‘Extra’s’ Billy Bush Revealed as Sir Lion on ‘The Masked Singer’
On Wednesday night, “Extra” host Billy Bush was unmasked as Sir Lion on FOX’s hit series “The Masked Singer.”
Billy says of the experience, “I loved doing ‘The Masked Singer.’ I love singing and masks — it was perfect.”
Billy appeared on Season 11 of the show to help to celebrate “Extra’s” milestone 30th season.
Bush belted “Love and Marriage,” the theme song from “Married with Children,” as part of TV Night.
Panelists Rita Ora, Ken Jeong, Jenny McCarthy-Wahlberg, Robin Thicke and host Nick Cannon were happy to see Billy!
Jenny raved, “Billy, I had no idea you could sing like this.”
When Billy said that he was “not a great singer,” Jenny assured him, saying, “You are a great singer.”
Billy quipped, “If you can’t get them with the lips, get them with the hips.”
Nick shared his two cents on Billy’s costume, saying, “This is probably one of the cooler costumes we’ve had.”
Billy also had this message to viewers: "If you've never done something that's a little on the scary side, like this is scary. Like, I truly — oh, I'm shaking back there. Say yes! And do it!"
Next week, “The Masked Singer” is back with Shower Anthem Night, airing Wednesday, April 3, at 8/7 central on FOX!
