But will they be able to do it?

So far, there have been numerous guesses as for who could be behind the mask – ranging from Spice Girls star Geri Halliwell to Paris Hilton and Sheridan Smith.

Most recently, some have suggested that British singer Ella Eyre could be behind the mask due to the similarity in their singing voices.

Eiffel Tower will compete against Air Fryer, Piranha, Cricket and Big Foot, who are the five contestants remaining in the season 5 line-up, with seven celebrities already unmasked.

Dionne Warwick was the first celebrity to be unveiled as Weather, followed by Alexander Armstrong (Chicken Caesar), Shirley Ballas (Rat), Julia Sawalha (Bubble Tea) and Lorraine Kelly (Owl).

Last week, the show had its first double elimination, with Nicky Campbell being revealed as Dippy Egg first. Pussycat Dolls star Melody Thornton was then unveiled as Maypole, after many correct guesses.

The Masked Singer theories

Is The Masked Singer's Eiffel Tower Ella Eyre?

Some armchair detectives think British singer Ella Eyre is under the mask.

Eyre is best known for her collaboration with Rudimental on their UK number-one single Waiting All Night, which won the 2014 Brit Award for British Single of the Year.

Following one of Eiffel Tower's performances, a viewer asked: "Does anyone else think Eiffel Tower sounds like Ella Eyre?"

Ella was also suggested for Maypole, who was eventually unmasked to be Melody Thornton. So, could she be hiding in this costume instead?

Only time will tell..
