Who is Chess Piece on “The Masked Singer”? A Theory on the True Identity
Season 12 of “The Masked Singer” has been full of surprises, with five celebrities already unmasked. The most recent reveal was Dust Bunny, who turned out to be comedian Andy Richter. But the real mystery that has fans buzzing is the identity of Chess Piece.
After analyzing clues and performances, many believe that Chess Piece is none other than Jinkx Monsoon, a two-time winner of “RuPaul’s Drag Race.” The clues package featured references to past “Masked Singer” contestants who have been guest judges on “Drag Race,” as well as hints about struggles with self-confidence, which Jinkx has openly discussed.
Adding fuel to the speculation is the fact that Ambassador, another contestant, is believed to be Nikki Glaser, who has ties to Jinkx through their appearances on “Drag Race.” The theory is further supported by clues like green tennis shoes, possibly referencing Jinkx’s role in “Little Shop of Horrors.”
While there are other theories floating around, such as Billy Porter or Tinashe, the evidence pointing to Jinkx Monsoon as Chess Piece seems compelling. Fans will have to wait for the unmasking to see if their guesses are correct. Who do you think Chess Piece really is? Share your thoughts in the comments section.
