Reality TV Power Couple Revealed as The Croissants on The Masked Singer Season 14
Todd and Julie Chrisley, the stars of the long-running USA Network reality series Chrisley Knows Best, have been revealed as The Croissants on The Masked Singer 2026 season 14. The husband-and-wife duo emerged from their elaborate pastry costumes after performing “Jailhouse Rock” during the show’s massive two-hour premiere, which featured a double-elimination and unprecedented format twist.
The Chrisleys’ reveal came with a cliffhanger ending to the season opener, as Fox left viewers hanging before unmasking them fully. The couple performed with symbolic ball-and-chain props on their ankles and black-and-white attire, playing into clues about their past controversies and return to the spotlight.
Panel’s Winning Guess
Panelist Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg proved her detective skills by correctly identifying the masked singer duo. While the other judges—Robin Thicke, Ken Jeong, and Rita Ora—made alternate guesses ranging from Jersey Shore stars to country music legends, Jenny’s focus on reality television icons and Southern references led her straight to the answer.
The Masked Singer 2026 Premiere Format
The season 14 premiere introduced 10 new masks in a competitive format centered on safety rather than immediate elimination. Masks competed in head-to-head matchups, with winners advancing to safety rounds and losers becoming what host Nick Cannon called “unusual suspects” for elimination. This innovative structure culminated in two unmasked contestants by night’s end.
Beyond The Croissants’ reveal, other performers introduced during the premiere included Galaxy Girl, Pugcasso, Stingray, Snow Cone, Handyman, Queen Corgi, and Googly Eyes. The season boasts what producers promised as “the most decorated star in the history of the show.”
The Chrisleys’ Reality TV Legacy
Todd and Julie Chrisley built their celebrity through Chrisley Knows Best, which aired from 2014 to 2023 and became a cultural phenomenon. The pair’s journey from reality television stars to masked singer competitors marks another chapter in their high-profile careers. Notably, their daughter Savannah Chrisley previously competed on The Masked Singer season 11, where she performed as the Afghan Hound.
What’s Next
With five masks still in competition after the premiere, The Masked Singer continues its unpredictable run. Week 3 will feature new performers including the 14 Karat Carrot, Crane, and Pangolin, keeping audiences guessing about celebrity identities beneath the elaborate costumes.
The Masked Singer airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Fox, with new episodes available to stream on Hulu the following day.
