Girl Group Night

Image
After three great episodes with Group C and three great episodes with Group A, it was time to return to Group B. I was looking forward to this, as not only had it been over a month since we last saw them, but there were also three amazing singers in the group that we were going to hear again. With the theme being Girl Group Night, I was interested to see what songs they would perform, and with the final wildcard contestant of the season joining in this episode, I had high expectations for this episode. The episode began in an entertaining way, as it started with the panelists performing “Wannabe” by Spice Girls. From there, we went to the first performer of the night, who was Miss Cleocatra. In her clue package, she said that she had a gang of great women that shaped her, starting with her own mother, who was a maid, so she didn’t have to be. She then said that the best gift she ever got from her mother was her work ethic, as it made her the hardest hustler in Tinseltown, and now all t

Queen Night

After an amazing return to Group A with Transformers Night last week, I had high expectations for the Group A Finals this week, especially considering the theme of the episode was Queen Night. I have enjoyed all the other episodes that were centered around a specific artist, such as Andrew Lloyd Webber, ABBA, Elton John, and Billy Joel, so I was sure this one would be just as good, as Queen is one of my favorite bands. This along with the fact that I knew we had three amazing singers had me looking forward to the episode. The episode started off with a group performance between all three contestants singing “We Are the Champions,” which I enjoyed as it gave all three contestants a chance to stand out. After this performance, it was time for the first contestant of the night, which was Ugly Sweater. In his clue package, he talked about how he has inspired a variety of artists, from Snoop Dogg to Nirvana, and he even got to work with Tupac. Visual clues included a pool float, a praying h

My History With The Masked Singer

As you can all tell, The Masked Singer is my favorite show that is currently on. However, the way I got to this point has been fascinating, as well as how I stopped liking the show, and then started liking it again. So today, I am going to share with you all my history with the show, and why I ultimately think it’s a great show. The show first premiered in January 2019. I did not watch the first season as it was airing, as I thought that it was the most bizarre concept for a TV show. I learned about what was happening on the show through the internet, and I was fascinated by the celebrities that were appearing on it. I thought it was cool that the show had someone as iconic as Tommy Chong as a contestant in its first season, and I also found it interesting to see all the guesses for the remaining contestants that were on the internet. I was even more amazed to find out that all these guesses were correct and impressed by who some of them were. I thought it was cool that they had celebr

Transformers Night

After an amazing start to the season with all three groups and three amazing episodes with Group C, it was time to return to Group A for Transformers Night! When I first heard about this theme night, I had no idea what was going to happen. I thought that the contestants would perform songs about cars or robots, or songs by the band The Cars. I was also interested to see how the unmaskings would play out, as there were going to be five performances in the episode, one of which was a wildcard contestant they still had to introduce, and two reveals, so I was curious if they were going to do a cliffhanger ending and have the second unmasking at the beginning of the next episode.  The episode started off with Nick coming to the stage by driving in the Optimus Prime truck, parking it outside the studio, and once he was on the stage, Optimus Prime himself walked out too, and even spoke as well, being voiced by his long-time voice actor Peter Cullen, which I found to be very cool. After that,

Paley Center Masked Singer Exhibit

I recently made a blog post about a Masked Singer exhibit that is happening at the Paley Center in New York City, and I have an update regarding this event, which is that I recently went to see it in person! In this post, I will be sharing everything that was there and what it was like.  The exhibit began right when I walked in the building. A few feet from the entrance was a giant screen that played four looping videos, which were every unmasking before Season 10, all the unmaskings in Season 10, and two trailers for Season 11. On both sides of the screen were two costumes. One of them was The Gumball, which is one of the costumes in this current season. Me and my parents were amazed by how big the costume was, though I shouldn’t have been too surprised considering the celebrity that I think is underneath it is six feet tall. It was also cool seeing it right in front of me, as it made me wonder what it was made of, as there were parts to the costume that looked like they were made fro

Shower Anthems Night

Image
After four amazing episodes so far this season, it was going to be interesting to see how a group final would play out this season, especially one with a theme like “Shower Anthems.” When I first found out this was going to be a theme for an episode, I guessed that it was going to be songs that people sing in the shower, which could be any songs at all, and I thought also sounded generic. I was still looking forward to it though, because it was the last three contestants of Group C, and I knew they all sounded great. The episode started with a group performance of The Clock, The Lizard, and The Poodle Moth singing “Shower” by Becky G. I enjoy these group performances, as it gives each of the contestants that episode a chance to stand out together. After that, Nick said that each of the contestants would be performing a song that they like to sing in the shower, which explained the song choices with regards to the theme. He then said that there would be a double unmasking on this episod
