Celebrities live various lives than the rest people and handle adoring fans on a a constant basis. With that stated, even if somebody is well-known doesn’t imply that they too can’t get starstruck from time to time. Even NSYNC’s Chris Kirkpatrick has his heroes, and satisfying among them just recently on The Masked Singer triggered him to “lose his mind.”
Chris Kirkpatrick was unmasked on The Masked Singer as Hummingbird, however he wasn’t the only celeb unmasked on that night (examine our full list of Season 8 reveals here). Audiences likewise found out that The Knight was Star Trek star William Shatner which The Hedgehog was Monty Python’s Eric Idle (who revealed some big news following the episode). Kirkpatrick stated he didn’t right away understand Shatner was on the program with him, however broke down what took place when he had a concept he’d quickly get to satisfy Idle:
I was backstage when they got exposed. They got exposed one at a time. William Shatner I didn’t hear and I didn’t understand till I headed out at the end and I saw him sitting there. But, Eric Idle when I was backstage, I heard just since I was leaving and I heard him do the Monty Python tune, ‘Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life,’ as his sort of outro tune. I simply lost my mind. The minute I heard that I resembled, ‘That’s among the Monty Python people. That’s gotta be Michael Palin, Eric Idle,’ among those. I was a substantial, substantial, fan of Monty Python. So much so that after all of us got exposed, I ran over to his dressing space and simply needed to shake his hand and take a photo with him. It was incredible.
Chris Kirkpatrick was so delighted that he’d be satisfying somebody from Monty Python that he couldn’t assistance however fanboy out simply a bit and get a photo. Fortunately for him, The Masked Singer Season 8 is a season with several removals an episode. Had he remained in this exact same circumstance in a previous season, he wouldn’t have actually had the ability to satisfy Eric Idle, as he’d need to continue to stay confidential.
The vocalist kept in mind that he was likewise enjoyed satisfy William Shatner when he discovered he existed later on in the program. Chris Kirkpatrick shared his experience of standing together with 2 icons, and what he was feeling while socializing with them:
And naturally, William Shatner’s a legend. He’s so renowned that he’s beyond renowned. It was so cool to share a phase with them and to have those minutes where they’re joking around with me and I’m examining and like, ‘That’s William Shatner and Eric Idle joking with me today.’ It’s actually sort of surreal.
All 3 males were, regrettably, sent out house throughout The Masked Singer Season 8 best. The format of the brand-new season varies from those of the past, in which just one candidate who carries out in the episode will advance to the next round. The outcome is audiences have a lot less time to anticipate the identities of stars, which more contestants leave after just doing one efficiency.
For Chris Kirkpatrick, it was a brief run. Kirkpatrick joked in our interview that he carried out simply as well in The Masked Singer as he carried out in Season 3 of Celebrity Big Brother. Ironically enough, there’s another Celebrity Big Brother alum who completed on The Masked Singer, Todrick Hall, and his efficiency mirrored how he ended up in both video games also. Hall finished runner-up in both programs, however I’m presuming left The Masked Singer with fewer harsh words compared to the Celebrity Big Brother ending. Perhaps Kirkpatrick is onto something with this phenomenon?
