AceShowbiz - "The Masked Singer" invited viewers to look forward to "Trolls Band Together" on "Trolls Night" in the Wednesday, November 15 episode. In the new outing, Donut, Anteater and Candelabra returned to the stage as they would be joined by a new wild card contestant.
Anteater kicked off the night. In his clue package, Anteater revealed that he wrestled in high school and he almost went to college for it. His visual clues, meanwhile, featured panelists Jenny McCarthy and Nicole Scherzinger on a coin.
He later offered everyone a performance of "I Want It That Way" by Backstreet Boys. As for his new clue, Anteater claimed that he's in a Hall of Fame. Considering all the clues so far, Jenny and Robin Thicke guessed Willie Nelson. Nicole, meanwhile, named John Mellencamp.
The next singer was Candelabra, who claimed that her mom was not a constant figure in her life. Host Nick Cannon said that he seemed to know Candelabra's real identify. The next clue arrived in a form of a teacup set with the words "Real Tea" on it.
For that night's performance, Candelabra chose to sing "All My Life" by K-Ci & JoJo. Both the panels and fans were all convinced that Candelabra is a professional singer with Nicole guessing she was Keyshia Cole. Jenny thought Ashanti could be under the mask, while Ken Jeong named Kelly Rowland.
Following it up was Donut. He got everyone emotional when he said that he still misses the love of his life, who is no longer with him. He added that he had lived out a billion dreams and that he's been entertaining for decades.
Donut opted to sing "I Do (Cherish You)" by 98 Degrees. As for his onstage clue, he called himself well seasoned because his fans come from many generations. Ken guessed Stanley Tucci. Robin thought Donut could be Tom Jones, while Nicole went with Engelbert Humperdinck.
It was time to reveal the wild card contestant, which was Cuddle Monster. His costume was easily the biggest in FOX's "The Masked Singer" history. In his clue package, Cuddle Monster said that his talent got him out of a bad situation and that he became out of control at one point of his life. He also appeared to hint that he's Muslim.
Cuddle Monster then entertained the panel and the audience with a performance of "You Got It (The Right Stuff)". The onstage clue was "Champ" as he said, "This clue should shed light on who I am." Robin's guess was Dennis Rodman. Ken named Draymond Green, while Nicole guessed Shaquille O'Neal.
Nick later revealed the results and the bottom two would go to Smackdown for a battle. Candelabra and Donut were safe, so Cuddle Monster and Anteater would have to face each other while singing "Can't Stop the Feeling" by Justin Timberlake. Anteater was way better than Cuddle Monster, who was out of tune in most parts.
Rather unsurprisingly, Anteater was named as the winner of the Smackdown. That meant Cuddle Monster was eliminated and had to reveal himself. Before that, the panel made their final guesses. Robin still believed Cuddle Monster was Dennis Rodman, Ken went with Draymond Green. Jenny guessed Tristan Thompson and Nicole named Shaquille O'Neal.
None of them got it right because Cuddle Monster was Metta World Peace!
