The crab in the fifth season of "Masked Singer" was revealed as the 90s music icon Bobby Brown. We have explained how all the clues fit this talented artist.
The Masked Singer's two-hour Super 8 special program resulted in two shocking eliminations. Crab was the first celebrity to be eliminated and was revealed to be the former member of the new band Bobby Brown. When Brown wore a costume like actor Mickey Locke, he was exposed almost early, and he tried to take off his mask on stage. However, unlike Mickilock's elf, the staff was able to take Brown to the backstage before taking off the head of the costume. Nevertheless, the face under the mask was not a big surprise. Both the fans and the judges confirmed that Crab was Bobby Brown's first performance.
The crab's clues and voices are so clear that it makes us wonder if they are too obvious. The music icon is recorded as the first aired judge's correct guess. In the past season, the judges’ correct guesses did not broadcast the contestants’ first performance. Usually, the correct guess will not be broadcast until the week they go home. The earlier correct guess has been deleted because fans noticed that when Nicole Schüzinger correctly guessed the former masked singer contestant Jesse McCartney and said that she insisted on the previous guess, the fans never saw pass. No matter how early the judges make the right judgment, it is still no earlier than the fans.

We predicted Bobby Brown and connected all the clues to him after his first performance, but since the group quickly guessed his name, we doubted it. But it's hard to ignore the clue matching, and of course Brown's iconic voice. This week's clues are no exception. The marshmallow and "bustin" mentioned in his clues were created for Ghostbusters II and his song "On Our Own". These two songs are his contribution to the film's soundtrack and also appear in on the screen. Jacks Playing Card also points to this song because it is believed to bring the new jack swing style into the mainstream and helped Brown win the title of "New Jack Swing King" together with the founder of the style, Teddy Riley. "
Some of the more obvious clues are about the singer's personal life. Crab talked about his dream come true, everyone in the world envied him, but said that his blessing was accompanied by a huge tragedy. Brown was once on top of the world. He continued his new career with a successful personal career. In his personal life, he married the superstar Whitney Houston. The tragedy that followed was also very public-his recorded drug use and imprisonment experience, the tragic death of not only his ex-wife but also his daughter Bobbi Kristina, and the death of his son Bobby Brown Jr. shortly after the death.
Some of the more confusing clues were the Mona Lisa painting, which turned out to be a more general nod to his early album masterpiece. He talked about family while showing the butterfly costume worn by Michelle Williams and the bee costume worn by Gladys Knight. These are all connected with the American soul. The show follows Don Cornelius and the Soul Train. Bobby Brown played Rufus Thomas, Michelle Williams played Diana Rose, and her former teammate Kelly Rowland played Gladys Knight.
Brown is part of the music superstar that appeared in "The Masked Singer", and he will be deeply missed. He added the program to the new wildcard transition and set a new model. The first wildcard Orca is singer Mark McGrath. If our prediction of Yeti is correct, then he is also a professional recording artist. This means that wildcards are experienced heavy hitters. Another pattern that Brown follows is that between the crabs being eliminated by shells and the orcas being expelled last week, ocean-themed costumes seem to have suffered bad luck this season.
