It’s been a big week for ‘The Masked Singer’ Season 8, with fans being obsessed with the show and trying to figure out who the singers are. For the NBA world, the craze was extended when a basketball legend was involved. Shaquille O’Neal made an appearance in the monologue of episode one, which can offer clues toward the singer’s identity. 

Some hits were mentioned as part of episode one, ‘I Don’t Wanna Be’ by Gavin DeGraw. “I’m excited for the kick-off of Season 8 because I promise you, this hummingbird knows a thing or two about competition. It’s in my DNA.” 

In further detail, it explains: “I got my start with the help of Shaquille O’Neal and formed a patriotic team that felt like family. Together, we dominated the Super Bowl. My career has been a revelation. But I’m only human. I’m so nervous to step on that stage tonight. But here we go! I guess it’s all or nothing.”

Fans have been waiting for a long time, and now it’s finally here. On September 21, the show’s premiere was broadcast. It has been making a constant splash on social media since then.

As can be seen from the first episode, four singers appeared, including Harp, Hedgehog, Hummingbird, and Knight. Fans are hoping that the mysterious hummingbird masked singer is Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, or another NFL superstar. 

Is Shaquille O’Neal aware of The Hummingbird’s identity?

The actors all performed well in the episode, and fans adored each of them. During the episode, one by one, they must be eliminated so that the king or queen can be crowned. In the first round of eliminations, Knight was eliminated. 

A short time later, Hedgehog was also eliminated. In the first episode of the show, Harp becomes the queen. Continuing her journey to another round will be her next step. Unmasking the singers took place during the show. 

It was none other than William Shatner, who played Knight. When he appeared on the show, fans were shocked. The excitement on social media is evident. Hedgehog’s mask was unmasked, revealing Eric Idle behind it.
