¿Quién es la máscara? is a Mexican talent reality television series produced by Televisa and Endemol Shine Group. It is based on the South Korean television show King of Mask Singer created by Seo Chang-man. Televisa is the second network in the Americas to obtain the franchise of said program. It is hosted by Omar Chaparro and premiered on Las Estrellas on August 25, 2019.[1]
The series was renewed for a sixth season, that premiered on October 20, 2024.[2]
A group of celebrities hide behind a character and, week after week, a panel of researchers will try to discover who is behind the mask. Competitors are matched in face-off competitions and perform a song. The studio audience votes for their favorite performance and the masked singer with the most votes is safe for the week, while the celebrity with the least votes is nominated for elimination. The panelists decide which of the nominated celebrities will not continue in the competition. The eliminated celebrity removes their mask to reveal their identity.
The panelists of the first season consisted of actor and comedian Adrián Uribe, singer Yuri, actress and comedian Consuelo Duval, and singer Carlos Rivera.[3] Adrián Uribe did not return for season two and was replaced by Juanpa Zurita.[4] Consuelo Duval did not return for season three and was replaced by Mónica Huarte. Season 1 panelist Adrián Uribe replaced Chaparro as host in season 3.[5] Mónica Huarte did not return for season four and was replaced by Galilea Montijo, while Omar Chaparro returned to the show as host replacing Adrián Uribe.[6] Montijo did not return for season five and was replaced by Martha Higareda.[7] In the sixth season, Yuri was replaced by singer and actress Anahí.[8]
