The highly-anticipated Rudy Giuliani's unmasking episode finally aired on 'The Masked Singer' Season 7, and fans had some strong feelings about it. After Rudy was revealed as Team Bad's Jack in the Box, the celebrity judges panel and the audience had mixed feelings seeing the former New York City's mayor on the stage.

But nobody had a stronger reaction than judge Ken Jeong. While Rudy was explaining to the show's host Nick Cannon what prompted him to join the show, Ken crossed his arms and glared at the stage in disbelief. Rudy's explanation of trying to teach his newly born granddaughter to try out as many fun things in life as possible though his stint on the FOX show was well received by Nicole Scherzinger and Jenny McCarthy, while Ken and Robin Thicke continued to look unhappy. As soon as Rudy began crooning for one last time on the show after his unmasking, Ken simply said he was out and walked off the stage.
