Taco: Tom Bergeron (VHS tapes = AFV, Rubik's Cube shape looks like Hollywood Squares; there's also a photo of Tom wearing an apron that says Tom's Tacos from DWTS)

You were right

haha Told ya. His voice was just pretty obvious to me.

Last night, the banana (or his friend?) said something about a race track at his house. Bret Michaels lives in Scottsdale, AZ. I found his house on Google Earth. He had a 10-acre spread with multiple buildings... and a race track that is clearly seen from the sky. He mentioned that someone died recently. Michaels' father died last summer and he announced it at a show.

I've given up on the Kitty and figuring out who she is. haha

Yeah Banana is Brett. When he talks Brett always pauses and it's usually talking about being positive. I wish he would rock out with a rock song already but he's been singing different types of songs. Trying to throw the judges off. Even if they guess you, you can still win the masked singer.

Yeah if she is from the Cheetah girls I have no ideal who it is. They had some one from the Cheetah girls last time, didn't know who she was.

Nah not really. just thought this show went off the air in the 90's. But then again been working Sunday nights for over 20 years. Though I never see any comercials for it.

Ok Trivialpursuit what are your picks for group C??? Honestly I'm stump. The only one I guess is Lance Bass because I know he tried to go into outerspace. Robin Thick was kinda right by guessing Tina Fey for Sarah Palin.

I did some digging and looking around. Here are the popular opinions. I'll bold the ones I'm more onboard with (not that the others are not possible).

First, the Sarah Palin reveal had me shook. She scorns Hollywood all the time, and yet she's right in the middle of it? She didn't endear herself to anyone with it. I just can't stand her. Anyhoo...


Night Angel: It's Kandi Buress. She's on Housewives of Atlanta, but she's also a member of the girl group Xscape (they had hit songs). She's a well rounded songwriter, so her fame goes beyond the Housewives. The old ladies (grandmas) in a gang: Old Lady Gang is her restaurant in Atlanta. "4, 5, 6" (door numbers) is a song she sang on with Solé . The key with #2 - she was on the 2nd season of Celebrity Big Brother, the houseguests are given a symbolic key to enter the house and it's taken away when they're evicted. She also wrote the song "No Scrubs" for TLC, so look for that clue soon. She's ridiculously talented as a singer. I'm solid on this one. Her name has been floated over last season and early this year.

Astronaut: probably Hunter Hayes. The skeleton foot probably lends to him contributing a song (remake of "Almost Paradise") on the 2011 remake of Footloose (a loose foot). A lot of fans recognized his voice, too. I don't know much about HH, but if his fans know his voice, I'll follow them for now. I don't get the tool box, broom, pitch perfect, or his "dream of flying high" references. There was a Hawaiian lei in the package. Lei could be a sideways way of saying LA, which is the state abbreviation for Louisiana, which is where he's from.

T-Rex is Jojo Siwa. Body language and dancing are spot on. That stomp high energy thing is typically her. The compass N W is a nod to her being friends with North West (Kim & Kanye’s daughter). The pink slime - She’s famous for making homemade slime. Jojo was also picked out of Dance Moms show (plucked from obscurity from dozens). The U balloon... has a singled called “Number 1 U." The stars are part of her aesthetic. There are jackets she’s worn covered with colored glittered stars. (I don't know her, but she's a child star right now. But I knew a few deets like that.)

Rhino - some think Trace Adkins (he’s 6’6 and the Rhino is TALL). Other clues: Trace was an offensive lineman at Louisiana Tech but left due to knee injury. the Pitcher could be a nod to him formerly being an alcoholic (addiction; crashed and burned). He was inducted to the Grand Ole Opry (pic of a guitar from the GOO). I'm moderately open to this.

Swan: Jennifer Love Hewitt is the popular thought for now. Ghost: Ghost Whisperer Pool floatie is a heart: Jennifer LOVE Hewitt. She’s also studied tap dance and ballet by age 5 (the swan was doing ballet). Megaphone: She directed 3 episodes of Ghost Whisperer and The Client list. She said, "As I bare my soul to you” - her last album was called BareNaked. Vampire teeth could be a nod to her being in some horror or supernatural movies (I Know What You Did Last Summer). Sarah Michelle Gellar was floated for a while because of the ghosts and vampire teeth, but the rest doesn't lend to her. I'm pretty solid on this one. It sounds like her voice, although she seemed nervous last night. I wonder if there'll be a 911 or List reference soon. (The show she's on now is 9-1-1.)

Palin's was a mystery, but the elephants were a nod to being a Republican. The Octobear calender had a LIVE on a Saturday date, she was on SNL during an October broadcast. Don't wake the bear is probably a nod to Alaska, and something she's said on Fox at some point.

Wow except for Jennifer Love Hewitt I don't know any of those picks.

Yeah I caught that in the clues, was thinking North West had a Kardashian connection some how. But the clues can be misleading too. Like Wayne Brady kept stressing super hero in his clue package because he did a guest appearance on Black Lightning, not that he his known for that.

Like I said earlier Robin Thicke kinda got it right with guessing Tina Fey since she did Sarah Palin on SNL. The previous season I was getting a feel for Tree being Celine Dion even though I knew it wasn't her. Turned out it was Anna Gasteyer as Tree, Anna Gastryer would do Celine Dion on SNL.

Kandi is the one with the hat on sideways.

https://www.youtube.com/w...LLiG2_igZA

Trace Adkins has been around for decades in country music.

Hunter Hayes I only know the name. He's in his early 20s.

Jojo Siwa I only know from Shane Dawson & company being obsessed with her.

When I went back to watch, it sounds exactly like JLH.

Yeah come to think of it I've heard him before. Yeah Rhino is probably him, another possibilty is Blake Shelton. Yeah I think Swan is Jennifer Love Hewit as well. Don't know who Jojo Siwa is but the clue package was definitely about a person being on a reality competition show. Was thinking a survivor contestant but I think you are right.

I mean, Jojo Siwa is 16 years old, so she's not been on a competition show. Dance Moms was just that horrible reality show about kids in a dance class.

Well Swan was Bella Thorne. I've heard of her but didn't know what she looked like or what she is known for.

So she was not a kid dancer on that show???

kpowers said:

Yeah, I don't readily know her. That one really threw me.

Still firm about Jojo Siwa. But the rest of the clues are so hard, nothing clicks. Anywhere. Nothing.

My cousin and I are at odds about Rhino. She thinks it's Tim Tebow, I'm sticking with Trace Adkins for now.

Still solid on Hunter Hayes and Kandi Burress. The castle & strawberry was a reference to Castleberry, a part of Atlanta where her Old Lady Gang restaurant is located (one of three locations). The lipstick on the mirror could be a reference to Xscape's first album, Traces of my Lipstick.

Okay so, Jojo is out. I think it's a lot about song choice. These people pick some weird ass song for them and they get booted.

But let's talk Rhino. It's not Trace Adkins. Because his voice was too high of a register tonight. I wasn't buying into the Tim Tebow thing much either.

However, a new name has surfaced. Barry Zito. He's a ball player. He wrote a memoir recently that talked a lot about his ups and downs and how his wife helped him through it. Let's talk about his wife. Amber Seyer, a former Miss Missouri. On a map, Missouri was highlighted with a crown on it - as in a pagent winner's crown. He's also 6'2, so the taller stature fits the bill.

ALSO - and this is a deep dive - the Rhino or his friend (I forget) mentioned the number 1000. He also told Robin Thicke "we're on the same track together." Okay, so... In 2012, there was an Eddie Murphy movie called A Thousand Words. On the soundtrack is a song by Robin Thicke "Lost Without U." There's another song "Butterflies" co-written by... wait for it... Barry Zito. So the "track" they're on is a soundtrack. There was also a butterfly reference in his first clue package. The references of a diamond ring and pitcher of tea are possibly baseball references. Diamond. Pitcher.

During the group song, his clue on the screen was he "doesn't like long walks by the water." Well, in baseball - players walk. I assume the water is because he played in the bay area for the Giants and A's.

The Super Nine is going to be good:

Kangaroo: Jordyn Woods (probably?)

White Tiger: Gronk

Turtle: Jessie McCartney

Banana: Bret Michaels

Frog: Bow Wow

Kitty: ? (Lucy Hale has been floated, but only slightly)

Night Angel: Kandi Burruss

Astronaut: Hunter Hayes

Rhino: Barry Zito

Oh wow I don't know who most of these people are. If I was the host I would need to have an ear piece with some one in the booth telling me who these people are.

Could Rhino be Blake Shelton??? Big tall country singer

Robin Thick is like me, he doesn't know to much of the young mask singers are. He didn't really know who Jojo Siwa is (like me) and just went a long with Jenny and Nicole, just like last season when they had some one from the Cheetah girls on it.

kpowers said:

No way. Not with all the baseball references, and the Missouri w/ a crown reference. It's pretty much 1000% Barry Zito.

Don't underestimate Thicke. He's been around singing since the 90s and writing music all that time whether he's been putting out his own music or not. But yeah, he may not have known Jojo Siwa (I didn't either per se). He probably knows OF her, at best.

I'm excited for the final 9. I think I'm going to be pulling for the Night Angel aka Kandi Burruss. I also predict White Tiger aka Gronk is going to be out sooner than later. It's a singing competition and he doesn't have the chops. His fun energy won't be enough to maintain him. I think Night Angel, Astronaut, Turtle, Kangaroo and Kitty are going to go further than the rest. I predict it could be down to Kitty & Night Angel, maybe even Kangaroo in there somewhere near the end.

Well he did say he was not too familiar with them

So Gronk got de-masked, which I'm glad. He's horrible as a singer, and he's doing these talky-rap type songs that don't require actually singing. The bottom three wasn't surprising, really. They were the least of their respective groups.

I'm glad Gronk pointed out the cow skiing picture was his name - COW-SKI. Gron-COW-SKI, as I noted weeks ago. Nailed it.

Still don't know the Kitty and not solid on Kangaroo. Night Angel (Kandi Burruss) did amazing tonight.

The Snoop thing threw me for a minute! But a fun moment.
