Who do the judges think Monkey Business is on The Masked Singer?
Jonathan Ross noticed the private jet and hint to medicine in Monkey Business’s VT, as well as tech and IT. He thought that this would mean that the hidden celebrity was Katherine Parkinson, who appeared in The IT Crowd.
Maya Jama spotted references to The Apprentice, but felt this was a red herring. She went down the route of thinking Monkey Business might be a comedian, specifically Katherine Ryan. Maya admitted that it was unlikely since Katherine has already appeared on the show, adding that Cheryl was another guess of hers. In a later episode, she also pointed towards Rivals star Emily Atack.
Mo Gilligan said he felt as though he recognised the voice. He thought it could be The Apprentice star Karren Brady. He also though an ex-Love Island star could be behind the mask, going in the direction of Olivia Attwood.
Davina McCall picked up on the business clues but instead of going down The Apprentice route, she went towards Dragon’s Den and guessed former dragon Sara Davies.
Guest judge Matt Lucas guessed that Monkey Business was Martine McCutcheon. Freddie Flintoff also thought that Monkey Business could be Deborah Meaden or Hannah Waddingham.
Who do fans think Monkey Business is in The Masked Singer?

However, others have pieced together clue to point towards former Atomic Kitten star Natasha Hamilton. One fan said: “I feel like Monkey Business is Natasha Hamilton - plenty of clues match to it being her? Still not certain though.”
