‘The Masked Singer’ Week 7 Recap + An Out of This World Reveal Kyle Montplaisir 2 years ago Share Kyle Montplaisir | Talent Recap With half of the artists revealed, The Masked Singer is down to its final six celebrities. The Monster, Lion, Alien, Bee, Rabbit, and Peacock remain, making the competition fierce. Moving forward, they will each sing in every episode until the Finale. So that means we’ve got plenty of performances and reveals left to watch! Let’s see what happened on tonight’s episode. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBuY5Z2drL0 The Monster Clues: The Monster said being here has given him a chance to bring his true voice to the world. When he was a little monster growing up down South, he had to stay inside “because it was too dangerous out.” But when he discovered he had a gift, the Monster started “living the good life.” He even started winning awards! Then, out of nowhere, people started saying he wasn’t the real deal. It took him a while to realize that he couldn’t be a bad boy for life, he said while police sirens go off. So he decided to step back into the ring! The Monster said he’s “coming out swinging” as he danced in bright blue shoes. After his performance, he adds that his shoe size is 12. Performance: The Monster surprised everyone again, singing “I Love Rock N’ Roll” by Joan Jett & the Blackhearts. His tone is really great and you can tell no matter what he sings that he’s a born vocalist! He is the most unique performer left in the competition. Judges’ Guesses: Lil Jon, Mike Tyson, Tommy Davidson, a boxer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1Dx2iSPa3E The Lion Clues: The Lion talks about being “down in the cabaret bars in old Chicago.” The “GOLD FOUND IN HAILEY” newspaper is shown again. But she likes that people still can’t “say my name.” The Lion talks about losing herself in a famous family. She also references the Bluegrass state. The Lion is then handed an envelope that says “BLUE MOON” on it. She ends saying she has “true grit” and is going to “build her own empire.” For the Lion’s moment of truth, she said “I have a subscription to a monthly murder-mystery game.” Performance: The Lion chose to tackle a Lady Gaga song, “Diamond Heart.” It’s one of the lesser known hits by the pop star but she knocked it out of the park. The Lion delivers week after week. She keeps one-upping herself! I would be shocked if we didn’t see her in the Finale at this point. Judges’ Guesses: Mel B, Hailee Steinfeld, someone in Destiny’s Child https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4V3bhPgYvWc The Alien Clues: The Alien says not winning now would be “criminal” and she “knows a thing or two about the law.” She talks about crimes against fashion and falling off a runway. The Alien says, “Find us at 52’2′ N and 57’66’ E.” The screen also says “EST. 1956” and she says all calls are “$19.56/minute.” Her moment of truth was that she’s been on the New York Times Bestsellers List twice. Performance: This week, the Alien sang “Ex’s and Oh’s” by Elle King. It was one of her better performances because her voice lined up with the original! Her song this week was the first time where I felt it was actually too short. Everyone is stepping it up for the second half of the show! Judges’ Guesses: One of the Richies, La Toya Jackson, Paula Abdul https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSnLMtJqsbY The Bee Clues: The Bee talked about “getting her groove on back then” while people exercised and did synchronized swimming. She name drops a bunch of songs to throw us off, like “New Attitude,” “Superwoman,” “We Don’t Need Another Hero,” and “Giving You the Best That I’ve Got.” Then, the Bee says she’s singing a song by a “very close friend.” She finished her time on stage responding, “Actually I have 10 [Grammys]!” Performance: Now that the competition is getting tougher, the Bee opted to sing a song from her time this week. She sang “What’s Love Got to Do With It?” by Tina Turner. Again, like every other week, she absolutely killed it. Plus, it was fun hearing her sing an older, classic song finally! Judges’ Guesses: Gladys Knight, Anita Baker https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWDurcIJkCY The Rabbit Clues: The Rabbit mentioned standing out “all on my own.” He is shown with puppet strings controlling his arms. The Rabbit says it’s nice to finally be the puppetmaster! He says he’s prepared for this growing up in the Sunshine State (Florida). Being unmasked would “break his achey heart.” He closes out the package saying he is going from puppetmaster to ringmaster. His moment of truth clue was that he has 17 tattoos on his body. Performance: The Rabbit switched it up again, singing a sped-up, rock version of “Isn’t She Lovely?” by Stevie Wonder. It was a fun, dynamic performance. Plus, he put his own spin on the classic song! The Rabbit definitely takes the most liberties with the songs he does. In my opinion, that makes him super interesting to watch! Judges’ Guesses: JC Chasez, Joey Fatone, Donny Wahlberg, Billy Ray Cyrus https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0s8Gl8vf3FQ The Peacock Clues: The Peacock has been getting fanmail for a long time. In fact, he says he started off as a “show biz prodigy.” Then the screen shows a “DEPARTMENT OF YOUNG” sign and a photo of the angel Moroni (a symbol in the LDS faith). He has performed on stage, on screen, and he’s hosted awards shows. The Peacocks says he’s gotten a lot of fans throughout the year, including knights, kings, and queens. A card is shown on his vanity that says “A Big YAY!” At the end, the Peacock says his face has been tattooed on someone’s body. Performance: The Peacock closed out the show with “I Can’t Feel My Face” by The Weeknd. It was a fun performance with plenty of dancing! He is the greatest showman (see what I did there?) left in the competition. And the judges seemed to agree.

(Spoilers and Clues) Episode 7 Clues Being here has given me a chance to share my true voice with the world. I've discovered a vulnerable side that I never knew I had. When I was just a little monster growing up down south, I had to stay inside becuase it was too dangerous out. But then I discovered I had a gift and pretty soon I was living life. I was even winning awards But out of nowhere people started saying that I wasn't the real deal. It took me a long time to realize that I couldn't let them make me a bad boy for life. So I came out from under the bed and decided to step back into the ring. So tonight I'm coming out swinging. And I hope the little monster in me will be proud. Size 12 shoe. Was not on Living Color. What the Monster Sang - "I Love Rock n Roll" by Joan Jett Robin thinks he's definintely a professional singer. Nicole thinks he's a rapper or boxer. Lil John and P Diddy are both named. J.B. says he has the feet of a black man and names Mike Tyson. Robin suggests Tommy Davidson. Who is the Lion? (Clues and Guesses) Episode 7 Clues Down in the Cabaret bars of Chicago, I hear whispers and gossip as people seek me out. But I like it that they still can't say my name. Here in Hollywood, you can lose yourself in a famous family. It's not like the bluegrass state I've known. Sisters. I know I can't get too comfortable in the competition. It's scary (There is a picture of dominos falling in the video) But with true grit and a diamond heart, I'll seperate from the pack and build my own empire. I have a subscription to a monthly murder mystery game. What the Lion Sang - "Diamond Heart" by Lady Gaga The judges still seem stumped but names like Catherine Zeta Jones , Renee Zellweger, Spice Girls' Mel B and Destiny's Child are suggested. The judges also think it could be Hailee Steinfield because of the "true grit" reference. Who is the Alien (UNMASKED as LaToya Jackson) Week 7 Clues During the last performance I finally got the panel to recognize my voice and not just my body. Not winning now would be criminal … and I know a thing or two about the law. Welcome to Alien and Alien associates. Have you been committed of a crime against fashion? Have you ever fallen off of a runway? (The video shows a dolled up pug dog) Whether you're from the Bu or Moulin Rouge, find us at 52, 2 North, 57'66 E (picture says Est. 1956) We are the World's best law firm. All calls are 19 dollars and 56 cents per minute. I've been on the NY Times Best Seller list twice. What the Alien Sang - "Ex's and Oh's by Elle King The judges have no idea who it might be but Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton's name keep coming up as well as Paula Abdul and Latoya Jackson. Who is the Bee? (Clues and Guesses) Episode 7 Clues So far on this show I've been singing hits from today's music. But now that the competition is getting tougher, I'm going back to what I know best<doc-sep>But let’s live in the here and now. Things are flying along at a furious pace, with only six Season 1 contestants left. After Ricki Lake was revealed to be under the mask of the Raven last week, each of the remaining disguised crooners get a shot at stepping up to the mic. Curb Your Enthusiasm alum J.B. Smoove joins steady panelists Robin Thicke, Jenny McCarthy, Ken Jeong and Nicole Scherzinger as a guest, because why not?. Below, a breakdown of the shenanigans. Monster sings “I Love Rock ’n’ Roll” Monster tosses out more clues, including references to growing up in the South and winning awards. After his performance of “I Love Rock ’n Roll,” a song made famous nearly 40 years ago by Joan Jett, J.B. Smoove declares, “I don’t know what the hell’s going on around here, but this is incredible.” At this point I’ll mention that apparently gone is the Revealing Item wheeled out for each contestant in previous episodes. Now we’re given a Moment Of Truth -- and Monster’s is this: “I was not on the show In Living Color, but my shoe size is 12.” Lion goes with Lady Gaga’s “Diamond Heart” The clues package for Lion does all but shriek, “It’s Rumer Willis!” For instance, the 30-year-old daughter of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore was born in Hailey, Idaho (hinted at it in the debriefing of clues), has multiple sisters and half-sisters (also acknowledged) and spends time in Chicago (ditto) while shooting Empire. Lady Gaga's Joanne album opener “Diamond Heart” is Lion’s latest song of choice, and her performance causes J.B. Smoove to compare her to a piece of “gaudy jewelry” he would wear around his neck if he was a rapper. Fun! Alien attempts Elle King’s “Ex’s & Oh’s” Once Alien off-handedly mentions the figure 1956 during a fake law office commercial, it becomes obvious now more than ever that the lithe, red-suited diva is La Toya Jackson (who was born that year). A so-so jaunt through “Ex’s & Oh’s” follows, as does the Moment of Truth that Alien “has been on the New York Times bestseller list twice.” Naturally, you’ve all religiously pored over My Family, The Jacksons along with La Toya: Growing Up In The Jackson Family, right? Bee belts out Tina Turner’s “What’s Love Got To Do With It” Bee opts to sing “a sexy song from a very close friend.” Depending on which of the show’s experts you ask -- or which clues you choose to go with -- it’s either Gladys Knight, Patti LaBelle, Anita Baker or Tina Turner under that yellow and black garb. That Turner is the artist who recorded Bee’s song choice, 1984 chart-topper “What’s Love Got To Do With It,” makes no difference to the panelists; they’re pulling names out of a mental hat and probably just praying the check doesn’t bounce at this point. In her Moment of Truth, Bee is asked by Robin Thicke if she’s ever won a Grammy. “Actually,” she notes, “I have 10.” Rabbit reheats Stevie Wonder’s “Isn’t She Lovely” If it’s a Southern-fried rendition of “Isn’t She Lovely” you’re looking for, Rabbit has hopped up to the task. He drops more references to *NSYNC’s No Strings Attached era and being part of a herd before tearing into the Stevie Wonder classic. Between Nicole Scherzinger and Jenny McCarthy, they’ve zeroed in on the hare being either JC Chasez or Joey Fatone. Rabbit’s Moment Of Truth: “I have 17 tattoos on my body.” Anyone reading been intimate with the not-Justin *NSYNC members? Get at me. Peacock rocks The Weeknd’s “Can’t Feel My Face” Golly. It hits me that these are some of the most current pop songs The Masked Singer has offered up thus far. And by “current,” I mean they’re tunes from the past half-decade. Peacock, who says he’s been getting fan mail since he “was a wee little peachick,” knocks out an electrifying performance of "Can’t Feel My Face” that gets the audience on their feet. Jenny McCarthy tells the singing and dancing mystery bird he was “born to be an entertainer,” then once again suggests it’s likely Donny Osmond under all the feathers. J.B. Smoove quips, “I know this whole thing is a cult.” I ponder this for a fair amount of time.<doc-sep>The Masked Singer is in its seventh week, which means the competition is bare-knuckled… or as bare-knuckled as it can be when all of the competitors are encased in layers of spandex, foam rubber and synthetic fur.All six remaining contestants — Monster, Bee, Peacock, Rabbit, Alien and Lion — performed in Wednesday’s episode, which marked the first time everyone left in the running appeared on the same stage at the same time. Meanwhile, J.B. Smoove (Curb Your Enthusiasm) joined Robin Thicke, Ken Jeong, Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg and Nicole Scherzinger on the guessing panel. Read on to find which furry friend was stripped of a mask and shown the exit. MONSTER | “That’s a real singer,” Jeong commented while Monster jammed out to “I Love Rock N Roll” by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts. Meanwhile, given what we learned this week about the behind-the-scenes action at the show, I marveled at the one-eyed creature’s choreography, which involved a long walk from backstage to the main stage. (My guess: T-Pain.) LION | Guys, Lion mentioned being from “the Bluegrass State” and ended her clue video by talking about building “my own empire.” You didn’t have to hear her very strong cover of Lady Gaga’s “Diamond Heart” to figure out — and the setup package couldn’t have telegraphed more clearly — that she’s someone who was born in Kentucky (Paducah, perhaps?) and who guest-starred on Empire. (My guess, and it should be yours, too: Rumer Willis.) Popular on TVLine ALIEN | During her performance of “Ex’s and Oh’s” by Elle King, Smoove guessed that the pleather-clad extraterrestrial was Carmen Electra, but he must’ve ignored the frequent references to 1956 in the clue package, which is likely the singer’s birthdate. (My guess: La Toya Jackson, who was born that year.) BEE | Bee straight-up killed “What’s Love Got to Do With It” and referred to the original artist Tina Turner as a good friend. Despite the misdirection in Bee’s video — aka the oblique references to chanteuses like Turner, Anita Baker and Patti LaBelle — I’m still convinced that my guess is right. (My guess: Gladys Knight.) RABBIT | Rabbit rocked out to a frenetic, guitar-heavy arrangement of Stevie Wonder’s “Isn’t She Lovely” while a Bearded Lady and some female contortionists danced around him. Yeah, I don’t know, either. (My guess: Joey Fatone.) PEACOCK | The big bird performed “Can’t Feel My Face” by The Weeknd and did his usual stellar job, though did his choreography feel a little old-white-man-trying-to-nail-hip-hop-moves to you, too? (My guess: Donny Osmond.) THE UNMASKING | Alien got this week’s unmasking… and she’s La Toya Jackson, whom Scherzinger and Thicke correctly guessed during the episode. Now it’s your turn. Did you guess Alien’s true identity? Got thoughts on the remaining masked players? Hit the comments!<doc-sep>
Fox’s “The Masked Singer” is down to its final six contestants in Wednesday’s episode. Actor and comedian J.B. Smoove’s on hand as a guest judge this time around, and he’s there to help the others come up with some guesses about which celebrities are underneath the masks. Before we get to who’s sent home at the end of episode 7 of “The Masked Singer,” take a look at all the new clues given, so that you, too, can have a better chance at guessing the stars participating on the show. Monster (performed: “I Love Rock N’ Roll” by Joan Jett & The Blackhearts) Photo: Michael Becker / Fox He’s finally able to share his true voice with the world. He grew up in the south. He had to stay inside when he was younger because it was too dangerous outside. He realized he could sing and started making lots of money and winning awards. Eventually, people started to say he wasn’t the real deal. He didn’t want people to make him a bad boy for life. He decided to get out from under the bed and back into the ring. His spot in the next episode is teed up, so he’s coming out swinging. Moment of Truth Clue: “I was not on the show ‘In Living Color,’ but my shoe size is 12,” he shares. Celebrity Guess: T-Pain Lion ( performed : “Diamond Heart” by Lady Gaga) Photo: Michael Becker / Fox During the clue package, an old, fake black-and-white clip called “Lion’s Den,” featuring a cabaret bar in Chicago, is shown. She hears whispers and gossip, but people still can’t “say my name.” In Hollywood, you can lose yourself in a famous family. Her character in the clip is passed an envelope with the words, “Blue Moon,” written on it. She’s going to separate from the pack and build her own empire. Moment of Truth Clue: “I have a subscription to a monthly murder mystery game,” she says. Celebrity Guess: Rumer Willis Alien (performed: “Ex’s & Oh’s” by Elle King) Photo: Michael Becker / Fox It would be criminal for her to not win the show, and she knows a thing or two about the law. “Have you been convicted of a crime against fashion,” she asks in her pretend law office commercial. “Whether you’re from the ‘bu or the Moulin Rouge,” she says, you can find her and the law office at 52 degrees and 2 minutes north and 57 degrees and 66 minutes east. The fictional company was built in 1956. All calls are $19.56 per minute. Moment of Truth Clue: “I’ve been on The New York Times Best Seller list twice,” she reveals. Celebrity Guess: La Toya Jackson Bee ( performed : “What’s Love Got To Do With It” by Tina Turner) Photo: Michael Becker / Fox Since the competition’s getting tougher, she’s going back to what she knows best. She’s a queen bee. Is she bringing a new attitude, is she Superwoman, is she proof that we don’t need another hero, is she giving you the best she’s got or does she buzz around a different beehive? She’s going to sing a song from a very close friend. Moment of Truth Clue: She has 10 Grammys. Celebrity Guess: Gladys Knight Rabbit ( performed : “Isn’t She Lovely” by Stevie Wonder) Photo: Michael Becker / Fox He’s happy to be standing out on his own. Most of his career he was part of a group and had others pulling his strings. Rabbit’s shown inside of a barn-type location. He’s been preparing for this since growing up and hanging tough in the sunshine state. Being unmasked would break his achy heart. He holds out a plate of fried chicken. He’s ready to be the ringmaster, he says, while standing in front of a carousel. Moment of Truth Clue: He has 17 tattoos on his body. Celebrity Guess: Joey Fatone Peacock ( performed : “I Can’t Feel My Face” by The Weeknd) Photo: Michael Becker / Fox He’s been getting fan mail since he was a kid. He started out as a show-business prodigy. It led him down many magical paths. He’s performed on stages, on screen and has hosted award shows. He has fans all over the world, including knights, kings and queens. He looks at himself in the mirror. He’s ready to outshine the rest of the singers. Moment of Truth Clue: His face has been tattooed on a person’s body.
