Writing on social media, The Masked Singer fans ran through the list of clues suggesting why Queen Latifah, 53, could be the woman behind the mask.
One suggested that the Bumblebee nightlight clues could refer to her movie: The Secret Life Of Bee.
Another thought the oranges refer to her place of birth in East Orange, New Jersey, US.
Some thought the Oscar statue could be a nod to her 2001 win for Chicago.
Another said that the salt and pepper on the table links to the 2021 film she’s produced about the 80s R&B group, Salt N-Pepa.
And one fan even noted that the Air Fryer costume is a key clue.
They posted: “A very popular Air Fryer recipe book is writen by a women named Dana Owens and Queen Latifah’s real name is Dana Owens.”

She later turned to film and television, starring in US sitcoms such as the Fresh Prince of Bel Air and a cameo in the 1991 film, Jungle Fever.

Latifah went on to star in a slew of blockbuster films, including, Fever Pitch, Bringin Down the House, opposite Steve Martin, and Hairspray.

And with a rumoured fortune of £70million, if Air Fryer does turn out to be Queen Latifah, she’s certainly not doing it for the money.
