The Masked Singer Season 14: Ozzy Osbourne Tribute, a Shock Unmasking, and Everything We Know
The Masked Singer Season 14 premieres Jan. 7 with a tribute to the late Ozzy Osbourne and a major twist: contestant Kylie Cantrall has already unmasked herself.
The Masked Singer just broke its biggest rule—before the season even started. For the first time ever, a contestant has unmasked themselves ahead of the premiere, setting the stage for what Fox promises will be a massive Season 14. After its longest-ever hiatus, the zany competition is returning with new costumes, star-studded theme nights, and an unprecedented twist.
Premiere Date and New Costumes
According to Entertainment Weekly, the new season of The Masked Singer kicks off with a special two-hour premiere on Wednesday, Jan. 7, at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Fox. Host Nick Cannon returns, along with the full panel of Ken Jeong, Robin Thicke, Jenny McCarthy-Wahlberg, and Rita Ora.
A total of 18 new costumes will grace the stage this season, including Eggplant, Queen Corgi, Galaxy Girl, and Pugcasso. Fox has teased that this group of contestants boasts some serious accolades, with combined totals of 94 million records sold, 21 platinum singles, and 3 Emmy wins.
Tributes, Twists, and Terrors
This season's theme nights are some of the biggest yet. A standout episode will be 'Ozzfest,' a musical tribute to the legendary rocker Ozzy Osbourne, who passed away in July at age 76. His daughter, Kelly Osbourne (formerly 'Ladybug' in season 2), is set to appear to honor her father. Other themes include nights celebrating Star Trek's 60th anniversary, The Twilight Saga, and the Spice Girls.
For a dose of fright, a 'Fear Night' episode will feature Fear Factor host Johnny Knoxville, who'll deliver clues alongside a few creepy crawlies.
The Unprecedented Self-Unmasking
The season's biggest shocker came on Dec. 10, when singer and Descendants star Kylie Cantrall revealed on her Instagram that she is a contestant. Cantrall announced she'll be sharing her behind-the-scenes strategy to fool the panel, including her onscreen mom, Rita Ora. Which costume she's wearing remains a secret until the premiere, adding a new layer of mystery to the show.
