The Masked Singer is known for its dramatic reveals, but Method Man strutting on stage as a blueberry muffin might just take the cake—or muffin, in this case. Concealed beneath a vibrant costume and dubbed ‘Stud Muffin,’ the Wu-Tang Clan star surprised both judges and audience.
Method Man, a familiar name in hip-hop, took a surprising turn as he appeared on The Masked Singer in a blueberry muffin getup. The audacious rapper performed two tracks before his identity was uncovered after his second performance, much to the crowd’s delight.
His first performance was a catchy rendition of House Of Pain’s “Jump Around.” Despite the mask, his iconic voice rang through, leaving the judges and viewers speculating about the person behind the muffin. The audience was hooked, eager to see more from the unexpected star.
For his encore, Method Man tackled Bell Biv DeVoe’s hit “Poison,” showing off moves and tunes far removed from his usual rap-centric performances. However, after this performance, he was eliminated, but not before sending hosts Rita Ora and Robin Thicke into a frenzy at his unmasking.
This isn’t the first time a hip-hop artist has graced the stage of The Masked Singer. Back in 2021, rapper Wiz Khalifa took to the stage in a colorful chameleon costume, performing hits such as Nelly’s “Ride With Me” before he was eventually unmasked and sent home.
In another memorable appearance, the elusive Lil Wayne made his debut on the show during its third season as The Robot. His journey on the show was short-lived, ending after the premiere, but he acknowledged the experience was for his children, who enjoy the show.
More recently, in 2023, singer Ne-Yo claimed victory in the tenth season of The Masked Singer, performing as a cow in a skirt. Not to be outdone, Grandmaster Flash left his mark as the Polar Bear in season nine, revealing that his participation on the show brought him happiness in challenging times.
While Method Man’s journey on The Masked Singer was brief, it was undeniably memorable. His unique blend of music and performance arts brought smiles and surprises. Shows like these provide an entertaining escape, allowing artists to explore different facets of performance.
