The new Masked Singer judging panel has hit the TV WEEK Logie Awards red carpet, and they already seem like the perfect team.
Former Bachelor star Abbie Chatfield dazzled in a silver Con Ilio mirror ball dress with a floor-length shawl, while former Spice Girl Mel B arrived in a Zhivago body con orange dress with shoulder pads.
The pair posed together on the red carpet and put their glittering personalities on display – Scary Spice even threw Abbie’s train up dramatically in the ultimate girl power move.
Meanwhile Dave ‘Hughesy’ Hughes, who has been a panellist since the first season, looked dapper in a navy suit and retro glasses.
The TV and radio funny man posed with newbie Chrissie Swan who wore a sleek black dress with a shoulder poof.
The new gang of judges was announced in early June, and fans of the series were surprised to see Abbie, Mel, and Chrissie join Hughesy.
In a post announcing the new line-up, the official Masked Singer Instagram account wrote: “We’re never short of surprises, so we’ve decided to give you three! Let’s hear it for our new Panelists!
“@chrissieswan, @abbiechatfield and @officialmelb join @dhughesy and our favourite Host @osher_gunsberg on #MaskedSingerAU 👏.”
The new judges shared their excitement about joining the hit show via their respective Instagram accounts.
Chrissie said she was “thrilled” to be joining the “stellar judging panel”, while calling the program “the most delightfully bonkers show on tv”.
Abbie similarly called the experience an “honour”, while Mel B wrote she was “delighted” to join the judging panel.
Hughesy also shared his excitement for “fun times ahead”.
The announcement of the new judging panel comes soon after former judge Jackie O revealed she was leaving the show to spend more time with her daughter, Kitty.
