Savannah Chrisley is open to trying new things and embracing her “year of yes,” which is why she was excited to give The masked singer a shot.
While Savannah, 26, ended up being eliminated in the first round of Group B performances on Wednesday – during the show “Wizard of Oz Night” – the reality star and podcast host told ET she was glad she took the opportunity to do something new.
“It was a challenge, for sure, and I just closed my eyes and went for it,” Savannah shared, while reflecting on her performance of The Tokens’ “The Lion Sleeps Tonight.”
“I don’t have any real musical ability, so I was really nervous, but I like to say this is my year of yes,” she explained. “I’m saying yes to everything that comes my way. Be uncomfortable. Life is too short to not have experiences. So that’s where I’m at.”
For Savannah, a big part of the reason she decided to sign on to the show was her desire to bring some joy and levity to those she loves most — in particular, his parents, Todd and Julie Chrisleywho are currently incarcerated in federal prison after being convicted of multiple fraud charges.
“I love the fact that I was able to go through with it. Now all my friends are going to (be) dying laughing. It’s going to be a lot of laughter. My parents too,” Savannah shared. “They will laugh a lot because I have no musical ability.”
“So that’s part of the reason I did it. I was like, ‘My parents are going to watch this. They’re going to be a part of this,'” she explained. “It made every uncomfortable moment totally worth it.”
According to Chrisley knows what’s best star, she also wanted to set an example for her brother, 17-year-old Grayson, and her 10-year-old niece, Chloe.
“I tend to take life too seriously. And especially, you know, with my brothers, I want to show them, ‘Hey, you can have fun in life. You don’t have to take it too seriously, and these are memories that you will have forever,” Savannah added.
The masked singer airs Wednesdays at 8pm ET/PT on Fox.
