The Masked Singer Triple Elimination! Super 6 Knocked Down to Final 3 in Semifinals

Next up: Mushroom versus Jellyfish. The fungus led with their version of Amy Winehouse’s “Valerie” and added some beatboxing on the end. Jelly kept the momentum going with a sultry take on Rihanna’s “Stay,” but it wasn’t enough to keep her in the competition.

Lastly, Popcorn got the judges on their feet with her energetic rendition of Tina Turner’s “Better Be Good to Me” to battle Sun. “That was not a performance, that was a religious experience,” Jeong, 51, said. “We have never experienced anything like this on the show.” Sun opted for a more somber vibe with Billie Eilish’s “When The Party’s Over.”

“You have such a gift, like just listening to you, all I could do is just exhale and just breathe. Just listening to you, I could listen to you forever,” a teary-eyed Scherzinger told Sun. “You have a voice of the heavens. That was flawless.”

After the Sun brought some of the panelists to tears, they, along with the virtual audience, picked the golden star to move forward. Popcorn proceeded to remove her mask, and underneath appeared Taylor Dayne, who McCarthy, 48, and Scherzinger suspected.

“I had a ball,” the Grammy nominee, 58, said after popping out of her mask. “Nobody understands how amazing this show is.”

Dayne also expressed her love for the judges, admitting to them, “You guys made me cry under this mask so many times.”

Then Jellyfish wiggled out of her outfit to reveal Jeong’s guess (that Robinson copied!), Olympic snowboarder Chloe Kim.

“I’m such a big fan of all of you guys so this whole experience is just so amazing for me,” the gold medalist, 20, told the panelists following her unmasking. “… You guys gave me so much confidence after each week and it’s just been such a fun experience to be able to put myself out there, be vulnerable. I really, really appreciate it.”

Seahorse closed out the big night when she took off her costume and proved Scherzinger and Thicke right as pop star Tori Kelly was revealed.

“I thought it’d just be fun to come out here and show a whole other side of myself, be a little more sassy, show some choreo,” the “Nobody Love” singer, 27, said.

Kelly also looked forward to how The Masked Singer would impact her going forward. “I’m just excited for what this means for the rest of my career, too,” she said. “It’s all good things.”
