Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, a virtual online audience was used instead of a live studio audience, with a small number of Australian viewers selected to watch the live performances as the show was produced and vote for their favourite character's performances. The performer with the least votes by the online panel was unmasked in each episode. For confidentiality, the virtual audience did not witness the elimination's result or the unmasking of the performers.

The returning judging panel consisted of radio personality Jackie O, singer-songwriter Dannii Minogue and comedian Dave Hughes. Osher Günsberg returned to host the show.
