Welcome, everyone, to a very special event,
an awards show like no other,
the inaugural "masked singer" masky's.
You know it's big when we got fire.
Are you ready for the first award of the night?
Wait, hold on.
Oh, not quite yet, nick.
Cluedle-doo is joining this party, too.
Because I'm here to help everyone at home
figure out the identities
behind our six remaining singers--
yeti, robopine, black swan,
russian dolls, chameleon, and the piglet.
And guess what.
I've got a huge secret to reveal later tonight
that will make your head explode.
Cue the fire!
Ah, ah, ah. Hold up.
I'm the only one that can cue the fire!
Whatever. I'll be back with new clues that are fire.
Toodle-doo.
Okay, america,
grab your nearest spatula or water bottle
and get ready to sing along with the first-ever winner
of the first ever masky's.
In the category of best love song
the nominees are...
The piglet, "speechless."
black swan, "how will I know?"
and yeti, "if it isn't love."
and the masky goes to...
Black swan, "how will I know?"
oh, my gosh! Yes!
Thanks, nick, and my entire flock out there.
Becoming the black swan
has unlocked a fearless side in me,
and I'll never forget the first time I put her on.
Man: And turn around.
Cool. And if want to sing?
Swan: ♪ amazing grace
♪ how sweet the sound
whitney houston is the greatest vocalist ever,
so this next song was a huge challenge.
But fly with me and enjoy singing along.
Oh.
Whoo!
- Robin: Whoo! - Whoo!
- Black swan! - I don't know!
Robin: Whoa!
I'm hacking in to give you
the exclusive clue scoop from the clue coop,
so let me help map out black swan's clues.
That globe was very subtle,
but everything in our world can be spun into a clue.
- And that montana? - She's from montana?
Someone who starred in "hannah montana"?
Oh, ken, you were migrating so close,
but flew so far away.
Chickmate.
Will black swan be our season five champion?
The competition swings back into full gear next week.
And now, the award for most powerful masked journey
goes to crab, aka, bobby brown.
Let's start at the beginning.
- Oh, boy! - Oh, my goodness.
It's a crabby world. I can't wait to try it on.
- Can you sing a song? - Yeah.
♪ jingle bells
man: What's it like to see it all come together?
Ooh-whoo!
( vocalizing )
my kids are going to go nuts.
It's going to be nice sitting there having popcorn
and let them try to figure out who it is.
"daddy!"
"how are you doing that? You're here and..."
nick: And when bobby hit that stage,
his strength and resilience moved us all.
♪ ain't no sunshine when she's gone ♪
♪ it's not warm when she's away ♪
why did you choose those songs?
Well, as everybody knows, I lost my two children.
I lost my daughter bobbi kristina
and I lost my son just recently, bobby jr.
And, um, they were a part of everything that I do this for.
I do this for my kids.
And I just felt it was essential that I come out here
and do it for my little ones, you know?
My 5-year-old, my 4-year-old,
my 11-year-old, you know, to let them see
that their dad is still, you know, kicking.
♪ ain't no sunshine when she's gone ♪
♪ and this house just ain't no home ♪
♪ anytime she goes away
I'm the king of holding my feelings inside,
so this was a great way of, um, expressing myself.
You know, sometimes when I feel like I need to cry,
I should cry, instead of just trying to bottle it up.
And I think I'll have that long cry sometime soon because of this show.
♪ ain't no sunshine when she's gone ♪
♪ and this house just ain't a home ♪
♪ anytime she goes away
go forward, you know? Don't take no steps back.
Always take a step forward.
Life is yours. Don't waste it.
The tears have been flowing this season,
but this next category is about tears of joy...
For most entertaining train wreck?
This could really be anyone.
The masky goes to...
Raccoon for "wild thing."
my name's danny trejo,
and I want to thank nick cannon for the honor.
Also, I want to thank my dog john wesley harding,
meanest cowboy in the west,
for the inspiration of our costume.
( dog barking )
and I want everybody to sing along and go wild.
♪ wild thing
what?
Who is it?
- ( cheering ) - yes!
Get it, raccoon!
Yeah!

Oh, it reminds me of my son.
Robin: Piglet!
- That got me. - Jenny, you're crying.
- Piglet! - The mom in me, it got me.
- Robin: Yes! - Oh, my god, piglet.
So, folks, do you wonder who my farm fresh friend is?
This chicken sees his identity
by looking closer at that scoreboard
and this white board.
Who knew pigs and math went hand in ham?
Cluedle-doo do. Uh, does.
So take that to the piggy bank.
Nick: That actually helped.
And remember, sharing is caring,
so post your sing-along videos by tagging @maskedsingerfox
and by using that hashtag #themaskedsinger.
Now, let's get to our next award.
In the category of most rebellious character...
You know it.
It's grandpa monster,
aka logan paul.
- He dropped the mic... - Panel: Oh!
- Ate the mic.... - ( chomping )
he's a bad boy and I'm here for it.
- ( gulps ) - ...But did actually sing with the mic.
So sing along with his rendition of,
naturally, "bad reputation."
oh, my god. He just ripped up piglet.
Yes!
- Yes! Yes! - Oh, my god! Yes!
- Oh, my god! - Oh, my gosh. He is so fun.
- Yeah! - Oh, he doesn't care about his bad reputation.
Nick: Coming up...
Danny: You know, if they would have, like, judged me on cuteness?
( whistles ) I'd have won.
...Our unmasked celebrities return to blow up the internet.
- Smooches. - And later...
You'll get the first shocking clue to my famous identity.
♪ who is that?
Well, phoenix, it was quite a ride.
We didn't go very far, but we gave it a good shot.
And by the way, as it was getting near the end,
your breath was horrible.
So I got you these, all right?
All yours.
It was fun, but good-bye.
Welcome back to the inaugural masky's awards,
hollywood's 17th biggest night of the year.
Our competition is down to just six singers--
robopine, yeti, russian dolls,
black swan, the piglet, and chameleon.
But now, let's get to our next award.
In the category of best john legend cover
by a cyborg covered in sharp quills...
And the masky goes to...
Come on! I need this.
Robopine for "all of me."
thank you, nick. I feel so blessed.
"all of me" is such an honest song about love,
and it's one of my favorites ever.
I dedicated it to nicole, and I hope you dedicate it
to someone special in your life as you sing along.
Cluedle-doo: But first,
are you robo-pining for the 411 on this rodent?
I'll quill you in.
- Oh, that's dna. - Ken was close,
but the clue was actually for genes.
And I'll just say, half of these things are hints
to major roles he's played.
That's why they call me rooster the clue booster.
Oh, no one calls me that?
- Ken: Oh, he's pointing at nicole. - Oh, my god.
Wow, that was amazing.
Oh, my gosh.
Nick: He won a masky and nicole's heart.
Now, let's get to our next award.
In the category of best rock performance,
the masky goes to...
Orca! "we're not gonna take it."
take it away, mark mcgrath.
Hey! Thank you, nick cannon,
and thank you for the killer whale of an honor.
It was the most wonderful experience of my life.
In fact, I think I needed "the masked singer"
more than it needed me.
And, america, don't ever forget. Rock!
Yeah!
Yeah! Come on, ken!
Orca's not gonna take it anymore!
- Nicole: Come on! - Robin: Yeah!

But now we want to hear you sing along from your dollhouse.
Pop, pop! It's showtime.
Whoo!
How cute is the hat?
- Oh, my god! Are there four dolls? - Whoa!

Yeah!
That was incredible.
24 karat magic, indeed.
But did you notice that doll's hat
said said "29" in roman numerals?
Cluedle-doo at your clue service.
Remember that pop art? It's stacked with clues.
The amount of squares is a huge hint,
along with those rows of cars.
Finally, I'll tell you "mizfitz"
is spelled that way for a reason.
That's a lot to nibble on. Back to you, nicholas.
Nick: Thanks, cluedle.
I don't know who those dolls are.
I don't even know how many there are,
but I know there's a masky
I'm very excited to give out right now.
It's for the best song performed by an inanimate object
that brings me back to the '90s slumber parties.
This is a really tough category, ladies and gentlemen.
And the masky goes to...
Seashell! "I think we're alone now."
thank you so much, nick!
I will put this very prestigious masky right next to my emmy.
I would like to thank my family--
my husband, my kids, everybody.
You guys are awesome.
I hope you're in your slumber party pjs as you sing along.
Oh, my god!
Nick: Coming up,
who will win our biggest masky yet?

Welcome back to "the masked singer" masky's.
It's an award show. It's a sing-along show.

It's a giant celebration of an incredible "masked" season
with so many more surprises in store.

chameleon, "21 questions."
and chameleon, "regulate."
and the masky goes to...
Oh, where's-- there it is.
Chameleon, "ride wit me."
thanks, nick, and great pick.
I grew up jamming to this song,
and I'm having so much fun bringing the party
and old school vibes to you as the chameleon.
Now, take a ride with me and sing along.
- Hey! - Give me some of that.
That was awesome. He's really good.
I know in my gizzard the identity of this lizard.
So here's the skinny.
There was this clue blended into his performance.
Did you see it?
Understanding those playing cards could make your day.
And don't fast-forward past this clue.
It may be the biggest sign
to who our colorful chameleon really is.
Cham-fam, time to scram.
Yo, that chameleon brings it every single week.
And now let's get to our next award.
In the category of most feel-good performance of the season,
the masky goes to
snail, "you make my dreams."
and what a dream come true
to have kermit the frog on our stage.
I don't know!
Who is that?
- Yeah! Whoa! Wow! - Ken: Yeah!
Doesn't get better than a frog in a snail.
And now, it's rapid-fire masky time.
For best-worst dance moves,
it's a tie between robin,
ken,
and-- no. No, no, no.
Actually, you know, go back.
It's robin. I mean, what is this?
And, really? He's still doing it!
For best reaction to seeing the masky, me!
Whoa, is this me?
Pretty cool.
Can I keep this?
You are sharply dressed. You know that, young man?
Shoes are amazing.
This thing's pretty cool.
And for best reaction to seeing their costume,
logan paul, aka grandpa monster.
Oh, my god.
( laughing )
this is crazy.
With his cap-- and a bald spot!
He's bald, just like my father.
Oh, my god. This is hilarious.
Coming up, our biggest award yet.
Plus, kermit and his new friends
deliver an unforgettable medley
you'll watch again and again
and maybe again, after this.
Welcome back to "the masked singer" masky awards.
It's not the oscars, but we do have a kermit.
Now, let's get to our final award of the night.
In the category of most game-changing performance of the season,
the nominees are...
Russian dolls, "man in the mirror."
yeti, "lonely."
and my personal favorite, I'm just saying,
bulldog, "candy girl."
yeah!
And the masky goes to...
Yeti! "lonely."
what a game-changing honor. It warms my heart.
I'd like to thank all those hours I spent rollerblading growing up
because skating in this costume was terrifying.
Now, don't make me feel lonely again.
Get ready to sing along with the yeti.
No way!
Ooh.
( sighs )
oh, my god.
- I don't want it to stop. - Oh, my god! Look at my chills!
- Robin: I wanted more! - That's so beautiful. Oh!
Wow, that was truly epic. The best skating I've seen
since the oscar-snubbed epic film "roll bounce."
should have won for that.
All right, I'm out of masky's,
but I'm not out of surprises.
I've got the surprise this time.
All my unmasked friends have returned
for a most unforgettable performance.
It's time to get chick-rolled. Hit it.
( "never gonna give you up" playing )
I have to go. I have to.
But I'm never gonna give you up, I promise.
I'm never gonna give you up.
You're up, caitlyn.
Girl, you made me very proud.
We had a good run, man. You did your best.
You're so damn cute, and I'll be seeing you again.
- ( orca squealing ) - that's between us.
Good-bye.
And remember, even if you're a snail or a frog,
if you believe in yourself
and have friends who believe in you,
your dream can come true.
Did you like that, nick?
Yeah, that was actually pretty fun, cluedle-doo,
but I still don't like you.
Well, you may like this.
You know I'm not just a roaster rooster
who likes to cause chaos.
I'm an undercover celebrity myself.
I've helped with clues to the other masks,
but cluedle-doo you want the very first clue
to who I am, too?
Drum stick-- I mean, drumroll, please.
I have a connection to another
mischievous masked singer from the past--
the gremlin.
So chew on that, nick cannon.
I'll see you soon when my identity
will be revealed right on that stage.
Cluedle-doo bids you adieu.
And with that surprise, we wrap up a very special night,
our first-ever "masked singer" masky awards.
I hope you had as much fun as I did.
Next week, the competition continues
as our spicy six,
yeti, chameleon, russian dolls,
black swan, the piglet, and robopine battle it out
for that other bigger, shinier trophy,
the golden mask.
And to make masked history, they're all gonna take it off.
- This is crazy. - Trust me, it's gonna get extra spicy in here.
This is what I'm gonna do to cluedle-doo next time he comes out.
- Oh, my gosh! - I'll see you then.
Good night, america.
