The Masked Singer is a singing competition guessing game based on the Korean format King of Mask Singer. The performers are celebrities wearing elaborate head to toe costumes to conceal their identities from the host, panelists, audience, and other contestants. 12 celebrities appear on the show with one singer eliminated each week and unmasked. Small hints are given to help viewer play and guess along. The "who-sung-it" is hosted by Nick Cannon and features a star-studded detective playing panel: Ken Jeong, Jenny McCarthy, Nicole Scherzinger and Robin Thicke. The competitors are all "household names" and have a combined 65 Grammy nominations, 16 multi-Platinum albums, 16 Emmy nominations, 9 Broadway shows, 4 Super Bowl titles, and 4 stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The Masked Singer premieres on January 2 on Fox. 甚至都不如中国的。 经过了一段时间的开发后，FOX正式给予美版《蒙面歌王》一个预订，并定于2019年1月播出。嘉宾阵容方面，Nick Cannon担任主持人，《废柴联盟》的 “Chang” Ken Jeong、Jim Carrey 的前女友 Jenny McCarthy、歌手 Nicole Scherzinger 以及Robin Thicke 一同担任节目中负责竞猜以及点评歌手身份的“猜评团”。根据目前放出的预告片来看，参加演出的将会包括来自体育、戏剧、电视等多种领域的嘉宾，赛制和韩版基本一样。
