“A++++++!!!”
That’s just some of the praise that “Masked Singer” judge Ken Jeong had for a Stoughton first grader who chose the actor and comedian for a school biography project.
Hadley Song, dressed in a costume that was half doctor’s coat, half Jeong’s judge jacket, spoke to her classmates this month about the actor’s medical degree and his love of comedy.
Got to watch Hadley present her 1st grade Biography project on her idol- @kenjeong @MaskedSingerFOX wanted a way to dress up as a Dr. & a Masked Singer Judge so we came up w/ this little number. She wants to know if she’s the 1st to do a project on you? 💕 @DaweDragons pic.twitter.com/nQdxxF41EU

Hadley — her mother, Courtney, wrote on Twitter — has been a “Masked Singer” super fan since last year when Jeong said that anyone with the last name “Song” had an open invitation to appear on the show.
That started a back and forth between the actor and the Stoughton family on Twitter.
Open invite!❤️🤗 https://t.co/Gol5s7G5iH
