Clues included: He comes from a small town, Cooperstown on a map, a lion, an astronaut and “I became my own boss, and eventually Hollywood - and even Forbes - took notice.” (My guess: Nada.) “I’m actually quite shy about singing,” he said… but the way he dropped into that choreography with ease leads me to believe he’s done the song-and-dance thing before - and well. (My guess: Her laugh initially made me think comedian Tiffany Haddish, but now I’m not so sure…)īULL | The evening’s best, by far, was Bull, who started his rendition of Train’s “Drops of Jupiter” in the judges’ box and owned every inch of that soundstage by the time he was done.
In the plus column: She worked Whack-a-mole into her choreography, and who wouldn’t love that? Clues included: “I’ve done it all… but there’s one thing I’ve never had a chance to do: be a mother,” a 1978 penny and Wayne Brady.
She made Night Angel look like a cuddly cherub in comparison! In the minus column: Her performance of Diana Ross’ “I’m Coming Out” wasn’t the most energetic thing I’ve ever seen. But believe me when I say I found it very hard to look Mother Nature in her unmoving face throughout the episode.
MOTHER NATURE | Why, exactly, this costume was so disturbing, I cannot tell you. I’m killing it so far this season, guys!) Clues included: “I reached success at a very young age,” gold teeth, “Everyone took me smiling as me not being serious,” “People wanted me out, and I fell,” blocks that spell ABC, “I’m a lucky guy” and mention of The Masked Singer being his mother’s favorite show. His take on Little Richard’s “Tutti Frutti” was surprisingly in tune, and undeniably fun to watch, but more in the “wow, I didn’t know my co-worker was so good at karaoke” way and less in the “wow, I’m definitely watching a seasoned performer” way. OCTOPUS | Whoever is inside the gangly sea creature either is super tall or is wearing stilts, which naturally makes me think he’s a basketball player and there naturally means I have zero idea who he is. Clues included: a disco ball, an electric guitar, a boomerang, and “I know a thing or two about defending myself.” (My guess: Nope. But her performance of Doja Cat’s “Say So” was strong hard to tell, though, whether the affect she used in the rap section is any clue to her natural speaking voice. PUFFERFISH | “My voice was always different, and not necessarily in a good way,” Pufferfish told us in her clues package. I agree with the judges that it’s probably someone of Mary J. Clues included: a train a newspaper with a photo of judge Jenny McCarthy and the headline “Has the Gold Ear Winner Lost Her Mind? ” Seoul, South Korea “There are always two sides to every story,” and mention of taking a break “to focus on family.” (My guess: No clue. D-vahhhhs = divas, I guess? Her vocals on Sam Smith’s “Diamonds” could’ve been a little better supported, but she seemed comfortable on stage if she’s not a singer by profession, she’s certainly sung in front of a crowd before. I didn’t get it until I pronounced “vase” the snooty way. SKUNK | Skunk seems like a diva - no judgment, she basically told us herself with that clue of a vase emblazoned with a big D. Read on for the rundown, as well as to learn who was actually revealed at the end of the episode.
But only one was unmasked, leaving viewers to have to come back for the premiere’s second half - airing Thursday at 8/7c on Fox - to find out exactly who was wearing that (truly terrifying) costume. Of the five new covert crooners we met during the hour, two were called upon to leave in the final moments. The Season 6 premiere on Wednesday promised a double elimination, and it delivered… technically.
