Hey!

All right, guys, head on up to the desk.

Let's get this thing started.

Audience, give it up

- for the panel one more time. - Thanks, guys!

- All right. - Love you, guys.

Dust off your boots and take a breath

of that fresh country air.

- We're saluting the heartland! - Yee-haw!

Oh, we gonna have some fun tonight on Country Night.

- Yeah! Whoo! - The Fairy is back to defend her title as champion.

- Nicole: Whoo! - Ken: Yeah!

Nick: But will the newcomers yank it from her hands?

- Ooh. - Now remember, the panel has the option

to save our eliminated singers this season

with the Ding Dong Keep It On Bell.

Nicole: Ding Dong Keep It On!

Nick: But after saving Medusa in round one

and Gargoyle in this round,

they only have one save left,

and it's for the next group.

- Ah. - As the reigning champion,

the Fairy is first up in this rodeo.

- Yes! - Yee-haw!

Here's a look at her climb to the top of the haystack.

Now take a gander.

You might gather some clues along the way.

♪ You're no good, you're no good ♪

It felt so good to take the champion title last week.

Linda is a dear friend, so I had to do her song justice.

She's been rooting for me since I was 13.

Linda Ronstadt is a friend of hers?

The champion of the night is Fairy!

You see, music is a huge part of my life,

and I'm loving every second I'm onstage.

But two new challengers are looking to send me home.

I say, "Bring it."

I'm so excited that tonight is Country Night.

There's something about country music that just sticks to your ribs.

Tonight I'm singing a song that I loved as a little girl

from an artist I still look up to.

It's a true classic in my book,

like this new clue.

Blue ribbon book. Maybe an award-winning author?

Any guesses?

♪ I am an old woman

♪ Named after my mother

♪ My old man is another

♪ Child that's grown old

Wow, that's a beautiful voice.

There's flies in the kitchen.

I can hear them now buzzing.

♪ And I ain't done nothing since I woke up today ♪

Her voice reminds me of somebody.

♪ How the hell can a person

♪ Go to work in the morning

- Whoo! - Wow!

Ken: Yeah.

Ken and Nicole: Wow.

So good.

I mean, she's got me fooled

into thinking she's a country star.

All: Fairy, Fairy, Fairy, Fairy, Fairy!

( chanting continues )

Keep it going for the Fairy, y'all.

- Nicole: Wow! - Nick: Panel?

- Oh, my gosh, Nick, with a voice like that, - Whoo!

Fairy, there ain't nothing you can't sing.

Robin: Uh!

It's the tone of your voice. I mean, I think you got--

I'm watching you, and I'm captivated.

You gotta be a professional, right?

- Has to be. Amazing job. - Ken: Yeah.

I just wanted to say

I sang that song for the first time when I was 11 years old.

So I had no idea what the lyrics meant or anything.

- Robin: Huh. - That's a clue.

But it stayed in my soul,

and this is the first time I've ever performed it onstage,

and I wanna thank you guys for that opportunity.

- Whoo! - Thank you.

- That's a clue. - That's a clue.

Could be a country singer.

So you already got 'em guessing. You guys wanna clue?

- Please. - Yeah.

- Ken: I want a clue. - Robin: Please.

We got a special guest.

It's stand-up comedian, actor, and writer,

Bill Engvall!

- No way! - Hey!

Jenny: Ay!

The legend is in the building.

What's up, Nick?

Good to see you, my brother.

Hey, let me show you something.

It's just about damn time

we got some Country Music Night, isn't it?

- Right? - Yeah!

Yee!

So true. Well, and long overdue.

Now, Bill, you got a clue for us.

- What you got? - Well, I do have a clue for you.

- All right. - Are you ready?

Yes.

- 21. - Jenny: 21?

- Or blackjack. - Oh, like Blackjack.

- Is that blackjack? - Blackjack 21.

Well, I know something about winning,

and with this hand,

I could really take you to school.

- Nicole: Oh. - Nick: Ooh.

That sounds like a good clue.

And let's give it up for the legend one more time,

my man, Bill Engvall. I'll take that from you.

Good to see you! Take care.

- Bye, Bill. - Came and represented on Country Night.

21, take y'all to school.

Jenny, are you picking up on any clues?

I don't know. I'm thinking, I'm thinking.

Nick, can I ask you, do you have a feeling you know who this is?

- I don't know. - Good.

I feel good about that. All right, carry on.

And I know last week I guessed Angelina Jolie

to a chorus of boos. Note taken.

- ( crowd jeering ) - So I'm gonna make it more realistic tonight.

This is Jennifer Aniston, and I'll tell you why.

- Oh. - Let me finish. Don't boo.

- ( jeering ) - I just said not to boo.

21 was a clue.

This is a fact. Look it up.

In 1990, she was 21 years old

and starred in the "Ferris Bueller" reboot.

Nepo baby, father famous,

John Aniston.

Duh-doy. Check that list.

She did sing with Dolly Parton in a movie called "Pumpkin," I believe?

- It was "Dumplin'." - "Dumplin'."

It was "Dumplin'." And the reason I remember that

I look at myself in the mirror,

and I say, "Oh, my God, dumplin'."

So I want a rebate on all those boos on Jen Aniston.

Jenny: All right, dumplin', sit down now.

I want a rebate.

That's one of your worst answers ever.

- All right, Nicole, save us. - Ken: Wow.

So last week we had the clue that she had a famous father,

and I was thinking, ah, Stevie Wonder.

He got nine kids, which is still less than you, Nick.

You got a lot of kids.

- Pew, pew, pew, pew! - Thanks, Nicole.

Both: Pew, pew, pew, pew!

All right.

And I know his beautiful daughter Aisha.

Oh.

Nicole: And she can sing.

They've actually recorded together.

- Robin: That's a pretty good guess. - Nicole: Right?

'Cause she can definitely sing.

Maybe it could be her,

but then I heard her sing country tonight,

and she said, "Oh, I learned that song when I was, what, 11?"

Ken: 11, yeah.

I was like, could this be Mickey Guyton?

The beautiful country singer herself?

- Oh, Mickey Guyton's amazing. - Oh!

I do know Mickey Guyton.

Ooh, so are you feeling that?

It could be, right?

It could be!

Well, I was on a-- similar with these new clues

and some of the past clues said

that she used to charge kids money to see her famous dad.

The book with the blue ribbon, and he's a best-selling author.

And there was a black panther,

and she famously dated Michael B. Jordan.

I think this might be Steve Harvey's daughter,

- Lori Harvey. - That's a great guess. That's a great guess!

- Robin: Which would be awesome. - Ken: Good guess.

Jenny: She can sing.

It definitely could be.

Whoever it is, you can be really proud of yourself

'cause we love you.

Yeah, I think you're one of the frontrunners, for sure.

Ken: For real.

Indeed. Ladies and gentlemen, keep it going for the Fairy!

Giddy-up on back, and we'll see you a little later during the vote.

The first time I heard her, I wasn't thinking country,

but tonight she really did sound like a country singer.

Yes!

I mean, Jennifer Aniston, what can't she do?

Oh, my God.

So you went from Angelina Jolie to Jennifer Aniston?

- Yeah. - No comment.

♪ Who is that?

- ♪ Who is that? - Hey, there.

Welcome back to Country Night here on "The Masked Singer."

Yee-haw!

Give it up for the Axolotl!

The "Axo-what-ol?" The Axolotl.

- Oh, my God! - Oh, my God!

Oh!

- Oh, my God! - Oh, she's tiny!

- Oh, my God. - She's tiny!

- Who's tiny? - A gymnast.

She has some muscle.

Nick: Wow.

What a costume!

This might be my favorite costume of the season.

- I love this. - It is! It is my favorite.

I'm so excited to be a part of your world on Country Night

as the Axolotl.

Axo-what?

I had to Google it too.

It's a mouthful, but she's very cute and rowdy, just like me.

Pom-poms? Who was in "Bring it On?"

But while I'm confident and all that now,

it took a long time to get here.

As a kid, I was bullied so bad

I had to transfer schools.

They made me feel so small,

and I let their words eat away at me so much

that's what I stop doing: eating.

I almost withered away.

Poor Axolotl. She had a lot of struggles.

Until one day during my darkest moment

I heard a song that helped me recover.

I fell in love with the voice and eventually the man.

He helped me realize the only way to make my life a perfect ten

was to build myself up instead of tearing myself down.

Now I'm definitely not the best singer to ever step on this stage,

but I do promise I will embrace my inner diva

and have the most fun.

- ( rings ) - ( laughs )

X-O-X-O.

- Look at her! - Oh, she dropped it!

♪ Under a lovers' sky

Oh!

Not the mic drop.

Robin: Not the mic drop. Wow.

Jenny: She's a hoot.

I'm sorry, but only a dancer/performer

- could do a drop like that. - Ken: Yes, yes.

All right, Axolotl.

Yeah!

I feel like Axolotl's really proud of herself right now.

- She dropped the mic. - Right? Yes, she is!

Look at all this good energy, panel.

I definitely can't fight the moonlight after that.

That is the cutest costume, great song choice,

great energy, dropped the mic at the end.

- That was so much fun. - Yes.

Robin: So charming.

Honestly, the fact that you started the performance

doing that little drop, I was like, ooh, man,

this is definitely a professional entertainer,

- ladies and gentlemen. - Whoo!

So you guys ready for another clue?

- Jenny: Yes! - Whoo!

It's wide receiver Robert Woods!

- Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey! - Yeah!

- Jenny: No way! - Oh!

Hey, hey, hey. What's happening? What's happening?

What's happening, what's happening?

Miss Axolotl, great performance, great performance.

All right, now, Robert,

I take it this is the clue.

Robert: This is it. This is it.

Nick: All right.

Robert: Behind this helmet, here's the clue.

- What is it? What is it? - 2.3 million?

- 2.3 million. Wow. - Is that followers?

That's how many people watch me when I work,

and that's just on a Monday.

On a Monday!

What's the wrestling thing that's on a Monday?

"Monday Night--" is it "Raw?"

- "Monday Night Raw." - "Monday Night Raw."

- Okay, okay, okay. Chill out. - Jenny: All right, all right.

Let's give it up for my man, Robert Woods, one more time.

Robert Woods!

So, Robin, what you got?

So we heard "total divas," right?

- So the "Total Divas" show. - Oh.

And then raw steak is because they do the "WWE Raw."

Oh, yeah!

And I think that this might be one of the Bella twins,

- Nikki or Brie Bella, right? - Ken: Yes.

That's what I-- that's what I was gonna say.

They're the most legendary divas.

They're the OGs.

Let me finish. Let me finish.

They're the OGs.

What the about the engagement ring with the musical note on it?

Does that go with either one of them?

Ken: Well, the music note, right, well, Nikki Bella,

she is married to Artem of "Dancing with the Stars."

Brie Bella is married to Bryan Danielson

who used to be in the WWE.

So I don't know if Artem can sing,

but it's definitely the Bella twins.

I don't think it's both of them, Ken.

It's only one person.

They're identical twins. I'll win either way.

It's definitely not either one of them.

How's that, ladies and gentlemen?

What do you mean?

Jenny: If I went with the clues,

I was really getting a hit.

My bell was rung for Alexa Bliss.

- Ken: Wow. - She's married to musician Ryan Cabrera.

- Oh, that would make sense. - Good. Alexa is--

- ♪ There is a ring with a musical note ♪ - Robin: She's married to--

She is currently one of the top divas

of the WWE right now.

And it said, "I heard his voice on the radio,

and I fell in love with it,"

so you would think that that's a professional singer.

Yes, and she overcame an eating disorder

and shared it and helped so many people.

Great guess.

Nicole, what you got?

Well, I'm looking at the clues. I heard "perfect ten."

We saw the gold bell, right?

For gold medalist.

Ken: True.

I'm getting gymnast.

So maybe it could be Simone Biles?

- Ken: Oh, she's a legend. - Jenny: Oh.

Nicole: McKayla Maroney.

Whoever you are, out of all these names,

I think you should be pretty proud,

and if Ken's wrong, please beat him up for us, will you? Thank you.

No, no. I bruise easily. I bruise like a grape.

You guys, keep it going for Axolotl.

Thanks, "a-lot-ol".

Men In Black, come help the Axolotl out.

Good job, Brie or Nikki!

♪ Who is that?

- ♪ Who is that? - Howdy, y'all.

It's Country Night here on "The Masked Singer."

- Yes! - Yee-yee-haw!

Flap your wings together for the Macaw.

Oh!

- He's cute! He's tiny! - Oh, it's an itty-bitty thing!

♪ Jungle boogie

Oh, he's little, little, little!

His head is the size of his whole body.

Such awesome costumes tonight, right?

Yeah!

I'm so excited to become the Macaw

because he's everything I'm not--

flashy, confident, and he sings country songs.

Even though I've been performing since a young age,

it definitely didn't start out as a passion.

My dad would bribe me with quesadillas

to perform at our local Mexican restaurant.

Salsa? Ooh, maybe he's a professional dancer.

And eventually, I spread my wings on bigger stages,

but the pressure to always be the good son

has brought me so much anxiety.

- Arrows? - One Direction?

But somewhere on the journey

of melted cheese and panic attacks,

I learned to take breaks and reset.

What started as a way to make my parents happy

turned into what actually fills me with glee.

This is the year I decided to be brave,

not only stage, but in my own life.

So this feels like the perfect opportunity

to put my newfound courage on display.

- Wow, that was amazing. - Really good.

Nicole: That was amazing.

Ken: Yep.

Thank you, thank you!

Wow, I felt like I was at a country concert!

The Macaw, such an amazing job.

Panel, talk to the Macaw about his performance.

Macaw, it is Country Night,

and you took us your country concert with that performance.

Ken: There you go.

Jenny: I was gonna say, Macaw,

you just might be the frontrunner tonight.

- Yeah, that was solid. - Really?

- Yes! - Robin: It was solid.

That was very, very good, my friends.

Thank you.

Indeed. Well, you guys ready for the clue?

Yes!

We got a special guest.

Come on out, American country music

singer/songwriter Deana Carter!

- No way! - Whoo!

- Oh, my gosh. - Hi, everybody! Hi!

Hi! Hey!

Yeah!

Hello!

Good to see you. How are you?

Hi, Nick. How are you?

Such a pleasure to have you here with us.

Thank you.

And, Macaw, you did a fabulous job.

Thank you.

You should come on the road and open for me maybe.

- Someday, maybe. - Oh.

- Ken: Wow! - Whoo!

The Macaw's getting a "ma-job"! I love it!

All right, well, lay the clue on us, Miss Deana.

All right.

My clue is a silver medal.

Jenny: Ooh.

Robin and Ken: Silver medal?

- A silver medal. - A silver medal?

It wasn't until I left the nest that I struck gold.

- Nicole: Oh, wow. - Jenny: Huh.

So does that mean he left his group?

Well, I'll let you guys ponder on that for a second.

Ladies and gentlemen, give it up one more time...

- Thank you. - ...for the one and only,

- Deana Carter. - Bye, panel. Thank you.

- Thank you, Deana. - Thank you!

Thank you! All right.

Panel, what you guys got?

You know, the dolphin is on my mind right now.

So the movie "Flipper," which had a star in it.

- Okay. - I'm going somewhere with this.

- Oh, really? - Okay.

Yeah, and he's been performing from a very young age.

He was also in "Lord of the Rings."

I think that's Frodo.

- That's Elijah Wood. - Ken: Eli-- ( laughs )

You know what? It's not bad.

But what about the silver medals?

Robin: I don't know.

Jenny: You know where the silver medals come from?

I think the Moon Men from the VMAs.

Oh.

And he went solo, and he turned into gold,

so could this be someone like a Zayn Malik from One Direction?

- Oh. - We did see the arrows.

- Ken: Oh, the arrow. - Jenny: We saw the arrow.

He also talked about having anxieties.

Zayn was very public about his anxiety.

- I don't know. - Why? What's wrong with that?

Nothing's wrong with it.

Oh, what, like, oh, Frodo's better?

Frodo, Frodo, Frodo, Frodo!

Nicole, you seem like you got something going on over there.

That's that look on my face, Nick.

What's that look mean?

Is that a Nic Tracy look? A Sherlock Sherzi?

That "Sherzi don't really know what's going on" look.

"Aw, you'll get used to it," said Ken Jeong.

Nicole: However, I feel like I know that voice.

They said they're not really used to singing this,

and I was thinking could this be Doug Robb from Hoobastank?

- The lead singer of Hoobastank. - Ken: Oh, Hoobastank.

- And that boy can sing anything. - Yeah.

He's got an unbelievable range.

I like that guess, Nicole.

- That's really good. - I think that guess is stank.

Did you just say my guess was a "guess-a-stank"?

You just said Frodo.

- Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay! - Hey!

In the clue package,

it said, "the good son."

Elijah Wood was in "The Good Son" with Macaulay Culkin.

- Don't play with me. - Ooh, ooh, ooh.

- Ken: Oh, look at that. - Jenny: Oh!

- Robin: Frodo! - Ken: Look at that.

You guys keep it going for the Macaw.

Very, very good.

That was "macaw-some."

We'll see you for the vote.

All right.

Studio audience, panel,

vote for your favorite.

The singer with the least amount of votes will go home tonight.

Coming up, we have an unmasking

and a fiery Battle Royale.

But first, Nicole Scherzinger and Ken Jeong

boot scooting on out to the break.

Go ahead, Ken. Drop it like it's hot.

Jenny: Oh, God, no. Please.

♪ Who is that?

♪ Who is that?

Welcome back to "The Masked Singer."

The results are in,

and one singer is about to have a darn tooting bad time.

Oh, no.

Did you love the Fairy, or is the spell broken?

Of course we loved the Fairy.

Is Axolotl getting the axe,

or is she getting "a-lot-ol" votes.

Will the Macaw be forced to squawk the line home?

The results are in.

Boarding the luxury pontoon out of here is...

...Axolotl.

- Oh! - Jenny: Axolotl!

Aw!

Nick: Y'all keep it going for Axolotl.

Fairy and Macaw, head on backstage.

The Battle Royale is coming up for the two of you.

Axolotl brought the energy, brought the fun.

Wow.

So cute.

We hate to see you go, but we can't wait to see who you are.

Yes.

All right, panel, it's time for your final guesses.

- ( sighs ) - I'll go first.

Pom-poms because she was a cheerleader,

gold bell for wrestler.

This is Miss Alexa Bliss.

Nicole: Wow.

Robin, what you got, man?

Well, I'm going on this total divas thing.

I'm thinking the raw T-bone steak

- is for the "WWE Raw." - Yes, agree.

The wedding ring clue is for her new show

about getting married.

I think that this is Nikki Bella.

Ken: Wow, wow.

Well, I noticed some cows in the clues,

which makes me think of milk and cheese.

And Brie is cheese.

- This is Brie Bella! - Robin: Oh, okay.

- Ken: Brie Bella. - Robin: You made sense.

- Ken: Yeah. - Robin: You made sense.

I'm the winner, Bella.

That's a big stretch.

Now, family, we saw a diamond ring with a music note.

Why? Because she's released music.

Then we saw a gold bell.

I tell you what, don't listen to my panel here.

- This is not a wrestler. - What?

This is a gymnast. And not just any gymnast.

This is gold medal Olympic gymnast McKayla Maroney, y'all!

- I'm telling ya! I'm telling ya! - Ken: Wow.

All right, well, panel,

you have made your final guesses.

Let's see if any of you are correct.

Everyone wants to know who are you?

Audience, say it with me.

All: Take it off! Take it off!

♪ Who, who, who, who

WWE superstar

Alexa Bliss!

Oh, my gosh!

Who would've thought?

- Nice. - Nicole: Wow.

Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg was right.

Alexa, what was your experience like here on "The Masked Singer?"

This was something that was personal for me

because I have actually crippling stage fright when it comes to singing.

I actually cried backstage before coming out here

'cause I was just so nervous,

but I am just so proud of myself

- because I conquered my fear... - Jenny: So proud of you!

...and y'all were so great.

Everyone was so awesome,

and it's just one of those things.

Like, I deal with anxiety,

and this was something that I wanted to show,

like, I can make myself proud,

and if anyone else is ever having something

where they're afraid to do something...

- Yeah. - Aww.

...do something every day that scares you

- 'cause I did this today, and it was so fun. - Yes, yes.

Mic drop. We love it.

That's what "The Masked Singer" is all about.

Now, Jenny, you were right from the start.

I know you, girlfriend. I am so proud of you.

Your stage presence, you definitely could tell you were comfortable onstage.

Onstage, yes.

And Ken was crying right before the show too, so it's normal.

Yeah. No, just real talk.

I'm a big WWE fan,

and I'm a huge fan of yours.

You are a role model.

I just wanna say, you're a true star,

and we're just so honored to have you here.

Thank you, guys, so much.

Nick: We love it.

Thank you for coming on to the show,

and we'll seeing you hanging out over there in our VIP.

Give it up one more time, y'all,

for the WWE superstar,

Alexa Bliss!

Whoo!

She's a world champion, right?

- Yeah, she's awesome. - That's crazy.

Our singers have one last hurdle until the quarter finals.

The Battle Royale is next. Don't go anywhere.

♪ Who is that?

( fanfare )

It's time for the Battle Royale!

Yee-haw!

Big applause!

The Fairy and the Macaw are about to do-si-do

in an epic brawl.

It's a do-si-do battle.

As the defending champion,

the Fairy will perform first.

The Macaw will perform second.

Let the battle commence.

Whoa!

You guys, I might have a new favorite!

Me too.

Wow. What a battle.

I wish we could ring the bell now.

Jenny: I know.

Panel, you guys got your work cut out for you.

What are your thoughts?

That do-si-do was savage, Nick!

It was brutal!

They were both unbelievable.

Amazing.

That was "macaw-some" is what it was.

Nicole: I feel like Fairy has been so strong,

- week after week, right? - Jenny: Right?

But then Macaw came out his first week here,

and he wasn't afraid. And he took that stage.

Yeah, it's just like this 50-50 night tonight to be honest.

I know, I know. I don't know what to do.

This is very, very stressful.

Ugh!

The panel look like they are a little perplexed over there.

- It's a tough one. - Jenny: Tough, tough.

But you know what time it is.

Panel, your vote will decide who will be this round's champion

moving onto the quarter finals, but remember,

there's no saving anyone tonight.

It's up to you. You know what to do.

Man, I "ma-can't" decide.

Nick: Will Fairy keep her title,

or is the Macaw the new head honcho in these parts?

Jenny: You know what? I was leaning one way,

but I think someone came up much stronger.

I don't wanna see Fairy or Macaw go home.

Can I "ma-call" it a tie?

Jenny: Yes!

The results and the second unmasking of the night

in just a few minutes.

Nicole: Oh, my gosh.

♪ Who is that?

The singer advancing

to the quarterfinals is...

Whoo!

Ken: Oh, dear.

The Macaw!

Yeah!

Jenny: Oh, the Macaw!

I thought Fairy was going to the finals.

Nick: Congratulations.

We have a new group champion.

Macaw, you're off to the quarter finals.

Head on backstage and enjoy your victory.

Whoo-hoo!

My man, Robert...

Robert: Great job. What an amazing song. Great job.

- ...is gonna crown you. - Yeah!

Here we go, champ.

- Nick: Let's give it up... - Let's go.

...for the Macaw one more time.

We'll see you soon, Macaw.

Fairy, we are so sad to see you go,

but we can't wait to see who you are.

We do. I wanna know who she is.

Panel, it is time for your final guesses.

Nick, I just wanna say,

Fairy, we are such a fan of your presence

and your voice and everything about you.

- This competition is crazy. - Yeah.

Okay, so I'm feeling like this could either be Tracee Ellis Ross

or Mickey Guyton.

But putting the clues together,

I think I'm kinda feeling what Jenny was saying the other night

with all the nepo baby talk.

And we saw the cop badge for her work on "CSI."

So I'm going with Tracee Ellis Ross.

I mean, I did like Tracee Ellis Ross.

What screwed me up, and what made me change from her

to my next guess is the fact that

she said in the clue package

that her friends would pay her to come see her dad,

her very famous dad.

Dad, yes.

So that made me go, "Okay, this could be someone

that we mention all the time: Jamie Foxx."

And he has a daughter who can sing, okay?

I think this is Corinne Foxx, everybody.

Robin: Not a bad guess. Not a bad guess.

Robin, what you got?

Robin: Well, first of all,

the Fairy said that she's a nepo baby,

and it takes one to know one.

And black panther was in last week's clues.

She famously dated Michael B. Jordan,

and she's a superstar in her own right now.

I think that this is Steve Harvey's daughter,

the beautiful and talented Lori Harvey.

- Jenny: I like that guess a lot. - Ken: Wow.

- I like it a lot. - Great guess.

Nick: Okay. All right. Ken?

Okay, she said she was the original nepo baby

and grew up with a famous dad.

But as famous as he was,

no one is more famous than she is now.

Oh, no. No.

- Fairy... - No, don't say it.

...is Jennifer Aniston.

- Wow. - Even Fairy was laughing at that.

- What? - Yeah.

Well, panel, that's it.

- Your final guesses are in. - Yes.

Let's see if any of you are correct.

Audience, say it with me.

All: Take it off! Take it off!

♪ Who, who, who, who

- Who is it? - Who is this?

All: Take it off! Take it off!

Take it off! Take it off! Take it off!

♪ I really wanna know

- Jennifer! - Who is it, Ken? Who is it?

♪ Who are you?

The amazing Holly Robinson Peete!

No way!

Nicole: Oh, my gosh!

I had no idea!

Do you swear? You swear?

- I swear. - No way.

Nick: Actress, author, singer.

This is family right here.

How did you guys not know?

I cannot believe it.

Ugh! Oh!

Wow.

- You had me. - What?

How did you not know it was me?

What?

I feel like I know everybody on that panel.

Nick: Yeah.

And nobody knew.

I know!

Nick: Wow. First of all,

let's talk about the voice

- on Holly Robinson Peete! - Robin: Wow!

- The voice. - Amazing.

- Holly! - Crazy.

We've seen you do so many amazing things throughout your career

from acting, hosting, being an author,

and we know you could sing,

but we might've forgot she could sing.

- Wow. - Wow.

I just wanna say,

your voice is so beautiful.

Thank you.

You just pulled us right in.

Thank you so much for gracing us

with your presence and your voice.

I've so enjoyed this. I mean, this was a lot of fun.

I was just about to say, what made you wanna do "The Masked Singer?"

I just-- I've always sort of been a closet singer.

I sang the theme songs to "Hangin' with Mr. Cooper."

Now I know what it's like to hang with Mr. Cooper.

- And "21 Jump Street." - Robin: That's right.

I sang the theme song to "21 Jump Street."

That was you on "21 Jump Street" too?

That was me! ♪ Say jump

♪ Down on jump street

- What? - I didn't know that.

And what was also awesome,

you won the "Sesame Street" Night,

Okay.

And you have a very special "Sesame Street" story.

So my dad was the original Gordon on "Sesame Street."

- He started the show. - Wow.

Yup.

He introduced all these characters.

Oscar, the first time Oscar sang "I Love Trash,"

my dad was standing there,

and he introduced Big Bird, all that,

so as a five-year-old,

to have your daddy be Gordon,

- it was just the most amazing thing. - Jenny: Wow.

So singing to Oscar,

talk about a full circle moment, so that was amazing.

Aw.

That's beautiful.

Thank you for sharing your talents here with us once again.

Ladies and gentlemen, give it up for Holly Robinson Peete.

- She was amazing. - You crushed it!

- You're amazing. - Crushed it.

Nick: The Macaw is heading to the quarter finals,

and next week we meet a new group of singers

as we jam out in our '80s theme night.

It's gonna be gnarly.

But right now, put your hands together

for the artist formerly known as the Fairy,

the one and only, Holly Robinson Peete!
