The Masked Singer has released a new teaser for season 7 episode 2, and fans are in for a "bombshell moment." The show premiered its first episode of the season last week on FOX, and fans were introduced to Thingamabob, McTerrier, Cyclops, Firefly and Ram. The premiere was full of unexpected moments, with McTerrier's mask falling off during his performance and Firefly choking during her song and having to be rushed off stage. Luckily, the contestant returned later and blew panelists and fans away with her rendition of «Ain't Nobody» by Chaka Khan. Unfortunately, McTerrier was voted off the show and revealed himself to be pastry chef Duff Goldman.
After the premiere, some fans were confused as a rumored contestant was not eliminated as they expected. During filming for the first episode, news broke that former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani was revealed to be hiding behind one of the costumes. According to reports at the time, panelists Ken Jeong and Robin Thicke both stormed off stage in protest upon his reveal. After his involvement with Donald Trump's attempts to overthrow the 2020 election, many fans were angry to hear that FOX would put such a controversial political figure on The Masked Singer. When he wasn't revealed during the premiere episode, fans assumed the backlash had caused FOX to cut Rudy from the season. However, producers confirmed that the show doesn't necessarily air episodes in the same order they were filmed, so the mayor will still be making an appearance, just in a different episode than expected.
