McKenna Grace provided his video clue, which was, “Not solely is he an unbelievable performer, however he is a fair higher individual. He is like a dad on the set. I would know this as a result of I’ve co-starred with him.” Griffin shared, ‘McKenna’s implausible, she’s had a terrific profession, and one in all my youngsters thinks I am very cool as a result of I as soon as labored together with her.”

Jenny was impressed by the juxtaposition of going from somebody who was bullied to “bringing it like this on the stage. I’m blown away by you!”

Rita leaned again into her Freddie Prinze Jr., tying the “vampire bat” to his spouse, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Sarah Michelle Gellar. Ken, although, thinks the Freaks & Geeks allusion might confer with Jason Segel, who starred in Cannot Hardly Wait with Melissa Joan Hart.

Jenny, although, determined that possibly the Bat is in reference to Batman as a substitute of a vampire, to assist her Robert Pattinson guess, however he does not really feel just like the type of star who would do that present. Rita additionally shared that Robert launched her to her husband, Taika Waititi, and he or she thinks he’d be too shy to do that … however the clues do match.

Rita was torn between Matthew Lillard and Freddie Prinze Jr., who each have spooky pedigrees to tie into the Halloween-themed video tape. Ken, although, shifted to maybe David Arquette, as a result of badge, in Scream, which even Jenny needed to concede was “not unhealthy,” agreeing with Jenny. “I will take all of these.” Griffin mentioned.

On-line guesses included our preliminary guess of James Van Der Beek, in addition to continued assist for David Arquette, in addition to guesses for Adam Pascal, and Mark-Paul Gosselaar. James was recognized in August 2023 with colorectal most cancers, holding his battle personal till November 2024, which might give him that sense that life is valuable.

(“Cleanin’ Up the City,” The Busboys) House Ranger went method old-school on this observe, with a reasonably respectable vocal with the tune’s extra tempered expectations. It wasn’t a terrific efficiency on the subject of singing, nevertheless it was entertaining in a bouncy, goofy, playful type of method. This man’s obtained a variety of charisma and stage presence, that is for positive.

Clues & Guesses: His Ghostbusters week clues had been all about how he hustled towards his large break, selecting up odd jobs like shifting furnishings and catering, whereas we additionally noticed some development tools. He mentioned that he and his buddies had large desires, however nobody was , till they known as a “beastly band of boys” — which must be the Beastie Boys, proper?

House Ranger mentioned, as we noticed a mixer board, that with their new pals, their profession went into hyperdrive, launching a motion that went worldwide. We additionally noticed an previous field tv tuned to “Channel 0” and a crown alongside the way in which.

His on-stage clue regarded like a tiny moon rover with a glowing Earth globe on it. “The Ghostbusters all the time save the day. And I’d’ve helped them out, however I used to be busy touring the world.”

In his clue package deal, the House Ranger — who’s notably shorter than Nick — mentioned TMS has been on his bucket listing for years. He talked about successful gold and scoring {hardware} to put on round his neck, whereas displaying a report card with an A+ for PE.

We additionally noticed a home of playing cards and a pink field of sweets as the person who claimed to be Taylor Swift’s besties described himself as futuristic and dwelling on his personal planet, similar to his character. He additionally conceded he isn’t everybody’s cup of tea. “Taylor Swift is my homie,” House Ranger instructed Nick. “We go method again. She’s one in all my besties.”

She additionally shared that Jenny has been manifesting this individual for a very long time, with Jenny including that the heart-shaped field of sweets could possibly be for his Taste of Love collection. Might this be Taste Flav, who blew up with Public Enemy across the time of the Ghostbusters?

His iconic clock undoubtedly matches the vibe of his belt buckle, however maybe probably the most telling connection is that the Beastie Boys invited Public Enemy to open for them on their Licensed to Unwell tour in 1987, which helped catapult Public Enemy to new heights of fame. Oh, and he is admitted to being “King Swiftie” earlier than the pair lastly obtained to fulfill face-to-face in 2023.

(“Radioactive,” Think about Dragons) Boogie Woogie has obtained an unbelievable voice, crammed with a lot character and grit. He completely nailed the vocals on this one, at the same time as he mentioned its creepier vibe is method out of his acquainted constructive zone. There was a touch of grit, unbelievable energy and management, and only a true sense of how you can use his instrument.

Clues & Guesses: Seems Boogie Woogie is a ray of positivity and sunshine on a regular basis, one thing he obtained from his mother and father, who made child reveals. He mentioned that he is been known as all the pieces from naive to sheltered to pretend by the haters, however although it hurts, he will not let it get him down, or change who he’s.

He even shared that he largely will get instructed his positivity is inspiring, and has even saved lives. Visually within the package deal we noticed a telescope with a star on the tip of it, a disco ball, and a pair of faucet sneakers.

Ernie Hudson introduced out his Ghostbusters clue, which was a scroll that learn “Doctorate of Medical Science.” Boogie Woogie defined, “Nothing scary about this clue. In actual fact, being connected to this present was a really nice shock.”

BW — can we name you BW? — got here out with a lot pump and swag in his first look, slamming into Nick and clearly having a blast trying like an outsized disco Muppet. As he owned this disco stage his clue package deal revealed that he spent his childhood desirous to be the focus.

As he tried to shift into leisure, he discovered blended success, although. He mentioned he had desires of being a clown, instructing himself to juggle, and a magician.

Visible clues included 4 quarters from 1972 in his busker’s magician’s hat, a Boogie Woogie Journal, and the pink, yellow, and blue balls he juggled. On stage, he mentioned, “My fundamental magic trick for this complete scenario is to make the opposite monsters and singers disappear.”

“Let’s not be ridiculous,” Ken mentioned. “Boogie Woogie is George Clooney and I will inform you why.” After all, he was connecting the physician present clue to ER, nevertheless it was in any other case his traditional idiocy. Jen liked his ardour for that “horrible” guess, earlier than Jenny thought of Doogie Howser, M.D. star Neil Patrick Harris, who’s been identified to juggle and carry out some magic.

Rita, although, thinks this could be a bona fide skilled singer, tying the sneakers to “I Really feel Like Dancing” and Jason Mraz. She even mentioned she sang backup for him as a teen and it type of appears like him … possibly.

Social media digs the NPH guess, and nonetheless suppose it could be Brandon Urie, however one other identify has picked up much more steam. And he is a bona fide musician, for Rita. Might this be Andy Grammer, who’s father was notable youngsters’s singer Robert “Purple” Grammar? Andy additionally admitted to Parade again in 2015 that he thought he wished to be a clown earlier than he discovered music.

However maybe most tellingly, his tune “Do not Give Up on Me” went viral in 2019 after it appeared in a poignant scene from Gray’s Anatomy about Meredith’s (Ellen Pompeo) frustrations with the medical system failing sufferers. It was his second observe on the present, after “At all times,” however undoubtedly the extra impactful one.

Then, Detective Fortunate Duck virtually cemented this guess when he laughed at Ken’s Clooney guess and instructed us if we wished to suss the true which means of the clue, we would have liked to make use of our brains, you already know, our “grey matter.” Yuuuup!

We predicted it ought to occur final week and we’re not feeling any totally different after what simply went down this week. Boogie Woogie laid it down, whereas Griffin and Pearl each had robust performances, total, as nicely. Whereas House Ranger is extremely entertaining and was a greater vocalist on this throwback observe, he is simply not on the similar stage as his masked counterparts.

Shaking his knees by the dramatic reveal, and he was proper to be nervous because it was certainly House Ranger going residence, with an “Aw, man!” from Nick for having to say goodbye to his shut pal.

His most significant clue was revealed from the Crack the Case Clue Case was a pair of white-framed sun shades. “Whenever you shine as shiny as I’ve, typically you simply gotta go incognito,” House Ranger mentioned. “Plus, I actually suppose that I look fairly fly in them, anyway.”

• Robin Thicke: Taste Flav
• Jenny McCarthy: Taste Flav
• Ken Jeong: DJ Jazzy Jeff
• Rita Ora: Taste Flav

To be trustworthy, we predict Ken in all probability knew who this was by this level, both, however he knew it was way more entertaining to double down on his unsuitable — however not as horrible as traditional — guess. After all this was Taste Flav, “boyeeeeee!” a real legend of hip-hop, music, and leisure, in addition to an all-around nice human being.

Truthfully, we’re as shocked as Nick and everybody else that it is taken him this lengthy to convey his distinctive taste to this present. They’re each equally off-kilter and delightfully goofy. This union is sort of too good.

The Masked Singer continues subsequent Wednesday with “Grande Ole Opry Night time” at 8 p.m. ET on Fox.
