Despite its popularity, Channel Ten’s The Masked Singer Australia reportedly won’t be returning to screens in 2024.

Its long-term judge on the reality tv singing competition, Dave Hughes shared the news on his 2DayFM radio show on May 7.

“As far as I know, The Masked Singer won’t be filmed this year for Channel 10,” he said.

“We’ve had such a great time over those years, it’s been such a fun show to be on, so many great singers have been on… It’s a tough one for the production team.”

However, Dave did reveal he was “waiting on a production schedule” which currently has “not come through.”

Despite this admission, no discussion of The Masked Singer being cancelled have been officially confirmed or denied by the network.

Therefore, last-minute arranges by Channel Ten could be made in order to save the singing contest.

Dave continued: “We’ve had such a great time over those years, it’s been such a fun show to be on, so many great singers have been on.”

The Masked Singer has seen the likes of Jacki O, Danni Minogue, Dami Im and so many more. Not to mention the judging panel including Abbie Chatfield, Chrissy Swan, Mel B and Dave Hughes.

Despite Dave’s confession regarding the shows future, he has hopes it will return in 2024.

“I think it will come back, I don’t know when, but I’d say that for the Channel 10 budget this year – doesn’t have enough money for it,” he said.

“Apparently it’s an expensive show to produce.”

Judge Chrissie said a cryptic statement regarding the shows future while on Nova radio: “it was a beautiful time and we loved it, but no.”
