The Masked Singer Fans Knew Book Was Kevin Hart

The reactions from fans of The Masked Singer were overwhelmingly positive. Many, including Cmmetroka and Froggiedoppey123, described it as the "funniest reveal" and the "best reveal" in the show's history. Jacobo_0_ thought it was the second-best reveal, only behind Kermit the Frog. Blackwolfqueen0705 even joked about needing to get on the show like Kevin Hart. Kittyamj1975 found the moment "hilarious" and believed that Kevin Hart was intentionally playing along.

As surprising as it was when the Book was revealed, many fans of The Masked Singer season 11 weren't shocked by his identity. In the comments section of an Instagram post, fans were quick to point out that they knew who was behind the costume. Krystalrosa86 mentioned, "As soon as he started singing, I knew it was him," along with a crying-laughing face emoji. Ariyah_josiah_mommy agreed, saying that Kevin's voice was a dead giveaway. Another fan, Mr.marvel292993, admitted that it was "really obvious" that Book was Kevin, noting his chaotic and unhinged energy.

During Kevin's performance of Ne-Yo's "So Sick," the panelists began to realize who was disguised as the Book. Robin had a big grin on his face, indicating that they had figured it out. It seemed that both the panelists and host Nick Cannon had caught on. It was later revealed that Kevin's appearance on The Masked Singer was actually a prank on Nick. After taking off the costume, Kevin jokingly scolded Nick, saying, "This was a prank, you had no idea!" Nick teased Kevin, calling his performance the "worst" in the show's history, although Kevin insisted that he sang that way on purpose.

The banter between Kevin and Nick on The Masked Singer was entertaining, but it was clear that Kevin was only cast for one episode to prank Nick. It's unlikely he would have stayed masked for multiple episodes, so he took off his costume early. Goldfish, Starfish, Ugly Sweater, and Lovebird were declared safe automatically, which is good for them but unfair to future contestants who won't get to bypass the voting process this season.

Don't forget to tune in to The Masked Singer on Wednesdays at 8 p.m. EST on FOX.

Editor's P/S:

The Masked Singer season 11 premiere delivered an unforgettable moment with the unmasking of Kevin Hart as Book. This hilarious reveal has been met with widespread praise, with fans hailing it as the "funniest" and "best" in the show's history. The reactions on social media were overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing their delight at the unexpected twist.

While Kevin Hart's appearance was undoubtedly a highlight, it also raised questions about the fairness of the competition. Goldfish, Starfish, Ugly Sweater, and Lovebird were automatically declared safe, while future contestants will have to face the public vote. This could create an uneven playing field, as those who perform earlier in the season have a significant advantage. Despite these concerns, The Masked Singer remains a popular and entertaining show that continues to surprise and delight audiences with its unique format.
