It was the end of the line for Poodle Moth on Wednesday night’s (May 8) episode of The Masked Singer, as the furry bug had its wings clipped – all 10 feet of them.
Season 11 of Fox’s kooky singing competition is reaching its climax. Tonight was the quarter-finals, and, as usual, the two celebrities with the least amount of votes went toe-to-toe in a smackdown.
From the top, Clock performed “Get On Your Feet” by Gloria Estefan, Goldfish covered “Unforgettable” by Nat King Cole, Poodle Moth checked in with “Price Tag” by Jessie J. ft. B.O.B., and Gumball rolled with a cover of Jason Mraz’s “I’m Yours”.
Poodle Moth and Gumball slipped into the bottom ranks, and each was tapped for a rendition of “If I Could Turn Back Time” by Cher.
There could be only one winner: Gumball, who joins Goldfish and Clock in next week’s semi-finals.
Underneath the Poodle Moth mask was Chrissy Metz, the singer and actor from TV series This Is Us, which earned her nominations for a Primetime Emmy Award and two Golden Globe Awards.
Jenny McCarthy-Wahlberg guessed right. Rita Ora picked Faith Hill, Robin Thicke figured it was Shania Twain, and Ken Jeong suggested Melissa McCarthy.
Why would Metz want to do The Masked Singer? “I still think I’m educating people on me being a singer,” she told host Nick Cannon after the helmet came off, “so that’s part of the reason why I wanted to do the show.” There are moments on stage, in the suit, where it’s “really going full throttle.”
And to be certain, she remarked, “you don’t even know how much sweat is in this suit.” Ok. “I thought, let me challenge myself and I’m glad I did because I learned a lot about myself.”
Metz as Poodle Moth follows the exit of Ruben Studdard and Clay Aiken (as The Beets), Jenifer Lewis (Miss Cleocatra), Kevin Hart (Book); restauranteur Joe Bastianich (Spaghetti & Meatballs); TV personalities Savannah Chrisley (Afghan Hound), Billy Bush (Sir Lion) and Colton Underwood (Lovebird); NFL hall of famer DeMarcus Ware (Koala); and singer Sisqó (Lizard).
