The Masked Singer US finally unveils White Tiger as NFL star Rob Gronkowski
The Masked Singer US has revealed the man behind the White Tiger mask at long last, confirming both viewers' and the judges' suspicions all along. Yes, Joe Exotic, welcome to The Masked Singer.
Just kidding.
In Wednesday's (April 1) episode, The Masked Singer of course confirmed American football legend Rob Gronkowski as White Tiger – something we at Digital Spy called a long time ago.
Also affectionately known as the Gronk, the NFL star is best-known for being a three-time Super Bowl champion with the New England Patriots.
Revealing the surprising reason for his turn on the reality series, Rob admitted that he was in it for the dancing lessons, rather than the singing. "This experience has changed me in many ways," he said after leaving the show.
"First off, I've always wanted to learn how to dance. I've always had my own type of rhythm, I've always loved to dance, but I got to be taught by professionals real dance moves, real rhythm," he explained. "It just felt great."

Calling the judges' guesses throughout the series "spot on", Rob also admitted that he was a little disappointed to be waving goodbye to the White Tiger costume.
"The White Tiger has some special, contagious energy that he brings to the table," he said. "That's why he's wondering why he's going home."
The Masked Singer US airs on FOX. Its UK equivalent is currently available to stream on the ITV Hub.
