The Masked Singer S04 Semi-Finals Tease Triple Unmasking; Clues Update

So after having survived their respective group rounds, this week's edition of FOX's The Masked Singer brings the "Super Six" of Sun, Popcorn, Jellyfish, Crocodile, Mushroom, and Seahorse back to the stage for a semi-final round of the costumed competition that looks to be loaded with masked melodrama. So what do host Nick Cannon and panelists Jenny McCarthy, Ken Jeong, Nicole Scherzinger, Robin Thicke, and guest panelist Craig Robinson have in store for our semi-finalists? How do two hours of singing and guessing sound to you? Of course, they have to find a different way to wrap things up since it is the semi-finals. Their answer? Two words: triple unmasking.

And ever since I was a kid, growing up in Hollywood surrounded by heartache and instability, I was forced to develop a thick skin. But crocodiles get a bad rap for being cold-blooded, when actually inside I'm a warm, sensitive creature who just wants to be loved back. And I can't wait to share my hidden talent as I make a wicked big splash."

But here, I get the chance to stop playing tug of war with myself and finally expose the dauntless diva from within. Underneath this camouflaged armor I'm harnessing the power of the seahorse to show shiny new sides of myself. Leaving all of my prior fears behind on this path to glory."

Here's a look back at the preview video showcasing our contestants this season, a group that has sold more than 281 million records worldwide combined, appeared in more than 5,475 episodes of television and 151 films, appeared in five NFL Super Bowls, have four stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and one made the Time 100 Most Influential list. Following that, an earlier-released teaser that contained a ton of clues to get viewers' "dumpster fires of speculation" blazing. A queen bee? Mushrooms on what looks like a salad? A UFO? A diamond in a baseball catcher's glove? Old John Lennon-like glasses? Two old hotel room keys, one with a "34" on it? A  bowtie? There are so many that we missed, but you can catch them all (non-Pokemon-style) in the teaser below.
