Cow
(“Rhythm Nation,” Janet Jackson) Cow got here out and had us a little bit underwhelmed up on the platform, however as he made his means down this grew to become a tour de drive and one of the crucial spectacular vocal and total performances we have ever seen on this present. He sounded unbelievable, with energy vary, falsetto and all of the issues! Then, he had a dance breakdown that was otherworldly. This will likely be a type of performances we’ll see in highlights for years — and we might’ve by no means thought somebody may do that track justice!
Guesses: Cow undoubtedly had the panel scrambling when he revealed he took on this character to throw his buddies on the panel off his scent … as in they know him. He additionally mentioned he is used to carrying totally different hats, which was too pointed to only be referring to abilities. We’re pondering he is a hat man.
He additionally mentioned the costume was in tribute to his mom, who taught him the significance of being sturdy and delicate. As for these dance strikes, Cow deliberately taught himself new strikes for this totally different character, which he discovered refreshing, but additionally signifies he has some well-known strikes.
“I used to be a fan of the present earlier than I received right here. I’ve all the time needed to do that present and so that is already a dream come true,” mentioned Cow, showing to placed on a special talking cadence to additional throw the panel. “I am simply having a ball.

Within the Group A Finals, Cow gushed about how a lot his mother means to him, each as his greatest supporter now and literal supporter rising up. He recalled her working “seven jobs” without delay to help his household, which is why his dream was to make it large enough that he may help her, which he is been capable of do.

Cow was undoubtedly feeling the 2000s semi-finals theme as that is when all of it got here collectively for him. He recalled packing up a van along with his buddies and acting on prime of it in entrance of the Capitol Information constructing, satisfied he’d get a deal. Safety threw them out as an alternative.

However, he mentioned, they stored coming again and now his image hangs within the halls of that constructing. Visible clues included a gavel, a birthday cake with one candle on it and a newspaper. On-stage, the brand new clue was a banner studying “MOOOsical.” Cow mentioned, “The 2000s have been actually, actually good to me. A lot, the truth is, that I received to star in a musical.”
The prior clue bundle noticed Cow actually emphasizing how vital household is to him. He has youngsters of his personal and regardless of all of the temptations of fame, he is all the time made positive to place household first. Maybe that is as a result of he did not have a dad when he was rising up.
The truth is, he mentioned he did not have lots of constructive male function fashions in any respect, arising in a home of all ladies. He additionally credited this with the actual fact he is a delicate soul. New photos included a crimson boxing glove with a yellow down arrow on it and a crayon drawing of a crimson coronary heart drawn by his calves — ahem, kids.
His on-stage clue got here out in a large purple bowl, out of which Le’Veon pulled a pair of faucet sneakers. To this, Cow mentioned, “Very like a Tremendous Bowl Halftime Present, I’m recognized for my killer moo-ves.”
In his first clue bundle, he instructed us he did not even know fame was in his future, believing he was as an alternative destined for a reasonably easy life at residence.

However the whole lot modified when he realized he may write, presumably referring to music. He mentioned he is since gone on to win a number of Grammys and traveled the world with “hit after hit after hit.”.
Photographs included the date July 4, a Basic Culinary Delicacies for Cows cookbook and the recipe “Basic Cow Cake,” which he proceeded to combine and bake via the clue bundle. HIs first on-stage clue got here in a popcorn bucket with a “Blockbuster Film” ticket. He defined, “One of many higher issues recognized about me all began with a moo-vie.”
Robin Thicke was pondering of “Miss Unbiased” author Ne-Yo, who wrote that track (he thinks) in honor of his mom. Nicole went via a journey tonight, listening to and seeing Ne-Yo within the first half of the efficiency, after which Usher within the second half.
Ken thought Usher, too, tying the soccer to his character from The School. Jenny went out on a limb to twist the youngsters clue to the track “Youngsters” and Billy Porter, but it surely appears a stretch. The web, in the meantime, has been on Ne-Yo this entire time, who is known for his hats and has match the clues extraordinarily nicely. It is also been our favourite guess.

Gazelle
(“Chasing Vehicles,” Snow Patrol) Gazelle had so much to show after choosing up the Ding Dong Preserve It on Bell and she or he lived as much as these expectations together with her strongest efficiency of the season by a rustic mile. There was a lot ache in her voice, we felt it via the masks and our screens. She performed with the melody simply sufficient to place her personal inflection on it and by the top, with the viewers poised on the sting of their seats, her voice broke fantastically together with her personal emotion. This was as palpable a efficiency as anybody has given.
Guesses: This character has actually empowered Gazelle, and the character has a particular that means. She spoke earlier than about dropping somebody near her, however she additionally received a tattoo in honor of that person who occurs to be a gazelle with flowers rising out of its horns — identical to this Gazelle.
“Thanks a lot for saving me and maintaining me right here,” she instructed Ken, “as a result of being right here and being the Gazelle has helped me discover my voice and my confidence in singing once more. And now I by no means wish to cease, so thanks.”
Two weeks in the past, whereas exhibiting a letter with coronary heart stickers for the fellows on the present (Ken, Nick, and Robin), Gazelle talked about being the “hammy, performative child” who grew up placing on exhibits for her household each night time. Whereas she was vastly totally different from the remainder of the fam, her mother and father dropped the whole lot to help her, uprooting their lives, for which she is so grateful.

A significant focus of her second clue bundle was Gazelle’s heritage and distinctive identify. She mentioned she was pressured to vary it professionally at simply eight years previous and casting administrators did not fairly know learn how to place her due to her “distinctive look.” Now, she sees herself as a trailblazer for different little women who appear to be her.
Photographs that we noticed included an indication studying “Risk Stage: 3,” suggesting an leisure triple risk, in addition to a take a look at with the grade A, and a surfboard, which may very well be a surf film, a love of the ocean, or perhaps a Teen Alternative Award.

The primary bundle revealed that she hit up a Broadway present at six years previous (the signal within the clue bundle learn Howdy Doll! which may imply she noticed Howdy Dolly!). That sparked her curiosity in being on the stage, which she says she leaps at any alternative to do.
A kind of alternatives got here as a teen when she entered a nationwide expertise competitors … and “crashed and burned.” After this, she nearly swore off singing for good, however she’s too keen about it. Now, she’s trying to face her fears, which is one more reason we suspect singing is not what she’s recognized for.
With a petite body, that first clue bundle included a Hawaiian shirt, three statues of bulldogs collectively, a director’s chair and a camper within the desert. David Spade then introduced out an LP with “Film Soundtrack” printed on it. “Not solely do I act in films, I additionally sing in them,” Gazelle instructed Nick.
Jenny checked out all of the villain and highschool clues to Excessive Faculty Musical star Ashley Tisdale, whereas Nicole struggled to seek out somebody married who match all the opposite clues, lastly touchdown on Jane the Virgin’s Gina Rodriguez.
Ken, in the meantime, stays satisfied by the voice that it is his pal Constance Wu. However the web has been feeling very assured that it is a teen villain all proper, however one from Fairly Little Liars, Janel Parrish. Let’s simply say the tattoo clue clinched it.

Sea Queen
(“Rescue Me,” Fontella Bass) Sea Queen is certainly an icon and she or he’s received that lovely signature rasp in her voice, however this efficiency felt a little bit phoned in in comparison with her earlier outgoings. It is significantly notable on the heels of each Cow and Gazelle, who floored us and the panel. With everybody world-class at this level, it is time to step it up and Sea Queen simply did not. She hilariously collapsed on the finish and gave a literal mic drop, with the panel noting she’s clearly able to be finished.
Guesses: The primary-ever Wild Card to make the finals, Sea Queen is pleased with her accomplishment, whereas additionally speaking brazenly about how a lot she’s struggled with the costume. A lot of the masked singers have confronted the identical battle, however she talked about claustrophobia, which might be an entire additional hurdle to have to beat.
“It has been wonderful. I have been studying a lot and it is very difficult,” mentioned Sea Queen. “I really feel like I am a greater entertainer due to this present.”
In solely her second look, Sea Queen was already dropping co-star names like Denzel Washington and exhibiting footage of Tyler Perry whereas saying she’s labored with a number of Oscar winners who convey their performing coaches to set.
She additionally revealed that she was as soon as in a tough rock band whereas we noticed a barber pole. On-stage, she dropped one other “Co-Star,” including, “I used to be fortunate sufficient to share the display with Ken. Humorous, not a lot has modified.”

She then detailed her first job at 14 years previous giving excursions at a museum — and getting fired. She received right into a “fancy” boarding faculty via her smarts — however received kicked out.
She mentioned that the twists and turns of her life, although, are why she’s turn out to be such a triple risk. She defines that, although, as “comedy, writing, singing, I’ve finished all of it!” As for visible clues, we noticed a leather-based bag with 4 feminine silhouettes on it, suggesting maybe a lady group?
We additionally noticed a royal crown on show, trains, and a blue CD participant subsequent to a fowl cage. On stage, she was sorted into Slytherin for being “crafty” and “shrewd.” She responded, “Slytherin is smart for me. I’ve all the time been intelligent in my profession. You by no means know what style you will catch me in subsequent.”
Nicole danced round lots of names this season, but it surely all the time comes again to that signature rasp and unbelievable voice. We have been proper there together with her, as has the web. This simply must be Macy Grey, proper? Ken was choosing up what Sea Queen dropped as an enormous gesture and agreed. Nobody can get previous that particular voice.

Donut
(“You Are So Stunning,” Joe Cocker) Donut continued to serenade his late spouse with this efficiency, which was a little bit repetitive towards the center earlier than he began hovering on the finish. He is received a fantastic grit in his voice that pairs along with his clear ardour. We can’t say he nailed the falsetto second on the finish, however there was no denying his authenticity and coronary heart.
Guesses: For his remaining clue bundle, Donut revealed that his spouse’s nickname for him was fritter, after the apple fritter he’d have each Saturday once they had espresso and donuts collectively.

“It was truly my lovely spouse who first mentioned she needed me to be on this present,” Donut revealed. “So having the ability to test this off of her bucket record has given me nice pleasure.”
Donut was mild on clues final week, but it surely was an enormous one as he revealed he’d truly sang with Ray Charles on TV, which is why he selected “George on My Thoughts” as his soundtrack track. We noticed a toy jet aircraft and a crimson dragon within the clue bundle, as nicely.
His “mixtape” clue was titled “Poker Evening.” Donut mentioned to Robin, ‘This combine tape was on repeat each time I frolicked together with your expensive, candy dad.” Sadly, as Robin replied, “My dad knew everyone,” in order clues go, it wasn’t too useful.

It is uncommon that the complete panel agrees on somebody, but it surely’s additionally uncommon that somebody with such a novel signature sound enters the present. Nobody feels like Macy Grey so it is arduous to think about anybody beneath that masks.

So was it sentiment or vocal prowess on the night time that made the distinction? Tonight, coronary heart received out as Donut and Cow superior to the following spherical, leaving poor Gazelle — the final lady standing — to must unmask and reveal her identification.

It was a stronger total vocal efficiency than the primary time we noticed him, although nonetheless not as sturdy as when he had us all tearing up in earlier weeks. Nonetheless, he is received such a wealthy, raspy tone, it is the form of voice that is cocoa in entrance of a roaring hearth whereas it snows outdoors the window.
Guesses: Donut revealed that most individuals do not know that he likes to sing, which cements the concept that he is higher recognized for one thing else (like performing). He is finished practically 20 albums, has 5 primary songs, greater than a dozen prime ten songs and but he is nonetheless not know for this expertise. And so, she needed to place him on this present so individuals may see this aspect of his expertise.
All of this makes John Schneider a good stronger guess as he is been recognized for his movie and tv roles largely from The Dukes of Hazzard to Smallville and on and on, whereas sustaining a profitable and under-the-radar recording profession, as nicely.
When requested what profitable would imply to him, he mentioned, “God is aware of that I may actually, actually use some pleasure in my life proper now. And profitable would give me nice, nice, nice pleasure.”
