Speculations About Can of Worms
Although Can of Worms survived the elimination round, speculation about the identity of the performer has intensified. Viewers on social media are increasingly convinced that a member of the British pop group JLS is behind the costume.
- One viewer suggested, “I definitely think Can of Worms is one of the JLS guys. I’m going with JB.”
