Holy reunions, viewers! The Masked Singer had its first guest judge tonight! Comedian Joel McHale reunited with his fellow Community co-star and Masked Singer panelist Ken Jeong for this evening’s excitement.
Over the past two weeks, two celebrities (NFL player Antonio Brown and comedy legend Tommy Chong) were forced to unmask. Only ten celebrities remain! Which celebrity was forced to unmask tonight? Read on to find out!
Tonight, the Lion, Deer, Peacock, Unicorn, and the Monster masks entertained the Community alums and the rest of the Masked Singer panel (Nicole Scherzinger, Robin Thicke, and Jenny McCarthy). The Lion went first tonight. In her pre-performance package, the Lion revealed her activist side in this week’s set of clues. She covered “Feeling Good” and blew the Masked Singer’s roof off! Jenny called the performance a “crazy vocal,” while Nicole loved Lion’s commanding presence. Meanwhile, the Community star stated that she was “more talented than Ken Jeong.” The panel predicted Kelly Rowland, Emily Blunt, or Hailey Beiber were behind the mask.
The Deer was the second mask to perform. The Deer teased that he made a ton of commercials and stated that he knows “how to throw.” The Deer performed Florida Georgia Line’s “Get Your Shine On,” and he was okay vocally. Joel McHale hysterically told his Community alum that he guessed “Ben Roethlisberger after a bicycle accident” and accused him of being Brett Favre. The panel also guessed that it could be NFL legend
The Peacock revealed that he had various incarnations of his career and added that there was “more than meets the eye.” He performed OneRepublic’s “Counting Stars” on a 30-foot platform. I loved hearing a different side to his voice and showcased his inner showman. Nicole called him “a natural born performer.” The panel predicted that the Peacock was either Neil Patrick Harris, Criss Angel, David Hasselhoff, or Sir Tom
The Unicorn revealed that she regained her confidence after her first performance. She stated that she would be “victorious” and vowed to “go for the gold.” The Unicorn tackled Britney Spears’ “Oops! I Did It Again.” The performance had both Community alums go for the binoculars. Jenny admired her vulnerability and called the performance “magical,” while Robin loved seeing her fierce personality. The panel predicted Denise Richards, Gabby Douglas, Mary Lou Retton, and McKayla Maroney was under the Unicorn’s mask.
The Monster was the final Masked Singer to perform. The clues revealed that he was a party monster and one of his dancers was wearing gold teeth. The Monster shocked the audience by performing Bo Bice’s version of “I Don’t Want to Be.” He blew me away! The Monster received a standing ovation from all five panelists. Robin declared the Monster’s performance his favorite of the night. The panel predicted that either Nelly, Derek Jeter, or Kevin Hart was under the mask.
After the panelists and studio audiences voted, Nick revealed that there was a two percent difference between the Bottom Two singers. However, the Deer was eliminated from the competition! Robin, Nicole, and Joel McHale predicted that Terry Bradshaw was under the mask! Meanwhile, Ken Jeong guessed it was John Elway. It turned out that Robin, Nicole, and Joel were ALL RIGHT! It was Terry Bradshaw!!!
Next week, the Alien, Rabbit, Raven, Poodle, and Bee Masks all return to compete!
