We have seen singing competitions where the judges did not know what the singer looked like until they turned their chairs around. There have been other ones with celebrity competitors. And now Fox is combining both of those elements for their show The Masked Singer that debuts in January. Take that American, what is it called again?
Anyways each week, several celebrities will skip hair and makeup and wear a costume from head to head, hiding their true identity host Nick Cannon, the audience and the judges. The judges, Ken Jeong, Jenny McCarthy, Nicole Scherzinger and Robin Thicke, will have to try to guess who they are. Then at the end of the episode, one singer will go home and we will find out who that masked singer is.
Who are these masked singers? According to Fox, “Between all of the celebrity competitors on the show, they’ve amassed 65 Grammy nominations, 16 multi-Platinum albums, 16 Emmy nominations, nine Broadway shows, four stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and four Super Bowl titles.”
Not bad. Too bad we have to wait 5 months to see it. Can’t they switch it up for another show because I want to watch it now!
We know that Ken Jeong is a very funny man and he is also very smart, but did you know he is sexy too? Maybe it was because I saw all of him in The Hangover, but I never realized it until I saw this photo that he posted to promote his appearance on America’s Got Talent tonight as a judge. Now I am judging him, and I am making sounds like the late Eartha Kitt, meow! What about you, kitties?
No actor gets as much of a kick out of making fun of themselves than David Hasselhoff and because of that I cannot wait to see Killing Hasselhoff!
Ken Jeong is a down on his luck nightclub owner who needs money fast. He finds himself in a high stakes celebrity death pool and his celeb is David Hasselhoff. Now, he needs to hoff the Hoff in order to get the winnings. Something that is much easier said than done.
The future Oscar winning movie does not have a release date as of now, so to keep us occupied until then check out Hoff the Record on Netflix.
Seriously, how brilliant does this film look? A classic that we will be watching over and over again.
It is a slow news day because everyone is watching James Comey facing the Senate’s inquisition. There is nothing going on and I need stuff to post. Here is Ken Jeong trying out a man bun on Today today, but it is more like a ponytail that new moms who give their daughters when their hair is long enough to put into one. You know what I am talking about.
When it comes to how he looks with his new hairdo, I kind of like it. What do you think?
As we know Ken Jeong not only plays a doctor on Dr Ken, he is one in real life. About a decade ago his world was rocked when his real life wife was diagnosed with breast cancer. Eight years ago, she was declared cancer free.
Tonight at 8:30p on ABC, Jeong will relive those emotions in an episode he co-wrote. His TV wife Alison gives herself a breast exam in the shower and finds a lump. Ken freaks out and she tells him to calm down because it is making her nervous. He goes into the bathroom, lets out those nerves and goes back into the bedroom to calm down his wife who has breast cancer run in her family.
He tells his wife to call the doctor and schedule an appointment to find out if it is benign or malignant. She is hesitant to make the call, so he dials the number and runs away. Their daughter overhears the discussion and freaks out. But she doesn’t confront her parents.
Alison is told her doctor is on vacation and can’t see her for 2 weeks. Ken tries to make her an appointment for her and hits the same roadblocks. Then the staff at the Welltopia Medical Group, use all of their contacts and get her an appointment the next day. This is a sad scenario that many people, who discover lumps, find themselves in way too often. Not being able to make an appointment.
The next day Alison and Ken goes to the doctor and they find out the lump is solid and that means it could be cancer. He schedules a surgery the next day to perform a biopsy on the lump and tells her that the results won’t be back in for 24 hours.
During the wait, she starts writing a list of where everything is and the things Ken needs to know if it is cancer and she doesn’t beat it. This conversation is so real, you will feel their pain.
Finally, it is time for the results and you will have to tune in to find out what they are. But more importantly for a very powerful episode that deals with something so many families go through. Thinking you have cancer. Do you tell your family? How do you support your family member going through it? What are they thinking? How do you handle waiting for the diagnosis? And so much more. This is such a well done episode, I think everyone should watch it because it is something most of us will go through in some form of the way. It is preparation for the enviable that I hope none of us face, but most likely will.
