And then there were four!
Gumball, Poodle Moth, Clock, and Goldfish Mask have outlasted their rivals, and now the Masked Singer: Season 11 Final Four is one step closer to the finale! Which performer was forced to unmask and leave the competition? Who will be competing in the Season 11 semifinals? Did the panelists (Ken Jeong, Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg, Robin Thicke, and Rita Ora) correctly deduce the eliminated performer’s identity?
Read on to find out!
Clock returned to The Masked Singer stage, and her pre-performance package contained a piano. It revealed that her son works with her. She performed Gloria Estefan’s “Get on Your Feet,” and I smiled when I heard the song’s first four notes. I got chills as she sang one of my favorite tunes. I still believe that Disco Diva Thelma Houston is behind the Clock Mask. The Men in Black brought out an enormous phone that contained a message from her son, who reminded her that she performed for the Pope. Robin guessed Stephanie Mills, while Jenny stated it was one of the Sledge Sisters. Rita added Dame Shirley Bassey to the mix.
Gumball tackled Jason Mraz’s “I’m Yours.” He is a fantastic vocalist, but I still don’t know this performer’s true identity. Gumball received a phone call from his wife, Mrs. Gumball, who reminisced about his time off-Broadway. Robin mentioned James van der Beek, while Jenny brought Derek Hough back into the conversation. Ken mentioned Taran Killam, who appeared on both MadTV and SNL. He pressed the Prime button for an additional clue, and the box contained a kids’ doctor kit.
The Beets should be in Poodle Moth’s position (Rita Ora made a terrible decision). Tonight, she sang Jessie J and B.o.B’s “Price Tag.” Many Masked Singer fans on social media have noted that Poodle Moth could be Chrissy Metz, and I agree. Poodle Moth’s phone call was from her sister, who revealed she is a Golden Globe nominee. Rita guessed Sheryl Crow, while Ken suggested Riley Keough. Meanwhile, Jenny decided to guess Chrissy Metz (and she could be right)!
Goldfish was the final performer of the evening! The Group A champion sang Nat King Cole’s “Unforgettable,” and Vanessa Hudgens’ voice immediately gave me chills. She would be a fabulous Season 11 Champion! Goldfish’s phone call was from her boyfriend, who said that she was a phenomenal live performer. Ken guessed former panelist, Nicole Scherzinger, while Robin thought it was Hillary Duff. Meanwhile, Jenny guessed Julianne Hough.
The Masked Singer studio audience and panel voted to send Poodle Moth and Gumball into the SmackDown and the Clock and Goldfish in the semifinals. Poodle Moth opened the round with her country interpretation of Cher’s “If I Could Turn Back Time,” while Gumball infused rock into his cover.
The panel voted and sent GUMBALL into the semifinals, forcing Poodle Moth to unmask. Robin guessed Shania Twain, while Ken brought back Melissa McCarthy into the mix. Meanwhile, Jenny doubled down with her Chrissy Metz guess and Rita ended the round with Faith Hill.
JENNY WAS CORRECT, CHRISSY METZ WAS POODLE MOTH!
