The Masked Singer Renewed by FOX

FOX is renewing the new celebrity competition series The Masked Singer, which has garnered more than 17 million multiplatform viewers to date.

Based on an international hit, The Masked Singer features celebrities facing off against one another with a major twist: each singer is shrouded from head to toe in an elaborate costume, complete with a full face mask to conceal his or her identity.

The series delivered FOX’s most-watched unscripted debut in 11 years, while its 3.6 million viewers across Hulu and FOX NOW mark the network’s most-streamed episode ever.

“The response to The Masked Singer has been fantastic and we are thrilled to bring it back for another season,” said Rob Wade, president of alternative entertainment and specials at Fox Broadcasting Company. “I am so happy to see a singing Peacock burst into pop culture! The Masked Singer is unique, bold, original and embraces the DNA of all the best FOX unscripted shows. We look forward to season two being even more fun, weird and wonderful than the first.”
