After her performance of Lizzo’s “Cuz I Love You” last week, the Sun did not come to play once again. For round two, the Sun performed Kesha’s song, “Praying,” and left the judges amazed by her star power. There are a lot of theories flying around about the Sun’s identity. Whoever she is, she has a pretty solid shot at winning the whole thing if she keeps pulling out all the stops for performances like she did this week. Keep reading to see what we know so far and the best guesses we’ve seen so far.

The first set of clues didn’t include any dead giveaways—but that’s how it always goes. We know the Sun is someone who’s set a few records, but who became depressed after they quickly shot to stardom. Other clues: A Mickey Mouse head silhouette, a “Gold Member” card, a chihuahua, and a swimming pool. For stars who broke out on reality shows, here are The 30 Most Successful Reality TV Personalities of the Last 30 Years. This week’s clues are a bit more revealing. The Sun is someone who loves nature, has been cooking up “tasty treats,” and is “burning the ugly rumors out of my life.” She’s also celebrating every day like it’s Halloween and reclaiming her childhood. There’s also a Magic 8 Ball involved. The biggest theory out there is that the Sun is LeAnn Rimes, and it’s easy to see why: The Sun sounds so much like her. (There’s even a video of her online singing the Lizzo song the Sun performed last week.) Rimes was also a child star, and she’s definitely a fan of nature and the outdoors—and back in 1997, she performed in her own concert special on Disney Channel, which would explain the Mickey Mouse clue.ae0fcc31ae342fd3a1346ebb1f342fcb For the star you loved most growing up, This Was the Most Popular Teen Idol the Year You Graduated. Speaking of the Mickey clue, fans on Reddit are convinced that the Sun could be a child star who got their start on Disney Channel. The names being thrown around include Demi Lovato, Hilary Duff, and Christy Carlson Romano. A video of Kylie Jenner singing “Rise and Shine” to her daughter Stormi went viral last year, so it kind of makes sense that some people are thinking that it all ties back to her.

Another theory on Twitter that’s making the rounds: the Sun is Scarlett Johansson, based on her voice alone. It would definitely be surprising if the Black Widow star were competing on the show, but stranger things have happened on The Masked Singer. All signs definitely seem to be pointing to Rimes right now, and hopefully, her next performance will really seal it. It could be awhile before we see the Sun take off the mask, however, because whoever’s hiding in there is incredibly talented.
