That makes no sense. We've seen singers without their masks singing with audience:

First one I looked at. You can see him w/ no mask and the audience.

quote:

Now, it's time for the big reveal — the moment we've been waiting for all afternoon. My heart begins pounding as the energy in the room builds and the eliminated contestant is brought back on stage. The judges reveal their final guesses and it's time for the contestant to "TAKE IT OFF!"

"Who Are You?" starts playing, and we all stand up, emphatically yelling "TAKE IT OFF!" as the contestant wrestles with their mask. A camera person runs on stage to capture a closeup of the eliminated character struggling with the headpiece. This is it, I think as the music speeds up. This. Is. It.

Then out of nowhere, as if the entire set had lost power, the music stops and the masked person ceases to move. Nick and the contestant then walk off without explanation as Jay makes his way back onto the stage. Everyone lets out a collective groan before Jay even says a word. We all know what's coming.

We're not going to find out who's behind the mask.

Instead, Jay tells us that another audience warm-up comedian is going to act out the reveal, and when he raises his hands, everyone has to act like we're shocked to discover who's behind the mask. We do just that. Minutes later, the audience managers thank everyone as we exit the studio. But there's a select 20 or so people at the front of the stage who don't leave. Only these 20 — family members and other top VIPS — are going to see who's behind the mask. The rest of us? It's time to pack up and call our Ubers.

I assume this is filling the void that something that got preemempted by coronavirus shutdowns? Maybe that’s too charitable.

Also, RE: the songs/reveal tonight Bret Michaels singing Knockin On Heavens Door is basically like he got up there and sang Every Rose Has It’s Thorns. It’s practically a gimme

Fox is just like parody TV now. Was watching Bob's Burgers and they had an ad for some XTREME Tag show that looked like American Gladiators: Flag Football Edition. And then a show where these guys compete to artificially inseminate some lady.

Like, The Joe Schmoe Show is not sufficient parody anymore.

That's very much part of it. Considering some of the other shows on the network didn't even get full seasons or proper final episodes, they're going to drag out their already-in-the-can show as far as they can. Especially since they may not be able to get to filming a new season for a significant portion of time now, they'll do what they can to fill the time slot.

Our guest judge is pretty on the ball tonight with intelligent guesses overall.

Also the performances are flying by, we're not even 20 mins in and there's already been 3 performances.

Edit -> So I don't double post here, I'm sorry but has there been a lot more autotune/etc on Night Angel's performances as of late? I want to say it was one of their 2 previous performances, but it's really seemed so much more obvious lately.

Coming into tonight Rhino would have been my pick to go home but I think they got it right.

Night Angel keeps getting so much hype even though her stuff doesn't really do it for me on the same level of those three. They would be my pick too, though.

I’m fairly bored with the remaining contestants already, maybe because it’s pretty obvious who they all at this point.

Turtle: Jesse McCartney

Frog: Lil Bow Wow

Kitty: Jackie Evancho

Night Angel: Kandi Burress

Rhino: Barry Zito

I am rooting for the Rhino I guess?

I don't think Rhino is Zito. Zito is from Los Angeles and is only around 6'2. It's an interesting guess. But Rhino looks to be around 6'5 and has a bit of a southern drawl.

This was another episode where I am pretty sure Nicole got a whisper in her ear for her final guess and then was out of nowhere correct.

I think the order from here on out will be:

Kitty
Rhino

Frog/Turtle/Night Angel in the finale.

Turtle wins.

Also, Astronauts voice got much better when he wasn't behind that shield. I was surprised by how much better he sung when he was freed up to move properly. Frog seems to have consistently put on the best performances since Donny Osmond except he can't sing. So I don't think he will win.

I was really hoping that they'd eliminate 2 people tonight but I'm thinking it's just going to be the 1 at this point. (so 3 shows to go?)

Also not sure who is going so far for the night's performances.

Welp, that ruins my expected final 3 now, darn it.

With the remaining four and what they've tended to do in the past, I expect it'll be Night Angel and 2 of the male singers (even though I feel that the stronger final 3 would be Frog, Rhino and Turtle)

Rhino done next week.

Turtle is best all around.
Night Angel best voice
Frog is crowd favorite.

Rhino is...tall? Shrug.

Dunno, I'm with the people who want the best singer, not overall performer to win (on a show called the Masked Singer at least). I would take a grade A singer who stood stock still every performance over a grade B singer who was also an amazing dancer. I understand people who would prefer a total package, though.

I don't understand what keeps Rhino around the last couple weeks. He doesn't do anything that makes him stand out enough to get some side votes like Gronk was doing

So here I am catching up on season three and stopped immediately after white Tiger started and came to this thread to make sure we all agreed it was Gronk and happened to read who Bear is. I haven’t gotten to that episode yet and went to YouTube in disbelief. I turned it off after the first three notes and I recognized the song. I cringed so hard I need a chiropractor.

One of the hardest I ever laughed at this show was when Triumph the Insult Dog said, “I’m just going to guess David Hasslehoff because it’s only a matter of time before he’s on here anyway” because it just seemed so drat true.

The show has leaned real hard into the "MY JOURNEY" storylines this year, and oof. Apparently the producers think that's working though?
