When it comes to the true identity of the Russian Dolls on season 5 of The Masked Singer, we’ve been convinced all season long that there’s just one group this could possibly be: Hanson.
Besides the fact that the Dolls’ beautiful harmonies sound just like those of the boy band — which was formed by brothers Isaac, Taylor, and Zac Hanson — the clues also line up really well.
The package also talks a lot about how they were the “hottest toy” around but they were cast aside, and Hanson famously had struggles with their record label and eventually left and created their own, but in later years didn’t see the same level of success as they had in the early days of their career.
One of Cluedle-Doo’s early clues was about Russian Dolls sometimes having “15 replicas” of itself, and between the three brothers, they have a whopping total of 15 kids.
In the third package, they mention having traveled all over and performing at all kinds of venues, and eventually for the president — which fits for the group because they performed at the White House during the Clinton administration.
So, we’re pretty sure the Hanson brothers are behind Russian Dolls, but the real mystery is how many of them have been performing on the show? At one point, it seemed like maybe four different people were on stage, but at other times, it seems like it could just be two .
