I love that everyone can play along at home trying to guess which celebrities are under the mask. I’m also excited for my daughter to see it, she will love it.”
 
The US version was launched in January averaged 11 million viewers and has been renewed for two more seasons with the first season won by T-Pain, disguised as a monster, beating out Gladys Knight.
