‘The Masked Singer’ Winners: Which Mystery Musician Won Each Season?
Here’s a complete list of which mystery musician unmasked themselves to reveal the winner at the end of each season of Fox’s The Masked Singer.
Fox’s The Masked Singer wrapped season 10 on Dec. 21, so Billboard is going back through every winning artist who unmasked themselves for the grand reveal.
Hosted by Nick Cannon, the singing competition series premiered on Fox in 2019 as a way for celebrity contestants to perform anonymously in head-to-toe costumes while clues about their real identity are given throughout the competition before they’re unmasked one by one.
Judges-turned-detectives Ken Jeong, Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg, Nicole Scherzinger and Robin Thicke have used clue after clue to get closer to uncovering who’s hiding behind each mask, but the final reveals always leave their jaws on the floor.
Over 10 seasons, a wide variety of celebrities have competed on the reality contest, from sports superstars to comedians to actors and beyond, but when it comes to the winners, they’ve all been musicians first and foremost. The very first winner was hip-hop crooner T-Pain, who left his trademark Auto-Tune behind to show off his pipes au naturel.
Below is a complete list of which mystery musician unmasked themselves to reveal the winner at the end of each season.
