The Masked Singer: Rudy Giuliani Identity Revealed
3 min read
Before the new season of The Masked Singer Rudy Giuliani ever began. The show was dogged by controversy over one particular casting choice. Frog Prince, Queen Cobra, Space Bunny, Baby Mammoth, and Jack in the Box were among the last five candidates. To perform on Wednesday’s new Masked Singer. After all of the performances, it was time for the audience to vote. And Jack in the Box was voted off after a particularly lacklustre rendition. Of “Bad to the Bone” by George Thorogood and the Destroyers.
The reveal of Rudy Giuliani as Jack in the Box was met with mixed reactions?
Robin Thicke, Jenny McCarthy, Ken Jeong, and Nicole Scherzinger were among the celebrity detectives who offered their final guesses. No one, however, came close to guessing Jack in the Box’s true identity. After the typical “Take it off” chant ing, Jack in the Box revealed himself to be none other than Rudy Giuliani, former New York Mayor and Trump lawyer. To say the least, the reaction to the reveal was mixed. McCarthy and Scherzinger tried to remain friendly while Thicke appeared surprised and unsure. The most remarkable reaction came from the ever-joking Jeong, who was stunned into silence.
Was the unmasking a surprise for everyone?
Following the unmasking, instead of his customary banter, Jeong crossed his arms and stayed nearly completely silent. Robert Duvall, Joe Pesci, Elon Musk, and Al Roker were among the panel’s guesses prior to the reveal. “Is it Robert Duvall?” Scherzinger quietly asked a stone-faced Jeong after the unmasking. “No, that’s not Robert Duvall,” Jeong answered quietly. “With all of the controversies that are surrounding you right now, I think it surprises us all that you’re here on The Masked Singer,” remarked host Nick Cannon of Giuliani’s appearance on the show.
Rudy Giuliani’s encore performance made McCarthy and Scherzinger to dance and laugh
After the unmasking, Jeong and Thicke “immediately departed the stage in protest,” according to Deadline, which was the first to publish the incident at the time. After Jeong and Thicke left, fellow judges Jenny McCarthy and Nicole Scherzinger remained onstage and joked with Giuliani, according to the outlet. According to Deadline, the two male judges soon returned. Thicke “really followed [Ken] since he and Ken are very close friends and he wanted to check on him,” according to reports. Thicke’s exit from the stage was not shown in the episode, but the singer was nowhere to be seen after Jeong’s departure, as McCarthy and Scherzinger danced and laughed at Rudy Giuliani’s encore performance. The unmasking and subsequent stories of Jeong’s irritated reaction to the reveal have elicited no public response from the judges or the show.
