In February of this year it was already announced that during an episode of the American TV program The Masked Singer, some judges had run away when it turned out that Rudy Giuliani was in the suit. The broadcast could be seen on Wednesday evening, including the image of a visibly disgruntled Ken Jeong who says “I’m done” before walking away.

The news about Giuliani in the Masked Singer came out in February via an essay in The Hollywood Reporter† Journalist David Fienberg called it “a new low for image laundering on TV”. The criticism is that former New York Mayor and Trump adviser Giuliani was given a platform to be funny, while he is partly responsible for the attack on American democracy by playing a guiding role in the attack on the Capitol, and by to persist in alleging fraud in the US presidential election.

Besides Jeong, singer Robin Thicke also ran away. Fellow judges Jenny McCarthy and Nicole Scherzinger remained seated. The latter turned out not to recognize Giuliani and had asked if it was actor Robert Duvall. “No, that’s not Robert Duvall,” Jeong replied monotonously.
