This Masked Singer Season 11 Contestant Wants To Become A Panelist

Summary The Masked Singer season 11 runner-up Scott Porter, who was Gumball, wants to be a panelist on the show.

Scott correctly guessed every member of his group from backstage after hearing them sing.

Scott's knowledge of voices and celebrities would make him a perfect fit as a permanent or guest panelist on the show.

The Masked Singer season 11 runner-up Scott Porter, who was Gumball, reveals that he wants to join the panel of the mystery celebrity singing competition series. Scott placed second to Vanessa Hudgens' Goldfish, who was crowned and the winner. The Masked Singer season 11 panel featured Robin Thicke, Jenny McCarthy-Wahlberg, Ken Jeong, and Rita Ora, who was filling in for Nicole Scherzinger while she starred in London's West End production of Sunset Boulevard. None of the panelists were able to guess Scott's identity.

"I guessed everyone in my group from day one."

In an interview with EW, Scott revealed that he thinks that he should be a Masked Singer panelist because "I guessed everyone in my group from day one." He explained that the contestants are isolated from everyone backstage, but they can still hear the performances. Scott said, "I knew Corey Feldman from the very moment he opened his mouth. I knew Clay [Aiken] and Ruben [Studdard] the very moment they opened their mouths. It took me a song to figure out who Jenifer [Lewis] was, but I figured her out." He admitted that the only person who stumped him was Chrissy Metz as Poodle Moth.

Scott also revealed that he knew that Vanessa was Goldfish "from the get-go having done a film with her. I've been all over the place in my 20-plus years in this business. I know a lot voices. So yeah, I'd love to pop back in and do a little guest judging. I think I'm well suited for it." Because Scott was so good at guessing his fellow competitors, he should definitely have the opportunity to be a permanent or guest panelist in a future season. He seemed to really love being on the show, and he was having the time of his life. Scott's enthusiasm is infectious, and he would fit in well with the other panelists.

As The Masked Singer season 11's Gumball, Scott wowed the panelists and the audience with every one of his sensational performances. He fought harder than anyone else in the competition, winning two Smackdowns and two Battle Royales. Scott's impressive performances showcased his stunning vocal range and incredible star quality. They included a medley of "If I Only Had a Heart" by Jack Haley and "Heartbeat Song" by Kelly Clarkson, "Wide Open Spaces" by The Chicks, "Carry On Wayward Son" by Kansas, "I'm Yours" by Jason Mraz, "Go the Distance" by Michael Bolton, "I Lived" by OneRepublic, "Latch" by Disclosure ft. Sam Smith, and "Renegade" by Styx.

The Masked Singer has welcomed many guest panelists through the years, although season 11 didn't have any. It would be fun for the show to bring back a former contestant such as Scott as a panelist, either as a guest or permanently. He seems to have a vast knowledge of celebrities, which is so important when making guesses on a show such as The Masked Singer. Scott was one of the best contestants in Masked Singer history, giving amazing performances week after week, while also hiding his true identity. It would be thrilling to see Scott return to The Masked Singer as a panelist.

The Masked Singer season 12 premieres in the fall of 2024 on FOX.
