The Masked Singer: Last News

s wild and unpredictable season is nearing its grand finale, as Wednesday determined which contestant would be taking the last spot in the final three.The Queen Cobras, Space Bunny and the Frog Prince all took the stage for the last showdown of Round 3, and each sang their hearts out for the chance at making it all the way to the end of the line.However, only one could claim the spot — meaning fans were in for a double elimination! Which also meant finally learning who some of the costumed crooners really are!After all three of the elaborately crafted characters sang their heart out, it came time for the three to go back-to-back singing alternating verses of Katy Perry's hit «Roar» — and all three slayed their performances, making the audience vote particularly difficult.However, two (costume) heads had to roll, so the first singer to get the proverbial axe was the Space Bunny!Before unmasking, the panel of celebrity detectives -- including Robin Thicke, Jenny McCarthy, Ken Jeong and Nicole Scherzinger — made their final guesses. While Jeong's guess of Owen Wilson was way off, McCarthy was closer when she suggested Sean Kingston.

Ken Jeong is really not holding back when it comes to his latest round of guesses on Wednesday's new episode of !In this exclusive sneak peek from the forthcoming episode, we see Ken piecing together all the clues after another performance from Queen Cobra — or should we say Queen Cobras, as they revealed in a surprise move last week, there are actually three costumed performers.Referring to some hints in the clue package that aired before their new performance, Ken surmises that the Queen Cobras might actually be three huge music megastars.«She said 'Bang!' [and] 'Wizard.' You know who's starring in the movie adaptation of? Ariana Grande,» Ken says, spelling out his deductive reasoning. «And three people sang 'Bang, Bang.' The Second person, Jessie J, also has a song called 'Price Tag!'» While it's clear his fellow panelists — Robin Thicke, Nicole Scherzinger and Jenny McCarthy — and host Nick Cannon, aren't really sold, Ken soldiers on to deliver the final piece of the puzzle.«But we need the third person? OK! Last week there was a heart [clue], and the person who wrote and sang 'Buy a Heart' was Nicki Minaj!» concludes Ken, explaining that she, too, sang on the hit 2014 single.«Bang, bang! I win!» Ken declares, as he fired off imaginary finger guns and blew smoke from his finger barrels, all while Nicole rolls her eyes.While it's unlikely, this isn't the most outlandish guess Ken has made in recent weeks.

an unexpected unmasking last week that sent shockwaves through the fandom, the hit Fox show returned on Wednesday and was back to business as usual with another set of performances from the third and final group of costumed contestants.Space Bunny, Frog Prince, Baby Mammoth and Queen Cobra — who turned out to be multiple contestants as multiple Queen Cobras, to everyone's surprise — all took the stage for another shot at keeping their masks on and getting to the finals.After all the performances were delivered, it came time for the audience to vote on which of the masked contestants should have to face off — and it all came down to Baby Mammoth (who sang «Me Too» by Meghan Trainer) and Space Bunny, who crooned Culture Club's «Do You Really Want to Hurt Me.»Finally, it came time for the final vote of the night and that spelled the end of the road for Baby Mammoth.Before unmasking, the panel of celebrity detectives — including Robin Thicke, Jenny McCarthy, Ken Jeong and Nicole Scherzinger — made their final guesses. The wild guesses included Reese Witherspoon, Kirsten Dunst and Rachel Ray.

Nicole Scherzinger seems fairly sure she knows exactly who is under the Baby Mammoth costume — and seems sure that the secret celeb is also related to fellow panelist Jenny McCarthy.In this exclusive sneak peek at Wednesday's new episode, Nicole is passionate about her guess, following a performance and some clues about Baby Mammoth.«I'm getting Melissa McCarthy vibes? Your cousin?» Nicole says, as Jenny nods and smiles.«Missy, are you in there?» Jenny jokingly calls out to Baby Mammoth, who stands quietly on stage next to host Nick Cannon.«Last week, in the clues, it said 'Cheer.' Little known fact, Melissa McCarthy was a cheerleader in high school,» Nicole continues. «Also, there was a match, and Melissa McCarthy was in with Sandra Bullock.»«It could be her,» Jenny says. «I could totally see her doing it, and her kids love the show.»«That's a good guess!» Robin Thicke adds with a smile.It's certainly a far cry from fellow panelist Ken Jeong's suggestion about the Baby Mammoth's secret identity from last week, when he guessed that it is actually figure skater Nancy Kerrigan.Either way, fans will be able to see Baby Mammoth face off against the Frog Prince, Space Bunny and Queen Cobra as 's season 7 competition continues to heat up on Wednesday at 8 p.m.

embroiled in controversy over one particular casting choice.Wednesday's new introduced the last five contestants yet to perform — including Frog Prince, Queen Cobra, Space Bunny, Baby Mammoth and Jack in the Box.After all the performances, it came time for the audience to vote and — after a particularly lackluster rendition of «Bad to the Bone» by George Thorogood and the Destroyers — it was Jack in the Box who got the boot.The panel of celebrity detectives — including Robin Thicke, Jenny McCarthy, Ken Jeong and Nicole Scherzinger — made their final guesses. However, no one came close to Jack in the Box's real identity.After the traditional chants of «Take it off,» Jack in the Box revealed himself to be none other than former New York Mayor and former Trump lawyer, Rudy Giuliani.The response to the reveal was mixed, to say the least.

Ken Jeong appears to be taking his guessing more seriously with a new slate of costumed contestants!Wednesday's new is set to introduce the final five singers that viewers have yet to see perform — including the furry, pink-costumed Baby Mammoth.In this exclusive sneak peek at Wednesday's, Jeong is turning the clues presented in Baby Mammoth's clue package — which seemingly included references to ice and a second-place medal — to inform his guess.«I first saw the ice, and ice in the clue, she even came out to 'Ice Ice Baby, ' naturally making me think of ice skating,» Jeong shares, working out his reasoning out loud. "«Everybody knows: Ice, skating, damage, knees.

 competition is reaching a fever pitch, and fans got their second double elimination of the season on Wednesday! Two stars went home, and the lone survivor earned a coveted spot in the grand finale.The remaining three singers from the second round of the season took to the stage to deliver their best performances to date, but fans still had to bid farewell to two.It all came down to Ringmaster, The Armadillo and Teddy in Wednesday's epic showdown. Teddy kicked things off with a memorable performance of Duffy's «Mercy» that proved just how legendary her voice really is.The Armadillo hit the stage next and belted out a raw, admittedly unrefined but powerful performance of «Amazing Grace» that left the judges in tears. Finally, Ringmaster closed out the first portion of the night's competition with a jaw-dropping cover of Dolly Parton's «I Will Always Love You,» that shockingly lived up to the vocal expectations set by Whitney Houston's iconic cover.

Ken Jeong is just trying to mess with his fellow panelists.The hilarious comic has cultivated a reputation over the past seven seasons of the show for coming up with some of the most unlikely, out-of-left-field suggestions when it comes to guessing the secret celebrity identity of the show's costumed singers — like when he guessed that The Baby on Season 6 was Gordon Ramsey, and it proved to be Larry the Cable Guy.In this exclusive sneak peek from Wednesday's new episode, Ken truly ups the ante when it comes to outlandish deductions after hearing a performance from The Armadillo that leaves him feeling sure he's got this contestant nailed.So who does Ken believe is actually under the undoubtedly heavy, intricately detailed Armadillo costume?«This is Al Pacino, and I'll tell you why,» Ken states with truly unearned confidence, as fellow panelist Robin Thicke laughs out loud.Apparently, Ken's entire rationale is based on a clue presented earlier in the episode that featured handcuffs.«Handcuffs! He was a cop in, and he was technically a fugitive in » Ken explains, as Robin sarcastically quips, «It's so obvious.»If you're somehow unsure of why it's so ridiculous for Ken to guess that The Armadillo might actually be the 81-year-old Oscar-winning film icon, take a listen to his performance of «I Fought the Law» from last week's episode.This week, the panel — which also includes Jenny McCarthy and Nicole Scherzinger — will get some special help from returning guest panelist and star Leslie Jordan (who also openly laughed at Ken's implausible guess).Fans will also watch as The Armadillo faces off against The Ringmaster and Teddy.

, and after all four costumed characters delivered their memorable performances, fans had to bid farewell to yet another one of them.Hydra, Ringmaster, Armadillo and Teddy took to the stage to belt their hearts out. After all four sang, fans voted and the bottom two vote-earners had to go head-to-head into another vocal showdown.Despite Armadillo's lively performance of «I Fought the Law» by The Bobby Fuller Four and Hydra's fun cover of «Sharp Dressed Man» by ZZ Top, they ended up facing off in a music showdown, and Hydra ended up getting the axe.Before unmasking, the show's panel of celebrity «detectives» — including Robin Thicke, Nicole Scherzinger, Ken Jeong and Jenny McCarthy, as well as guest panelist Nicole Byer — made their final guesses.While all of the judges correctly predicted that the Hydra was actually a duo and not a trio, despite the three heads, only Byer managed to correctly put the clues together.After figuring out how to unmask, the duo revealed themselves to be none other than magicians Penn & Teller!ET spoke with Penn about his time with Teller on the show, and the celebrated magician and TV personality reflected on how the costume itself was a bit of magical misdirection to keep their identity hidden.«If you look up duos in showbusiness, we pop up first on Google.

Unforgotten star Nicola Walker has opened up about the reasons why she doesn't think she's cut out for celebrity singing show The Masked Singer. Although the 51 year old actress has a secret singing talent, she revealed to us that she'd be "too scared" to take part in the musical bonanza.

, and after all five costumed characters delivered their debut performances, fans had to bid farewell to one of them.Despite her best efforts to wow the crowd with a performance of Carole King's «I Feel the Earth Move,» it was The Lemur who ended up getting the least number of votes and therefore had to unmask.When the moment of truth finally came, The Lemur unmasked and revealed herself to be none other than legendary supermodel and actress Christie Brinkley!Brinkley opened up to ET on Wednesday, and reflected on her time on the show, explaining how much she loved the experience, but was unhappy about her debut performance.«I was so disappointed. I felt like, when I was doing my performance, it wasn't coming together the way I hoped,» Brinkley shared.According to the actress, she had originally been given a choice of two costumes — either The Lemur, or a different character that she said was «a little more of a glamorous, fierce kind of outfit.»«I right away gravitated towards The Lemur,» she shared.
