Summary of The Masked Singer season 9
The current season of the show follows a similar format to the previous one, with three contestants appearing in each episode.

However, a new twist is introduced this season called the "Ding Dong Keep It On" bell, which allows a panelist to save a singer from elimination. The bell can only be used once per group. A special episode will feature those saved by the "Ding Dong" bell. The contestants this season have an impressive track record, with a combined 95,231,000 records sold, 28 Emmy nominations, 26 books, 10 gold albums, six Grammy wins, five-lifetime achievement awards, five medals, four Golden Globe nominations, four stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and two Tony Award nominations.
