Spoiler Alert: Do not read ahead if you have not watched the Season 11 season premiere of “The Masked Singer,” which aired March 6 on Fox.
“The Masked Singer” kicked off its 11th season on Wednesday night — and in perhaps the show’s most unusual reveal ever, comedian Kevin Hart brought his prank war with host Nick Cannon to the show.
Hart brought his one-night-only appearance to “The Masked Singer” as Book, singing the song “So Sick,” by Ne-Yo (who happened to be the Season 10 winner on the show). The performance… was a bit pitchy, dawg. At the end of the song, the show’s panelists seemed to dig it. But after Robin Thicke quickly I.D.’ed Hart, the star took off his costume to reveal himself.
“This is a prank, you had no idea I was coming here Nick, and guess what, there’s nothing you can do about it,...

Kelly Rowland isn’t ready to spill the beans about what happened behind the scenes of the Today show earlier this month.
As Monsters and Critics previously reported, the actress and singer was interviewed on the morning show about her new movie, Mea Culpa, which premiered Friday, February 23, on Netflix.
Despite being scheduled to return to the show later in the morning alongside Hoda Kotb, she was Mia, and Rita Ora was drafted in at the last minute to replace her.
At the time, there were conflicting reports about whether Rowland walked off the show over the size of a dressing room or Savannah Guthrie’s questions about Beyonce.
In a new interview promoting Mea Culpa on WGN News in Chicago, anchor Dean Richards noted the countless articles on the internet, with various takes on what went down.
The former Destiny’s Child star shut him down when asked to clear up what happened.

Prince Harry's 2023 Invictus Games are in full swing, and he's clearly making the most of his time in Germany. The Duke of Sussex officially kicked off the seven-day Paralympic-style competition for wounded and recovering soldiers and veterans on Sept. 9 with an opening ceremony in Düsseldorf.
"This year's games is a home for respect," Harry said in a speech, as seen in a video shared by "Et Canada." "Think about that word for a second, 'respect.' What does it mean to you? What does it look like? What does it feel like? Some people may act like respect is something that veterans are asking for, that people with injuries - whether visible or invisible - have to demonstrate they're worthy of it. Some of you here may sometimes feel that way about yourselves. That you have something to prove."

Rita Ora is joining Fox's The Masked Singer.
Fox announced Wednesday that the British pop star will take over for Nicole Scherzinger on The Masked Singer Season 11, set to air in 2024.
The move doesn't affect The Masked Singer Season 10, which premiered Sunday on the network.
The switcheroo is due to Scherzinger's commitment to performing on London's West End in the fall.
Scherzinger, who has been with the show since its premiere in 2019, is expected to return for Season 12 if it gets a formal pickup by the network.
The Pussycat Doll is set to play Norma Desmond in the production of Sunset Boulevard.
With The Masked Singer filming two seasons a year, booking other projects that don't clash with the filming schedule must be tough.
Ora will appear alongside returning panelists Ken Jeong, Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg, and Robin Thicke, as well as Nick Cannon, who returns as host.

Held at the Scuola Grande della Misericordia, an imposing building featuring walls embossed with centuries-old Venetian art, this year’s amfAR Venezia kicked off with a cocktail hour where guests could admire the art that would be on auction later that night, including pieces from Andy Warhol and Slim Aarons.

Los Angeles, July 23 (Ians) British pop star and actress Rita Ora has reflected on what it was like to work with the late Carrie Fisher, her co-star in ‘Wonderwell’ that was finally released in June.
In an interview with People magazine, Ora termed the experience of working with the beloved Star Wars actress as “an amazing experience.”
Carrie Fisher died in 2016. ‘Wonderwell’ was released seven years after her passing. Fisher had completed her work on the movie just weeks before her death, but post-production work, as well as Covid lockdowns, delayed the release.
Ora, whose new album ‘You & I’ is out, said she’ll forever treasure those memories of working with Fisher.
“I’m really actually surprised and happy that this film’s finally getting the light that it deserves. To say I’ve been in scenes with Carrie Fisher, it’s insane. She’s an icon — a legend,...

In the last five years, Rita Ora has seemingly been everywhere: in the tabloids, as a panelist on The Masked Singer, a coach on The Voice Australia, in a handful of film roles including a supporting stint in Pokémon Detective Pikachu and collaborating on a smattering of singles with artists like Kygo, David Guetta and Tiësto. So it’s almost hard to imagine that her last album, Phoenix, was released in 2018. Ora’s name has remained on everyone’s lips—she’s made sure of it.

“I never really ask a lot of things from anyone, but I just said, ‘Okay, do you want to just do like a selfie video?’ And they were all like, ‘Oh my goodness, are you kidding me? Congratulations. Here it is.’

In the second episode of “Tooth Pari,” Sreela was sent by Meera to bring back Roy’s blood. But Rumi realized that Sreela could end up killing Roy if she drank too much blood, as she did not have control over her thirst. Unfortunately, Sreela encountered Luna Luka, the powerful leader of the Cutmundus Cult. She used her powers to kill Sreela, striking her with a silver dagger. However, with Sreela dead, Rumi’s plan to step out of the hideout would be in jeopardy, and she would have to find another way to escape. Also, Sreela’s death would create more tension and conflict between the vampires and the witches, potentially leading to further violence and danger.
At the beginning of “Tooth Pari” Episode 3, a box of blood supplies arrives at the hideout, but the vampires discover a horrifying sight when they open it: Sreela’s head with garlic cloves stuffed inside her mouth.
