‘The Masked Singer’ Season 8 Preview
Hit reality singing competition “The Masked Singer” has announced a new format change and the celebrity guest lineup for season eight — and it includes several “Dancing With the Stars” alumni. FOX made the announcement as part of its Television Critics Association summer press tour day on September 7.
According to the FOX press release, each episode of season eight will “feature several jaw-dropping performances by intricately disguised celebrities, but for the first time ever, only one contestant will move on from each episode.”
It continues:
The studio audience will vote for their favorite, and the singer with the least amount of votes will unmask mid-show! That celebrity will get a front row seat in the “Masked Singer” VIP section to watch the rest of the competition and the second unmasking. For the first time ever, they won’t have to wait to find out what celebrity they were competing against!
Next, the top two singers face off in a Battle Royale performance of the same song. The winner will be crowned the King or Queen of “The Masked Singer” and move on to the next week’s episode against new competition, and the other will unmask! The three finalists left standing after each round will compete in the semi-finals.
The show has also announced its all-new themed episodes, which include: “Vegas Night,” “Comedy Roast,” “Hall Of Fame,” “Muppets Night,” “Andrew Lloyd Webber Night,” “TV Themes,” “’90s Night,” “Thanksgiving” and “Fright Night.”
“The themes will be weaved throughout the performers’ song selections, costumes, celebrity guests, set design… and may even provide clues as to WHO is under the mask!” teases the press release.
This season will boast 22 different celebrities competing in costumes, with new ones introduced every week. The costumes FOX revealed so far include Bride, Avocado, Venus Fly Trap, Sir Bugaboo, Scarecrow, Hedgehog and Mummies. The season eight contestants have earned a combined 32 Grammy nominations, 16 Emmy wins, 8 Gold albums, four Golden Globe nominations, 42 books, 10 Teen Choice Awards, and five Stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
The celebrity guests include composer Lance Bass, Donny Osmond, Danielle Fishel, Jodie Sweetin, Drew Carey, Andrew Lloyd Webber, The Muppets, comedian Will Arnett, actor Leslie Jordan, comedian Joel McHale, actress Tori Spelling, comedian Jon Lovitz, comedian Carrot Top, the Blue Man Group, and singer Sheila E.
“The Masked Singer” season eight returns on Wednesday, September 21 at 8 p.m. Eastern and Pacific times on FOX.
