The Masked Singer Season 5 Clues Updated; Bad Week for Ocean Life
By the time the credits rolled on Wednesday night's "Super 8" round of FOX's The Masked Singer, host Nick Cannon and panelists Jenny McCarthy, Ken Jeong, Nicole Scherzinger, and Robin Thicke (plus guest judge Rita Wilson) officially welcomed Black Swan, Chameleon, Piglet, Robopine, Russian Dolls, and Yeti to the "Spicy 6" round- and one step closer to becoming season champion.
