LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Fans of 'The Masked Singer' Season 11 grew confident in identifying Starfish as Kate Flannery, thanks to the provided clues.

According to a Reddit thread, a post that was later deleted by Fox accidentally disclosed that the veteran actor was the one behind the mask.

Although the edit featuring Kate Flannery was leaked, which was promptly deleted, fans quickly caught on, confirming that it was related to the Starfish mask on The Masked Singer. 

In the episode that aired on Wednesday, March 6, Starfish captivated the audience with a flawless rendition of Madonna's 'Material Girl.' Beyond her impressive performance, the clues she shared strongly align with Kate Flannery.

For instance, when Starfish mentioned owning a title that made her known worldwide, it resonates with Kate Flannery's diverse talents, particularly her role as Meredith Palmer on 'The Office'.

These clues, among others, have convinced fans that Starfish is indeed Kate Flannery behind the mask.

Meet Starfish, a colossal blue sea star, who's decked out in a swimsuit covered in starfish prints, paired with a matching swim cap. Adding to the underwater theme, Starfish is sporting a scuba mask and a snorkel on its face. Interestingly, the snorkel's mouthpiece cleverly doubles as their microphone. 

In its first clue package, the mask cleverly revealed, “I heard you guys were having a career party, so I threw on a bathing suit and came right over. When I first started out, I was serving steaks to the stars with nothing to my name."

Along with this, in the initial clue package, there's a mix of quirky items. A cup filled with office supplies, pictures of Steve Martin and Whitney Houston, a sign with "No shirt, no shoes, no starfish" and a four-leaf clover, a bottle of "PA’s Sunscreen" featuring Pennsylvania on the logo, a stuffed doll, and numerous "masked bucks" (money) are all present.

Another clue that the mask revealed was that it has a performance: “One that would make my name known worldwide.” “So trust that your ‘yes’ is coming, or just find a rich sugar mama like me to mooch off of,” it added.
