What’s Next for The Masked Singer?
The Masked Singer team is likely already planning costumes and filming seasons for 2024 after continuing its reign as one of the most popular competition reality series on television. [8]
Host Nick Cannon recently signed a long term deal to remain the face of the hit Fox series through Season 6, confirming at least two more celebrity filled seasons of elaborate masks and viral unmasking moments. [9]
Judges Ken Jeong and Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg will also likely return, along with comedian Nicole Scherzinger, to take their signature wild guesses at the celebrities hiding behind the masks. Following Amber Riley’s unmasking, McCarthy Wahlberg already expressed hopes that her Glee co-star Lea Michele would compete in a future season. [10]
While the format has largely remained the same over 10 seasons, producers continue to outdo themselves with more ornate costumes and breath-taking performances. Fans can likely expect even more spectacular masks and talent in upcoming seasons of television’s favorite guessing game.
