So…anyone else want to admit they’re watching this completely stupid show?
I saw most of the season premiere last night, but missed the first performance by the Butterfly. The characters are The Butterfly, The Egg, The Thingamajig, The Skeleton, The Ladybug, The Tree, The Rottweiler, and Ice Cream.
The judges are the same. Thank Og for Dr. Ken, he still makes me laugh.
So far, I’m kind of liking The Skeleton. He reminds me of Wallace Shawn for some reason, although I don’t think he could possibly be the one. He seems a little too fragile to be dancing and singing in a costume. I also liked Tree. Someone suggested that Tree is Wendy McLendon Covey, and I think that’s a very good possibility!
The Egg was unmasked, and not a moment too soon for me. I was already beyond annoyed with egg jokes. He turned out to be Ninja, a professional video game player :dubious: of whom I have never heard. My stepson knew who he was, though.
Any one else see it, have any guesses?
You cray-cray girl! I saw only the end of the show. I have seen lots of the ends of that show because I flip over to Fox for our local news at 9pm.
I do not understand the premise of the show. I figure they are guessing who the semi-famous people is, under the mask. To what end? And those costumes are just creepy. Gah!
I haven’t seen it, but I’m assuming none of the singers are named Ozzy. How long do you think he could get away with lumbering around a stage, with his unique voice, and dressed as a tree?
Did the judges continue to guess A-list celebrities, as if one of the singers is going to be Beyonce or something?
He was Ice Cream. Egg was Olympic ice skater and Tara Lipinski BFF Johnny Weir. The way he moves, or even stands, is so distinct that even two of judges were able to guess it.
:smack: That’s how poor my memory is. Thanks!
I’d rather not watch the show, but I am curious who the masked singers are, so please update the thread when folks get unmasked.
Thanks!

I have a weird relationship with the show. I don’t watch it. I find there is way too much filler. But I don’t miss seeing the highlights and reveals the next day.
I am watching, I love this show. I saw that mj of mjsbigblog guessed that the Rottweiler is Chris Daughtry (American Idol finalist/successful rock band) and she is a longtime AI commentator so I think that’s likely who it is. I don’t have any other guesses.
I DVR the show and start it halfway through, so I can skip past Jenny McCarthy’s incredibly stupid prattle and fluff.
Johnny Weir was a given. I had no idea who Ninja was, so that was a shrug moment.
I was not liking the autotuned of the voices during the questions. Skeleton has too obvious of a voice to be covered by autotuned. I think it’s Paul Shafer. Tree, I think is Ana Gasteyer. Maybe.
I think the Skeleton is Dan Akroyd.
In the clues video he mentioned a “wild & crazy” time, just like his old SNL character, and the 2nd fiddle comment I think was a nod to The Blues Brothers with John Belushi.
The rumor around here is that Victor Oladipo of the Pacers is Thingamagig. He does sing… said he has to keep up with the pace (Pacers)… references to 4 (his number).
I love this show except for Jenny McCarthy.
I have a worse record for guessing correctly than Ken, though.
But despite being an idiot she looked good naked when she was younger. What better qualifications could you ask for?
As a Pacers fan, I find this idea to be compelling. (If he’s any good.)
Well, I missed half the show again! Anyway, the costumes were Black Widow, Leopard, Flamingo, and Panda.
Flamingo seemed pretty talented, Panda did not. Oh, and Jenny McCarthy a shrill idiot (in case you were wondering).
Our guess for Panda was Drew Carey, and I wish we’d been right because I think he’d be great on this show! However, it was Laila Ali, Muhammed Ali’s daughter. I guess she’s a legit celebrity, just not one I care about. I don’t know any sports players.
Adding to my former guesses, wife and I are both convinced that the Leopard is Seal.
I refuse to support anything that encourages Jenny McCarthy to continue existing.
Also, didn’t he start a vodka company called Skull some years back? The only thing is, The Skeleton looks like someone who is on the small side, IIRC. I can’t wait to watch ep 2 Hulu.
Also also, is Wahlburg a producer on this show or something? Because I really cannot imagine how anyone would think JM could add value to this show. She’s beyond vapid and the stoopid far outweighs any physical attributes (which at this point all look pretty damn fake anyway).
just want to point out that neither the lady bug based on waist size nor the tree based on leg size are tiny women. That is really the only points of measurement visible. The tree moved well in her costume playing up the swingy aspect of the skirt, the ladybug was so stiffly corseted she did not move well or does not dance well in the first place.
I found it interesting where each character held the microphone when singing and talking shoulder height and head height can be increased by the costume. The thingamajig while tall is not as tall as the costume appears based on where the microphone was held. Nick cannon is 6’0" so one suggestion has been Victor Oladipo who is 6’4" and based on microphone heights would be right.
