'The Masked Singer' reveals Bat as major reality star and features Taylor Swift 'bestie' singing one of her hits
Warning: This article contains spoilers for season 13, episode 4, "Voices of Olympus: Unmasking of the Gods." Five new masks rained down upon The Masked Singer stage as the "voices of Olympus" on Wednesday night — and no, we still don't really know what that means, either. The episode description read: "From the triumphs to the tragedies to the myths and the legends, deities Rita Ora and Jenny McCarthy-Wahlberg, the exalted Ken Jeong and the majestic Robin Thicke are prepared for a clash of the titans and an unmasking of the gods as the Group B premiere commences!" Basically, it was an excuse for the panel to do Gladiator cosplay, which was seemingly confirmed later in the episode when Jeong yelled that film's iconic line — 'Are you not entertained?!' — at the audience. That aside, the episode did in fact bring in five new masks for the first time since the season 13 premiere, and they were about as bonkers as the night's theme. First out of the gate was Boogie Woogie, which can best be described as "Muppet, but make it ABBA." He sang 'I Believe in a Thing Called Love' by the Darkness — all of the high notes included.

It was a fitting choice, because Swift factored heavily into this out-of-this-world contestant's clues. He even told the panel, "Taylor Swift is my homie, we go way back. She's one of my besties." For the second week in a row, Lucky Duck turned up to offer some additional clues, this time with a new accent. 'The panel may not have 20/20 vision, but that doesn't mean you don't get a bird's-eye view. You shouldn't have to wait, tick tock,' he said as he gave the audience a closer look at Space Ranger's belt, which has a clock on it. (There also appeared to be some sort of Masked mystery board behind Lucky Duck. Hmmm... wonder if there are more clues there.) Entertainment Weekly Next, it was time for Griffin, the only costume particularly on theme for the evening. He sang "Rewrite the Stars' by Zac Efron and Zendaya from The Greatest Showman. Afterward, McCarthy-Wahlberg and Jeong joined forces on their guess that he was David Arquette, a rare melding of the minds for those two. Then it was Bat's turn to sing 'Espresso' by Sabrina Carpenter. She apparently had some connections to both McCarthy-Wahlberg and host Nick Cannon. Pearl finally ended things, boldly choosing to sing a Whitney Houston song, 'Saving All My Love for You." (And Ora's jaw never left the floor as she did so.) Related: The Masked Singer season 13 reveals: See every unmasked celebrity contestant so far The first to go home from this new crop of singers was Bat. Before she could fly off the stage, everyone had to offer their final guesses. All of the panel was decently close, opting to go for various reality TV stars. Ora first chose Heidi Montag, but later piggybacked off of Thicke's guess of Bethenny Frankel. McCarthy-Wahlberg went with Larsa Pippen, and Jeong stuck with Lisa Rinna. For the second time this season, though, no one got it right, and Bat was unmasked to reveal Vanderpump Rules star Scheana Shay. This means next week's episode will feature Space Ranger, Boogie Woogie, Pearl, and Griffin battling it out to inch their way closer to cementing a spot in the Group B finals. Stay tuned for that next Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Fox. Read the original article on Entertainment Weekly

‘The Masked Singer' exclusive clip: Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg accuses Bat of being this ‘Real Housewives' star
Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg is dissecting the clues for Bat on this week's episode of The Masked Singer. The pop culture guru has a keen eye for housewives — and mystery celebs from her hometown of Chicago. That's why she's calling out Real Housewives of Miami star Larsa Pippen as the winged diva when Group B hits the stage in "Voices of Olympus: Unmasking of the Gods" on Wednesday. In an exclusive preview clip below, Jenny lays out her theory about who is hiding behind the luxurious Bat mask.

'The Voice' Season 27 Episode 5 recap: Michael pitches hard ball in the final night of Blind Auditions How Phil Keoghan's weeklong deep dive led to 'The Amazing Race 37's' episodic twists "There was a bear clue. Anytime I see a bear I go, 'Maybe it's someone from Chicago,'" Jenny tells her co-panelists Robin Thicke, Ken Jeong, and Rita Ora. "The person I think it is, is Larsa Pippen. She's from Chicago, but I want another Chicago connection." Ken then chimes in, "She was married to Scottie Pippen and once dated the son of Michael Jordan, Marcus Jordan." Jenny then turned her questions towards host Nick Cannon, asking, "Have you ever spent a holiday with Larsa?" His response? "I don't think so." This week, Group B makes its premiere as five new mystery celebs take the stage: Bat, Boogie Woogie, Griffin, Pearl, and Space Ranger. Whichever contestant receives the least amount of votes will be forced to unmask in front of America. Is Larsa Pippen next on the hit list? Or is Jenny way off?
