Spoiler alert: If you haven’t seen Season 4, Episode 8 of “The Muscat Singer” airing on Fox on November 18, don’t read on.
“The Mas Mas Singer” went on Wednesday night with a double-edged sword, knocking down two contestants in the process: basketball star Lonzo Ball, who came in the guise of “Whatma ma Kalit” and viral sensation “D”. Elvis “Francois, the so-called” singing surgeon “who became famous in the early days of the COVID-19 epidemic. (See Unmaxings below.)
Ken Jiong, a huge basketball fan, was the only panelist to come out with what is known as the What’s Up.
The rest of the panel was also overwhelmed by the names of the game: Robin Thikke chose Michael Strath; Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg’s guess was Devin Booker; While Nicole Scherzinger guessed Carmelo Anthony. Guest panelist Cheryl Hines felt it was her “curb your spirits” co-star J.B. Is smooth.
And as a teammate, Bale performed “Lean Back” from the Terror Squad’s feat. Fat JJ and Remy Ma. The bonus hint came out that “Wochani has already won the championship.” The former Laker, now a player with the New Orleans Pelicans, won the National High School Championship in 2016 as a senior at Chino Hills High School.
“I hope my swag will take me,” said Ball, as whatmam kalit, in the key package. “I’ve always tried to do more than expected.” The disguised friend, known as a high school teacher and mentor, added: “He had a lot of head on his shoulders, a lot of focus and hard work.”
Ball’s previous performances included “I Want” by Ski-Law and “Money Maker” by Ludacris (feat of Farrell Williams).
Speaking of the serpent, Scherzinger said that Dr. Elvis was, in part because he performed with her last spring at You Fox’s “After the Mask” recap show. Jeong thought he was David Diggs. McCarthy Wahlberg went with TE Diggs. Both Thick and Hines thought he was Donald Fasan (“scrubs”).
Francois told Variety that “The Masked Singer” approached him to appear as a contestant after his “After the Mask” appearance.
“At first I didn’t think that was possible with a busy hospital schedule. But somehow, I believe it was meant to be and it will end up working,” he said. “I obviously have to stay straight with my chairman and tell him where I’m going and get him to sign the NDA.”
Francois who works with co-residents, fellows and nurses were immediately suspicious of his absence. “I am not a good liar. I told him I would go to Los Angeles for a few weeks at the health convention, “he said. “Because whoever has the brains knows that all health conferences have been postponed.”
Since the “masked singer” returned this fall, Francois said he was listening to friends, texting them about their doubts. “He’s crazy, because for the last few months, at any time anyone starts a conversation with those words,‘ This is a weird voice, ’he always comes up with‘ Masked Singer ’.
Speaking of doing the show during the epidemic, Francois said it was facilitated by the show’s security regiment. “It’s one of my initial fears about going and doing this, taking time,” he said. “But I would say that it was incredible to know what the CDC guidelines personally and government officials recommend, and what we are doing to reduce the spread of covid-1 of hospital staff, to test one person every day. is coming. , Quarantining rooms, waiting for quick results before coming on set. Everyone maintains a social distance guide.
“Still finding a way to deliver a product on television that would make people laugh and make people happy, but watching safely and effectively was really special.”
Despite the brush with fame, Francois said he would not quit his day job.
“Ever since I was seven years old, I’ve always wanted to be a spine surgeon,” he said. I can never see myself giving up that passion. But music is something that beats for me and it’s not something I’ll ever stop. So the ideal situation is to find a way to keep sharing both music and medicine. Currently out of my crazy work schedule, I’m trying to write some original music and so hopefully I can share it with people soon. “
Dr. Elvis, as the serpent, sang “Cool” by the Jonas Brothers for his final performance. In previous episodes he also sang “I am (500 miles)” by the announcer and “The Bones” by Maren Morris.
“I went from having spinal surgery on Friday to Monday, I’m working on dance choreography and live singing.” “So it was definitely fish from the water experience.”
New this season, the show’s panelists are also vying for the “Golden Year” trophy based on their first impressions of each masked performer – and going into the episode, McCarthy Wahlberg led with three, while Thick and Scherzinger had two points, and Jeong’s zero so far. Was.
