In a first in the history of the program, during the ninth season of “Mask Singer” to be seen from Friday, April 24 in prime time on TF1, a personality will perform in front of the investigators and the spectators without a mask. This person, who will only be wearing makeup, will change makeup and costume every week.
“It was a good idea on paper but … we were very, very scared”
During the press conference for the entertainment show, Anthony Meunier, producer of “Mask Singer,” explained: “We have this huge novelty that is a world first and is quite brilliant! Throughout the adventure, we have a celebrity who will come on stage without a mask to perform in front of Laurent Ruquier, Kev Adams, Chantal Ladesou, and Michaël Youn. In front of the journalists present on this occasion, the one who works for Hervé Hubert revealed: “We have found a personality who will rise to this crazy challenge, because it is really crazy! So I can tell you that the night before, neither she nor I slept. We said to ourselves: ‘In fact, it was a good idea on paper,’ and then we were very, very scared. I almost called TF1 saying: ‘Listen, let’s put a mask back on her because it’s going to be ridiculous’.”
Under the watchful eye of Camille Combal, Anthony Meunier proudly added: “In the end, it works extremely well! The investigators are going crazy, it’s the thing that drives them the most crazy. And even more for Camille, because he is only 5 cm away from the character. This person will change makeup and costume in each episode, representing a very strong renewal.”
After the crowning of Ycare as The Rabbit, note that this year’s cast consists of 23 celebrities, including thirteen main costumes and two international stars. Among the characters, we find the Mummy, the Owl, the Cyborg, the Panther, the Werewolf, the Donkey, the Rock, the Bouquet, the Hedgehog, the Potato, and even the Venetian.
