Followers and judges on The Masked Singer season 5 are satisfied Robopine is Jamie Foxx, however we have the proof that implies in any other case.
Followers and judges on The Masked Singer suppose Robopine might be actor Jamie Foxx, however we’re not so positive. Foxx has been guessed so usually by the panelists that they’ve a jar they need to put cash in once they guess the Ray actor, however that also hasn’t slowed down the present’s hottest guess. Followers have been satisfied season two winner Fox was the award-winning actor, however it turned out to be Whose Line Is it Anyway? star Wayne Brady. This season, it is Robopine they suppose might be Foxx, and a few followers even suppose he might be the troublemaking, non-singing masked addition to the present, Cluedle Doo.
We beforehand predicted the identification of Cluedle Doo, and it looks as if having Foxx on the present with out utilizing his wonderful singing voice would simply be a waste. Nevertheless, it would not be the primary time the franchise has left a tremendous vocalist with out a voice. The spin-off present, The Masked Dancer, noticed 17-time grammy-winning singer Brian McKnight choose to bop as a substitute of sing. That stated, we’re assured in our prediction that Cluedle Doo is a reputation heard simply as usually on the present as Jamie Foxx – that of frequent visitor choose Joel McHale. McHale’s historical past with the present mixed with the truth that he is launching his personal present following the finale of The Masked Singer makes him a greater match. However what about Robopine?

We determined to investigate the clues to indicate the explanations Jamie Foxx is probably going not Robopine. First is the peak. Whereas Robopine seems to be a lot much less huge subsequent to Nick Cannon than he did subsequent to Niecy Nash, it is nonetheless clear he is near Cannon’s top and, at most, an inch or so shorter. This could make him within the 6-foot vary. Foxx is 5’9″ and can be considerably and visibly shorter than the host. Subsequent is the age. Robopine claimed to be 60 with grandkids. Foxx is barely 53 with two daughters ages 12 and 27 and no grandchildren. Some suppose Robopine might be mendacity, however it’s arduous to imagine that might be true. Not one of the clues would have any which means if any of them might be a lie.
Whereas Foxx’s voice admittedly does have the identical easy high quality as Robopine’s voice, the opposite clues simply do not line up. Whereas we initially predicted Steve Harvey was Robopine with some nice clue matches, later performances and clues appear to not match Harvey. Plus, seeing Robopine subsequent to Cannon, it is unlikely it is somebody taller than him, like our guesses of Steve Harvey and Damon Wayans. The largest clue appears to even be essentially the most tough to tie to any of the celebrities, and that is the repeated clues about childhood in Costa Rica. A celeb who’s over 60 with grandkids, can sing and dance like that, and spent a minimum of a part of their childhood in Costa Rica is so particular they need to be very simple to establish, and but nobody has discovered somebody who suits.
So, what if we disregard all of the clues? The panelists really stated they did not imagine Robopine and did not restrict themselves to somebody of that age. Should you toss all of the clues, then the selection must be Tyrese Gibson. The voice sounds extra like his than anybody else. He has a brand new album popping out to advertise that occurs to be known as Identification Thief. Followers suppose that is what he is doing now with the faux clues. However maybe essentially the most telling of all is the truth that he has been noticed in one of many “don’t speak to me” hoodies the performers put on backstage. Earlier contestants Caitlyn Jenner and Wendy Williams have been spoiled by being noticed in the identical hoodie. So, whereas who Robopine is is likely to be up within the air, it looks as if it positively is not Jamie Foxx. Higher luck subsequent season.
The Masked Singer airs Wednesdays at 8 pm ET on Fox.
