The biopic Ride Like a Girl, which charts jockey Michelle Payne’s rise to Melbourne Cup victory in 2015, is the highest grossing Australian film of the year to date.
And that can only mean one thing.
That our Michelle is on The Masked Singer. Performing as Monster, obviously. Because the Monster likes horses and so. does. MICHELLE.
The theory has taken over. It’s all anyone is Googling. The people believe in their hearts that Michelle – the first woman in history to win the Melbourne Cup – has decided that she best dress up as a pink monster with blue spots but also one eye and two green horns and sing ‘I Want To Know What Love Is’ by Foreigner.
Watch Michelle winning the Melbourne Cup. Post continues after video.
There are some compelling clues.
We know Monster has had experience with horses and GODDAMMIT what more do we need.
Monster has also dealt with “heavy material” from an early age, which could refer to the loss of Michelle’s mother when she was just six months old.
There has also been a reference to Monster being “first past the post”, and we’re not sure if we’ve mentioned this but Michelle was first past the post that time she won the Melbourne Cup.
Then there was the clue that Monster is “a little bit country and a little bit glam,” which could speak to Michelle’s upbringing in Ballarat, and also her immersion into the world of horse racing, which involves fancy hats and whatnot.
In horse racing you get weighed but not measured and if that dancing ball isn’t Michelle Payne we’ll eat our…
But the clue that has stumped viewers the most refers to the number 31.
You see, the number was highlighted last week, suggesting that perhaps Monster did something significant at the age of 31.
