Who’s the Winner of ‘The Masked Singer’? Bee, Peacock, Monster & More Revealed

Fox’s mysterious new reality series, The Masked Singer, is a bizarre blend of singing competition and Cirque du Soleil over-the-topness. And the twist is that no one is trying to get famous or sign a record deal — the contestants are already celebrities!

During the season, 12 celebrities — whose identities are concealed under elaborate costume and huge mask — compete in front of a live audience, host Nick Cannon, and a panel of famous judges including Robin Thicke, Jenny McCarthy, Ken Jeong, and Nicole Scherzinger.

In addition to their singing voices, clues are dropped to help everyone watching figure out who is performing, but the identity of the masked singer is only revealed once he or she is eliminated.

On the premiere episode, six celebs belted their hearts out on stage but one unfortunately didn’t make it to the next episode: Hippo aka NFL player Antonio Brown of the Pittsburgh Steelers. In the second episode, six more stars took the stage and another was eliminated and revealed: Pineapple aka Tommy Chong.

In the third episode, the Deer unmasked himself and it turned out to be famed NFL quarterback Terry Bradshaw. And in Episode 4, the Poodle turned out to be who many were suspecting — comedian Margaret Cho.

On Episode 5 — Unicorn was actress Tori Spelling. On Episode 6, it was revealed that Raven was Ricki Lake and on Episode 7, Alien unmasked herself as LaToya Jackson. Most recently on Episode 8, former *NSYNC singer Joey Fatone revealed himself to be the Rabbit and Demi Moore and Bruce Willis’ singer/actress daughter Rumer Willis was revealed to be the Lion.

In the finale, the Bee, Peacock and Lion faced off and only one could be crowned the winner. Scroll down to find out who that person was — and the identities of the two runner-ups!
