'The Masked Singer' judge Nicole Scherzinger is convinced Olivia Rodrigo is behind the Ringmaster mask in an exclusive preview of the new episode
In an exclusive clip, "The Masked Singer" judge Nicole Scherzinger guesses who Ringmaster is.
Scherzinger guessed that Ringmaster was Olivia Rodrigo, who released her debut album "Sour" in 2021.
Rodrigo recently released "Driving Home 2 U," a documentary about the making of her album.
In a clip from Wednesday's upcoming episode of "The Masked Singer" shared exclusively with Insider, judge Nicole Scherzinger is convinced that Ringmaster — a circus-themed competitor singing for Team Good, one of the three groups of competitors this season along with Team Bad and Team Cuddly — is "Drivers License" singer Olivia Rodrigo.
The clip, which will air as part of the March 30 episode, shows Scherzinger parsing through clues about the competitor, who acts coy throughout.
"I don't know if this is her, but she is the hottest thing on the music scene right now," Scherzinger said. "I saw driver's license. Hannah Montana came from the Disney Channel, she also came from the Disney Channel. We saw Golden State, she's born in California."
"This could be Olivia Rodrigo, y'all," Scherzinger said.

Rodrigo's single "Drivers License" catapulted her to stardom after its release in January 2021. Followed by her debut album "Sour," which was named Insider's album of the year in 2021, Rodrigo has become one of the music industry's biggest stars in the span of less than a year.
The 19-year-old did get her start on Disney Channel, first starring in the series "Bizaardvark" for three seasons and later playing a lead role on the Disney+ series "High School Musical: The Musical: The Series," for which she also wrote multiple original songs. She was born in California in 2003.
Recently, Rodrigo has been preparing for the release of "Driving Home 2 U," a documentary about the making of "Sour," which premiered on Disney+ on March 25. She's also set to kick off her first tour on April 5, which she told People she had been in rehearsals for "like every day." The singer also told Rolling Stone in early March that she was back in the studio working on her second full album.
"The Masked Singer" filmed in the early months of 2022, with Deadline reporting in early February that multiple judges walked out after Rudy Giuliani was unmasked during one memorable taping.
It's unclear whether or not Ringmaster will turn out to be the "good 4 u" singer. The next episode of "The Masked Singer," which also features Hydra, Lemur, Miss Teddy, and Armadillo, airs Wednesday at 8:00 p.m. ET.
