International model and host Bar Refaeli is taking on a new role as a panelist on the upcoming season of "The Masked Singer," set to premiere soon on Keshet 12. Ahead of the show's launch, Refaeli expressed her excitement about joining the popular program, noting the high caliber of the masked contestants.
Refaeli described the experience as shocking and a privilege to be part of a show that refreshes Israeli television content. She highlighted the unique twist where the home audience will know the identities of the masked performers while the panelists remain in the dark. She also spoke about the camaraderie among the panelists, including Ofira Assayag, whom she described as like a sister or mother, and Moshe Peretz, with whom she felt comfortable joining the panel. She praised other panelists, referring to one as a "block of heart" and another as someone she had long wished to work with, calling him the "strongest man on Israeli television."
When asked about potential threats to the panel's guessing abilities, Refaeli dismissed the idea, emphasizing the collaborative and familial atmosphere that has developed. She specifically pointed to Moshe Peretz as someone with hidden talents, capable of impersonating other singers and panelists.
Refaeli admitted her biggest concern was the possibility of a family member being among the masked contestants. Her immediate suspects included her father, mother, Dor, and On. She confessed to making a significant bet on her father and constantly scrutinizing the body dimensions of the performers. She even mentioned Ofira Assayag suggesting she call her mother, Tzipi, to check if she was answering, but Refaeli resisted spoiling the surprise.
She explained that she deliberately avoided asking her family members directly to preserve the game's enjoyment. Refaeli stated she brings the show's mystery home, sleeping and thinking about it, and engaging with strangers who might offer clues, all part of the fun. She has not told her children or husband, wanting to experience the guessing game with them at home. Refaeli also described herself as emotional on the show, admitting to crying frequently, and detailed her meticulous research process involving analyzing clues and nuances to make her guesses.
