“Here to cast the audience under my spell. It is I, Magic Monster, couldn't you tell? I may have appeared many moons ago, but I'm still in the spotlight. Just a different magic show. My new role sees me as a powerful mister. And today, my voice speaks loud for my mystical brothers and sisters. Singing to crowds is nothing new to me. Just ask my friends about Mrs. Monster to be. Tonight, I'm keeping these other creatures in my magical thoughts. As I'm a mighty beast to come head-to-head with if you do get caught.”
“Out of the entire animal kingdom, the antelope is what makes me shake in my fur.”

"This beast was born in a different realm. And while some people may fear my intimidating figure, I'm really a big softy on the inside. I've gone through pain to wear the patterns you see today. But I wear them with great pride for my fellow monsters. I've appeared besides many mythical creatures in my time like magical shape shifters and the legendary whale. But I'm not so shabby myself. After all, I'm the leader of my tribe."

“I first appeared on the scene many moons ago. I would jump and disappear and put on a show. With a quick sleight of hand, I would create such magic. But parts of my international career were just so tragic. At times, I missed the mark. But there's no shame in that. As I proved I was one of best and that is a fact. Tonight, I'm not relying on voodoo tricks because my voice is enchanted, just like my kicks.”
“Competing in groups of twelve is nothing new to me.”

“Growing up in the big smoke of Moster-ville was such a joy for me. I would dance and sing a cappella with the boys and get lost in the beat. You see, music was a deep spell cast in our magical shrine, and the sorcerer of the harmonies was that dedicated monster father of mine. When I had my first professional magic battle, it was me and my crew against the world. At first, I loved the spotlight, but as it grew brighter and brighter, my head began to swirl. Mumma monster had to step in and become my mighty defender. But soon after, I would become the monster wearing many caps and one of Monster-ville's greatest contenders.”

“I am tonight's representative from the magical monster's union. Rhythm runs deep in my supernatural family. And my brothers and sisters have wands of silver and iron. While I don't have wings myself, you may have seen me flying. But what goes up, must come down. And the bigger you are, the harder you fall. My infamous stumbles brought me crashing to my knees. And I was cursed by black magic time after time. But soon, one of my greatest magic tricks would be delivered.”

“Over the years my colours have changed from bright to dull and back again. I was in to dark magic in my days of youth. But I've passed on my wand if I'm telling the truth. In recent times, the cookie monster had to change his ways, and now I'm ready to see how this new game plays. I've fought beasts and kings of the jungles and fields. And tonight if I lose, I go out on my shield.”
“I can give you 919 reasons why I belong on this show.”
