The Masked Singer season 14 hits FOX with a special 2-hour premiere on Wednesday, Jan. 7.The competing celebs are kept under wraps (literally) until the judges correctly guess and reveal their identities.Descendants star and budding pop star Kylie Cantrall <\/p>\n

You may know Kylie Cantrall as Princess Red in Disney\u2019s Descendants movies, or maybe her infectious R&B-tinged tracks like \u201cBoy For a Day\u201d have made their way onto your Spotify Wrapped this year. Either way, one thing\u2019s for sure: The girl\u2019s got serious vocal chops and star power. <\/p>\n

Perhaps that\u2019s why she\u2019s joining the ranks on the upcoming season of The Masked Singer<\/a>, which hits FOX with a special two-hour premiere on January 7. In an Instagram post shared on Wednesday, December 10, the Disney princess turned pop star shared that she\u2019s competing on the show\u2019s 14th season\u2014but there\u2019s a catch.<\/p>\n

For the first time in the reality series\u2019 history, she\u2019ll be \u201cAmerica\u2019s Insider\u201d as she brings viewers in on the process of her competition strategy. Honestly, it\u2019s pretty historic as fans will be able to follow her journey from the start. <\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll be working for you and sharing my strategy to throw off Nick, Robin, Jenny, Ken, and my on-screen mom Rita,\u201d the triple threat quipped in her video, referring to the show\u2019s host and judging panel. \u201cThey have no idea this is happening. It\u2019s the biggest secret ever!\u201d <\/p>\n

While The Masked Singer\u2019s whole shtick is for the judges and viewers to guess the identities of contestants as they compete in outlandish disguises, it\u2019s unclear whether we\u2019ll get to see Kylie\u2019s costume during her behind-the-scenes journey. <\/p>\n

ICYMI, some of the costumes that will be featured this season include High Voltage, Snowcone, Eggplant, Galaxy Girl, Pugcasso, Queen Corgi, Scarab, and The Croissants. Which one will Kylie be hiding under? <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Masked Singer season 14 hits FOX with a special 2-hour premiere on Wednesday, Jan. 7.The competing celebs…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":177942,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[2115,113854,2117,156,2462,111,139,69,113853,437],"class_list":["post-177941","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tv","tag-content-type-news","tag-contentid-b9c65475-03a7-4f4a-9aca-e1aef16bd1f6","tag-displaytype-standard-article","tag-entertainment","tag-locale-us","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz","tag-shorttitle-kylie-cantralls-competing-on-the-masked-singer","tag-tv"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/177941","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=177941"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/177941\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/177942"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=177941"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=177941"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=177941"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
