Currently in its fourth season on Fox, The Masked Singer is a singing competition that puts celebrities inside crazy costumes while they perform. The show is well-known for its zany atmosphere and exaggerated performances, which is why a Masked Singer drinking game just makes sense. Here's everything to know about the game, and how to play it while watching the show.

The Masked Singer is hosted by Nick Cannon, with panelists including musicians Nicole Scherzinger and Robin Thicke, actress Jenny McCarthy, and comedian and actor Ken Jeong. After four seasons of The Masked Singer, several judges have predictable behaviors and phrases, which is why a drinking game is perfect for The Masked Singer. The game can be as family friendly (or not) as people want it to be, so choose a beverage carefully.

Like most drinking games, people must watch for certain reactions or listen for certain words before taking a drink. The rules for the most common iteration of the Masked Singer drinking game started at EW during the show's third season, but fans of the show can add their own drinking cues if they want. The panelists haven't change much since season three, which is why the game still completely works in season four. To play, people will only need a drink (or a few), and at least one episode of The Masked Singer to watch.

How To Play The Masked Singer Drinking Game

Most of the drinking cues for the Masked Singer drinking game come from the panelists. For instance, people drink anytime Ken Jeong says, "I know EXACTLY who this is" or when other panelists make fun of him for his bad predictions. If Nicole Scherzinger is brought to tears by a performer, or if a panelist uses the term "soulful" to describe a performance, that also means people have to drink. Other common drinking cues are if a panelist guesses a former member of a boy band, or if someone in the audience is filmed going crazy.

There are other rules, such as drinking when the panelists make incredibly off-base guesses, but because of the craziness of the show, there are plenty of other cues fans can add themselves. The great thing about the Masked Singer drinking game is that people can use the EW version as a starting point before adding their own versions. Longtime fans of the show probably have a few ideas for additions already.

The Masked Singer is already an over-the-top TV show. Adding a drinking game into the mix just makes sense. For anyone looking to add a bit more fun to watching the show, the Masked Singer drinking game can be just about perfect.
