Pearl won 'The Masked Singer' — and her identity makes the judges' jaws drop
After months of decoding clues, fans of 'The Masked Singer' finally know the identities of the final four contestants. The singing competition aired its Season 13 finale on May 7 and unmasked four celebrities in a jam-packed episode. In the end, only one could take home the golden mask trophy, and the contestant known as Pearl stood out just a bit more than her competitors. In the final moments of the show, Pearl took off her mask and revealed herself as country singer Gretchen Wilson. Robin Thicke, one of the four celebrity judges on the show, was the only one of his colleagues to guess Pearl's identity. 'Good on you,' Wilson applauded Thicke after he explained that her 'individual, sounds like nobody else tone' led him to suspect she was Pearl. When the show's host Nick Cannon asked Wilson what inspired her to come on 'The Masked Singer,' she opened up about a 'rough couple of years' she recently experienced. 'I was injured. I was in a wheelchair. And there was a moment where I didn't think I'd ever get back to this place. And I worked really hard. I prayed really hard. And I got so far. But this opportunity has really proven to me that there's nothing I can't do,' she said. Earlier on in the episode, Pearl looked back on her journey on 'The Masked Singer.' 'Every time I've put on this Pearl costume I think it's so strange that I pulled off being this bejeweled princess,' she said in a video interview prior to her identity being revealed. 'It's so unlike me. I'd say the hoodie and sweatpants is more in line with who I am. What can I say? I'm gritty, raw, unapologetic. I've always been that way. And a lot of times, especially when I was first starting out, it stood in the way of my success.' Who else was in the Season 13 finale? Pearl wasn't the only big unveiling of the night. Boogie Woogie, Mad Scientist and Coral also made it to the finale and sang their hearts out while competing for the win. In the end, 'Zombies' star Meg Donnelly was unmasked as Coral. Celebrity judge Rita Ora correctly guessed her identity and congratulated Donnelly, saying she 'really stood her own' in the competition. While reflecting on her decision to join the cast of 'The Masked Singer,' Donnelly said, 'I did this show to kind of get more comfortable on stage, singing. It's something I'm always really nervous about and insecure about and it's just helped me immensely.' Mad Scientist turned out to be Brian Kelley, country singer and former member of Florida Georgia Line. Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg guessed his identity correctly. Kelley said he wanted to 'challenge myself' by signing on for the show. Boogie Woogie was unveiled as singer Andy Grammer, but none of the celebrity judges were able to guess his identity beforehand. 'It's been incredible to get to sing so many different songs and styles,' he said about his experience on the show.
