Who Is The Masked Singer 's Cherry Blossom? Full House Star Revealed
Originally appeared on E! Online
Cherry Blossom's time on The Masked Singer has been cut short.
A beloved castmember from the iconic '90s sitcom Full House was eliminated during the Fox singing competition series' March 26 episode mere moments after being introduced to fans alongside fellow newcomers Nessy, Yorkie, Stud Muffin and Mad Scientist.
"This is all very real right now and I'm getting nervous about it, but I can do this!" Cherry Blossom admitted in a video package before showcasing her vocal chops. "To me, Cherry Blossom represents rebirth, a changing of seasons. Which is why it's perfect for me. And, also, this is personal."
As it turned out, the TV star was close friends with a former Masked Singer contestant.
"You could say we grew up together," the mystery actress teased. "He taught me to not take myself so seriously. There was no one who made me laugh more. Fast forward to the day I turned on The Masked Singer and heard that voice. I knew from the very first note who it was. Now, while I'm excited to follow in their footsteps, I'm also terrified."

"I've done it all in my career, but I have never sung before," Cherry Blossom concluded. "But deep breath. I think it's important for this Cherry Blossom to branch out and have a little fun. So, this is for one of the loudest personalities I know. Miss you, bud."
And even after performing an impressive cover of 's "Let's Get Loud," Cherry Blossom was still a puddle of nerves in front of the judges.
"This is the scariest thing I've ever done," she told the audience. "But I am channeling my kids' confidence. One of them sings, but my legs are still noodles right now."
Then, Joey Fatone shared one final hint via a video message and confirmed Cherry Blossom was "part of one of the most famous TV families of the '90s."
Unfortunately, the star received the least votes of the night and was sent home.
As for who the judges thought was behind the colorful costume, Ken Jeong was certain it was Saturday Night Live alum , picked 7th Heaven alum , guessed Beverly Hills, 90210's and thought it was Tracy Gold, who starred on Growing Pains with his late father Alan Thicke.
However, it turned out to be —a.k.a. Full House's D.J. Tanner—who conquered her fear of singing in public.
"I've never sang live before, the 48-year-old said after her unmasking. "I'm so happy I got to do it."
Of course, it was the late who Candace was referring to in her video package. Saget competed as Squiggly Monster during season four of the show just over a year before his sudden 2022 passing.
And upon her big reveal, Robin—whose late father costarred on Growing Pains with Candance's brother Kirk Cameron—noted that he was "in the same wheelhouse."
"We've known each other since we were 9 years old," he said. "We even were boyfriend and girlfriend for a week at 13 years old."

The Masked Singer airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. on Fox.

This Korean Shampoo Doubles As Hair Perfume & Actually Delivers Results
All linked products are independently selected by our editors. If you purchase any of these products, we may earn a commission. As someone who doesn't get a trim as often as she should (I'm growing my hair out, okay?), I expect a lot from my humble shampoo and conditioner. I want them to cleanse my scalp and strands of the daily lashings of dry shampoo, not to mention smooth frizz, minimise split ends, boost shine and make my lengths smell incredible. I don't think that's a tall order, especially given how far haircare tech has come. But it's my job to test these products out, and you'd be surprised how many brands underdeliver. So when I heard that Kundal — Korea's number one shampoo brand — had just landed at Boots, I sat up, took note, and headed straight to TikTok to see what all the fuss was about. While Korea's skincare continues to enjoy the spotlight, it's now haircare's turn to shine, with Kundal taking centre stage. On TikTok, the hashtag #Kundal now has over 17.3K posts and counting, many racking up tens of thousands of views, likes and comments. The consensus? It's one of the best-smelling — yes, smelling — hair brands out there. According to the brand's legions of fans, hair perfume has nothing on Kundal's shampoo range, which features fragrances like White Musk (clean, soft, and powdery), Cherry Blossom (lightly floral and refreshing) and Violet Muguet (sweet and slightly green). There are also matching conditioning treatments, a scalp tonic and a post-wash serum, all of which smell just as good. In fact, some are even filming themselves 'blind' reviewing the collection based on scent alone. It seems the most popular scent is White Musk — a warm 'skin scent' with a spicy, intimate edge. As luck would have it, White Musk was the fragrance that landed on my desk, namely the Honey & Macadamia Shampoo White Musk, £14.99, and the Honey & Macadamia Protein Treatment White Musk, £14.99. It's not all hype — they do smell incredible. Hours after using the shampoo and treatment, my partner walked into a bathroom that smelled like a high-end spa. He was convinced I'd spritzed on perfume before bed. Nope, just my hair. Ask any fragrance obsessive how to smell good all day, and I bet they'll recommend a hair perfume. Unlike regular fragrance sprayed on skin or clothes, hair perfume really lingers, and the natural movement of your lengths means you catch heavenly wafts throughout the day. But here's the thing: A lot of them contain alcohol, which can be drying on already parched or fragile strands. The beauty of Kundal's hair collection is that it's not all scent over substance; the incredible fragrance is suspended in a handful of nourishing ingredients. I'll start with the shampoo. The ingredients list boasts an abundance of smoothing, shine-enhancing plant oils, including coconut, avocado, macadamia and jojoba oils. Then there's ultra-moisturising shea butter to reduce dryness and frizz, plus mild surfactants like lauryl hydroxysultaine to cleanse the scalp and strands without stripping. Don't underestimate it, though. The lather is rich and creamy, and I only need to shampoo once, rather than twice like usual. My hair always feels light and clean, not weighed down or greasy. It's been two days since I last washed my hair, and I can still smell the subtle, powdery, musky scent on my strands. Then there's the protein treatment, a favourite among people with all hair types — especially those with type 4 natural hair, who love its moisturizing benefits. One content creator even called it ' life-saving ' for her curls. I have fine hair, but a lot of it, and I use the treatment as a conditioner, letting it work its magic for around five minutes. As the name suggests, the star ingredients are proteins, particularly hydrolyzed soy protein, hydrolyzed keratin, and silk amino acids. Certified trichologist Angela Onuoha had previously told me that, in haircare, proteins are considered a type of conditioning agent, and that every hair type can benefit from them to help protect and temporarily repair hair from heat damage and environmental stressors like harsh weather and pollution. @thatssotrending I'm on a healthy hair journey. @KUNDAL US is making it easier for the natural hair community. My type 4 hair felt so good after using these products! 💜💜💜 #kundalxbeautyko #kundal #naturalhairtiktok #type4hair #curlyhairproducts #washday #healthyhairjourney #haircare #haircareproducts #koreanbeauty ♬ original sound - Jacobdior Onuoha explained that most proteins latch onto the surface of hair strands, forming a protective film that smooths the hair shaft. The result? Softer, shinier-looking hair. The proteins in this treatment are 'hydrolysed' — essentially broken down into smaller molecules. Onuoha also noted that hydrolysed proteins can potentially penetrate the hair shaft to help strengthen it from within, offering further protection against damage. I judge a treatment by how it makes my hair feel when I rinse it out, and I was surprised by how silky it was, not to mention how easily it disappeared. Most treatments leave behind a greasy residue, but this felt more like a lightweight conditioner that left my hair — especially my very split ends — feeling soft and looking a hell of a lot healthier. Of course, a good hair oil helps, too. I absolutely love Kérastase Gloss Absolu Glaze Drops Hair Oil, £38.80, and while it's the most expensive product in my routine, a little goes a very long way. Speaking of price, I was surprised to learn that Kundal's 500ml shampoo and treatment are just £14.99 each. Suppose you're using one pump of each — my maths is a little rusty, but I think that works out to around 6p per pump. Considering the incredible fragrance, not to mention the megamix of expert-approved ingredients, I'd say the brand is well worth the money. Better still, it's available on the high street at Boots. My advice? Grab a shampoo and treatment duo before they sell out — and if TikTok's fragrance enthusiasts have anything to do with it, they certainly will.

Billy Joel's First Wife Addresses His Brain Disorder Diagnosis
Originally appeared on E! Online Billy Joel is still rock and roll to Elizabeth Weber. More than four decades after their divorce, the 'Uptown Girl' singer's first wife offered rare insight into their nine-year union, noting that his success came as no surprise to her. 'He's worked so hard all of his life,' Elizabeth exclusively told E! News at the Tribeca Festival premiere of Billy Joel: And So It Goes in New York City June 4. 'I've never known anybody who worked harder than he did in all those years we were together and working together.' While the Grammy winner was absent from the red carpet event following his recent diagnosis with the brain disorder normal pressure hydrocephalus, his ex was among those wishing him—as well as wife Alexis Joel—well. 'I just want him to be restored to good health so he can enjoy his life and his wife and his children. He earned that,' Elizabeth continued. 'The restoration of his good health is all I really care about.' (For more from the Tribeca Festival, tune into E!

'There's too many of them,' she explained, 'and they're all marvelous.' So it's no surprise to her that fans still can't get enough of his vast selection of hits. 'Someone can be in the audience and look at him and say, 'That could be me,'' Elizabeth went on. 'Not everybody can be an unnamed pianist who sings, but everyone thinks that they could do that or be that.' As for Billy—who shares kids Della Rose, 9, and Remy, 7, with Alexis as well as Alexa Ray, 39, with ex-wife —he announced last month that he was canceling all of his upcoming tour dates as he fights a condition known as normal pressure hydrocephalus, which causes fluid to build up in the skull. 'I'm sincerely sorry to disappoint our audience,' the musician said in a press release shared on Instagram in May, 'and thank you for understanding.'

Miss Grand International's Rachel Gupta Steps Down, Alleges Harassment
Originally appeared on E! Online Rachel Gupta has taken off her crown for the last time. The former Miss Grand International 2024, who won the title in October, announced she was stepping down from the role due to mistreatment and harassment from Miss Grand International Public Company Limited (MGI), the organization behind the Thai beauty pageant. "The whole time that I was working with Miss Grand International, the last seven months,' Gupta said in a May 28 YouTube video, 'I was constantly harassed, manipulated, ignored and left to fend for myself." In addition to her allegations that she was made to sign a 'one-sided' contract and was often left without 'basic amenities,' the 21-year-old alleged that "immediately after winning, they moved me into a cramped hotel room, where all my suitcases couldn't open properly because there wasn't enough space." Gupta then alleged she gained weight as a result of eating takeout food since "there were no pots and pans" in the lodging provided by MGI. And then, in turn, she said the organization ridiculed her because of her weight gain. More from E! Online Elon Musk's Ex Ashley St. Clair Has Jaw-Dropping Response to Donald Trump Fallout Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta's Khadiyah Lewis Dead at 44 Dakota Johnson Rocks Sheer Revenge Dress After Chris Martin Breakup 'They were hounding me, constantly talking about my weight and my body," Gupta continued in the video. "They sent a representative to me, and he just comes up to me and starts pinching me in places. He's like, 'Oh, you need to lose weight here. You need to lose weight here.' It's so embarrassing. It makes you feel so small and so bad." Ultimately, the beauty queen decided to relinquish her title after she said she was 'stuck' in Thailand with 'no security,' unable to return to her home in India, and felt unsupported by MGI during her time there, including after $1000 allegedly went missing. 'I realized, in that moment, that these people will never support me,' she said. 'Frankly they don't care if I live or die. As long as I'm there to smile at their events, as long as I keep my body super skinny, the way they like, they don't care if I live or die.' Shortly after Gupta published her video, MGI announced on Instagram that they had revoked her title. Later, they refuted her allegations. "Miss Grand International Public Company Limited (MGI) issues this formal statement in response to a series of false, misleading, and defamatory claims made publicly by Ms. Rachel Gupta, former Miss Grand International 2024," the organization said in a statement to People published June 5. "Her remarks, circulated via a video published on 28 May 2025, distort facts and misrepresent her contractual relationship with MGI—relying solely on emotional appeals and tearful storytelling without any physical evidence to support her claims." In addition to emphasizing that Gupta's claims, including allegations directed at MGI's chief operating officer, were 'rejected in their entirety' by the organization, they noted their belief in the beauty pageant. "MGI will not allow personal attacks or manipulative narratives,' the statement continued, 'to undermine the credibility of its executives or the integrity of the organization." E! News has reached out to Gupta and MGI for comment and has not heard back. Read on for more stars who were formerly beauty pageant winners.
