The first 10 of the 18 new contestants on “The Masked Singer” season 14 take the stage tonight during “The Masked Singer” 2026 premiere. One of those contestants is Scarab.
When the night comes to an end tonight, after all of the contestants perform and offer their first clues of the season about their celebrity identity, two characters will be unmasked. Here’s what we know about Scarab so far, and who might be singing behind the mask:
BEWARE OF “THE MASKED SINGER” SEASON 14 PREMIERE SPOILERS BELOW
Scarab on ‘The Masked Singer’ Clues
Scarab takes the stage. Jenny said she is very elegant, graceful, and is getting a diva on Broadway. For Scarab, they said she is the most decorated we have ever seen. She said she had dined with Brad Pitt, and even Prince knew her name. She said she’s been at this for a long time. The Scarab is about redefining yourself, so she is here to redefine herself again.
For her performance, she performs “Set Fire to the Rain” by Adele. She definitely has a strong stage presence, also. A very good voice and is great up there. She said they keep saying her name, so she thought she would finally show up.
‘The Masked Singer’ Scarab Guesses
Ken said it’s Whoopi Goldberg. She is a legend. She was the voice of Hyena on “The Lion King.” Jenny said she had a dressing room next to Whoopi, and she doesn’t sound like that. The scales of justice made her think of a lawyer show, so she thinks it could be Viola Davis. Robin said she is a legend, so he thinks it could be Sheryl Lee Ralph.
She won her battle against The Croissants, so we’ll be seeing more of Scarab this season. Some fans seem to agree with Robin that this could be Sheryl Lee Ralph. However, the big focus seemed to be on Taraji P. Henson.
One fan wrote, “That’s definitely Taraji… Brad Pitt reference gave it away,” while another added, “That’s DEFINITELY Taraji P. Henson…. Has that Cookie walk and attitude.” It seems like the Cookie walk and attitude are present in this performance, so could Scarab be Taraji P. Henson or maybe even Sheryl Lee Ralph?
New episodes of “The Masked Singer” season 14 air on Wednesday nights at 8/7c on FOX. They are available to stream the next day on Hulu.
