Singer dressed as an astronaut Max Mutzke (38, “Horizont”) won “The Masked Singer” last year, ahead of Gil Ofarim (37, grasshopper) and Bülent Ceylan (44, angel). In the finale of the second season, on April 28th, live from 8:15 p.m. on ProSieben, Mutzke will now return as an astronaut and present the winner with this year’s winner, as the broadcaster announced.
Previously, Mutzke alongside Ruth Moschner (44) and Rea Garvey (46) will try to find out which celebrities are under the four remaining masks as Rategast. The sloth, the rabbit, the dragon and the wuschel are included in the grand finale. Moderator Matthias Opdenhövel (49) will lead through the show again.
So far, six celebrities have had to take off their masks this season. Model Franziska Knuppe (45) was seen as a bat, singer Stefanie Heinzmann (31) was in the Dalmatian costume, her colleague Angelo Kelly (38) was the cockroach, actress Rebecca Immanuel (49) pretended to be a goddess and TV presenter Caroline Beil (53) slipped into a robotic disguise. In addition, many had already guessed it, but it was a big surprise when 84-year-old comedian Dieter “Didi” Hallervorden was exposed as a chameleon last week.
Mutzke can’t wait to go back to The Masked Singer studio. “I am really looking forward to the unmasking because I am sure that I know a few of the celebrities personally”, the singer reveals in a recent press release. “And I’m really looking forward to the moment when the winner takes off his mask and I can hand over the prize – from winner to winner. It’s a really great symbol. “
