OK people! The greatest competition show ever, The Masked Singer on Fox, is finally back for Season 2. And since the show is a bit of an obsession here at BUST HQ, you KNOW we have thoughts!
- We were Egg-cited to learn the true identity of the Egg! He's great.
- Ice Cream is not someone we're familiar with so we felt nothing when he was unmasked. Note to producers, the game is more fun when the competitors are actually famous.
- We think the Tree is Ronnie Spector and we are HERE FOR THIS!!!
- We don't know who the Rottweiler is but he can get it.
- We think the Ladybug is possibly Jamie Lynn Spears or Tiffany Trump, but it's still too early to tell.
- We think Thingamajig is Dennis Rodman, and if so, WOW!
- We agree with Dr. Ken that Skeleton is probably Martin Short, but could he also be Steve Martin? He's an elder SNL alum for sure.
- We predict that the Butterfly will make it all the way to the end. But who is she???? Not sure yet, but Fantasia isn't a bad guess. Or could she be J-Hud?
Who do you think is behind the masks so far???
