Vinny Guadagnino is the latest celebrity who was unmasked on 'The Masked Dancer' on Wednesday night. He was the Hammerhead among the Super Six lineup and the first contestant to be eliminated from the group that also consisted of Zebra, Sloth, Exotic Bird, Tulip and Cotton Candy — all of whom have advanced to the quarterfinals.

As is tradition on the show, Vinny decoded all of the hints about his true identity that was a part of the clue package video. The burger as a visual clue was a nod to his guest role on the sitcom 'The Hard Times of RJ Berger' while Las Vegas and all the partying clues were included because of his residency as a stripper at a Chippendales in the party city.

According to a Distractify report, in April 2019, Vinny started a residency with Chippendales as a guest host at the Rio Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas. "Wow. What an epic 6 weeks it has been hosting @chippendales. Can’t believe the residency is over so quickly," he wrote in May at the end of his first residency that lasted six weeks.

He had prepared a lot for this gig but began it with a sprained ankle that he endured just a day before his residency kickstarted but it all worked out for him in the end. "We made the show work and performed the best I could...with it getting a little better every weekend. Plus, I didn’t need my ankle to show my ass!" the 'Jersey Shore' star wrote.

"I want to thank everyone who flew out and came to the show. The room was packed with love every night and I’m so grateful. Also grateful for these hot hunks spraying white stuff all over my face as a farewell. Thanks for having the @ketoguido! Until we meet again!" he concluded. 



 

Is Vinny Guadagnino a stripper?

Vinny was back for his second residency in July 2019 and it lasted till September 1 and he was supposed to be back for his third outing between April 24 to June 7 2020 but it got postponed indefinitely since Vegas went into lockdown during the pandemic. Stay hooked to Guadagnino's page for more information about his next outing at Chippendales to watch the bare-bodied Keto Guido as he's known famously. But does he truly strip? 

Vinny is not a stripper in the truest sense of the word. Vinny has never shown his doodle-dasher at any of the shows he's performed at. Chippendales does not consider its stars to be strippers but they're strictly dancers and you won't be catching them swinging from the poles or providing a private audience to any of the patrons. 



 

What is Vinny Guadagnino's net worth?

According to Celebrity Net Worth, the 'Jersey Shore' star is worth $3 Million. His TV appearances on hit MTV shows including 'Double Shot at Love', 'Jersey Shore: Family Vacation' and many cookbooks including 'The Keto Guido Cookbook' and 'Control the Crazy' among others have contributed massively to his fortune.

The star has taken all steps to invest his money and grow his wealth. “I own houses, I like real estate but I have a financial advisor as well who diversifies me. I am like the most conservative person you will ever meet — I just have bonds and mutual funds,” he told Yahoo Finance once.
