The Masked Singer Sends Baby Alien Back to Space — Find Out Who Was Under the Costume

The Fox singing competition held its Group B Playoffs on Wednesday night

The Masked Singer held a Masked Jamboree for the Group B Playoffs on Wednesday night.

Serpent, Crocodile, Baby Alien, Whatchamacallit and Seahorse recalled memories from their younger years in the clue packages that aired before they took the stage. After each disguised celebrity performed, the Men in Black brought out a childhood clue to help give guest panelist Joel McHale and judges Ken Jeong, Jenny McCarthy, Nicole Scherzinger and Robin Thicke an additional hint about their identity.

Serpent started the night strong with a soulful take on the Maren Morris hit "Bones," and Crocodile continued the momentum with a unique spin on "Toxic" by Britney Spears. Baby Alien had the judges guessing everyone from comedians to football players after he sang "It's Time" by Imagine Dragons, and Whatchamacallit's "Money Maker" drew an equal amount of confusion.

Seahorse's version of Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On" closed out the night on a high, though. "She's the best vocalist we've ever had," Scherzinger said. McHale added, "I've never heard anyone like that before."

Despite a strong showing from all of the undercover stars, the judges and audience had to vote for their favorite performance of the night. When it came time for host Nick Cannon to announce who would be going home based on the vote, it turned out Baby Alien's performance was less out-of-this-world than he'd hoped.

The judges gave their final guesses as to who might be under the intergalactic outfit: Eric Bana, Jason Biggs, Jeff Dunham, Nick Kroll and Freddie Prinze Jr.

But the panelists' suggestions landed in a galaxy far, far away. Cannon and one of the Men in Black helped Baby Alien out of his costume to reveal former NFL player Mark Sanchez.

Of what he enjoyed most about being on The Masked Singer, the retired quarterback, 33, said, "Sharing this experience with my little man. He knows the words to 'Faith' now. He knows the words to 'It's Time' by Imagine Dragons, so we've been rocking out in the car. It's been fun. It's been really fun."
