‘The Masked Singer’ Rhino Clues

In a preview for episode 7, host Nick Cannon teased that between the 6 unidentified celebrities competing in Group C, “they have one Guinness World Record, 3 New York Times bestsellers, and 36 gold records.”

The Rhino costume features an old-school pilot’s uniform and brown hairpiece, and fans are wondering if the costume design is a clue to the Rhino’s identity. When introducing the Rhino as a season 3 contestant, The Masked Singer‘s Twitter account teased “#RhinoMask is just plane awesome,” further hinting that the flight-themed get-up was not just an arbitrary design choice.

When the Rhino made his entrance onto the stage, the judges commented that he is very tall.

At the start of the Rhino’s first clue package, he said (in a very deep voice) “While my exterior may look tough and callous, I’m really just a gentle giant.”

The Rhino teased that he was very famous when he was younger and on top every week, but “being on the top became an addiction” that he struggled with once he lost some of his fame.

Some major visual clues that the judges pointed out as the package played were a giant guitar with the words “Grand Ole Opry” on its neck, a motorcycle, and butterflies. It’s worth noting that one of the security guards in the video was wearing a blue wig.

At one point in the video, the word “FAITH” could be seen written on a ramp. He also said he was ready to take a “leap of faith” by competing on The Masked Singer.

As soon as the Rhino started singing “Have a Little Faith in Me” by John Hiatt, it was clear that the celebrity behind the mask can sing.

When Nick Cannon asked the disguised star what he did to prepare to take on the character of the Rhino for the competition, he said “I went to my home gym, turned up the music as loud as I could, and danced until I found that inner kid in me that didn’t have a care in the world.”

According to Woman’s Day, the Rhino’s pilot costume had fans guessing that the celebrity behind the mask might be actor John Travolta.

After the Rhino’s performance, Jenny McCarthy guessed Jason Aldean, Ken Jeong guessed Tim Tebow, and Nicole Scherzinger guessed Tim McGraw (since he has performed at the Grand Ole Opry and his wife is Faith Hill).

BEWARE OF SPOILERS: At the end of episode 7, the Bear was unmasked, revealing Governor Sarah Palin. This means that the Rhino will perform again in episode 8, which will also feature new clues and guesses about his celebrity identity.
