March 7 (UPI) -- Comic actor Kevin Hart performed Ne-Yo's hit "So Sick" while dressed as a book on Wednesday's Season 11 premiere of The Masked Singer.

The show is hosted by Hart's good friend Nick Cannon, who apparently had no idea he was under the mask.

This season's Masked Singer judges are Robin Thicke, Jenny McCarthy, Ken Jeong and Rita Ora.

Thicke laughingly called Hart's off-tune singing "one of the most charming performances" he'd ever seen before Hart pulled off his costume to reveal who he was.

"This show is all about the fun," Jeong added.

Hart wrote about the experience on Instagram after the episode aired.
