Masked Singer 2022 LIVE – Firefly CHOKES & McTerrier is eliminated after mask falls of mid-show

Who is Thingamabob, continued

Numerous TV sleuths noticed the resemblance between Thingamabob and season two participant, Thingamajig – who was uncovered as NBA player Victor Oladipo.

The comparison between the two led some fans to think that Thingamabob might be another athlete.

After The Masked Singer released teasers on their official YouTube channel, reality television sleuths took to the show’s social media pages to discuss who the disguised competitor might be.

One fan said on YouTube: “Please everyone read this cause I think I might be on to something. This is 100% One of the Jonas Brothers (probably Kevin) and let me tell you why.”

Who is Thingamabob on The Masked Singer season 7?

Ahead of the broadcast of their seventh season, The Masked Singer released information regarding the costumes the contestants are using as their disguises.

One of the competitors announced was the Thingamabob – which appears to be a monster and bat hybrid costume.

Entertainment Weekly provided the descriptive bio: “With its giant green ears that are reminiscent of a bat’s and its wide toothy grin, really the only thing that’s ‘cuddly’ about this character is its fur.”

Adding: “which is bright green (like its distant cousin, Thingamajig!) and is partially covered by a disco ball-like one piece.”

Who is Hydra?

There could be more than one person inside the costume due to its large size. This is the first season where the show dips into Greek mythology.

Hydra will be facing off against Team Bad, Team Good and Team Cuddly.

The three-headed beast will join the latter team joining Cyclops, Ram, Queen Cobra, and Jack in the Box.

Team Good consists of Firefly, McTerrier, Prince, and Ringmaster. Team Cuddly consists of Thingamabob, Lemur, Space Bunny, and Baby Mammoth.

Now that the seventh season is vastly approaching, fans can look forward to new unique costumes and surprise contestants.

Who is Ringmaster?

Ahead of the broadcast of their seventh season, The Masked Singer released information regarding the costumes the contestants are using as their disguises.

One of the competitors announced was Ringmaster – a circus-clad animal complete with a top hat and matador costume to match.

Entertainment Weekly provided the descriptive bio: “Cue the Britney Spears’ Circus references (and similar guesses from the judges).”

“With its large top hat, thickly-lined eyes, and tent dress, this costume is one of the most dramatic — dare we say high-wire? – yet seen on The Masked Singer.”

Adding: “With a get-up like that, you know Ringmaster has to command the stage this season.”

Who is Rudy Giuliani?

Born May 28, 1944, in New York, New York, Rudy Giuliani, is known as an American politician and attorney who famously served as the Mayor of New York City from 1994 to 2001.

What happened during the filming of The Masked Singer Season 7?

Even though Season 7 of The Masked Singer has yet to premiere, it was revealed that Rudy Giuliani is one of the first contestants that get sent home.

According to Deadline, judges Ken Jeong and Robin Thicke reportedly walked off the stage in protest after Rudy Giuliani was unmasked during the taping of the show Season 7.

At this time, it remains unclear what costume Giuliani will appear in or what songs he will perform on this upcoming season.

How much do The Masked Singer judges get paid, continued

FOX tends to remain extremely tight-lipped when it comes to salaries and payments, but there are some estimates based on the net worths of each judge.

According to Cosmopolitan, judges on the UK version of The Masked Singer get paid between $250K-500K. If the payment is similar for American judges, they have probably earned between $1.25million and $2.5million for their time on the show.

Celebrity Net Worth has host Nick Cannon’s salary listed as $5million – but it remains unclear if that’s his annual salary or his total salary over the last few years.

How much do The Masked Singer judges get paid?

The judges of The Masked Singer include: Nicole Scherzinger, Jenny McCarthy, Robin Thicke and Ken Jeong.

Nick Cannon is the series host, and has been since the show’s conception in 2019.

There have been instances of guest judges, such as the recurring role of Joel McHale.

Niecy Nash was the guest host for a few episodes when Nick Cannon was out sick with COVID-19.

How much do Masked Singer contestants get paid?

According to Bustle, contestants on The Masked Singer likely do not get paid at all.

The outlet states the show itself is “just for fun.”

“Each person behind the masks is a celebrity of some kind who presumably has plenty of money and opportunities, so it wouldn’t make sense to give them even more,” Bustle continued.

Every season, the winner of The Masked Singer earns a trophy with a mask on it, while the judge who guessed correctly the most amount of times earns the Golden Ear trophy.

There is apparently no cash prize on the show, and no specific option to donate to a charity.
