'The Masked Singer' Season 3: Fans say Hunter Hayes is the Astronaut while Nicole thinks it's Zac Efron
This episode of 'The Masked Singer' saw judge Nicole Scherzinger in tears after Group C contestant Astronaut took to stage. He sang Lauren Daigle's 2018 hit 'You Say'. The soulful performance left everyone touched and Nicole was left wiping away her tears at the end of the performance.
"You just sang your heart out, thank you so much for being vulnerable," said Nicole. Astronaut's voice reminded Jenny McCarthy of a boy bander and she went with Lance Bass as her guess for who she thinks is under the mask. Ken Jeong guessed Adam DeVine and Josh Hutcherson and Nicole are very convinced that it could be Zac Efron.
The preview of the episode had revealed the six contestants going on stage for the March 11 episode and it also featured a little sneak peek of Astronaut's performance from the episode. Fans of the show, as usual, are hard at work decoding the identity of each contestant and fans are convinced that it is none other than country singer Hunter Hayes under Astronaut's mask.

"Next person to claim this is jesse McCartney looses brownie points Jesse IS the turtle and hunter Hayes is the astronaut case closed" wrote another fan. "The astronaut on @MaskedSingerFOX
