Robin said the rest of his JLS bandmates did not know that he joined The Masked Singer although he revealed in an interview with The Sun that his bandmates were suspicious and were texting him about it.
The clues for Robin were explained after the reveal. Aston said that the football stuff was a reference to his journey as a football player in secondary school and that he started singing only when he was 16 or 17. His clue song “Rockin’ Robin” was his song in the talent show Stars in Their Eyes, where he appeared as Michael Jackson. The 17 million people he performed in front of was because of the Queen’s Jubilee. The UFO poster was a reference to JLS originally being called “UFO”. “This Robin is known for being blue” was a clue to each member of JLS having a colour – Aston’s was blue. JLS performed in Albert Square for “Children in Need” hence the sign in his clue VT. “My name fits like a glove” was a hint to Aston’s surname Merrygold sounding like a Marigold. The swingball in his clue VT was a nod to JLS standing for “Jack the Lad Swing.”
