Is Faith Evans Making A Comeback On This Reality TV Show?

Plenty of fans think that Faith Evans is secretly planning on a comeback by performing on "The Masked Singer."
Faith Evans, born Faith Renée Jordan, has a career spanning decades. Some of her hit albums include "Faith" in 1995, "Keep the Faith" in 1998, "Faithfully" in 2001, "The First Lady" in 2005. She also appeared on "R&B Divas: Atlanta" from 2012-2014.
Evans was famously married to The Notorious B.I.G. from 1994-1997 until he passed away on March 9. Born Christopher George Latore Wallace and also known as Biggie Smalls, he is still widely regarded as one of the greatest rappers of all time.
Evans was married to Todd Russaw from 1998-2011 and married Stevie J in 2018.
Putting the clues of Evans' life together has led fans to believe that "The Masked Singer" performer known as Skunk has to be the legendary R&B artist Faith Evans.

Some of "The Masked Singer" clues over the show's past six seasons have ranged from obvious to downright confusing. However, most of the clues easily connect the Skunk to Faith Evans.
In the first episode of season six, the video package makes a reference to Seoul on a train. Many fans interpreted that to mean "Soul Train," who presented Evans with a lifetime achievement in 2018.
In episode six, Skunk said that she regretted that she missed an opportunity with a loved one. In her best-selling book "Keep the Faith: A Memoir," Evans wrote about her troubled relationship with Wallace in the weeks leading up to his passing.
Another clue from the episode was a pager showing the numbers "607" which used to be a shorthand way of telling someone "I miss you." Faith collaborated with DMX on a song called "I Miss You" in 2001.
Fans Think They Have This Case Cracked

Although "The Masked Singer" finale is fast approaching, fans can't help but take to social media to confirm their suspicions that Skunk has to be Faith Evans.
"The “SKUNK” is FAITH EVANS! I can hear her tone, when she talks!" one fan wrote.
"The 'skunk' on the Masked singer is definitely Faith Evans and she is slaying!!!! Omg the Sam smith 'Diamonds' joint in part 1 and 'This is a man’s world' in part 2 I’m watching on Hulu and i know Whitney is in paradise," said another fan.
Another fan took a moment to throw some shade at the judges, tweeting, "#SkunkMask aka Faith Evans, could literally sing I'll Be Missing You and the judges would say 'Normani? Doja Cat? No, Jennifer Lawrence!' And they would be serious!!!"
"Honey... I’m telling you right now, the skunk on masked singer is Faith Evans," said another fan. "Don’t play with me."
Although fans are sure that Faith Evans is Skunk, they will just have to wait until she is unmasked to know for sure. And, given her impressive singing talent, that might take a while!
"The Masked Singer" airs Wednesday nights at 8 PM EST on Fox.
