Masked merriment: ‘The Masked Singer’ presents holiday sing-along
Christmas with a … cow? Maybe. But only if they don’t get voted out. “The Masked Singer” puts holiday cheer center stage, as a new edition of “The Masked Singer Holiday Special” debuts on a special night, Tuesday, Dec. 12, on Fox.
“Holiday splendor and masked merriment collide,” the network promises. “In this beloved yuletide special featuring all-new jaw-dropping surprise performances from Season 10 contestants, spectacular sing-along fun from Masked Singer alumni and ‘The Masked Singer’ carolers: Nick Cannon [“Celebrity Prank Wars”], Jenny Mccarthy-wahlberg [“Two and a Half Men”], Ken Jeong [“Community”], Robin Thicke [“Paula,” 2014] and Nicole Scherzinger [“Killer Love,” 2011]. Celebrate the holidays with a look back at the best moments from the milestone 10th season, all leading into the can’tmiss final two episodes!”
During the special, Season 10’s remaining contestants (still masked) will perform a slate of holiday songs, with each act including some allnew animated clues that just might give away the singer’s identity. Meanwhile, the already unmasked celebrities will join in on the holiday fun, together performing their favorite festive tunes.
While this year’s upcoming performances are being kept under wraps, previous “Masked
Singer” holiday events saw Crocodile (Backstreet Boys member Nick Carter, “Now or Never,” 2002) singing “Silent Night,” the Sun (Leann Rimes, “Blue,” 1996) singing “Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree” and Mushroom (Aloe Blacc, “Good Things,” 2010) performing “The Christmas Song.” Even panelist Ken Jeong got in the spirit of the season, hopping on stage to energetically sing “The Little Drummer Boy” during 2020’s sing-along event.
So far this season, “The Masked Singer” has revealed: Hibiscus as Luann de Lesseps (“Real Housewives of New York City”), Hawk as Tyler Posey (“Teen Wolf”), The Royal Hen as tennis player Billie Jean King, the Pickle as Michael Rapaport (“Atypical”), Tom Sandoval (“Vanderpump Rules”) as Diver, Anthony Anderson (“Black-ish”) as Rubber Ducky, Anonymouse as Demi Lovato (“Sonny with a Chance”) and more, with the remaining contestants still to be revealed in the season’s last two episodes — meaning this may just be the fans’ last chance to guess who stands behind the remaining masks.
Sing along with your holiday favorites and try your best to guess who’s who, as “The Masked Singer Holiday Sing-along” returns Tuesday, Dec. 12, on Fox.
