Here's Why Fans Knew [SPOILER] Is the Frog on 'The Masked Singer'
May 20 2020, Updated 9:18 p.m. ET
After his performance of classics like "U Can’t Touch This" and "Jump," the Frog hopped his way to one of the final spots on Season 3 of The Masked Singer. And why wouldn't he? Not only are his performances arguably the most energetic of them all this season, but the Frog has some moves.
Before taking off the masks, fans already called that he was the famous rapper Bow Wow. Here's how they called it.
These clues make it clear that Frog is the rapper on 'The Masked Singer.'
If the voice hadn't convinced you yet that the Frog is actually Bow Wow, here are just some of the clues that we know line up with this theory.
One of the videos has a 1996 Atlanta Olympics poster, which could be a reference to Bow Wow's hometown. The same video also had $106 laid out on a railing, which could be a reference to 106 & Park, a show on BET that the rapper once hosted.
The price tag on the Walk of Fame tile is also a clear reference to his 2006 album "The Price of Fame," while all of the prince references could refer to his old single "Prince of Darkness."
Another reference to his music is when Frog said he's ready to sing his "face off," which is the title of another of his albums. There's also a platinum album in the gym where Nick Cannon goes to meet him in one of the videos, and Bow Wow received his first platinum title at only 13.
Really, if you're looking for connections with the rapper's music career, they're right there in plain sight.
There are also references to his acting gigs. The letters "CSI" on the typewriter are a reference to 2015 CSI spinoff, CSI: Cyber, while the basketball and the knight are potential references to his role as Los Angeles Knights player Calvin Cambridge in Like Mike.
Seriously, if you're not convinced yet, try to find another possible contender with as many clear connections as Bow Wow.
Fans on Twitter were adamant that Bow Wow was the Frog.
Don't just take it from us — the main consensus from fans on Twitter was that the famed rapper is definitely the frog — and they're all displeased at anyone guessing anyone else.
"The fact that y’all don’t know the frog on @MaskedSingerFOX is Bow Wow concerns me," one user tweeted while another said. "I have spent a good portion of my evening procrastinating by doing in depth research solidifying my masked singer theories. After quite a few listens and review of the clues, I’m convinced the frog is bow wow."
Though he came in third place, congrat to Bow Wow for a terrific run and a great season!
