00:02.
00:24I wonder who that is.
00:26.
00:33It's the semifinals of the Mad Singer.
00:37.
00:38Let's give it up for your top five.
00:42It's Catwitch.
00:46Hey.
00:48Crane.
00:51Yes.
00:52Picasso.
00:54Yes.
00:57Galaxy Girl.
01:00Hi.
01:01And Pangolin.
01:03Whoo.
01:08They're all so good.
01:10They're all so good.
01:11Tonight, these final five will become the final four as they try to sing their way to the finale for
01:20the coveted Golden Mask Trophy.
01:25Thank you all.
01:27Head on backstage.
01:29Amazing group.
01:30Bye.
01:30The most difficult yet.
01:31Yes.
01:32Love you.
01:33Yes.
01:33At the start of the season, our singers locked up their case files full of clues in the vault.
01:40And tonight, since we're so close to the finals, they're going to dig into those cases and reveal evidence so
01:47big, so personal, it will shock you.
01:50What?
01:51Up first, let's see Galaxy Girl open up her case file and fill in more blanks on her identity.
02:04The truth to my identity has been tucked away in this case file all season, but with the finale so
02:11close, there's a little detail I should probably share with you.
02:15This necklace.
02:17Best friends.
02:19Best friends.
02:20I've looked up to one star my whole life.
02:24By day, we'd sing karaoke in her convertible, but by night, she took the world's biggest stages by storm, and
02:31I watched in awe.
02:34I saw the awards, the glitz, the glam, but I also saw the public scrutiny, the headlines.
02:42I remember how much my heart would break for her.
02:46When it was my turn in the spotlight, I was scared to follow in her footsteps.
02:51But she prepared me for what was to come.
02:56And she's always been my guiding light.
02:59But that doesn't mean there's not some healthy competition, and that's why I want to get to the finale.
03:05I mean, she may be a massive star, but finally, in the whole galaxy, I win.
03:25I'm in the business of misery, let's take it from the top.
03:28She's got her body like an hourglass, it's ticking like a clock.
03:30It's a matter of time before we fall from now.
03:33When I thought he was mine, she caught him by the mouth.
03:36I waited a long mark, she finally set him free.
03:39She told them I couldn't lie, you have me all they want from me.
03:42Two weeks and we caught on fire.
03:44She cut it out for me, but I wear the biggest smile.
03:48One, two, three, go!
03:50Whoa, I never make you break.
03:53But I got him where I want him right now.
03:56Whoa, it was never my intention to break.
03:59To steal him all away from me now.
04:02But God, does it feel so good?
04:04Yeah!
04:04Cause I got him where I want him right now.
04:07And if you could, then you know you would.
04:10God, it just feels so...
04:16Just feels so good.
04:19Oh, yes, it does.
04:23I watched his wildest dreams come true.
04:26Not one of them involving you.
04:29Just watched my wildest dreams come true.
04:31Not one of them involving you.
04:35Whoa, I never meant to break.
04:38But I got him where I want him right now.
04:40Whoa, it was never my intention to break.
04:43To steal him all away from me now.
04:45Come on!
04:46God, does it feel so good?
04:49Cause I got him where I want him right now.
04:51And if you could, then you know you would.
04:55God, it just feels so...
04:57Oh!
05:00Just feels so good.
05:03Just feels so good.
05:06Just feels so good.
05:07Just feels so good!
05:11Yes!
05:14She came to win!
05:16She came to win!
05:17She came to win!
05:20Out of this world, galaxy girl, y'all!
05:24Yeah!
05:24Galaxy girl!
05:25That was great.
05:26I'm done!
05:27Rita, talk to galaxy girl!
05:29Yes, yes, yeah!
05:30I don't know about you guys, but I am on a high right now!
05:33Yes!
05:34That was literally...
05:35I'm buzzing.
05:36I mean, you have found your identity.
05:38Like, you are in your element right now.
05:40And I'm just so honored to be a part of this journey with you.
05:43We're on a ride!
05:44Well said.
05:47Indeed, indeed.
05:48And now, to get us closer to their identities, each singer will reveal which detective they have a personal connection
05:58to.
05:58Woo!
05:59Then, that panelist will get 25 seconds to ask whatever questions they want.
06:07Nice!
06:08So, let's kick this off.
06:10Galaxy girl, who are you connected to?
06:13Well, actually, Nick, it's you!
06:16What?
06:17What?
06:18Me?
06:18Nick!
06:19That doesn't narrow it down.
06:22At all.
06:23All right, but look.
06:24I guess I'll show them how it's done.
06:27I'll be the first example.
06:28Galaxy girl, are you ready?
06:30Yes.
06:30All right, 25 seconds on the clock.
06:33Start the clock!
06:34Uh, are we friends in the real world?
06:37Kind of.
06:37I mean, you're definitely closer to my husband.
06:40Oh!
06:42So, so do we go far back?
06:44Well, we go back, like, early 2000s.
06:47Early 2000s, close to her husband.
06:49Uh, so clearly we partied together.
06:52Um, I think you probably partied with my husband.
06:55Not really me.
06:57Have you ever been on Wild N Out?
06:58No, but you've never invited me.
07:01Oh!
07:01Time is up!
07:02Time is up, Nick!
07:04Time is up!
07:06I get it!
07:08All right, I think I might know who this is.
07:11Really?
07:13Oh!
07:13Did it help you at all?
07:15The voice just tonight sold it for me.
07:17Right.
07:17You remember what I said to you?
07:19I think Cat Witch has something going on in the show.
07:24Yes.
07:24With Stingray.
07:25Correct.
07:25I actually think the relationship between Stingray,
07:31who was Evan Ross, is with Galaxy Girl.
07:34Oh!
07:35And also, I know for a fact he's friends with Nick.
07:38Whoa!
07:38You see what I'm saying?
07:39It does.
07:40It actually does match.
07:41And to me, that makes it go, ding!
07:44Ashley Simpson!
07:45Ashley Simpson!
07:47Whoa!
07:48Really?
07:49A wonderful guest.
07:51Robin, what you got?
07:52Yeah, Robin, what you got?
07:53I'm sorry, Galaxy Girl.
07:54I think my co-panelists are Milky Way off.
07:57Oh!
07:58That's so good, Robin!
08:00Okay.
08:02Tonight, it made me think of somebody else.
08:05Now that this connection with a best friend or a sibling.
08:10A few seasons ago, we had Strawberry Shortcake, who was AJ Machaca.
08:14Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah!
08:15Remember from the band Ali and AJ?
08:17Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
08:17Yes, yes, yeah, yeah.
08:18So I think this could be Ali Machaca.
08:21Ali!
08:21That's right!
08:22Good guess.
08:23Well, Galaxy Girl definitely gave an amazing performance.
08:27Great job!
08:29Men in Black, Oprah out.
08:35Jen, if we're right, like, I don't think there's ever been in history like a husband and
08:39wife competing.
08:40Right, that's gonna make for a tough family dinner.
08:43Let's see what happens!
08:54Welcome back to the semifinals on The Masked Singer, where our detectives love clues more
09:00than single ladies love horoscopes.
09:03What?
09:04You know what else everyone loves?
09:07Pangolin!
09:08It's time to open up her case file.
09:15At the start of the season, I locked up my case file, full of clues.
09:20But if you want to get closer to my identity, take a look at these headlines.
09:25My best friend in the whole world was my nana.
09:28She would carry news clippings of me and force people to read them.
09:32Like, have you heard about my granddaughter?
09:35She's on the Emmys!
09:37Emmys?
09:37She was feisty, funny, and full of heart.
09:41I lost her a few years ago.
09:44And I miss her every day.
09:45Like, when I became a mom, I went through a really tough time.
09:49I would sit there wondering how I'd get through.
09:52But then I'd think about nana.
09:54I could almost hear her saying, you got this sugar plum.
09:57And it really did get me through.
10:00And you know what?
10:01That fierceness, it runs in the family.
10:04And it's what's driving me now to make new headlines.
10:07To fight and get to that finale.
10:10Because nana raised a winner!
10:12I hope that I'm raising some too.
10:21Ay, Pablo! How could you?
10:25Esme!
10:27Get out!
10:27Tú es mi amor, ¿por qué?
10:31Pasión de Pangolet.
10:36Lay a whisper on my pillow.
10:40Leave the winter on the ground.
10:47I wake up lonely.
10:50This air of silence in the bedroom.
10:57And all around, touch me now.
11:02I close my eyes and dream away.
11:09Oh.
11:11It must have been love.
11:13Oh!
11:14But it's over now.
11:17It was all that I wanted.
11:20Now I'm living without.
11:22It must have been love.
11:25But it's over now.
11:34It's all that I wanted.
11:37Now I'm living without.
11:40Hey, it must have been love.
11:43But it's over now.
11:46It was all that I wanted.
11:49Now I'm living without.
11:51Now I'm living without.
11:55Now I'm living without.
11:57Now I'm living without.
12:01Now I'm living without.
12:04Now I'm living without.
12:09Now I'm living without.
12:10Now I'm living without.
12:10Now I'm living without.
12:11Now I'm living without.
12:11Now I'm living without.
12:11Now I'm living without.
12:11Now I'm living without.
12:15Now I'm living without.
12:18Oh, my God.
12:20Like butter.
12:21It's so good.
12:23Pangolin definitely wants a spot in the finale.
12:27This is going to be very hard.
12:30Who is this?
12:32Well, y'all keep it going.
12:35For Pangolin.
12:38Robin, talk to her.
12:39I love it.
12:40I love the drama and the theater and the novella,
12:43and I could really feel the passion, the intention.
12:47I could feel that in your vocal.
12:48Great job.
12:49Wow.
12:49Great job, Robin.
12:53Okay.
12:54Let's start wrangling some questions for Pangolin.
12:58All right, Pangolin, who do you have a connection with in the panel?
13:02This person and I have been on camera together.
13:05Ken!
13:06Ken?
13:07Oh, my God.
13:08You have a friend.
13:10Wow.
13:11All right, Ken, you're up.
13:12Use it wisely, Ken.
13:15Okay, let's start the clock.
13:17Were you in K-pop Demon Hunters?
13:19Oh, my girls would love that, but no.
13:22Were you in Crazy Rich Asians with me?
13:24No.
13:25Are you just staying in your movies?
13:27We're...
13:27Let me finish.
13:28Not just movies.
13:29So we have been on TV together.
13:31Yes, we have.
13:32And how did I do with my performance?
13:34Oh, my gosh.
13:34Ken!
13:36Absolutely riveting.
13:37Couldn't look away.
13:38Okay.
13:38Not about me.
13:39Hey, what do you think of my guesses so far?
13:41Okay.
13:42Oh, my God.
13:43That was not helpful at all.
13:43I didn't have enough time, Nick.
13:45Super helpful.
13:47We've learned absolutely nothing.
13:48Yeah, we didn't learn anything.
13:50Maybe Pangolin was in the eye drops commercial you did.
13:53Oh, well, talk to your doctor first to see if it was great for you.
13:56That's right.
13:57Yeah.
13:58All right, Ken.
13:59Well, did that help you?
14:00You know, real talk, the voice is so good.
14:04Uh-huh.
14:04This could be Lea Michele of Glee that I also guest starred on.
14:09Oh.
14:10She has been on the Emmy.
14:12She's been nominated many times.
14:14Right?
14:15You saved yourself.
14:17You got it.
14:18And I learned all that from my questions.
14:22All right, Jenny, what you got?
14:23So, you know, I actually thought it was Christina Perry, but then she showed up as a clue.
14:27So that went out the window.
14:29I go, okay, who has Christina Perry toured with?
14:32Mmm.
14:33So we haven't mentioned Rachel Platten yet, White Song.
14:36So I'm going to go with Rachel Platten today.
14:39Good job.
14:41All right.
14:41I worked with Rachel Platten.
14:43You did work with Rachel?
14:44I believe so, yes.
14:45Well, then I'm a little bit closer.
14:47Y'all keep it going for Pangolin.
14:50We got no help from Ken, but we got lots of love from Pangolin.
14:57Men in Black, help her out.
15:08Welcome back to the semifinals on The Masked Singer.
15:12Our next celebrity singer has been lighting up the stage all season.
15:17Let's find out more while Crane reopens her case file.
15:28Tonight, if you really want to get to know me, you'll need to open the case file and take a
15:33deeper look at my DNA.
15:36When I had my breakout success, we're talking multi-planet.
15:41Whoa.
15:41Okay, so he's killing it.
15:43There was so much pressure to strike while the iron was hot.
15:47But behind closed doors, my world was falling apart.
15:51Both of my parents were sick.
15:54I had to be there for them.
15:57But when I'd share my work with them, I could see joy.
16:02I didn't realize it, but I was inspiring them to fight.
16:06And seeing their light pushed me to keep fighting too.
16:12We leaned on each other.
16:14And after several difficult years, we can finally take a deep breath.
16:19That's why I want to make it to the finale.
16:22They get so much joy watching me do my thing.
16:24And I'm determined to show them the same strength they've shown me.
16:28Because being a fighter is in my blood.
16:45If you want it, take it.
16:49I should have said it before.
16:52Try to hide it, fake it.
16:56Baby, I can't pretend anymore.
17:01I only want to die alive.
17:04Never by the hands of a broken heart.
17:08I don't want to hear you lie tonight.
17:11Now that I've become who I really am.
17:18This is the part when I say I don't want you.
17:23I'm stronger than I've been before.
17:25This is the part when I break free.
17:29Cause I can't resist it no more.
17:33This is the part when I say I don't want you.
17:37I'm stronger than I've been before.
17:40This is the part when I break free.
17:44Cause I can't resist it no more.
17:50I thought of your body.
17:52I came alive.
17:53I'm alive.
17:55It was little.
17:57It was fatal.
17:59It was fatal.
17:59And my dreams it felt so right.
18:02But I woke up every time.
18:06going away.
18:11Oh, this is the part when I can't resist it no more.
18:31I'm stronger than I've been before.
18:37But I can't resist it
18:42Look at that!
18:46Whoa!
18:49That's how you got your way to the finale!
18:52That literally finished on a high note.
18:55That's right!
18:56You're gonna keep it going for Crane!
18:59Oh!
19:00Oh!
19:02Crane, first of all, your story about being a fighter
19:05and you came out here fighting,
19:06going, no, I'm going home with this trophy.
19:09The song is perfect, break free.
19:10I think you broke free of the competitors
19:13and are making it all the way to the finale.
19:17Well said, well said.
19:18Okay, Crane, who do you have a connection with on the panel?
19:23Well, I would say Miss Rita.
19:26No, really?
19:27Rita!
19:28We love a little healthy competition.
19:31Healthy competition.
19:32Okay, Rita, you get 25 seconds
19:35to ask Crane whatever you want.
19:36Healthy competition.
19:37Ah!
19:37I'm panicking!
19:38Are you ready?
19:39Let's put 25 seconds on the card.
19:41Why am I standing up?
19:43Go!
19:45Have you been a part of a show
19:46that I was a judge on?
19:47Like The Voice?
19:48No.
19:49Okay.
19:49Have we done a film together?
19:51No.
19:53Have we partied together once in a blue moon?
19:55No comment.
19:57Okay, how do we know each other?
19:59We were on TV together.
20:00Was it a talk show?
20:01Not a talk show.
20:03We were competing.
20:04Okay.
20:05Wait, what show?
20:05What show?
20:06I can't tell you.
20:07I can't tell you real.
20:08She's there competing.
20:10Ow!
20:12You did good, though.
20:14You did good.
20:14You know what, Rita?
20:15You did better than Ken, at least.
20:16I'm sweating.
20:17You did way better than Ken.
20:18I'm sweating in places I didn't even know I had.
20:20Okay.
20:21All right.
20:21Did that help you out at all, though?
20:23Well, there's only a few people
20:24that can put their leg up that high.
20:26But I know what I've seen music videos for.
20:28One's Tate McRae, and one is Normani.
20:33Normani, I actually think we did do a TV show together.
20:36Or could it have been an awards show
20:38where you guys were both nominated?
20:40Healthy competition.
20:41Healthy competition.
20:42Good job, Daddy.
20:43Well, I think that might...
20:45Ken, I think I'm torn because Halle Bailey,
20:48I just saw at this, like, dinner party thing
20:50that I was just at, and she didn't talk to me.
20:52So I was like, maybe she knows it's her.
20:55Maybe I know she knows that I know it's her.
20:57You see what I'm saying?
20:58And then maybe...
20:59That old scheme.
20:59You know that whole thing?
21:00Yeah.
21:01So I don't know.
21:01I'm torn between Normani and Halle Bailey,
21:03and I feel like I don't know
21:05if Halle can kick her leg up that high.
21:07Like, that's a real high kick.
21:09I agree with Rita,
21:11because only a couple of people can kick like this,
21:14like how she did.
21:15Me.
21:16Hey, man, you're not supposed to laugh there.
21:18Wait, did your foot even go above the...
21:20You know what?
21:20I just pulled a hammy, but enough about me.
21:23That was a, like, a scissor kick.
21:26And you know who can pull a scissor kick?
21:28Who's that, Ken?
21:28Scissor.
21:29That's who I think this is.
21:32Scissor kick.
21:33You're welcome, America.
21:36Those are all good guesses.
21:38Even Ken's isn't even that bad.
21:41Thank you, Daddy.
21:42All right, that was an amazing performance
21:45from Crane.
21:47Men in Black, help her out.
21:51I feel like any one of them could win right now.
21:54You know what would be really helpful
21:55is if one of them stunk.
21:58That's just Ken's aftershave.
21:59All right.
22:05Welcome back to the semifinals of The Masked Singer.
22:10He's literally the last man standing in the competition.
22:13Yes.
22:14But who is hiding under that mask?
22:17Let's watch as Picasso opens up his case file.
22:25America, all season you've been trying to close the case on me.
22:29So let me give you a peek into my file.
22:32Roll the tape.
22:34Hey, guys.
22:35My name is...
22:36I would love to be a part of The Masked Singer.
22:38See, there was a moment when everyone in America
22:40had their eyes on me.
22:42Suddenly, this hometown boy was thrown into interviews
22:45and photo shoots.
22:46The problem is, I've always thought of myself as a musician,
22:49not a celebrity.
22:51I work really hard to keep my life as normal as possible
22:54for me and my family.
22:55I mean, my own kid doesn't know I'm famous.
22:58Wow, that's a good clue.
23:00That is a good clue.
23:01So you can imagine, I would love to do the show.
23:04And now, I feel lucky to have been chosen.
23:08The best thing is, it's been about the art.
23:11Music.
23:12And that's why I want to make it to the finale.
23:14This has allowed me to do what I do best.
23:25The sun is going down, time is running out,
23:29no one else around but me.
23:33Steady losing light, steady losing my mind,
23:37moving shadows and grinding teeth.
23:40Without you, there ain't no place for me to hide.
23:44Without you, there's no way I can sleep tonight.
23:48What I do, for a little bit of peace and quiet.
23:52Without you, I keep slipping in the bad dreams.
23:58Where there's no you and I.
24:02No sound when I cry.
24:05I love you and I need you to set me free
24:09From all the days, all the days, all the days.
24:14Waiting on the other side.
24:17No sound when I cry.
24:20I love you and I need you to set me free
24:24From all the days, all the days.
24:27From all the days, all the days.
24:28Oh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
24:32There are dreams.
24:34Oh, ooh, without you, there's no ways I can sleep tonight.
24:38Without you, there's no way I can be tonight.
24:42What I do, for a little bit of peace and quiet.
24:46Without you, I, I keep slipping in the bad dreams.
24:51But there's no you and I.
24:55No sound when I cry.
24:59I love you and I need you to set me free
25:03From all of these old bad dreams.
25:07Waiting on the other side.
25:11No sound when I cry.
25:14I love you and I need you to set me free
25:18From all the days, all the days, all the days, all.
25:28Wow.
25:29Wow.
25:32Pug Caso can take it all the way.
25:34Oh, I, easily.
25:36Keep it going for Pug Caso.
25:40Pug Caso, your voice is a work of art.
25:44You're so effortless.
25:45You make everything easy.
25:46When you, now, when I think about the season,
25:48You are low-key, for me, the favorite to win it all.
25:52I want it now.
25:52Amazing job.
25:55Okay, well, let's find out which detective Pug Caso
25:59Has a connection to.
26:00Who is it?
26:02Oh, well, this person and I have shared a stage together.
26:07And it's Jenny.
26:09Jenny?
26:09What?
26:10All right, Jenny.
26:11Jenny, well, you have 25 seconds.
26:13Okay.
26:14Make it count.
26:15Oh, these are gonna be good.
26:16Start the clock.
26:17Okay.
26:17Have we ever, we have met before on a stage?
26:20We've met on a stage before.
26:22Okay, have we ever dated, though?
26:25Uh, no.
26:26Have, did we ever present an award together?
26:29No.
26:30Okay, were we ever in the same TMZ story together?
26:33No, I don't think so.
26:34Okay, did I ever interview you on MTV or my radio show or The View?
26:38Maybe introduce you on one of those?
26:41Maybe.
26:42Oh!
26:44Time's up.
26:45Give it up for Jenny.
26:46Those are some good questions right there.
26:49Did any of that help you out?
26:51Well, if I look back at, like, The View,
26:53the people that I remember introducing are, like, Michael Bublé,
26:57John Legend.
26:58But then I also forgot, for 10 years, I hosted New Year's Rockin' Eve,
27:02and I introduced a lot of people.
27:03But it could be someone like a Shea Mooney.
27:06Okay.
27:07Dan and Shea.
27:08Yes, yes, yes, yes.
27:08Dan and Shea.
27:09That's a good guess.
27:10That's where I'm leaning right now, but I feel like I am so close.
27:13Definitely a good guess.
27:15Rita, what you got?
27:16I've been bouncing back and forth this whole season with names.
27:19And so here I am now going back onto something I said before,
27:22because he's got an incredible voice.
27:24He has two kids.
27:25The audition tape, which makes me think of one of the shows
27:27that he rose to fame in, which was Glee.
27:30And for me, I'm going to go back to my original guest of Darren Criss.
27:33From Glee.
27:35Yes.
27:35I like it.
27:37All right.
27:38Such a wonderful performance.
27:41Forcast-o, y'all.
27:45There was the Jenny McCarthy show,
27:47then there was The View,
27:48then there's New Year's Rockin' Eve.
27:49So it kind of didn't help.
27:50It really didn't.
27:52He's messing with me.
27:53Yes.
27:57Hey, America.
27:58It's your insider, Kylie Cantrell, here.
28:01I can't believe I've made it to the semifinals.
28:04But this has to be one of the hardest songs I've sung yet.
28:07I have the craziest plan for my clue package.
28:09It's going to seem like it's a general entry about my mom,
28:12but really, it's a dedication to my on-screen mom, Rita.
28:15I'm even calling her a queen in it
28:16because, duh, she's the queen of hearts,
28:18my mom from Descendants.
28:20But is it too risky?
28:21Pray for me.
28:28Welcome back to The Masked Singer.
28:31It's the semifinals,
28:32and security is tighter than ever.
28:36Our last celebrity had no problem getting in, though.
28:41It's time for Catwitch to share her case file with us.
28:51What's in my case file?
28:52Well, I tucked away one of my most personal keepsakes.
28:56My journal.
28:57I write all my secrets in it,
28:59but tonight, turn to page 20 for a top-secret entry.
29:03A letter I wrote for someone special.
29:07Mom, all of this is possible because of you.
29:10You believed in me as a little girl
29:12and showed me exactly what I could be.
29:14And when I landed a role in a huge franchise,
29:18you were right by my side.
29:20Franchise?
29:22The older I get, the more I relate to you.
29:24All those lessons you taught me,
29:26maybe I didn't understand them at the time.
29:28I think I get it now.
29:31And while my life story is still being written,
29:34it feels safe following in your footsteps.
29:37But for now, making it to the finale
29:39will be a testament to all you've taught me.
29:42You're such a queen.
29:44Now watch me go for the crown.
29:47Case closed.
29:51Follow your footsteps.
29:52That's so cute!
30:03I know that when you look at me,
30:10there's so much that you just don't see.
30:17But if you would only take the time,
30:25I know in my heart you'd find.
30:31Oh, girl who's scared sometimes,
30:37who isn't always strong.
30:40Can't you see the hurt in me?
30:43I feel so all alone.
30:47I want to run to you.
30:53I want to run to you.
30:59I want to run to you.
30:59Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
31:02Won't you hold me in your arms
31:06and keep me safe from harm?
31:09I want to run to you.
31:13Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
31:16But if I come to you,
31:20Oh, oh, oh, oh.
31:23Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
31:25Tell me will you stay
31:29or will you run away?
31:52Wow, what a boy.
31:55That was good.
31:56That was amazing.
31:59Wow.
32:01What a performance.
32:04Wow.
32:04Rita, talk to Catwitch.
32:07That was so incredibly well done.
32:10Sometimes when you're just simple and you stand there and you just show who you are and your vulnerability and
32:16your fierceness, I mean, you just have it all.
32:18And it's like, it's unbelievable how incredible that performance just was.
32:23Like, I can't tell you.
32:24It's the game changer.
32:24You stole the night.
32:25Yeah, that was great.
32:26You stole the night.
32:28Catwitch, you got Rita all emotional up there.
32:31Yeah, that was so great.
32:33With that stunning performance, but Catwitch, who gets to ask you questions from up there?
32:39Robin, last time I told you, you worked with one of my family members, but we know each other because,
32:47well, you welcomed my family into your home.
32:50Wait, what?
32:51What?
32:51What?
32:51What did he say?
32:52All right, Robin.
32:54Well?
32:54Well, that doesn't narrow it down much.
32:57But you get 25 seconds.
33:01Start the clock.
33:02Have we recorded together?
33:04One of my parents.
33:05Your parents?
33:06Mm-hmm.
33:07Um, do you know what 6'7 means?
33:12Yes.
33:15Are you a fan of Neil Diamond?
33:17Exactly.
33:18See, that helps.
33:19That helps.
33:20You know which age group you're dealing with.
33:22I'm getting in the age group.
33:22Is there anyone else on the panel you have a connection to?
33:25Rita.
33:27Oh.
33:28Wow.
33:29Wow, that was good.
33:30That was some good investigating there.
33:33Yeah.
33:33Okay.
33:34That might have been the most random, yet most effective questioning of all of us.
33:39Well done.
33:39Not bad, Robin.
33:41But it's one name that comes to mind, because I know the whole family, is Miley Cyrus and Noah Cyrus,
33:46her younger sister.
33:48Noah Cyrus.
33:49Oh, yeah.
33:49Because she appeared in the Hannah Montana series and movies, too.
33:53Another Cyrus.
33:54Another Cyrus, yeah.
33:56All right.
33:57Rita, what you got?
33:58You know, the franchise thing sticks out to me like a sore thumb, because obviously I'm part of the Descendants
34:04franchise, and I play the Queen of Hearts, which then got me into thinking, Mom.
34:08And I just, if this is who I think it is, I mean, she really makes my heart melt.
34:13I love her so much.
34:14It's my daughter and descendants, Kylie Cantrell.
34:18Wow.
34:21So, if this is her, I would be, like, completely blown away that it took me this long to really
34:27solidify the name.
34:29I just have a question.
34:30So, that package was about her mom.
34:33Was that about you?
34:34I don't know, but if it is, I can't, I won't be able to continue with the show, because that
34:38would have been the sweetest thing anybody would ever have done for me.
34:40Well, outside of my husband, but still.
34:42I was about to say, your husband came to surprise you on this show.
34:45All right.
34:47Keep it going for Catwitch.
34:48Catwitch, thank you so much, Catwitch.
34:50Yeah!
34:51Go rest those paws, and we'll see you back out here in a minute.
35:00Wow.
35:01All right.
35:04Audience, detectives, it's time to vote for your favorite performer of the night.
35:11The top four will advance to next week's finale.
35:15Finally, the singer with the least amount of votes will be unmasked tonight.
35:21Ah.
35:21The results when we return.
35:24Ooh!
35:26Guys, this is going to be the hardest semifinal vote.
35:30It's all different levels of absolute icons.
35:32I mean, I...
35:33I don't know.
35:37Who is that?
35:42Welcome back to the semifinals of The Masked Singer.
35:45Woo!
35:46The results are in.
35:49And the first singer going into the finale is...
35:55Oh!
35:56Semifinals!
35:57Oh, yeah.
35:58Who is it going to be?
35:59Who is going to the finals?
36:00It's getting real.
36:02This is a moment of truth.
36:06Catwitch!
36:08Oh, my God!
36:11What?
36:12Congratulations!
36:13That's not surprising.
36:15The second singer moving on is...
36:23Oh, gosh.
36:26You see it?
36:28Cray!
36:29Oh, my God!
36:33Amazing!
36:34Yes!
36:35The third singer heading to the finals is...
36:41Oh, this is intense.
36:46Ah!
36:48Picasso!
36:49Yay!
36:50Oh, my God!
36:51Good job.
36:52Never a doubt.
36:53Picasso, he's amazing.
36:55Wow.
36:56Okay.
36:58There's only one spot left.
37:00So, hold on, hold on, hold on.
37:02It is down between Pangolin and Galaxy Girl.
37:04The last singer moving on to the finale is...
37:09Oh, my gosh.
37:11Who is it?
37:14It could literally be either of them.
37:20Galaxy Girl!
37:29We will see all of you in a finale.
37:32This is kind of an upset.
37:34Yeah.
37:34That was Galaxy.
37:36Oh, my God.
37:38Pangolin is going home.
37:40Pangolin's going home.
37:41I don't know what to say.
37:44Pangolin!
37:45Pangolin!
37:46Pangolin!
37:47Keep it going for Pangolin, y'all!
37:51We are so sorry to see Pangolin go.
37:55But before we get to the final guesses...
37:58Uh-oh.
37:58...it's time for the Crack the Case Clue Case.
38:03Yes.
38:06I want that.
38:07Yeah.
38:09It's a Louise Vuitton.
38:13Men in black, reveal what's inside.
38:17One more clue can help us out.
38:20Yes!
38:24Boxing gloves.
38:25Golden boxing gloves.
38:26Boxing gloves.
38:28I like to stand strong in a fight,
38:31especially when it counts.
38:33And honestly, this whole thing represents such a huge win for me.
38:39Aw.
38:39Wow.
38:40Oh, Pangolin!
38:42All right, detectives.
38:44Do you want to change your guess or close your case?
38:47I'm going to close my case because there's only one person that can sing a thousand miles.
38:54I'm just going to go with Vanessa Carlton.
38:56So case closed.
38:57That's it.
38:58Thank you so much.
39:00You know, at first, I thought this was Katy Perry,
39:04but now, the boxing gloves?
39:06She released a song called Battlefield,
39:10Emmy nominated for Glee,
39:11of which I also starred in.
39:15This is Lea Michele Case Closed.
39:17A good guess.
39:19That's a good guess.
39:20Yes.
39:21Robin, what about you?
39:22Yes.
39:23I'm going to close my case.
39:24I'm going with Michelle Branch.
39:26Okay.
39:28All right, Jenny.
39:29Um, my artist has toured with Christina Perry, and then Ken said he worked with her.
39:36Then, what put the nail in the coffin was those boxing gloves.
39:40Yeah.
39:41She has the infamous fight song, you guys.
39:43Fight song.
39:43Oh, yeah, you're right.
39:44This is the amazing Rachel Platten.
39:47Yeah.
39:47Oh, man.
39:49Could be.
39:51All right.
39:53Well, it's time to see if any of our detectives were right about pangolins.
39:59You know the drill.
40:01Say it with me.
40:02Take it off.
40:04Take it off.
40:05Take it off.
40:07Take it off.
40:08Take it off.
40:10I have no idea.
40:12I hope you're not right, Jenny.
40:17Bro.
40:18Looky, looky.
40:19Look at that.
40:20We're getting some help.
40:26Oh, wow.
40:28Singer, songwriter, and author, Rachel Platten.
40:32Pretty awesome.
40:33Rachel Platten.
40:35Yeah.
40:37Well done, Jenny.
40:39Jenny got it right.
40:41Yeah, me, Jenny.
40:44Wow, Rachel.
40:46I mean, you were such a superstar all season long.
40:50Oh, thank you.
40:53Did performing behind a mask change how you connected with music?
40:58You know, it brought me back to when I used to play.
41:00I, you know, for 13 years, I toured around the country and sold CDs out of my suitcase.
41:05Wow.
41:06And all those years, I would just have to prove who I was.
41:09No one knew my name, and it was just about how I could make them feel.
41:13And it really brought me back to that.
41:15It brought me back to that feeling of, like, this is not about what I look like or the clothes
41:18or the brand.
41:19This is, like, can I make you feel what I'm feeling?
41:21Touch your hearts.
41:22Open your hearts.
41:23And you did.
41:24We love you.
41:24Well, we loved you, indeed.
41:26And you did.
41:26You did.
41:27You did.
41:27You did.
41:27You did.
41:27You did.
41:29You did.
41:30The rest of us, did you even know what a pangolin was?
41:32No.
41:33But you guys, I'm, like, very spiritual, and I wanted to understand it.
41:36It's core, so I watched a documentary, and I sobbed.
41:40I was like, this animal is very beautiful.
41:42People need to know.
41:43And the tail is pretty heavy.
41:45So to sing with, like, six.
41:46You smacked me with it a few times.
41:47I know.
41:49Well, we all know what a pangolin is now, right?
41:52Pangolin justice.
41:54I love this place.
41:56Well, we definitely have fun with you.
41:57Thank you once again.
42:00It's all come down to this.
42:02I love you guys.
42:02The race for the Golden Mast trophy finally comes to its epic conclusion next week.
42:09But right now, put your hands together for the artist formerly known as Pangolin.
42:15Go fight song!
42:17Rachel Blatton!
42:20This is my fight song, take back my life song, prove I'm all right song, my power's turned on, sounding
42:34right now, I'll be strong, and I'll play my fight song, and I don't really care if nobody else believes,
42:45why not?
42:46Cause I've still got a lot of fire left in me.
