Third episode of Mask Singer 2024 this Friday evening, with an international star on the program. But we already know a lot about the character, as we do about other masked stars…
The essential
- Mask Singer 2024 arrives at a major stage of the season this Friday, May 17, with the first show dedicated to an international star, hidden under the costume of the Ice Queen. If only a few clues have been revealed, and if the jurors and viewers will have few elements to unmask this lightning guest, many are already banking on the presence of Gloria Gaynor behind the imposing costume.
- The Mask Singer investigation continues for many other characters. Since last week, fans have believed they had unmasked the Scarecrow, with strong suspicions about the actors Patrick Préjean or François-Xavier Demaison (who joined the TF1 team with a series this year). The Hand would hide not one but two stars, with strong suspicions about the Creole Company, namely its singer Clémence Bringtown with another member of the cult group.
- So far, the stars participating in Mask Singer 2024 and eliminated are Jacques Legros (the Hamster), Chantal Goya (the Pop-Corn), Vincent Desagnat (the Pickle) and singer Catherine Lara (the Lemur). Whose turn is it this evening?
Live
20:08 – Third Mask Singer show and an international star on set!
Mask Singer season 6 returns this Friday, May 17 at 9:10 p.m. for a third promising show since an international star, disguised as the Ice Queen, will be on the TF1 set. If some Internet users imagine that Taylor Swift could have taken advantage of her concerts in France to say hello in the show, the theory does not hold for others. For now, the clues are: “The Grammy Awards, that knows her” / she knows Paris and Saint-Tropez well / she’s not Rihanna.
Mask Singer 2024 should see around twenty masked candidates in total this season. At the start of the season, the production revealed a list of twelve initial costumes, each one carrying mystery and originality:
- The Gherkin
- The Scarecrow
- The Hamster
- The leopard
- The Hippopotamus
- The Pearl
- The Dragonfly
- The hand
- The Robot Rabbit
- The wig
- The Lemur
- The Samurai Geisha
- Popcorn
For this new edition of Mask Singer, TF1 has announced stars with impressive pedigrees, some having received distinctions such as the Grammy Awards, the Brit Awards, or, in a completely different genre, the Legion of Honor. The production also promised participants who have sold more than 70 million records and hundreds of millions of viewers around the world. Here are the ones that were unmasked:
- Jacques Legros hid under the Hamster costume
- Chantal Goya hid under the Pop-Corn costume
- Vincent Desagnat played the Pickle
- Catherine Lara was the Lemur
In addition to the regular Mask Singer competitors, the 2024 season is enhanced by the presence of two international stars out of competition, each enjoying a separate evening. In addition, a new twist animates this Mask Singer sequence: a personality will try to infiltrate the game during the season to join the competition, creating an additional element of surprise and intrigue.
For weeks and even before the launch of Mask Singer, the predictions have been going well, skillfully maintained by careful communication, with clues scattered here and there on social networks, in hand-picked media and obviously in the bonuses.
