Each season ofThe Masked Singerdelivers a fresh batch of jaw-dropping performances, wild celebrity reveals, and—of course—utterly outrageous costumes. While some characters dazzle with their design and stage presence, others leave viewers scratching their heads and wondering, “Who approved this look?”. Season 13 didn’t hold back, serving up some of the most bizarre ensembles we’ve seen yet.
From walking baked goods to disco-dancing monsters, the costume department took some creative swings this season. But not all of them landed. Here are the seven worst costumes ranked fromThe Masked Singerseason 13 that had us laughing, cringing, and occasionally craving muffins.
7Honey Pot Was Endearing But Strange
A Honey-Themed Costume That Looked More Like A Storybook Character Than A Singer
Honey Pot rolled onto the stage as a giant yellow-and-blue container, complete with three floating bumblebees in tiny black hats. The costume was colorful and capricious, clearly designed to charm the audience. But instead of dazzling, it gave off major storybook character vibes—more nursery rhyme than showtime.
While the bees added a quirky touch, the overall design felt more suited for a preschool cartoon than a national singing competition. The concept was sweet, but the execution was just too literal. Ultimately,Honey Pot was more of a sugary spectacle than a serious contender.
6Fuzzy Peas Was A Veggie-Themed Fever Dream
Anthropomorphic Peas In Musketeer Outfits? Only On The Masked Singer Season 13
Fuzzy Peas took the stage as a trio of dapper, sword-wielding legumes dressed like The Three Musketeers. At first glance, the concept was captivating and lively. But once the novelty wore off, it hit you—you were rooting for talking vegetables in elaborate feathered hats.
The creativity behind the costume was undeniable, but so was the strangeness. With oversized grins and exaggerated outfits, the peas leaned more toward a grocery store mascot than a singing sensation. It was odd, colorful, and just a little too much to digest—pun intended.
5Dessert Couture Gone Wild In A Stud Muffin
A Muffin-Inspired Costume That Left Viewers Craving Carbs—Not Clarity
The Masked Singerseason 13’s Stud Muffinwas, quite literally, a walking baked good. With a banana muffin for a head, a blueberry muffin body, and strawberry and chocolate muffin feet, the iconic costume looked like a bakery exploded in the wardrobe department. The addition of a cranberry muffin hat didn’t help tone it down either.
The result was something between delicious and deranged.Stud Muffin was funny at first, but quickly became a distractionfrom the actual performance. It’s hard to take someone seriously when they’re covered in breakfast foods. Despite this being an interesting costume to look at, it’s not my number one.
4Ant: A Farm-Fresh Fashion Statement
Insect In A Gingham Dress On The Masked Singer
Ant strutted ontoThe Masked Singerstage in a red gingham dress, a straw sunhat, and bold red knee-high boots. The insect-meets-fashion look was bold and bizarre; however, it was also borderline creepy. Nonetheless, no one was prepared to see an ant dressed like she was heading to a farm-themed garden party.
There’s no doubt the costume was detailed and imaginative, but it also gave an uncanny valley vibe. The human-clothing-on-bug look made it difficult to focus on the vocals as I was too busy looking at the wardrobe. In the end,Ant was equal parts lovely and nightmare fuel.
3Paparazzo: Smile For The Costume Chaos
Camera-Headed Contestant Brings Meta Vibes To The Masked Singer
Paparazzo turned heads onThe Masked Singerwith a literal camera as a head, paired with a classy three-piece suit and bow tie. The innovative visual pun earned points for originality but also made audiences do a double-take—was this high fashion or a prop closet mishap? The expressionless lens added a strangely robotic edge to the ensemble.
The costume as a whole felt like a meta-commentary on celebrity culture, but it teetered into eccentric territory. Something is unsettling about being watched by a giant camera that’s also singing.Paparazzo was creative, sure—but again, also creepy.So far, it’s starting to seem like creepy was a theme here.
2Myth Meets Mayhem With Griffin
Overloaded Fantasy Costume Blurs The Line Between Cool And Confusing
Griffin was a mythological mash-upthat combined a lion’s mane, a giant bird beak, oversized wings, and gladiator armor. On paper, it sounded epic—but in practice, it was sensory overload. The sheer scale of the costume was impressive, but it completely swallowed the person inside.
The mixture of animal traits with the warrior aesthetic didn’t blend as seamlessly as intended. Instead of looking majestic,Griffin looked like five different costume designers couldn’t agreeon a theme. The result was a more chaotic creature than a mystical marvel.
1Disco Monster Madness In Boogie Woogie
Glitter, Fur, and Funk Combine In The Worst Costume Of Season 13
Boogie Woogie boogied onto the stage in an explosion of orange fuzz, purple headphones, and disco flair. With closed eyes, a toothy smile, and a glittery gold chain, this character looked like a throwback club monster from a forgotten kids’ show. It was bold, bright, and baffling.
While designed to bring high energy,Boogie Woogie’s cartoonish facemade connecting with the performer inside hard. The look was entertaining, but it leaned so far into kitsch that it never quite came back. Disco fever - more like disco confusion.
The Masked Singerairs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. EDT on FOX.
