CR: Michael Becker / FOX Reading Time: 3 minutes
The Masked Singer claims that Season 8 is SAVAGE! Well, it’s only a matter of time before we can judge for ourselves. With a new format this season, the show guarantees more twists and turns are coming to our screens. But you know that the impressive costumes, epic performances, and Ken will be the same as always.
On premiere night, we will meet the Knight, riding in on what looks to be a golden duck? Yeah, The Masked Singer isn’t exactly known for its practicality. But who could the celebrity under the mask be? Let’s recap what we know so far!
Clues on The Masked Singer Season 8
The first clue for the Knight came on The Masked Singer‘s Instagram just a few days before the premiere. The mask-ray revealed a sword in the Knight’s costume! Very fitting for the character, but doesn’t do much to help us decode who the celebrity under the mask could be.
Then, once the season started, we got our first real clue package! In it, he mentions he can’t believe it took him 8 seasons to get on the show, poking fun at Nick Cannon. Knight claims he was Shakespearean trained while tossing a bust of William Shakespeare, that he’s on “multiple walks of fame,” and that he’s done stage, TV, worked with George Lucas, and released albums. We see a solar system appear on screen.
But there are still a lot of things the Knight has never done. He’s “never thrown a chair on national TV…it was two chairs” he says while he knocks over director’s chairs. One of the Men in Black points to a police badge. Knight says he’s “never sold a body part for profit…it was a charitable donation.” He then holds up a cassette with “COVERS” written on it to end the clues.
Popular Guesses for The Masked Singer Knight
When it came time to unmask the Knight, the panelists had to make their predictions. Ken thought it was David Hasselhoff. Jenny was thinking that all the clues pointed to William Shatner. Nicole predicted that the Knight was John Lithgow. And finally, Robin guessed Weird Al was under the mask. Online, basically everyone agreed with Jenny and knew this was William Shatner from the clues and performance.
