Rita Ora left speechless by shocking Masked Singer moment

The Masked Singer season 13 took a dramatic turn during its semi-finals episode on April 30, when Oscar-winning director Taika Waititi was unmasked as the season’s surprise character Lucky Duck.

The twist stunned viewers—and judge Rita Ora, who is Waititi’s wife.

Lucky Duck had been dropping clues throughout the season but fully entered the competition during the semi-finals, interrupting the elimination process and using the "Ding Dong Keep It On" bell to send  all four remaining contestants—Coral, Boogie Woogie, Pearl, and Mad Scientist Monster—to the finale.

Then came the shocker: Lucky Duck unmasked himself without prompting, revealing his identity to the judges. Waititi joked, “I’m a pop star, America!” and added that he joined the show just to see his wife. “You guys got her working so hard, I never get to see her,” he said playfully.
