Here’s Why ‘The Masked Singer’ Fans Think The Bull is Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson
The Masked Singer airs every Wednesday on FOX. Fans can’t get enough of the different costumes — and the celebrities behind the masks. Speculation continues to surround The Bull, and which superstar could be hiding in the costume. Fans, however, think they’ve cracked the case, and speculate that Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson is the celebrity behind the mask.
[Spoiler alert: Potential spoilers for upcoming episodes of The Masked Singer are ahead.]
‘The Masked Singer’ gave very specific clues about The Bull
According to Gold Derby, there are some very specific clues that The Masked Singer gave about the identity of The Bull. But according to the outlet, they believe that Todrick Hall is the celebrity behind the mask.
“On episode 2, the Bull performed a scorching cover of “What Hurts the Most” by Rascal Flatts punctuated by some jaw-dropping falsetto notes that were extremely high and difficult for anyone to hit,” they wrote. “The Bull got the room rocking to “Circus” by Britney Spears. So many of Bull’s dance moves are familiar to fans of Todrick. And we saw a shot of another iconic music venue, Carnegie Hall, that includes his surname.”
But there are other possibilities, too.
Was there a clue in the song, too?
On The Masked Singer, The Bull sang “Drops of Jupiter” by Train. Check out the performance below.
When the character sang this relatively popular song, judge Ken Jeong believed that this was proof that Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson was the celebrity behind the mask. According to Cosmopolitan, though, this theory is far-fetched. “I can understand where he’s coming from, though, especially the point about transitioning into Hollywood,” they said. “The Rock does have a long history of being a stellar entertainer, although his singing and dancing hasn’t ever really been showcased. The thing about the Bull, they’re definitely a seasoned performer, no arguing that.”
But fans of The Masked Singer — and The Rock — tend to agree with Jeong’s assertion.
Here’s why fans think it’s Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson behind the mask
There are a number of clues that suggest that The Bull is Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
For one, the character carried an “Afro pick,” or a comb specifically designed for Black hair. Johnson, himself, is half-Black, and by his own admission, he grew an Afro in his younger days. What’s more, there’s a clip of the character claiming that his destiny was to be “the greatest of all time.” You can check out that clip below.
This was a claim that Johnson would frequently make during his wrestling years, so that’s another clue in his favor. Finally, the character claims that “Hollywood and even Forbes took notice” after a series of failures early on in his career. Johnson frequently talks about his early failures before his success really took off.
And did we mention that Johnson also has a tattoo of a Brahma bull on his arm?
Now, this is all just speculation. We’ll just have to tune in to upcoming episodes of The Masked Singer to see if it really is “The Rock” behind the mask.
