We don't normally watch bogan shows on TV but we make an exception for The Masked Singer. What a ratbag of a show: so-called celebrities dress up in outlandish costumes and perform songs. The show is sprinkled with 'clues' which are supposed to lead the panellists to work out 'who's behind the mask'.
The MC is a loudmouth called Osher who shouts all the time and the panellists on this series included Mel B (or C?) from the Spice Girls whom you would have thought had more to do with her life. The audience screamed and sobbed at the appropriate times and a good time was had by all.
This world of celebrity is foreign to me but, for many people, it's their reality, There are people, I know, who spend their own lives reading magazines devoted to the lives of others who have attained some kind of notoriety. Apparently, once you're a celebrity, you are always a celebrity. One of this year's 'special guests' was Tori Spelling who hasn't worked much since starring in Beverley Hills 90210 twenty years ago. However, the panellists this year were starry-eyed when seeing her unmasked.
Can't wait for it to come around next year.
