Victor Oladipo on The Masked Singer 

Post#1 » by xxSnEaKyPxx » Thu Dec 12, 2019 11:49 pm

There was a thread when the season first started about Oladipo being on The Masked Singer, but last night it was confirmed.



He got 5th place...not bad for an NBA player.

Victor can really sing. Hope he gets back to his day job soon.

I didn't watch it at first, stupid show. Friend told me about it, she told me some of the clues and I said it was Vic right away. Most Basketball fans picked it was Victor pretty early on.

I was just about to make a post in here about this, although I planned to not spoil who the singer was, in case people wanted to still try to guess. :D

I was thinking it was Richard Jefferson myself, although the clues were really spot on when you look back at them.

Oladipo is a really good singer.

Damn a song. I miss the hell out of his lightning quick dribble drives and double pump scoops.

I’d love to see an NBA a cappella group led by VO. They could perform at the all star game halftime show. It’s be funny as hell.

You can youtube the clue videos, but he had a number 4 candle, he made reference to Maryland, to Indiana Jones, to being in rehab, to being an All Star, and a knee brace.

Never watched an episode of this show since it's a ripoff from Korea's variety show (of the same name), and didn't feel the same excitement I got from it. Wish I could've watched this particular episode though... always liked Oladipo as a singer as well.

Ah, I gotcha.

I saw that he might pull Nicole Scherzinger (who I can't believe is 41 btw). Props on that.

He could really sing. I was impressed.

Antonio Brown did it season 1 and was first out. Vic was beating out people who do this for a living, and got close to making the finals.

On that Youtube they have a lot of Oladipo's performances.

And he also mentioned the word "feathery" in that video which is pretty much his catch phrase.

And I am left with nothing but an oath that gleams like a sword
To bathe in the blood of man

The way I hear it...he won the whole damn thing.

(Nicole Scherzinger was the prize all along, right?)

The crowd reacted shocked like they knew who he was. This shows how over produced those types of shows are.
