The Masked Singer is possibly the oddest idea for a singing competition. The idea is that a panel have to guess who the singer in an OTT, cartoon-y costume is. Imagine the shock of the judges when the identity of the ‘Chameleon’ was revealed as the front-man of one of the most successful rock bands of the 00s.

Judges thought this may be a sportsman or possible movie star in disguise. This was also surprising to fans as The Darkness have just come off the back of a UK tour promoting their latest album Easter Is Cancelled. Even so, eagle-eared fans spotted the rock star’s vocal abilities early on.
Check out The Darkness’ latest video ‘In Another Life‘ below, see if you can see it now:
The Masked Singer (UK) is on ITV HD every Saturday at 7:00pm. This week’s episode is available to view again on ITV Hub and various ITV channels.
The Darkness’ album, Easter Is Cancelled, is out now.
No offense but on what Planet is the guy from The Darkness (at best, a third tier band) a rock God??
