Here are the six rounds of clues we have so far:
- I’ve spent years by the water. And I had my fair share of battles. Those night vision goggles belong to the army!
- I like the spotlight. But I’ve had more than a few sleepless nights. My answer is to take the show on the road.
- I’m not really into strict routine. I prefer to improvise. I know it’s not the way to make a big hit. But beggars can’t be choosers.
- I’ve never really been the boss. But I have been known to take your breath away. That’s official.
- When asked by the judges if he was a swimmer, mullet’s response was: “I don’t need to get my hair wet anymore.”
Second round:
- I’m just your average Mullet. But I’m OK if you’re OK.
- Someone once told me if you like it you better put a ring on it.
- Sometimes you have your eye on something shiny.
- But it’s not as good as you hope. No matter how far you travel, you can’t leave the real you behind.
- I’m a jack-of-all-trades. I’ve even taken on the Chinese.
- Not as a comedian, but you could call me something close.
- I might be a Mullet, but don’t understand me. My intelligence isn’t artificial and way better than 20.
- I’m the Mullet and I’m beside meself with excitement!
- When put through the ‘mind reader’, Mullet was thinking of a shield (which the judges thought was either Viking or Spartan), and said: “I think a lot about where I come from.”
Third round:
- I might be a mullet, but I’m not hard-headed, like others I know.
- The night sky is so beautiful but I prefer the sunshine.
- I love it like a sibling.
- I’m no superhero.
- Just a fish trying to eke out a living in a hostile environment. There’s no shame in that.
- I was number one once, you know.
- But I wasn’t wearing flannelette at the time. Mullets go in and out of fashion.
- But lucky for me… I’ve got more than one string to me bow. I’m Mullet and I’ve got this competition hook, line and sinker.
Fourth round:
- I might be just a mullet… ..but I’m evolving.
- Do I need a lighthouse?
- Nah. It just keeps me awake.
- You know, I’ve done it all, from Z to A, except D. Maybe I need a new agent.
- I’ve had plans. But they didn’t always work out.
- Sometimes, that’s a good thing. It’s not like I have satellite navigation. Watch out for the beach!
- This fish doesn’t like schools.
- I prefer herds. Look at that!
- At least it’s better than eight. I’m the Mullet, and I’m gonna rock this competition.
Fifth round:
- I’m a mullet. You wouldn’t expect me to sing, but you wouldn’t expect me to teach cats to talk proper, neither.
- I wasn’t always going to be a mullet, you know.
- I was growing up to be a trumpet fish.
- But that’s OK. I really do like a surprise. There are no walls between us here.
- I’ve swum with the biggest sharks in the business.
- And I survived for $8 an hour, plus tips. Now scatter!
- I’m mullet royalty, a duke.
- Or maybe an ambassador. But I’m OK with that.
- I’ve been putting wins in the W column since I was born. Isn’t that right, Hughesy? And there’s gonna be another W tonight.
Sixth round:
- I don’t have unearthly powers like the others, but I’m not here to make up the numbers. Money is often dangled in front of me. I’ve learned to wait and watch.
- I’ve got a lot of tools on my belt. In a former life, not just tools.But I’m more reliable now.
- Us mullets don’t have a lot of secrets. And you can’t pull the wool over our eyes. We’re real strict about that.
- For two lies and a truth, Mullet said: “I came second in a Kevin Rudd look-alike competition, I played a dozen AFL games for Carlton and I threw up on a skydiving instructor while parachuting.”
Seventh round:
- From the moment I became the Mullet, I became the MULLET.
- How much of his performance is me and how much is the Mask? I really don’t know.
- This outlandish but brave mask let me act out in ways that most of us don’t anymore. And a lot of us miss.
- Mullet isn’t just my mask, he’s my mate. I’d love a quiet chat with him after tonight is over but Mullet is never quiet.
Final clue:
- I love to take risks, ever since I was a wee little mullet. Although my risk taking has got me into a bit of trouble in the past, I have matured and calmed down a little. I won’t lie, I still wanna push boundaries. You see, no matter how I change, music is who I am at heart.
