‘The Masked Singer’: Here’s who was or wasn’t unmasked in special ‘Maskys’ episode

The unmaskings required seven days off, as Wednesday’s episode of Fox’s “The Masked Singer” was rather an special one-hour sing-a-long edition that served as “The Maskys,” an award celebrating a portion of the season’s most memorable performances.

All things considered, they really spelled it “The Masky’s,” which is extremely questionable from a grammar standpoint. (Punctuations are typically for contractions and possessives, and once in a while for plurals. It’s the reason they don’t call it “The Emmy’s” or “The Oscar’s)

In any case, anyway to spell it, “The Maskys” also included a joint singalong to “Never Gonna Give You Up,” by Rick Astley, featuring recently unmasked VIPs Bobby Brown (Crab), Tamera Mowry (Seashell), Mark McGrath (Orca), Nick Cannon (Bulldog), Logan Paul (Grandpa Monster), Danny Trejo (as Raccoon), Caitlyn Jenner (as Phoenix) and Kermit the Frog (as Snail).

Panelists, Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg, Nicole Scherzinger, Robin Thicke and Ken Jeong additionally got seven days off from the speculating game. Host Nick Cannon was there and passing out the Maskys prize — which, he marveled, looked a lot like him.

New this season is the masked celebrity “Cluedle-Doo,” who has been offering extra hints about every contestant. Yet, as of not long ago, his identity has been kept completely under wraps. Here is the first reveal toward Cluedle-Doo’s identity: “I have a connection to another mischievious Masked Singer from the past: The Gremlin.” (That was Mickey Rourke, unmasked in Season 4.)

This current season’s outfits incorporate Raccoon, Seashell, Black Swan, Snail, Grandpa Monster, Phoenix, Chameleon, Russian Doll(s), Porcupine, The Piglet and the trump cards Orca, Crab and Bulldog. competition returns next week from now with Season 5 finalists: Black Swan, Piglet, Robopine, Russian Dolls, Chameleon and Yeti.

The Season 5 contestants boast a combined 26 Grammy nominations, nine multi-platinum singles, four Academy Award selections, three Super Bowl appearances, six gold decorations and two world records.

The show’s specialists are likewise once competing for a “Golden Ear” trophy based on their first impressions of each masked performer (which McCarthy won last time). Jeong and McCarthy Wahlberg each have two focuses up until this point.
