There’s no denying 2020 has been quite the year. But now, there’s some much needed escapism in the form of season two of The Masked Singer Australia.

The hotly-anticipated singing show officially returned to our screens this week and fans have wasted no time taking to Twitter to participate in the nation’s favourite guessing game.
With 12 new celebrities decked to the nines in elaborate costumes and cryptic clues aplenty, theories are flying all over the shop as to who the 2020 masked singers just may be.
Filming is currently taking place in COVID-hit Melbourne, which means security is water-tight to ensure a COVIDSafe set and absolutely no leaks.
Celebrity panellist Dave Hughes, who joins the likes of radio star Jackie “O” Henderson, singer Dannii Minogue and comedian Urzila Carlson on the guessing panel, admits he has no idea who any of the talent are but knows the A-list names this year are top-notch.
“I’ve been told the first series did so well that every singer has put their hand up to get involved now, so the quality apparently is really good,” Hughsey has said.
“I think it’s just a really fun format. I’m excited to see who’s under the masks as much as anyone is. On the judging panel, the guessing panel, or whatever you want to call it, we’ve got no idea. I really think the whole ‘who the hell is it?’ is the secret to the show. The secrecy is next-level,” the funnyman added.
During the premiere, retired tennis ace Mark Philippoussis was unveiled as the first celebrity singer masquerading as the echidna!
So as more names are revealed each week, keep scrolling as we round up exactly who every single celebrity is on the 2020 series of The Masked Singer Australia.
