Clock was one of 16 contestants on Season 11 of The Masked Singer, FOX’s reality TV singing competition where celebrities compete against each other in performances while wearing head-to-to costumes and face masks to conceal their identities. Throughout the season, a panel of judges guess who the celebrities are based on their voices and clues provided before and after each performance. Each week, the contestant with the least amount of votes from a studio audience is sent home and takes off their mask to reveal their identity.
The Masked Singer is based on South Korea’s King of the Mask Singer, which follows a similar format. Since the premiere of The King of the Mask Singer in 2015, The Masked Singer has expanded to dozens of countries across the world including France, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Brazil. “It was flypaper TV right from the get-go,” The Masked Singer executive producer Craig Plestis told The Hollywood Reporter in 2019 about why he wanted to produce the show in the United States. “I just knew right away this was a special show. It was unbelievable in its appeal — and the game play, spectacle, family-viewing…[and] it was this huge hit in Asia…. If we do the job here, it should work here.”
The Masked Singer premiered in 2019 with host Nick Cannon and judges Jenny McCarthy, Ken Jeong, Robin Thicke, and Nicole Scherzinger. Scherzinger was the first judge to leave following Season 10 and was replaced in Season 11 by singer Rita Ora, who was also a judge on The Masked Singer UK for five seasons.
Throughout The Masked Singer‘s 10-plus seasons, dozens of celebrities, including LeeAnn Rimes, Jesse McCartney, Gladys Knight, Donny Osmond, and T-Pain, have competed on the show under secret identities and complex costumes. So who is Clock on The Masked Singer Season 11? Keep reading for our best guess to who Clock is on The Masked Singer 2024 and the celebrity we’re convinced will be revealed under the mask.
