Margaret Cho: Participating on The Masked Singer comes with "a little bit of a psychological trauma"

Entertainment Weekly

"It was impossible to see anything," Cho says of her poodle costume. "You could make out shapes at times. When you are on stage, the bright lights gave a very weird glare. It was very hard to hear. I had an in-ear stereo system to help hear my music. The resonance inside the chamber of the head was a little bit odd, too. You could hear yourself but you weren’t really sure other people could hear you." She adds:  "It was hard because I had this hood on, this Pulp Fiction-like hood. It was quite a struggle to get all of the pieces off. There was some amazingly intense secrecy. There is a little bit of a psychological trauma because you had to be masked and hidden all through rehearsals and the competition, which was actually quite a long process. Even though we weren’t on site at the studio and in places far away, we still had to be masked. You would have to put the mask on way before our destination. It was kind of Bird Box way early, way before we even saw the movie." ALSO: The Masked Singer's woman in yellow speaks.
