"Not very often, a show comes along that seems to abandon all the rules.... and this is it. The Masked Singer is original, bold, funny and a proper guessing game, that we hope will have the nation hooked. We all loved it from the moment we saw it and are so excited to be bringing it to a U.K. audience," Siobhan Greene, ITV's head of commissioning, said in a statement.

Fox previously adapted the Korean show in which the audience and a panel of judges try to determine who costumed celebrities are by their voices.

Rapper T-Pain was crowned the first winner of the American version of the show in March.
