Jokes of the winner of the masked singer, in the evening they wanted to go home 1

During A singer in a maskIn the season 12 finale, the Buffalos—now known as Boyz II Men—achieved something no other band had done before, becoming the first band to win the Golden Mask trophy, but they didn’t initially think about winning.

“We’ve been called a number of times… and we’ve decided we’re going to do it,” Vanya Morris exclusively told Us Weekly ahead of the final on Wednesday 18 December. “Because they called a couple of times and we couldn’t. So the last time we said, OK, let’s get this over with so they never call us again.

Vanya, 51, and his band mates, Nathan Morris (no relationship) and Sean Stockmanthought the performance would be a “good show” but they had no idea they would be able to take home the top award. A singer in a mask has a history elimination of major recording artists during the season premiere, and the guys thought it might be their destiny.

“(We thought), ‘We’re probably not going to win because they are know who we are. We’ll either be guessed or if we disguise our voices, we know they won’t like who we are and we’ll be kicked out,” Vanya recalls, before Nathan, 53, intervened: “We were hoping to get kicked out on the first night so we could go home!”

On the subject: Winners of “Singer in a mask” years later: where are they now?

who is this The Masked Singer panelists ask this question several times each episode, and the answer is: everyone. Since the show debuted in January 2019, notable contestants have included Joey Fatone, Michelle Williams, Tori Spelling, Mickey Rourke, Patti LaBelle, Kelly Osbourne, Bret Michaels, Lil Wayne, Jordyn Woods, Wendy Williams, (…)

However, after the shooting began, they changed their mood. “When we got there and saw the energy and felt the whole atmosphere, we just thought, ‘Look, man, as long as we’re here, we might as well stay,'” Vanya said us. “And win. And then leave!”

Sean, 52, admitted the trio “didn’t expect much from the experience” but they soon “really got into” performing as the Buffalos.

“It allowed us to be ourselves, believe it or not,” he explained. “The masks allowed us to reveal things about who we are as singers, who we are as people, music lovers, because a lot of people don’t associate Boyz II Men with Toto or the other songs we’ve done on the show, so it was nice for people to take a look to our playlist, songs and music we love from artists we’ve loved in some cases since childhood. So it was nice and it went deeper than just winning overall.”

The guys even choked on stage during the final, which Vanya attributed to the unusual circumstances of the competition at A singer in a mask as well as realizing that filming the show brought them closer together.

“The most emotional thing for us was that we overcame a situation that most people would have given up on.” It was very hot in those suits and we didn’t know if we could do performances like (the finale) from the start,” he explained. “It just felt like we were a new band to me. And we were accepted as good singers, as good performers, and we weren’t even human. … We were all Buffalo, you know what I mean? Even though we are individuals, we all embodied the same character and we overcame all the obstacles, dehydration, we overcame anxiety. We overcame everything and sang for the people with all our hearts.”

Sean agreed, adding: “It just made us realize that we still have the energy that we’ve always had (from) 33 years ago. Sometimes in any relationship, you tend to take the dynamics you’ve built on for granted, and that forced us to refocus. It made us remember why we did it in the first place.”

Boyz II Men have no plans to slow down in the new year, with tour dates booked through July.

“A lot of people use the word ‘relevant’ in their own way, and we feel like we’re relevant to each other, and that’s more important to us than anything else,” Nathan said. “And as long as we’re related to each other, we’ll be able to follow what everyone else is doing. And we have a lot to look forward to.”
