How to watch 'The Masked Singer' U.S. season 13 online and from anywhere

It's more of the same from "The Masked singer" US season 13 but with a few twists to keep this phenomenally successful franchise entertaining and fresh. Nick Cannon, Robin Thicke, Jenny McCarthy-Wahlberg, Ken Jeong and Rita Ora have all returned, and The Ding Dong Keep It On Bell, Battle Royales and Smackdowns are all present and correct, but there have been some format changes...

Below is our guide to how to watch "The Masked Singer" season 13 from anywhere with a VPN.

This time round there will be 15 singers in three groups of five but only one will exit at the group finale stage. With "Lucky 13" being the theme of the season, six contestants will head into the “Lucky 6 Speed Guessing” episode and then a "Fab Five" before the semifinals and the finale - although we still don't know how many finalists there will be and Fox are promising something new and exciting.

In a throwback to "Cluedle-Doo" in season 5 (panelist Jenny McCarthy's husband and New Kids on the Block singer Donnie Wahlberg - she had the surprise of her life, remember?), we are also promised one new character in "Lucky Duck" who will be unmasked at the end of the show and will have a major connection to someone on the show.

Read on for everything you need to know about where to watch "The Masked Singer" season 13 online.
