For the first time in the show's history, the winner of each group will face-off against each other in the season finale episode. The season features two groups, Group A and Group B. Jenny McCarthy pushed the button for Group B and incorrectly guessed that "Caterpillar" was Jake Gyllenhaal. Ken Jeong pushed the button for Group A and guessed incorrectly that "Pepper" was Sara Bareilles. If the guess is incorrect, then the contestant keeps their mask on and stays in the competition. If a panelist pushes it and guesses the celebrity correctly, then the contestant must take off their mask and be eliminated and the panelist will get two extra points towards their Golden Ear score. The button can be used once for each group. Ī new twist called the 'Take It Off Buzzer' was introduced in this season. Also aided by the availabilty of COVID-19 vaccines, this season features a studio audience for the first time since season three (the last season filmed prior to the start of the pandemic), though with a smaller size than it used to be. During production, it was reported that 12 positive cases of COVID-19 were confirmed at Red Studios Hollywood, though filming was not halted. įilming for the season began at the end of June 2021, with an expected wrap date of August 11. On July 26, 2021, it was announced that the season would premiere with a two-night premiere on September 22 and 23.
