Broccoli is a masked celebrity on the fourth US season of The Masked Singer.
Appearance[]
The Broccoli appears to be some sort of monster, even having fangs at the bottom of his mouth. He has a basketball jacket on, with the letter "B" on the front (for Broccoli) and the masked singer logo on the back. He is also wearing yellow plaid pants. All of the Broccoli's clothing has tears in it, and it has two necklaces below his furry beard. The mask also sorts a green unibrow and purple eyes.

0 (Super Sneak Peek) | I’m a Brocco-lean, mean, heart pumping machine. After all, it’s how I got my six pack. |
5 | "H-e-e-e-re's Broccoli, baby! Let's do my new dance challenge, the 'Brocco-lean'. First you snap back, two, three, then Brocco-lean back, two, three. A contest greased the wheels for my career, and now I'm so humbled to work with the biggest artists, stacking up my cheese. It ain't easy being a kid rolling with the OGs, but performing is my passion. And while I've been on many stages, I can honestly say none have excited me more than this one. Tonight, I'm singing a tribute to the greats. I know I've got some big shoes to fill, but I'm ready. Brock on!" |
6 | "I love brockin' this costume. I feel like I'm a success story for the Masked Singer diet plan. Coupled with it being so steamy under this mask, I've already lost weight. But it's no sweat, because as far back as I could remember, I've always wanted to be a broccoli. I've dreamed of being a super food that enriches people's lives. And one night, I got the opportunity to do just that. I had dinner with a legendary friend: the Big Cheese." Big Cheese: "I need your help on one final project before I grow moldy, capiche?" "I raced home and after pulling an all-nighter, I cooked up a beauty that really packed a punch. I called the boss." Big Cheese: "Spit it out." "I made something special, but even I couldn't have imagined the classic I created, and all from one meal. And tonight, I'm gonna serve up another side of my legacy: the sultry side." |
9 | "In my line of work, I am no stranger to women fawning over me. What can I say? Ladies love a front man. I'm so grateful to have so many fans over the years, but it's the love I receive from these two special ladies that's truly been the secret to my success." (Broccoli's Leading Ladies): Broccoli is truly the ringmaster of our lives. he's always been the greatest showman. He's larger than life. He lives to light up the room. And his showbiz stories are legendary. As a kid, he used to sneak into the local circus and cut holes into the curtain so he could watch the show, dreaming about being one of the performers. Until he got caught! *laughing* But that's our Broccoli. He's scrappy, he's got chutzpah. The other contestants better watch out! He approaches everything with unparalleled perfectionism and pizzazz. So knock 'em dead tonight, Broccoli! We love you!" |
