www.facebook.com/groups/TeamJackieEvanchoUSA/permalink/2918049404923484/Stephen GalloI wasn’t going to post about the Kitty on “The Masked Singer” but so many are convinced that it’s Jackie Evancho, that I feel the need to do so. Jackie is not the only one I’ve seen suggested as the Kitty. The names Elizabeth Gillies, Emma Watson, Lindsey Lohan, Ariel Winter and Sarah Hyland have been mentioned among others. In fact, Elizabeth Gillies was mentioned in a spoiler as BEING the Kitty. The name Ariana Grande has come up as well, mainly because she is rumored to appear on the show this season. Do the clues fit Jackie? Yes, but they also fit the others as well. I will go through each clue using Emma Watson (who I think the Kitty is) to show how each clue can point to someone other than Jackie. I’m not doing this to prove it isn’t Jackie or that it is Emma, but to show how it could be someone other than Jackie.
Cat costume: Emma's character Hermione used a postion (the Polyjuice potion) in Chamber of Secrets to turn Harry, Ron and herself into members of the Slytherin House to get into it, except the potion "Hermione" drank turned her into a CAT girl. Hermione also has a pet cat in the Harry Potter movies
Episode 4 clues:1. Says, "In all my wildest dreams, I never imagined I'd be here. Where I feel at home among the weird and the wonderful." Reference to the Harry Potter movies which are full of magical creatures that could be described as "weird and wonderful"
2. Her clue package is also very retro with black-and-white stock footage of a theater and an old-timey audience. reference to period movies she's done, like Little Women that came out around Christmas
3. We see a man watching The Kitty through opera binoculars as she's on-stage in an old theater. There are opera glasses in Beauty and the Beast
4. Says, "It's almost like this show is made for me. A little bit of heaven where I can wipe the slate clean as purest snow." Reference to Beauty and the Beast being a Disney film and Disney princesses like Belle being pure as snow
5. We see a clip from an early film of an alchemist looking at the moon through a telescope. alchemist is a reference to the potions class in the Harry Potter movies
6. Says, "Sometimes it feels lonely because people don't think of me as the person I've become, but the person I once was." She started as a child star, and most people still see her as "Hermione" rather than as Emma.
7. Says, "Now, under these lights, among the cream of the crop, I get to start from scratch."
8. There is footage from an old pirate movie featuring sword fighting on the deck of a ship. The ship is the Durmstrang Ship from Goblet of Fire
9. Says, "Just like a kitty will always find a way to nuzzle into your heart, tonight, for my big debut, I'm going for high drama as I show you why I'm the pick of the litter." Again, that refers to Hermione. She was the main girl in the Harry Potter movies and everyone loved her
10. We see a red rose frozen and smashing into millions of pieces on the ground. Reference to Beauty and the Beast where she played Belle, and SANG
11. As Jenny says when she first walks out on stage, The Kitty is "itty bitty."\ Emma is not much more than 5' (She’s 5’4, maybe 5’5)
Episode 5 clues:1. Says, "Performing as The Kitty for the first time was a veritable fantasy. Like I had been waiting for this moment forever." Fantasy (Beauty and the Beast or Harry Potter movies)
2. Says, "It all a bit overwhelming, so I'm taking a second to regroup." Refers to Belle seeing the Beast for the first time.
3. We see her in a trendy loft apartment sewing a red gown on a sewing machine. She in trendy loft apartments in real life and sews in some of her movies, especially Little Women
4. Says, "Sewing is one of my favorite things to do when I needle a little time alone. Whether it's a pillow for someone special, or a modern dress for a family member's ball." The ball is the Yule Ball in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire could also refer to the sisters in Little Women
5. Says, "I draw on all that inspires me," as we see her drawing a sketch of a red dress. "As as the fibers intertwine, it's like magic." She draws and "magic" again refers to Harry Potter
6. Says, "Maybe there's something about watching transformations that rings a bell." Her character was BELLE in Beauty and the Beast, and transformations again refers to the Polyjuice potion or the Beast's transformation back into a human
7. We see that what she was actually sewing was a red hooded cloak (like, for Little Red Riding Hood). BELLE wore a cloak like this in Beauty and the Beast
8. Says, "I've never felt more like myself under this mask, but at the same time I can feel myself growing into something brand new. So tonight, this kitty is showing off a new side of herself." New side of herself refers to Emma's role in The Bling Ring, which did show a completely different side of her
9 As for her favorite subject in school, The Kitty says it was English, explaining, "I am such a bookworm, and I used to write my own science fiction books and sell them for quarters." Emma describes herself as a bookworm, and so was her "Hermione" character in the Harry Potter movies.
Again, I am not trying to convince anyone it’s not Jackie, just show that it could be someone else. I would be happy if it is Jackie in the Kitty costume, but I am not convinced she is.
