Another user shared this line of questioning, tweeting underneath the post: "How's this gonna work? Has it already been filmed? Because nobody can cat fish now if they know who's in the show."
Meanwhile, a third fan of the show said: "I don't see how a celebrity version could work. Considering everyone will know other people are celebrities. Literally, the whole point of it is anyone could be anyone. I'll still watch it, but the mystery is gone already."

The programme will be shown shortly before the third series of The Circle, in which members of the public will be taking part. Both versions of the show were filmed at the beginning of the year, before COVID-19 restrictions were put in place.
The Circle first aired on Channel 4 back in 2018 and proved popular with viewers. The reality show bills itself as a game in social media format in which contestants live in the same apartment but are never allowed to meet. They communicate solely through a specially designed app and can portray themselves how they wish.
Celebrity Circle for Stand Up To Cancer will air on Channel 4 in 2021, followed by the third series of The Circle UK.
