- Oh!
- Oh! It's Nick!
10
00:00:28,858 --> 00:00:31,362
- Oh, it's Nick!
- Yes!
11
00:00:33,132 --> 00:00:37,340
It's the semi-finals
of "The Masked Singer."
12
00:00:37,341 --> 00:00:38,509
- Whoo!
- Let's go!
13
00:00:38,510 --> 00:00:41,716
Let's give it up
for your top five!
14
00:00:41,717 --> 00:00:43,721
It's Cat Witch.
15
00:00:45,725 --> 00:00:47,695
Hey!
16
00:00:47,696 --> 00:00:48,697
Crane.
17
00:00:51,470 --> 00:00:52,505
Yes!
18
00:00:52,506 --> 00:00:54,174
Pugcasso.
19
00:00:54,175 --> 00:00:55,443
- Yeah!
- Yes!
20
00:00:56,747 --> 00:00:59,619
Galaxy Girl.
21
00:00:59,620 --> 00:01:00,520
Hi!
22
00:01:00,521 --> 00:01:03,794
-And Pangolin.
- Whoo!
23
00:01:08,403 --> 00:01:11,241
- They're all so good.
- They're all so good.
24
00:01:11,242 --> 00:01:16,118
Tonight these final five
will become the final four
25
00:01:16,119 --> 00:01:18,523
as they try to sing their way
to the finale
26
00:01:18,524 --> 00:01:22,765
for the coveted
Golden Mask trophy.
27
00:01:25,203 --> 00:01:28,308
Thank you all.
Head on backstage.
28
00:01:28,309 --> 00:01:31,281
- Amazing group!
The most difficult yet.
- Bye!
29
00:01:31,282 --> 00:01:33,352
- Yes. Yes.
- Love you!
30
00:01:33,353 --> 00:01:35,089
At the start of the season,
31
00:01:35,090 --> 00:01:39,598
our singers locked up
their case files full of clues
in the vault.
32
00:01:39,599 --> 00:01:42,671
And tonight, since we're
so close to the finals,
33
00:01:42,672 --> 00:01:45,711
they're going to dig into
those cases and reveal evidence
34
00:01:45,712 --> 00:01:49,752
so big, so personal,
it will shock you.
35
00:01:49,753 --> 00:01:50,621
What?
36
00:01:50,888 --> 00:01:56,633
Up first, let's see Galaxy Girl
open up her case file
37
00:01:56,634 --> 00:02:00,273
and fill in more blanks
on her identity.
38
00:02:04,149 --> 00:02:08,623
The truth to my identity
has been tucked away in this
case file all season.
39
00:02:08,624 --> 00:02:13,199
But with the finale so close,
there's a little detail
40
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:15,436
I should probably share
with you--
41
00:02:15,437 --> 00:02:19,110
- this necklace.
- Best friends?
42
00:02:19,111 --> 00:02:23,452
I've looked up
to one star my whole life.
43
00:02:23,453 --> 00:02:26,659
By day we'd sing karaoke
in her convertible,
44
00:02:26,660 --> 00:02:30,867
But by night she took the
world's biggest stages by storm,
45
00:02:30,868 --> 00:02:33,472
and I watched in awe.
46
00:02:33,473 --> 00:02:37,614
I saw the awards,
the glitz, the glam.
47
00:02:37,615 --> 00:02:42,390
But I also saw
the public scrutiny,
the headlines.
48
00:02:42,391 --> 00:02:45,698
I remember how much my heart
would break for her.
49
00:02:45,699 --> 00:02:47,768
When it was my turn
in the spotlight,
50
00:02:47,769 --> 00:02:50,607
I was scared to follow
in her footsteps,
51
00:02:50,608 --> 00:02:53,547
but she prepared me
for what was to come.
52
00:02:55,484 --> 00:02:58,088
And she's always been
my guiding light.
53
00:02:58,089 --> 00:03:02,263
But that doesn't mean
there's not some
healthy competition,
54
00:03:02,264 --> 00:03:04,969
and that's why I want to get
to the finale.
55
00:03:04,970 --> 00:03:07,373
I mean, she may be
a massive star,
56
00:03:07,374 --> 00:03:11,716
but finally,
I'm the whole galaxy.
57
00:03:11,717 --> 00:03:12,885
I win.
58
00:03:18,731 --> 00:03:21,469

59
00:03:22,873 --> 00:03:23,908

- Yeah!

00:05:23,313 --> 00:05:26,819
- Galaxy Girl!
- Slam dunk!
102

- Yes, yes!

about you guys, but I am
on a high right now!

- Yes!
- Literally, I'm buzzing.
105
00:05:35,403 --> 00:05:37,674
I mean, you have found
your identity.
106
00:05:37,675 --> 00:05:38,911
You are in your element
right now.
107
00:05:39,245 --> 00:05:43,151
And I'm just so honored to be
a part of this journey with you.
We're on a ride!
108
00:05:43,152 --> 00:05:48,429
- Well said.
- Indeed, indeed.
109
00:05:48,430 --> 00:05:51,669
And now to get us closer
to their identities,
110
00:05:51,670 --> 00:05:55,442
each singer will reveal
which detective
111
00:05:55,443 --> 00:05:58,550
- they have
a personal connection to.
- Ooh!
112
00:05:58,551 --> 00:06:03,560
Then that panelist
will get 25 seconds
113
00:06:03,561 --> 00:06:06,833
to ask whatever
questions they want.
114
00:06:06,834 --> 00:06:08,937
- Nice!
- So let's kick this off.
115
00:06:08,938 --> 00:06:12,443
Galaxy Girl,
who are you connected to?
116
00:06:12,444 --> 00:06:15,416
Well, actually, Nick, it's you!
117
00:06:15,417 --> 00:06:17,453
- What?
- What?
118
00:06:17,454 --> 00:06:18,423
- Me?
- Nick?
119
00:06:18,691 --> 00:06:23,633
- That doesn't narrow it down.
- At all. All right, but, look.
120
00:06:23,634 --> 00:06:26,237
I guess I'll show them
how it's done.
121
00:06:26,238 --> 00:06:29,477
I'll be the first example.
Galaxy Girl, are you ready?
122
00:06:29,478 --> 00:06:32,449
- Yes.
- All right, 25 seconds
on the clock.
123
00:06:32,450 --> 00:06:34,186
Start the clock!
124
00:06:34,187 --> 00:06:35,757
Are we friends
in the real world?
125
00:06:35,758 --> 00:06:39,765
Kind of. I mean, you're
definitely closer to my husband.
126
00:06:39,766 --> 00:06:43,907
- Oh!
- So do we go far back?
127
00:06:43,908 --> 00:06:46,646
Well, we go back,
like, early 2000.
128
00:06:46,647 --> 00:06:49,451
Early 2000s.
I'm close to her husband.
129
00:06:49,452 --> 00:06:51,387
So clearly,
we've partied together.
130
00:06:51,388 --> 00:06:56,397
Um, I think you've probably
partied with my husband.
Not really me.
131
00:06:56,398 --> 00:06:58,201
Have you ever been on
"Wild 'N Out"?
132
00:06:58,202 --> 00:06:59,906
No. But you've never invited me.
133
00:06:59,907 --> 00:07:02,511
- Oh, time is up!
- Oh, that was good!
134
00:07:02,512 --> 00:07:05,116
Time is up, Nick. Time is up.
135
00:07:05,117 --> 00:07:06,619
I get it.
136
00:07:06,620 --> 00:07:11,027
All right, I think
I might know who this is.
137
00:07:11,028 --> 00:07:13,532
- Really?
- Did it help you at all?
138
00:07:13,533 --> 00:07:16,606
Kinda.
The voice just tonight
sold it for me.
139
00:07:16,607 --> 00:07:18,876
- Right?
- You remember when
I said to you
140
00:07:18,877 --> 00:07:22,918
I think Cat Witch has something
going on in the show...
141
00:07:22,919 --> 00:07:24,788
- Yes. Correct.
- ...with Stingray?
142
00:07:24,789 --> 00:07:27,961
I actually think
the relationship
143
00:07:27,962 --> 00:07:31,902
- Mm. Mm.
- between Stingray,
who was Evan Ross,
144
00:07:31,903 --> 00:07:34,541
- is with Galaxy Girl!
- Oh!
145
00:07:34,542 --> 00:07:37,515
And also I know for a fact
he's friends with Nick.
146
00:07:37,516 --> 00:07:38,783
- Whoa.
- Do you see what I'm saying?
147
00:07:38,784 --> 00:07:40,553
It does.
It actually does match.
148
00:07:40,554 --> 00:07:43,258
And to me
that makes it go-- ding!
149
00:07:43,259 --> 00:07:45,863
Ashlee Simpson!
150
00:07:45,864 --> 00:07:48,970
Whoa! Really?
151
00:07:48,971 --> 00:07:51,775
A wonderful guess.
Robin, what you got?
152
00:07:51,776 --> 00:07:53,947
- Yeah, Robin, what you got?
- Well, I'm sorry, Galaxy Girl.
153
00:07:53,948 --> 00:07:56,251
I think my co-panelists
are Milky Way off.
154
00:07:56,252 --> 00:07:59,190
Oh! That's so good, Robin.
155
00:07:59,191 --> 00:08:02,163
Ah, okay. Um, tonight,
156
00:08:02,164 --> 00:08:04,568
it made me think
of somebody else
157
00:08:04,569 --> 00:08:05,970
now that this this connection
158
00:08:05,971 --> 00:08:08,809
with a best friend
or a sibling.
159
00:08:08,810 --> 00:08:11,682
A few seasons ago,
we had Strawberry Shortcake,
160
00:08:11,683 --> 00:08:13,820
- who was A.J. Michalka.
- Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
161
00:08:13,821 --> 00:08:16,291
Remember?
From the band Aly and A.J.?
162
00:08:16,292 --> 00:08:19,898
- Yeah, yeah.
- So I think this could be
Aly Michalka.
163
00:08:19,899 --> 00:08:22,871
- Aly! That's right.
- Good guess. Good guess.
164
00:08:22,872 --> 00:08:26,812
Well, Galaxy Girl definitely
gave an amazing performance.
165
00:08:26,813 --> 00:08:28,549
- Great job.
- Ahh!
166
00:08:28,550 --> 00:08:31,155
Men in Black, help her out.
167
00:08:35,096 --> 00:08:37,835
Jenny, if we're right,
I don't think there's
ever been in history,
168
00:08:37,836 --> 00:08:39,704
- like, a husband and wife--
-Competing.
169
00:08:39,705 --> 00:08:42,309
Right, that's gonna make
for a tough family dinner.
170
00:08:42,310 --> 00:08:44,882
Let's see what happens!
171
00:08:52,097 --> 00:08:53,099
♪ Who is that?
172
00:08:56,372 --> 00:09:00,178
Welcome back to the semi-finals
on "The Masked Singer,"
173
00:09:00,179 --> 00:09:01,950
where our detectives love clues
174
00:09:01,951 --> 00:09:04,922
more than single ladies
love horoscopes.
175
00:09:05,858 --> 00:09:09,096
But you know what else
everyone loves?
176
00:09:09,097 --> 00:09:13,940
Pangolin! It's time
to open up her case file.
177
00:09:17,749 --> 00:09:19,117
At the start of the season,
178
00:09:19,118 --> 00:09:22,591
I locked up my case file
full of clues.
179
00:09:22,592 --> 00:09:24,861
But if you want to get closer
to my identity,
180
00:09:24,862 --> 00:09:27,768
take a look
at these headlines.
181
00:09:27,769 --> 00:09:30,740
My best friend in
the whole world was my Nana.
182
00:09:30,741 --> 00:09:32,744
She would carry
news clippings of me
183
00:09:32,745 --> 00:09:33,980
and force people to read them.
184
00:09:33,981 --> 00:09:37,319
Like, "Have you heard
about my granddaughter?
185
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,758
- She's on the Emmys."
- Emmys?
186
00:09:39,759 --> 00:09:43,900
She was feisty, funny,
and full of heart.
187
00:09:43,901 --> 00:09:47,674
I lost her a few years ago,
and I miss her every day.
188
00:09:47,675 --> 00:09:49,678
Like, when I became a mom,
189
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:51,782
I went through
a really tough time.
190
00:09:51,783 --> 00:09:54,622
I would sit there wondering
how I'd get through.
191
00:09:54,623 --> 00:09:56,491
But then I'd think about Nana.
192
00:09:56,492 --> 00:10:00,032
I could almost hear her saying,
"You got this, sugarplum."
193
00:10:00,033 --> 00:10:02,337
And it really did
get me through.
194
00:10:02,338 --> 00:10:03,606
And you know what?
195
00:10:03,607 --> 00:10:06,410
That fierceness?
It runs in the family.
196
00:10:06,411 --> 00:10:09,785
And it's what's driving me
now to make new headlines,
197
00:10:09,786 --> 00:10:12,356
to fight and get to that finale,
198
00:10:12,357 --> 00:10:14,795
because Nana raised a winner!
199
00:10:14,796 --> 00:10:17,367
I hope that
I'm raising some, too.
200
00:10:23,814 --> 00:10:27,654
Ay, Pablo! How could you?
201
00:10:27,655 --> 00:10:29,725
Get out!

Pangolin definitely wants

- This is gonna be very hard.
- I--
241

Who is this?
242
00:12:33,841 --> 00:12:38,047
Wow. Y'all keep it going
for Pangolin.
243
00:12:40,052 --> 00:12:43,191
- Robin, talk to her.
- I love it. I love the drama
244
00:12:43,192 --> 00:12:45,128
- and the theater
and the novela.
- Right?
245
00:12:45,129 --> 00:12:49,203
And I could really feel
the passion, the intention.
246
00:12:49,204 --> 00:12:50,973
I could feel that in your vocal.
Great job.
247
00:12:50,974 --> 00:12:52,978
- Wow. Well said, Robin.
- Great job.
248
00:12:55,049 --> 00:12:59,724
Okay, let's start wrangling
some questions for Pangolin.
249
00:12:59,725 --> 00:13:03,064
All right, Pangolin,
who do you have a connection
with in the panel?
250
00:13:03,065 --> 00:13:08,007
This person and I have been
on camera together. Ken!
251
00:13:08,008 --> 00:13:09,811
- Ken?
- Wow.
252
00:13:09,812 --> 00:13:12,984
- Oh, my God!
You have a friend.
-Wow.
253
00:13:12,985 --> 00:13:15,823
- All right, Ken, you're up.
- Use it wisely, Ken.
254
00:13:15,824 --> 00:13:18,963
Okay, let's start the clock.
255
00:13:18,964 --> 00:13:21,100
Were you in
"K-Pop Demon Hunters"?
256
00:13:21,101 --> 00:13:23,205
Ahh! My girls would love that!
But, no.
257
00:13:23,206 --> 00:13:25,977
Were you in "Crazy Rich Asians"
with me?
258
00:13:25,978 --> 00:13:28,215
- No.
- Are you just stating
your movies?
259
00:13:28,216 --> 00:13:30,653
Were-- let me finish.
Not just movies.
260
00:13:30,654 --> 00:13:34,227
- So we have
been on TV together.
- Yes, we have.
261
00:13:34,228 --> 00:13:35,296
And how did I do?
Was my performance okay?
262
00:13:35,598 --> 00:13:39,872
- Oh, my gosh. Ken!
- Absolutely riveting!
Couldn't look away.
263
00:13:39,873 --> 00:13:40,908
Okay. You're right.
It's not about me. Not about me.
264
00:13:41,208 --> 00:13:43,580
Um, what do you think of
my guesses so far?
265
00:13:43,581 --> 00:13:45,315
- Oh, my God.
That was not helpful at all!
- Okay, Ken.
266
00:13:45,316 --> 00:13:48,856
- I didn't have
enough time, Nick!
- Super helpful.
267
00:13:48,857 --> 00:13:51,795
- We've learned
absolutely nothing.
- We didn't learn anything.
268
00:13:51,796 --> 00:13:54,901
Maybe Pangolin was in the
eye drops commercial you did.
269
00:13:54,902 --> 00:13:56,972
Oh, well,
talk to your doctor first
270
00:13:56,973 --> 00:13:59,845
to see if it's right for you.
That's right. Yeah.
271
00:13:59,846 --> 00:14:02,483
All right, Ken,
well, did that help you?
272
00:14:02,484 --> 00:14:04,120
You know, real talk,
273
00:14:04,121 --> 00:14:05,823
- the voice is so good.
- Yeah, uh-huh.
274
00:14:05,824 --> 00:14:11,401
This could be Lea Michele
of "Glee," that I also
guest starred on.
275
00:14:12,705 --> 00:14:16,043
She has been on the Emmys.
She's been nominated many times.
276
00:14:16,044 --> 00:14:17,145
- Right?
- You saved yourself.
277
00:14:17,146 --> 00:14:19,718
- I love that. You got it.
- Thank you! Thank you!
278
00:14:19,719 --> 00:14:24,159
- Yeah, yeah.
- And I learned all that
from my questions.
279
00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:24,995
All right,
Jenny, what you got?
280
00:14:25,329 --> 00:14:28,168
So, you know, I actually
thought it was Christina Perri.
281
00:14:28,169 --> 00:14:29,504
But then she showed up
as a clue,
282
00:14:29,505 --> 00:14:31,307
so that went out the window.
283
00:14:31,308 --> 00:14:34,314
I go, okay, who has
Christina Perri toured with?
284
00:14:34,315 --> 00:14:37,954
So we haven't mentioned
Rachel Platten yet.
"Fight Song."
285
00:14:37,955 --> 00:14:41,160
- So I'm going to go
with Rachel Platten today.
- Good guess!
286
00:14:41,161 --> 00:14:45,637
- All right.
- I worked with
Rachel Platten once.
287
00:14:45,638 --> 00:14:47,172
- You did work with Rachel?
- I believe so, yes.
288
00:14:47,173 --> 00:14:49,043
Well, then
I'm a little bit closer.
289
00:14:49,044 --> 00:14:52,449
Y'all keep it going

290
00:14:52,450 --> 00:14:55,055
We got no help from Ken,
291
00:14:55,056 --> 00:14:59,196
but we got lots of love
from Pangolin.
292
00:14:59,197 --> 00:15:01,536

you'll need to open

302

we're talking multiplatinum.
303
00:15:46,124 --> 00:15:48,963
- Whoa.
- Okay, so she's killing it.
304
00:15:48,964 --> 00:15:50,265
There was so much pressure
305
00:15:50,266 --> 00:15:52,369
to strike while
the iron was hot.
306
00:15:52,370 --> 00:15:57,145
But behind closed doors,
my world was falling apart.
307
00:15:57,146 --> 00:16:01,555
Both of my parents were sick.
I had to be there for them.
308
00:16:01,556 --> 00:16:05,062
But when I shared
my work with them,
309
00:16:05,063 --> 00:16:07,266
I could see joy.
310
00:16:07,267 --> 00:16:07,868
I didn't realize it,
311
00:16:08,102 --> 00:16:11,808
but I was inspiring
them to fight.
312
00:16:11,809 --> 00:16:16,318

to keep fighting, too.

And after several
difficult years,
315
00:16:22,297 --> 00:16:24,568
we can finally take
a deep breath.
316
00:16:24,569 --> 00:16:27,139
That's why I want to make it
to the finale.

finished on a high note.

355
00:19:01,181 --> 00:19:04,921
Y'all keep it going for Crane.
356
00:19:04,922 --> 00:19:07,593
Oh! Oh, oh.
357
00:19:07,594 --> 00:19:10,198
Crane, first of all your story
about being a fighter,
358
00:19:10,199 --> 00:19:11,501
and you came out here fighting.
359
00:19:11,502 --> 00:19:14,306
Go, "No, I'm going home
with this trophy."
360

"Break Free."
361
00:19:15,611 --> 00:19:18,114
I think you broke free
of the competitors
362
00:19:18,115 --> 00:19:22,355
- and are making it
all the way to the finale.
- Right! Yay!
363
00:19:22,356 --> 00:19:23,292
Well said. Well said.
364
00:19:23,593 --> 00:19:27,600
Okay, Crane, who do you have
a connection with on the panel?
365
00:19:27,601 --> 00:19:32,644
- Well, I would say Miss Rita.
- No! Really?
366
00:19:32,645 --> 00:19:34,213
- Rita!
- Aah!
367
00:19:34,214 --> 00:19:36,116
We love a little
healthy competition.
368
00:19:36,117 --> 00:19:37,119
- Healthy competition.
- Whoa.
369
00:19:37,353 --> 00:19:41,494
Okay, Rita, you get 25 seconds
to ask Crane whatever you want.
370
00:19:41,495 --> 00:19:42,565
Healthy competition.
Aah! I'm panicking!
371
00:19:42,898 --> 00:19:45,335
- Are you ready? Let's put
25 seconds on the clock.
- I don't know!
372
00:19:45,336 --> 00:19:47,540
- You can do it.
- Why am I standing up?
373
00:19:47,541 --> 00:19:49,510
And go!
374
00:19:49,511 --> 00:19:52,550
Uh, have you been a part of
a show that I was a judge on,
375
00:19:52,551 --> 00:19:54,486
- like "The Voice"?
- No. Okay.
376
00:19:54,487 --> 00:19:57,660
- Have we done a film together?
- No.
377
00:19:57,661 --> 00:20:00,398
Uh, have we partied together
once in a blue moon?
378
00:20:00,399 --> 00:20:02,369
- ♪ No comment
- Aah!
379
00:20:02,370 --> 00:20:04,373
Okay. How do we know each other?
380
00:20:04,374 --> 00:20:06,745
- We were on TV together.
- Was it a talk show?
381
00:20:06,746 --> 00:20:09,216
Not a talk show.
We were competing.
382
00:20:09,217 --> 00:20:11,387
- Okay.
- Wait, what show?
What show?
383
00:20:11,388 --> 00:20:13,257
- I can't tell you!
- She can't tell you, Rita!
384
00:20:13,258 --> 00:20:16,698
- She said competing!
- Oh!
385
00:20:16,699 --> 00:20:19,504
- All right, time's up.
- You did good, though.
You did good.
386
00:20:19,505 --> 00:20:21,407
You know what, Rita?
You did better than Ken,
at least.
387
00:20:21,408 --> 00:20:23,545
- I'm sweating.
- You did way better than Ken.
388
00:20:23,546 --> 00:20:25,181
I'm sweating in places
I didn't even know I had.
389
00:20:25,182 --> 00:20:28,054
- Okay.
- All right, did that help you
out at all, though?
390
00:20:28,055 --> 00:20:31,193
Well, there's only
a few people that can put
their leg up that high
391
00:20:31,194 --> 00:20:33,397
- that I know and
I've seen music videos for.
- Right, right.
392
00:20:33,398 --> 00:20:38,074
One's Tate McCrae
and one is Normani.
393
00:20:38,075 --> 00:20:41,648
Normani, I actually think
we did do a TV show together.
394
00:20:41,649 --> 00:20:43,384
Or could it have been
an awards show
395
00:20:43,385 --> 00:20:44,721
where you guys
were both nominated?
396
00:20:44,722 --> 00:20:47,392
- Healthy competition.
- Oh, healthy competition.
397
00:20:47,393 --> 00:20:50,098
- Good job, Daddy.
- Well, I think that might--
398
00:20:50,099 --> 00:20:54,306
Ken! I think I'm torn
because Halle Bailey I just saw
399
00:20:54,307 --> 00:20:57,078
at this dinner party thing
that I was just at,
400
00:20:57,079 --> 00:21:00,018
and she didn't
talk to me, so I was like,
maybe she knows it's--
401
00:21:00,019 --> 00:21:02,456
Maybe I know she knows
that I know it's her?
402
00:21:02,457 --> 00:21:04,594
- You see what I'm saying?
- Oh! That old scheme.
403
00:21:04,595 --> 00:21:06,699
You know, that whole thing?
So I don't know.
404
00:21:06,700 --> 00:21:08,702
I'm torn between Normani
and Halle Bailey,
405
00:21:08,703 --> 00:21:12,442
and I feel like
I don't know if Halle can kick
her leg up that high.
406
00:21:12,443 --> 00:21:16,417
- That's a real high kick.
- I agree with Rita,
407
00:21:16,418 --> 00:21:19,022
because only a couple of people
can kick like this.
408
00:21:19,023 --> 00:21:21,695
Like how she did. Me.
409
00:21:21,696 --> 00:21:23,364
Hey, man, you're not supposed
to laugh there.
410
00:21:23,365 --> 00:21:25,268
Wait, did you foot
even go above--
411
00:21:25,269 --> 00:21:28,308
You know what?
I just pulled a hammy.
But enough about me.
412
00:21:28,309 --> 00:21:30,713
That was like a scissor kick.
413
00:21:30,714 --> 00:21:32,517
And you know who can pull
a scissor kick?
414
00:21:32,518 --> 00:21:34,486
- Who's that Ken?
- SZA.
415
00:21:34,487 --> 00:21:37,058
- That's who I think this is.
- Oh, my--
416
00:21:37,059 --> 00:21:41,635
SZA kick.
You're welcome, America.
417
00:21:41,636 --> 00:21:46,244
Those are all good guesses.
Even Ken's isn't even that bad.
418
00:21:46,245 --> 00:21:48,047
- Thank you, Daddy.
- Ah!
419
00:21:48,048 --> 00:21:51,487
All right, that was an amazing
performance from Crane.
420
00:21:51,488 --> 00:21:54,795
Men in Black, help her out.
421
00:21:56,599 --> 00:21:59,136
I feel like any one of them
could win right now.
422
00:21:59,137 --> 00:22:02,877
You know what
would be really helpful is
if one of them stunk.
423
00:22:02,878 --> 00:22:05,984
- That's just Ken's aftershave
- I'm not disagreeing.
424
00:22:09,992 --> 00:22:10,994
♪ Who is that?
425
00:22:14,702 --> 00:22:19,644
Welcome back to the semi-finals
of "The Masked Singer."
426
00:22:19,645 --> 00:22:22,784
He's literally the last man
standing in the competition.
427
00:22:22,785 --> 00:22:26,625
- Yes!
- But who is hiding
under that mask?
428
00:22:26,626 --> 00:22:30,600
Let's watch as Pugcasso
opens up his case file.
429
00:22:34,307 --> 00:22:38,516
America, all season
you've been trying to close
the case on me.
430
00:22:38,517 --> 00:22:40,986
So let me give you
a peek into my file.
431
00:22:40,987 --> 00:22:43,726
Roll the tape.
432
00:22:43,727 --> 00:22:45,529
- Hey, guys. My name is--
-
433
00:22:45,530 --> 00:22:47,733
I would love to be a part
of "The Masked Singer."
434
00:22:47,734 --> 00:22:49,804
See, there was a moment
when everyone in America
435
00:22:49,805 --> 00:22:53,444
had their eyes on me,
and suddenly this hometown boy
436
00:22:53,445 --> 00:22:55,650
was thrown into interviews
and photoshoots,
437
00:22:55,651 --> 00:22:57,720
and the problem is
I've always thought of myself
438
00:22:57,721 --> 00:23:00,526
as a musician,
not a celebrity.
439
00:23:00,527 --> 00:23:03,532
I work really hard to keep
my life as normal as possible
440
00:23:03,533 --> 00:23:04,834
for me and my family.
441
00:23:04,835 --> 00:23:06,938
I mean, my own kid
doesn't know I'm famous.
442
00:23:06,939 --> 00:23:10,680
- Wow, that's a good clue.
- That is a good clue.
443
00:23:10,681 --> 00:23:13,585
So you can imagine,
I would love to do the show.
444
00:23:13,586 --> 00:23:17,860
And now I feel lucky
to have been chosen.
445
00:23:17,861 --> 00:23:21,601
The best thing is,
it's been about the art, music,
446
00:23:21,602 --> 00:23:23,404
and that's why I want
to make it to the finale.
447
00:23:23,405 --> 00:23:26,512

Pugcasso, your voice
is a work of art.

00:25:53,104 --> 00:25:55,843
You are so effortless.
You make everything easy.

- Amazing job.

- Wow!
- Okay, well, let's find out

00:26:05,997 --> 00:26:09,570
which detective Pugcasso
has a connection to.
489

- Ah.
- Who is it?
490
00:26:10,806 --> 00:26:16,918
Oh, well, this person and I
have shared a stage together.
491
00:26:16,919 --> 00:26:18,889
- And it's Jenny.
- Jenny?
492
00:26:18,890 --> 00:26:20,993
- What?
- All right, Jenny,
493
00:26:20,994 --> 00:26:23,030
- well, you have 25 seconds.
- Okay.
494
00:26:23,031 --> 00:26:25,368
- Make it count.
- Ooh, these are gonna be good.
495
00:26:25,369 --> 00:26:27,172
- Start the clock.
- Okay.
496
00:26:27,173 --> 00:26:29,911
Have we ever--
we have met before,
on a stage somewhere.
497
00:26:29,912 --> 00:26:31,648
We've met on a stage before.
498
00:26:31,649 --> 00:26:33,417
Okay, have we ever
dated though?
499
00:26:33,418 --> 00:26:37,893
- Uh, no.
- Did we ever present
an award together?
500
00:26:37,894 --> 00:26:41,767
- No.
- Okay, were we ever in the same
TMZ story together?
501
00:26:41,768 --> 00:26:45,609
- No, I don't think so.
- Okay, did I ever interview you
502
00:26:45,610 --> 00:26:47,680
on MTV or my radio show
or "The View"?
503
00:26:47,681 --> 00:26:50,118
Maybe, introduce you
on one of those?
504
00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:53,157
- Maybe.
- Ooh!
505
00:26:53,158 --> 00:26:55,929
Time's up.
Give it up for Jenny.
506
00:26:55,930 --> 00:26:57,365
Those were some
good questions right there.
507
00:26:57,366 --> 00:27:00,505
Did any of that help you out?
508
00:27:00,506 --> 00:27:03,444
Well, if I look back at,
like, "The View," the people
I remember introducing...
509
00:27:03,445 --> 00:27:07,586
- Oh, "The View." Okay.
- ...are like Michael Bublé,
John Legend.
510
00:27:07,587 --> 00:27:10,959
But then I also forgot,
for 10 years I hosted
"New Year's Rockin' Eve,"
511
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:12,997
- and I introduced
a lot of people.
- Yes.
512
00:27:12,998 --> 00:27:15,803
But it could be someone
like a Shay Mooney.
513
00:27:15,804 --> 00:27:17,171
- Okay. Dan and Shay, yes, yes.
- Of Dan and Shay.
514
00:27:17,172 --> 00:27:19,176
- Dan and Shay, I--
- That's a good guess.
515
00:27:19,177 --> 00:27:22,917
That's where
I'm leaning right now, but I
feel like I am so close.
516
00:27:22,918 --> 00:27:25,488
Definitely a good guess.
Rita, what you got?
517
00:27:25,489 --> 00:27:27,727
I've been bouncing back
and forth this whole season
with names.
518
00:27:27,728 --> 00:27:31,100
And so here I am now
going back onto something
I said before
519
00:27:31,101 --> 00:27:33,103
because he's got
an incredible voice.
520
00:27:33,104 --> 00:27:35,241
He has two kids.
The audition tape,
521
00:27:35,242 --> 00:27:37,011
which makes me think
of one of the shows
522
00:27:37,012 --> 00:27:39,215
that he rose to fame in,
which was "Glee."
523
00:27:39,216 --> 00:27:42,857
I'm gonna go back
to my original guess
of Darren Criss.
524
00:27:42,858 --> 00:27:44,860
- From "Glee."
- Oh, that's--
525
00:27:44,861 --> 00:27:48,033
- I like it.
-All right.
526
00:27:48,034 --> 00:27:51,909
Such a wonderful performance.
Pugcasso, y'all!
527
00:27:55,015 --> 00:27:56,818
There was
"The Jenny McCarthy Show."
528
00:27:56,819 --> 00:27:57,520
Then there was "The View."
529
00:27:57,721 --> 00:27:58,354
Then there's
"New Year's Rockin' Eve."
530
00:27:58,789 --> 00:28:01,293
- So it kind of didn't help.
- It really didn't.
531
00:28:01,294 --> 00:28:02,295
He's messing with me.
532
00:28:02,296 --> 00:28:05,201
Yes.
533
00:28:06,538 --> 00:28:10,044
Hey, America.
It's your insider
Kylie Cantrall here.
534
00:28:10,045 --> 00:28:13,117
I can't believe I've made it
to the semi-finals!
535
00:28:13,118 --> 00:28:16,290
But this has to be one of
the hardest songs I've sung yet.
536
00:28:16,291 --> 00:28:18,928
I have the craziest plan
for my clue package.
537
00:28:18,929 --> 00:28:21,534
It's gonna seem like it's
a journal entry about my mom,
538
00:28:21,535 --> 00:28:24,239
but really it's a dedication
to my on-screen mom, Rita.
539
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:26,911
I'm even calling her
a queen in it because, duh,
540
00:28:26,912 --> 00:28:29,049
she's the Queen of Hearts,
my mom from Descendants.
541
00:28:29,050 --> 00:28:31,354
But is it too risky?
Pray for me.
542
00:28:34,928 --> 00:28:36,130
♪ Who is that?
543
00:28:40,039 --> 00:28:42,877
Welcome back
to "The Masked Singer."
544
00:28:42,878 --> 00:28:47,285
It's the semi-finals, and
security is tighter than ever.
545
00:28:47,286 --> 00:28:52,563
Our last celebrity had
no problem getting in though.
546
00:28:52,564 --> 00:28:58,074
It's time for Cat Witch
to share her case file with us.
547
00:29:02,684 --> 00:29:03,820
Cat Witch:
What's in my case file?
548
00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:09,096
Well, I tucked away one
of my most personal keepsakes,
my journal.
549
00:29:09,097 --> 00:29:11,033
I write all my secrets in it.
550
00:29:11,034 --> 00:29:15,241
But tonight, turn to page 20
for a top secret entry,
551
00:29:15,242 --> 00:29:17,947
a letter I wrote
for someone special.
552
00:29:17,948 --> 00:29:21,621
"Mom, all of this is possible
because of you.
553
00:29:21,622 --> 00:29:25,863
You believed in me
as a little girl and showed me
exactly what I could be.
554
00:29:25,864 --> 00:29:30,706
And when I landed a role
in a huge franchise,
you were right by my side."
555
00:29:30,707 --> 00:29:33,812
Franchise?
556
00:29:33,813 --> 00:29:36,050
"The older I get,
the more I relate to you.
557
00:29:36,051 --> 00:29:37,819
All those lessons you taught me,
558
00:29:37,820 --> 00:29:39,957
maybe I didn't understand them
at the time.
559
00:29:39,958 --> 00:29:42,963
I think I get it now.
560
00:29:42,964 --> 00:29:46,069
And while my life story
is still being written,
561
00:29:46,070 --> 00:29:48,842
it feels safe following
in your footsteps."
562
00:29:48,843 --> 00:29:50,545
- Hmm.
- "But for now, making it to
563
00:29:50,546 --> 00:29:53,350
the finale will be a testament
to all you've taught me.
564
00:29:53,351 --> 00:29:58,761
You're such a queen.
Now watch me go for the crown."
565
00:29:58,762 --> 00:30:00,198
Case closed.
566
00:30:02,570 --> 00:30:05,475

Wow.

- Wow, what a voice!
- That was good.
594
00:32:08,121 --> 00:32:10,124
That was amazing.
595
00:32:10,125 --> 00:32:14,733
Wow! What a performance.
596
00:32:14,734 --> 00:32:15,536
- Right?
- Wow.
597
00:32:15,770 --> 00:32:18,975
- I mean, that was--
- Rita, talk to Cat Witch.
598
00:32:18,976 --> 00:32:21,112
That was so incredibly
well done.
599
00:32:21,113 --> 00:32:23,952
Sometimes when you're just
simple and you stand there
600
00:32:23,953 --> 00:32:25,889
and you just show who you are
601
00:32:25,890 --> 00:32:28,493
and your vulnerability
and your fierceness,
602
00:32:28,494 --> 00:32:31,132
I mean, you just have it all.
And it's, like--
603
00:32:31,133 --> 00:32:33,938
it's unbelievable how incredible
that performance just was.
604
00:32:33,939 --> 00:32:37,011
- Like, I can't tell you.
It's a game-changer.
- You stole the night.
605
00:32:37,012 --> 00:32:39,517
- That was gorgeous.
- Yeah, stole the night.
606
00:32:39,518 --> 00:32:42,288
Cat Witch, you got Rita
all emotional up there...
607
00:32:42,289 --> 00:32:44,292
- Yeah, that was so great.
- Man.
608
00:32:44,293 --> 00:32:46,397
...with that
stunning performance.
609
00:32:46,398 --> 00:32:51,039
But, Cat Witch,
who gets to ask you questions
from up there?
610
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,444
Robin, last time I told you
611
00:32:53,445 --> 00:32:57,853
you worked with
one of my family members,
but we know each other
612
00:32:57,854 --> 00:33:01,527
because, well, you welcomed
my family into your home.
613
00:33:01,528 --> 00:33:04,567
- Wait, what?
- What? What? What?
What'd she say?
614
00:33:04,568 --> 00:33:08,107
- All right, Robin, well?
- Well, that doesn't
narrow it down much.
615
00:33:09,043 --> 00:33:14,152
But you get 25 seconds.
Start the clock.
616
00:33:14,153 --> 00:33:16,791
- Have we recorded together?
- One of my parents.
617
00:33:16,792 --> 00:33:19,696
- Your parents? Um...
- Mm-hmm.
618
00:33:19,697 --> 00:33:21,232
Do you know what 6-7 means?
619
00:33:21,233 --> 00:33:23,638
Ha-ha!
620
00:33:23,639 --> 00:33:26,477
- Yes.
- Aah!
621
00:33:26,478 --> 00:33:28,848
- Are you a fan of Neil Diamond?
- Who?
622
00:33:28,849 --> 00:33:31,352
- Exactly.
See, that helps. That helps.
- Yeah, it's good.
623
00:33:31,353 --> 00:33:33,825
- So you know which age group
you're dealing with.
- I'm getting in the age group.
624
00:33:33,826 --> 00:33:36,564
Is there anyone else
on the panel you
have a connection to?
625
00:33:36,565 --> 00:33:39,436
- Rita.
- Oh!
626
00:33:39,437 --> 00:33:41,874
- Wow!
- Wow. That was good.
627
00:33:41,875 --> 00:33:44,847
- Robin, that was actually--
- That was some good
investigating there.
628
00:33:44,848 --> 00:33:48,354
- Okay.
- That might have been the most
random yet most effective
629
00:33:48,355 --> 00:33:50,324
- questioning of all of us.
- True.
630
00:33:50,325 --> 00:33:52,095
- Well done.
- Not bad. Not bad, Robin.
631
00:33:52,096 --> 00:33:53,330
Well, this one name
that comes to mind
632
00:33:53,331 --> 00:33:57,572
because I know the whole family
is Miley Cyrus and Noah Cyrus,
633
00:33:57,573 --> 00:33:59,309
- her younger sister.
- Yeah, that's a great guess.
634
00:33:59,310 --> 00:34:00,378
- Noah Cyrus.
- Oh, yeah.
635
00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:04,787
'Cause she appeared
in the Hannah Montana series
and movies, too.
636
00:34:04,788 --> 00:34:06,089
- Good guess.
- Another Cyrus.
637
00:34:06,090 --> 00:34:07,458
Another Cyrus, yeah.
638
00:34:07,459 --> 00:34:10,230
All right, Rita, what you got?
639
00:34:10,231 --> 00:34:11,366
You know, the franchise thing
640
00:34:11,367 --> 00:34:12,303
sticks out to me
like a sore thumb.
641
00:34:12,571 --> 00:34:16,276
Because, obviously, I'm part
of the Descendants franchise
642
00:34:16,277 --> 00:34:17,612
and I play the Queen of Hearts,
643
00:34:17,613 --> 00:34:19,617
which then got me
into thinking "mom."
644
00:34:19,618 --> 00:34:23,090
And I just--
if this is who I think is,
645
00:34:23,091 --> 00:34:24,427
I mean, she really makes
my heart melt.
646
00:34:24,528 --> 00:34:29,402
I love her so much.
It's my daughter in Descendants,
Kylie Cantrall.
647
00:34:29,403 --> 00:34:31,607
Wow.
648
00:34:31,608 --> 00:34:37,385
So if this is her, I would be,
like, completely blown away
649
00:34:37,386 --> 00:34:39,757
that it took me this long
to really solidify the name.
650
00:34:39,758 --> 00:34:41,392
Okay, I just have a question.
651
00:34:41,393 --> 00:34:44,332
- So that package
was about her mom.
- Yeah, I don't--
652
00:34:44,333 --> 00:34:48,307
- Was that about you?
- I don't know, but if it is,
I can't-- I won't be able
653
00:34:48,308 --> 00:34:49,442
to continue with the show
'cause that would have been
654
00:34:49,443 --> 00:34:52,115
the sweetest thing anybody
would ever have done for me.
655
00:34:52,116 --> 00:34:53,417
Well, outside of my husband,
but still.
656
00:34:53,418 --> 00:34:54,253
Was about to say,
your husband came
657
00:34:54,521 --> 00:34:57,158
- and surprised you on the show.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
658
00:34:57,159 --> 00:34:59,563
All right, keep it going
for Cat Witch.
659
00:34:59,564 --> 00:35:03,170
- Thank you so much, Cat Witch.
- Yeah!
660
00:35:03,171 --> 00:35:05,240
- Whoo!
- Go rest those paws
661
00:35:05,241 --> 00:35:08,314
and we'll see you
back out here in a minute.
662
00:35:11,789 --> 00:35:16,063
- Wow.
- All right, audience,
663
00:35:16,064 --> 00:35:19,302
detectives, it's time to vote
664
00:35:19,303 --> 00:35:23,544
for your favorite performer
of the night.
665
00:35:23,545 --> 00:35:27,552
The top four will advance
to next week's finale.
666
00:35:27,553 --> 00:35:30,926
The singer with the least
amount of votes
667
00:35:30,927 --> 00:35:33,197
- will be unmasked tonight.
- Ugh.
668
00:35:33,198 --> 00:35:36,504
- The results when we return.
- Ooh!
669
00:35:38,542 --> 00:35:41,413
Guys, this is gonna be
the hardest semi-final vote.
670
00:35:41,414 --> 00:35:44,185
It's all different levels
of absolute icons.
671
00:35:44,186 --> 00:35:46,691
- I mean, I--
- I don't know.
672
00:35:49,764 --> 00:35:50,766
♪ Who is that?
673
00:35:56,343 --> 00:35:59,516
Welcome back to the semi-finals
of "The Masked Singer."
674
00:35:59,517 --> 00:36:03,724
- Whoo!
- The results are in.
675
00:36:03,725 --> 00:36:09,469
And the first singer
going into the finale is...
676
00:36:09,470 --> 00:36:11,440

677
00:36:11,441 --> 00:36:13,778
- Oh, yeah. Who's it gonna be?
- Who's going to the finals?
678
00:36:13,779 --> 00:36:15,783
It's getting real.
679
00:36:17,252 --> 00:36:18,655
It's the moment of truth.
680
00:36:20,458 --> 00:36:24,232
- Cat Witch!
- Oh, my God!
681
00:36:24,233 --> 00:36:26,269
- Ah!
- What?
682
00:36:26,270 --> 00:36:27,806
-Congratulations.
- That's not surprising.
683
00:36:27,807 --> 00:36:31,212
Wow!
684
00:36:31,213 --> 00:36:36,591
- The second singer
moving on is...
- Ah!
685
00:36:38,228 --> 00:36:39,463
Oh, gosh.
686
00:36:41,367 --> 00:36:43,672
- Just say it.
- Crane!
687
00:36:44,541 --> 00:36:46,544
- Oh, my God!
- All right, all right.
688
00:36:46,545 --> 00:36:48,748
-Congratulations.
- Amazing!
689
00:36:48,749 --> 00:36:50,250
Yes!
690
00:36:50,251 --> 00:36:55,862
The third singer heading
to the finals is...
691
00:36:55,863 --> 00:36:57,700
Oh, this is tense.
692
00:37:00,707 --> 00:37:02,509
Aah!
693
00:37:02,510 --> 00:37:05,281
- Pugcasso.
- Oh, my God!
694
00:37:05,282 --> 00:37:07,385
Good job. Never a doubt.
695
00:37:07,386 --> 00:37:08,755
Pugcasso, he's amazing.
696
00:37:09,825 --> 00:37:14,867
- Wow.
- Okay, there's only
one spot left.
697
00:37:14,868 --> 00:37:16,537
So, wait. Hold on, hold on.
698
00:37:16,538 --> 00:37:18,507
It's down between
Pangolin and Galaxy Girl.
699
00:37:18,508 --> 00:37:23,684
The last singer moving on
to the finale is...
700
00:37:23,685 --> 00:37:26,658
Oh, my gosh!
Who is it?
701
00:37:29,196 --> 00:37:30,498
It could literally be either
of them.
702
00:37:34,774 --> 00:37:37,879
Galaxy Girl!
703
00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:40,283
- Oh, my God!
- Oh!
704
00:37:40,284 --> 00:37:43,324
- Yeah!
-Congratulations.
705
00:37:43,325 --> 00:37:46,563
We will see all of you
in the finale.
706
00:37:46,564 --> 00:37:48,768
- This is kind of an upset.
- Yeah.
707
00:37:48,769 --> 00:37:52,108
- Not with Galaxy.
- Oh, my God!
708
00:37:52,109 --> 00:37:56,349
- Pangolin is going home!
I don't know what to say.
- Pangolin is going home.
709
00:37:56,350 --> 00:38:01,593
Pangolin! Pangolin! Pangolin!
710
00:38:01,594 --> 00:38:04,065
Keep it going
for Pangolin, y'all.
711
00:38:05,736 --> 00:38:09,576
We are so sorry
to see Pangolin go.
712
00:38:09,577 --> 00:38:12,749
- But before we get
to the final guesses...
- Uh-oh.
713
00:38:12,750 --> 00:38:17,693
...it's time for
the Crack the Case Clue Case.
714
00:38:17,694 --> 00:38:18,828
Yes.
715
00:38:21,067 --> 00:38:22,603
- I want that.
- Yeah.
716
00:38:24,306 --> 00:38:25,676
It's "Louise" Vuitton.
717
00:38:27,747 --> 00:38:31,521
Men in Black,
reveal what's inside.
718
00:38:31,522 --> 00:38:35,529
- One more clue can help us out.
- Yes!
719
00:38:38,869 --> 00:38:41,874
- Boxing gloves? Boxing gloves?
- Golden boxing gloves.
720
00:38:41,875 --> 00:38:47,785
Like to stand strong in a fight,
especially when it counts.
721
00:38:47,786 --> 00:38:52,896
And honestly,
this whole thing represents
such a huge win for me.
722
00:38:52,897 --> 00:38:54,365
- Oh.
- Wow.
723
00:38:54,366 --> 00:38:56,604
Oh, "Pangolian."
724
00:38:56,605 --> 00:39:01,647
All right, detectives,
do you want to change your guess
or close your case?
725
00:39:01,648 --> 00:39:06,557
I'm gonna close my case
because there's only one person
726
00:39:06,558 --> 00:39:08,795
that can sing
"A Thousand Miles."
727
00:39:08,796 --> 00:39:10,565
I'm just gonna go
with Vanessa Carlton.
728
00:39:10,566 --> 00:39:13,938
So case closed! That's it!
Thank you so much.
729
00:39:13,939 --> 00:39:18,514
You know, at first I thought
this was Katy Perry.
730
00:39:18,515 --> 00:39:20,819
But now, the boxing gloves?
731
00:39:20,820 --> 00:39:24,125
She released a song
called "Battlefield."
732
00:39:24,126 --> 00:39:29,401
Emmy-nominated for "Glee,"
of which I also starred in.
733
00:39:29,402 --> 00:39:32,007
This is Lea Michele.
Case closed.
734
00:39:32,008 --> 00:39:33,678
- A good guess.
- Thank you.
735
00:39:33,679 --> 00:39:35,515
- That's a good guess.
- Yes.
736
00:39:35,516 --> 00:39:37,519
- Robin, what about you?
- Yes.
737
00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:40,390
I'm gonna close my case.
I'm going with Michelle Branch.
738
00:39:42,395 --> 00:39:44,833
All right, Jenny?
739
00:39:44,834 --> 00:39:47,404
Um, my artist has toured
with Christina Perri,
740
00:39:47,405 --> 00:39:49,843
and then Ken said
he worked with her.
741
00:39:49,844 --> 00:39:54,619
Then what put
the nail in the coffin
was those boxing gloves.
742
00:39:54,620 --> 00:39:56,824
- Yeah.
- She has the infamous
"Fight Song," you guys.
743
00:39:56,825 --> 00:39:58,862
- "Fight Song."
- Oh, yeah. You're right.
744
00:39:58,863 --> 00:40:01,065

Rachel Platten!

- Who knows?
- Could be.
747
00:40:05,710 --> 00:40:08,948
- All right.
- I really like whacking you.
748
00:40:08,949 --> 00:40:11,620
Well, it's time to see
if any of our detectives
749
00:40:11,621 --> 00:40:13,724
were right about Pangolin.
750
00:40:13,725 --> 00:40:16,363

Say it with me.

- Aww, thank you! Thank you!
- Yes!
767
00:41:07,666 --> 00:41:09,903
Did performing behind a mask
768
00:41:09,904 --> 00:41:11,874
change how you
connected with music?
769
00:41:11,875 --> 00:41:15,447
You know, it brought me back
to when I used to play-- I--
770
00:41:15,448 --> 00:41:19,523
you know, for 13 years,
I toured around the country
and sold CDs out of my suitcase.
771
00:41:19,524 --> 00:41:21,927
- Wow.
- And all those years,
772
00:41:21,928 --> 00:41:24,900
I would just have to prove
who I was. No one knew my name.
773
00:41:24,901 --> 00:41:27,038
And it was just about
how I could make them feel.
774
00:41:27,039 --> 00:41:28,775
And it really brought me
back to that.
775
00:41:28,776 --> 00:41:30,444
- It brought me back
to that feeling...
- Yeah.
776
00:41:30,445 --> 00:41:32,180
...of this is not about
what I look like
777
00:41:32,181 --> 00:41:33,050
or the clothes or the brand.
778
00:41:33,250 --> 00:41:35,788
This is like, can I make
you feel what I'm feeling,
779
00:41:35,789 --> 00:41:37,692
touch your hearts,
open your hearts?
780
00:41:37,693 --> 00:41:38,728
- Aww. We love you!
- And you did.
781
00:41:38,928 --> 00:41:40,998
- We loved you, indeed.
- And you did.
You did, girlfriend.
782
00:41:40,999 --> 00:41:43,604
Thank you, guys!
You're the best!
783
00:41:43,605 --> 00:41:46,810
Are you like the rest of us?
Did you even know
what a Pangolin was?
784
00:41:46,811 --> 00:41:49,550
No. But, you guys,
I'm, like, very spiritual,
785
00:41:49,551 --> 00:41:51,687
and I wanted to understand it,
its core.
786
00:41:51,688 --> 00:41:54,492
So I watched
a documentary and I sobbed.
I sobbed it.
787
00:41:54,493 --> 00:41:57,532
And I was like,
"This animal is very beautiful.
People need to know."
788
00:41:57,533 --> 00:41:59,536
- Aww!
- And the tail is pretty heavy.
789
00:41:59,537 --> 00:42:01,807
- You smacked me
with it a few times.
- So to sing with, like, six--
790
00:42:01,808 --> 00:42:03,978
- I know.
- Girl.
791
00:42:03,979 --> 00:42:08,521
- Well, we all know
what a pangolin is now, right?
- Pangolin justice!

00:42:08,522 --> 00:42:11,627

-Well, we definitely
had fun with you.
