Queen of Hearts sangLady Gaga’s “Born this Way” and said they picked their costume because, “I feel like the world’s just so noisy, so I’m here to be a big old blaring, blasting megaphone heart.”
The panel thought Queen of Hearts could be Fergie, Kellie Pickler,Britney Spears,Carrie UnderwoodorRenee Zellweger.
Mallard flew out next. The duck said in their clue package, which displayed a picture of BFFChris Pratt, that they scored a platinum album and grew up “hustlin'” before they found “the human jukebox of a school bus.” Mallard proceeded to sing Big & Rich’s “Save a Horse (Ride a Cowboy).”
The judges tossed out a slew of country stars as guesses for Mallard’s identity, includingJason Aldean,Dierks Bentley, Garth Brooks, Billy Ray Cyrus, Alan Jackson, Sam Hunt and Brad Paisley.
Cannon, 40, then asked Cupcake how they felt about being onThe Masked Singer. “Well, I was supposed to be here with some other sweet things, but now I’m all alone,” the sugary confection confessed.
Scherzinger, 43, said she got “legend vibes” from Cupcake and tossed out Roberta Flack andLeslie Jonesas guesses. The other panelists suggestedTina TurnerandRuPaul.
Dalmatian followed up with their tale of success. “As a kid, I always visualized my success,” the dog said in their clue package. “Growing up, there wasn’t really a playbook for my game, so I had to make my own.” The package featured Edvard Munch’s The Scream painting, a grey cat and a Frisbee.
The pooch said they chose their spotted disguise since “I always feel like I’m the underdog.” Dalmatian received rapperNellyand comediansKevin Hartand Katt Williams as guesses.

Duo Banana Split closed out the celebration. Ice Cream recalled in the clue package their false start in Hollywood, giving up a day job at the first sign of success. “I quit when I thought I got my big break, only to have to beg for it back,” the cone said. But “there’s no such thing as an overnight success,” Banana added. Ice Cream called Banana a collaborator “who sticks with me through the sweet and sour and shares my same wacky dreams.”
Banana Split covered “A Million Dreams” fromThe Great Showman, with Ice Cream on vocals and Banana on piano. Afterward, Cannon asked if the pair had worked together before.
“We don’t work together all the time, but I think when we have worked together in the past, we’ve worked really well,” Ice Cream said.
The panel tossed out famous exes such asJennifer LopezandMarc AnthonyandGwyneth PaltrowandChris Martin, as well as married couplesKatharine McPheeandDavid FosterandFaith HillandTim McGraw. They also proposedLa La LandcostarsEmma StoneandRyan Gosling.
Then it came time for the studio audience, at-home superfans and judges to cast their vote for their favorite performance. With the votes counted, Cannon revealed that Dalmatian received the least amount and would have to unmask.
Underneath the swaggy canine costume was rapperTyga.
