Exciting Sneak Peek: Jenny McCarthy Promises Jaw-Dropping Surprise on ‘The Masked Singer’ Season 11 Premiere

Jenny McCarthy is getting fans of The Masked Singer hyped up for an amazing season 11 premiere.

“I am really thrilled, and I know we always say this every season, but I can't wait for you all to see the first episode because the reveal is huge,” McCarthy, 51, shared exclusively with We on Monday, March 4, as she promoted the FOX show. “I mean, it’s massive. It’s like, on a whole other level.”

McCarthy has been a panelist on The Masked Singer since it first aired in 2019. She mentioned that a high-profile contestant appeared on the show, which made her hopeful that someone like Beyoncé might join in the future due to the contestant's immense star power.

She confessed that she couldn't accurately guess the identity of the star because she initially thought they were too famous to participate in the show.

McCarthy couldn't believe it when a huge celebrity appeared on the show in the first episode of the season. It totally blew her mind.

The singing competition involves celebrities singing in elaborate costumes to hide their identities. McCarthy and the other panelists have to figure out who the singers are by using clues given throughout the season.

Season 11 will see a change on the panel, with Rita Ora replacing Nicole Scherzinger. Scherzinger stepped away to star in Sunset Boulevard. McCarthy mentioned that Ora, aged 33, was a great addition to the show, despite having big shoes to fill after Scherzinger, who is 45.

McCarthy expressed that the chemistry within the panel is strong like a family, so it was uncertain how Ora would fit in. However, McCarthy found Ora to be perfect for the role. Ora had previous experience on the UK version of the show, so she knew how to play the game. McCarthy praised Ora for her sense of humor, intelligence, and singing abilities. They both supported each other during the show, forming a strong bond. McCarthy emphasized the importance of women supporting each other, stating, "Us sisters got to stick together."

McCarthy appreciates the camaraderie she shares with her costars, but she also has a strong competitive streak when it comes to working with them.

In her own words, she humorously admitted, "They would all tell you the same thing, that Jenny is psychotic in terms of competition. I act like it’s the Olympics, and for me it is. I’m the weirdo that goes home after taping and I lay there. Do you remember the movie Beautiful Mind when he’s got everything on the wall? That is what I am doing every night, I’m literally putting clues together, so by the time I go back I’m like, ‘I think I have an idea.’"

Ken Jeong and Robin Thicke complete the panel with McCarthy and Ora. McCarthy believes that the show has improved over time thanks to the lively discussions among the panelists.

"We enjoy teasing each other and have a playful chemistry like a family," she mentioned. "It's all in good fun when I playfully call Ken a Bozo or make fun of Robin's guesses."

The new season of The Masked Singer, Season 11, will debut on FOX on Wednesday, March 6, at 8 p.m. ET.
