Drake Bell, born June 27, 1986, is an actor and singer, best known for his roles as a child star on Nickelodeon series like The Amanda Show and Drake & Josh. He began his career at just five years old with commercials and TV appearances before becoming involved with Nickelodeon. Bell also voiced characters on shows like The Fairly OddParents and Ultimate Spider-Man on Disney XD.
In addition to acting, Drake has pursued a music career, releasing three albums as a solo artist and building a massive fanbase in Latin America. On November 20, it was revealed that he was a participant on Fox’s The Masked Singer. Bell, disguised as the “Ice King,” was unmasked after being eliminated in Episode 8, during which he performed a cover of Miley Cyrus’s “Midnight Sky” for Miley Cyrus Night. Among the panelists, only Jenny McCarthy correctly guessed that Bell was behind the mask.
Drake has undergone many changes since his early years as a child actor. See photos of the star throughout the years here.
