What are the clues for ‘The Masked Singer’ Wasp?

Wasp's mask in 'The Masked Singer' will be this wildly extravagant costume piece, where the insect is expressed in fierce and exquisite ways. Black and yellow, sleek colors both, show these are colors a wasp exhibits in nature.

The head features large, mirror-like eyes and antennae, while the wings are a translucent yellow with intricate patterns that give them a realistic, delicate appearance. The body is armored with segmented sections resembling a wasp’s exoskeleton, and the arms and legs, shaped like sharp points, enhance its intimidating and powerful presence.
