‘Masked Singer’ Castoff Reveals ‘Cryptic’ Behind-the-Scenes Secrets

Warning: This story contains spoilers from the Wednesday, April 29, episode of The Masked Singer.

It’s not time for take-off — instead, it was time to take it off for the astronaut on the latest episode of The Masked Singer. At the end of Wednesday’s episode, the astronaut had to remove his mask and reveal his identity: country superstar Hunter Hayes!

“In my music, I talk a lot about flying and I think music is flying, so I went with the astronaut,” the “Heartbreak” singer, 28, told Us Weekly exclusively about his costume choice. “I’m working on a three-part album trilogy and the second one is the unknown, so into the unknown and flying — it was a beautiful, poetic way of speaking to that.”

During his time competing, Hayes couldn’t have had more fun — and made a lot of friends too.

“I was so inspired by JoJo Siwa’s energy and she’s had such a wild career and such a great spirit and I can’t wait to see what’s next for her,” he said, before admitting that he’s rooting for the Turtle to win it all. “We just got to be friends even in the masks. I think our connection was that it didn’t feel like a competition. It was about being there in the performance and Turtle and I were put in these competitive situations, but we weren’t out to get each other. We really both just love what we do and we got along so great!”

Hayes also revealed that it’s not easy to make connections with the other singers, despite filming together.

“Everything was so wild and strange. It’s all weird! Every step of it is bizarre, even if you want to make friends with other cast members, you can’t until you leave the show,” the five-time Grammy nominee said. “I never saw the stage or any of the spaces I worked in, until the last day. It was so strange.”

The “weirdest thing” about filming the show was the environment behind the scenes.

“I’m standing backstage with the super nine — this 9-foot tall tiger and all these other characters. I wanted to talk to them, but couldn’t,” he said. “There’s a lot of cryptic code sign language and fist bumps. Those were our interactions!”

The Masked Singer airs on Fox Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET.

NewsColony Volunteers book hotel room for homeless man with SingapoRediscovers vouchers © The Independent Singapore Singapore — A group of volunteers from the Mummy Yummy Singapore welfare organisation donated their SingapoRediscovers Vouchers to book a hotel room for a homeless man. The man, who was identified as Jayden, did not have a place to live while waiting for the Housing Board (HDB) to allocate him a rental flat. In a Facebook post on Mummy Yummy Singapore’s page on Wednesday (Dec 16), the volunteers said: “We used our $100 Rediscover Singapore vouchers to redeem hotel stay for him and successfully booked 9 days worth of stay at 3 days per voucher.” They added that they were unable to book a longer stay because of higher hotel rates over Christmas and New Year. The volunteers hoped that they would be able to bridge Jayden’s stay until he got a flat. “Thanks our government for giving us these vouchers which in return we can put them to good use for people in need,” th...

Disabled people are still vulnerable, even as COVID-19 normalizes their ‘special’ needs

Disabled people are still vulnerable, even as COVID-19 normalizes their ‘special’ needs NewsColony Perhaps it’s appropriate that public notices of the COVID-19 crisis began as an ableist cruelty. Health officials assured the nation that only the elderly and those with chronic health conditions would be seriously affected; most Americans (i.e., the normal people) would have only mild symptoms and be fine. x A friendly reminder: people who will be high-risk patients if we get coronavirus can hear you when you reassure everyone we’re the only ones who might die. — Alexandra Brodsky (@azbrodsky) February 29, 2020 Soon after the announcement of those assurances, the likelihood of high-risk people surviving was further limited by the people more likely to be fine. Shopping frenzies cleared stores of essential supplies needed everyday by many disabled people, like thermometers, hand wipes, masks, and IV infusion supplies. Accustomed to their needs ...
