Spoiler Alert: Details for “The Masked Singer” season 14 episode 2, “Fear Night,” which aired on FOX on January 14th, are below. Updated at 6pm ET with full summary.
Todd and Julie Chrisley, the reality stars convicted of tax evasion and bank fraud and given full pardons by President Donald Trump last year, were unveiled Wednesday as celebrities dressed as croissants on Fox’s “The Masked Singer.” And then comedian Tiffany Haddish was revealed as Le Fou Fou.
Croissant was actually eliminated at the end of last week’s season premiere episode, but the show ended on a cliffhanger. Panelists Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg correctly guessed the Chrisleys, Robin Thicke said it was Snooki from Jersey Shore and The Situation, Ken Jeong guessed Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, and Rita Ora guessed Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag.

Le Who Who then received the fewest votes of any of this week’s contestants. Ora got on well with Tiffany Haddish. Thicke thought it was KeKi Palmer, McCarthy Wahlberg chose Leslie Jones, and Chung guessed Wanda Sykes.
“This is a show I’ve always wanted to be on,” Haddish told Variety. “Well, I’ve always wanted to be on ‘Dancing with the Stars,’ but I was told that’s not where my career should be. So, guess where it should be, and I get to be there! I know I’ll have an advantage on ‘Dancing with the Stars,’ because I’m a dancing machine.”
Haddish said her high school years served as a mascot and helped her perform on “The Masked Singer.” “In the 1900s, I was the school mascot and had to wear the mascot uniform,” she said. “My uniform back then wasn’t as inclusive as the one I wore this time, being la fou fou. But it was a great memory. It’s like muscle memory for me and I felt young again and I was sweating really hard.”
Here’s Haddish’s unmasking:
The “Fear Night” episode is in conjunction with Fox’s new series “Fear Factor: House of Horrors,” which will premiere immediately after “The Masked Singer” on Wednesday. Host Johnny Knoxville was our guest on this week’s episode.
