The wait is over. "The Masked Singer" is finally back for season 8.
Not only will each new episode feature a double elimination — that’s right, every episode — but this season will have the most contestants of any season in the history of the show.
Twenty-two talented singers will don an elaborate and custom-made costume and sing their hearts out for the judges and audience.

Here’s how the competition will pan out
During each episode, the studio audience will get a chance to vote for their favorite performer, and the singer with the least amount of votes will be unmasked mid-show. Whoever is eliminated will get a front-row seat in the Masked Singer VIP section to watch the rest of the competition and the second unmasking.
After that, there will be a battle between the top two performers in a "Battle Royale" and the winner will be crowned king or queen and will move on to the next episode.
Contestants will compete until there are only three performers left for the semi-finals.
