To say Ziegler and Chmerkovskiy had an immense advantage over The Masked Dancer’s other competitors is an understatement, and makes Douglas’ victory a major upset and a bigger shock than anything we’ve seen on The Masked Singer.
I should also note that Gabby Douglas edging out The Tulip in the competition was a big achievement after the flower was revealed to be Mackenzie Ziegler.
While Ziegler may not have the accolades a veteran like Maksim Chmerkovskiy has, she was on Dance Moms for a chunk of her youth and was actually a finalist on Dancing With The Stars Juniors in 2018.
