The competition is about to heat up on Wednesday’s “The Masked Singer,” as judge Ken Jeong throws a spicy twist into the mix: He’s so sure he knows the identity of Pepper that he might actually hit the “Take It Off” buzzer this time.
“This is not a joke!” Jeong says at the top of TheWrap’s exclusive sneak peek at tonight’s Group A semifinals episode of “The Masked Singer.” In the clip, which you can view above, Jeong is hovering dangerously close to Season 6’s yet-to-be-used mega feature, the “Take It Off” buzzer, which allows a judge who is 100% certain to make a guess that could cut the competitor from “The Masked Singer” stage right then if the judge is right — or cause the panelist to be “significantly punished,” and allow the contestant to remain, if they are wrong.
