFadden, that definitely is a nod to Kerry's love life.

And then there's a fact that Firework has a definite northern accent and, with Kerry hailing from Warrington, that's another nod in her direction.

After Firework stood in front of the panel, with their guesses including Big Brother winner Kate Lawler and Michelle Keegan, fans flocked to Twitter to put Kerry as a 'nailed on' prediction.

One posted: "Firework has to be Kerry Katona!!" a second reacted: "The raspy voice, the stature….Firework has to be Kerry Katona"

A third tweeted: "Firework is deffo Kerry Katona," but othes argued Kerry's singing voice didn't match Firework's.
