The Masked Singer 14 Premiere: Which two celebrities were unmasked on the premiere
The premiere is an all-out battle with 5 head-to-head performances and the season’s first double-unmasking in the all-new “Premiere” season premiere episode of The Masked Singer.
Ken Jeong, Rita Ora, Robin Thicke and Jenny McCarthy. Nick Cannon hosts.
The show opens with a group number from the K-Pop Demon Hunters.. Even Ken sings along. 15 celebrities will compete this year, and one is the most celebrated ever (according to Nick!)
Galaxy Girl vs Handyman
Galaxy girl clues: From a young age, she has been on top of the world. She walked away at one point. Welcome 2 LA. She paused and then had a meteoric rise. Friday the 13th.
Galaxy Girl performance: Super Graphic Ultra Modern Girl Girl by Chappell Roan. Galaxy girl sings with a decent pop voice. She sings with a limited range, but her tone is pretty good. She could last at least for awhile.
Galaxy loves a crowd and wants to have fun. Rita thinks it’s an international style. She guesses Lindsay Lohan. Jenny guesses Jennifer Love Hewitt. Ken guesses Emma Stone.
Handyman clues: He was a scrappy tough guy on the west coast. ACE is a clue. He started hanging around with famous people.
Handyman performance; Shake Your Groove Thing by Peaches and Herb. OK, he’s not a singer. He’s talk singing in a gruff voice. Maybe an actor? Galaxy has nothing to worry about here. His daughter dared him to sign up! Ken guesses Idris Elba. Hm. Robin guesses Tone Loc. Rita guesses Vin Diesel. Nick does not buy that.
Results of first head to head
The votes are in! Galaxy Girl is safe and will move on. Handyman is in Jeopardy.
Pugcasso vs Queen Corgi
Pugcasso clues: He was supposed to take over the family business. Home plate. Big Ben. He went from nobody to top dog. We painted success.
Pugcasso performance: Ordinary by Alex Warren: I was expecting Pug to be a weak singer. But surprise surprise–he’s solid. He’s got a good tone and delivers plenty of emotion, even in a dog suit.
He’s a private person and Masked Singer is something new, Pug says. Ken can’t think of baseball clues. He guesses Dan Reynolds. No way. Rita guesses Darren Criss. NOPE. Robin guesses Ryan Tedder.
Queen Corgi clues: College was not for her. She started influencing from college. Physics is a clue. Now she’s a trail blazer. Don’t think of raining on her parade.
Queen Corgi performance: Don’t Rain on My Parade from Funny Girl – Wow props to a non-singer attempting to cover Barbra Streisand. She’s not terrible, but not great either. A pop song would have been better.
Rita guesses Nikki Blonsky from Hairspray. Ken guesses Maya Rudolph. Uh, Maya is a terrific singer. Jenny guesses Aidy Bryant. Queen is new to singing and performing live.
Kylie Cantrell plays Rita’s daughter in descendents. She reveals she’s on the Masked Singer tonight, but won’t reveal her costume.

Pugcasso wins the match up and will move forward. Queen Corgi is in Jeopardy.
Scarab vs Croissants
Scarab clues: Golden Goddess most decorated. She has done it all. She knew Prince. She has gold in her trophy shelf. She’s been at it a long time. Scales.
Scarab performance: Set Fire to the Rain by Adele – She’s a good singer. And probably, according to the clues, is a legacy level singing star. Won a bunch of awards in the past, got played on the radio at one time.
Scarab joined Masked Singer because she’s been guessed A BUNCH. Ken knows EXACTLY WHO IT IS and makes a ridiculous guess–Whoopi Goldberg. Jennifer guesses Viola Davis. Robin guesses Sheryl Lee Ralph.
Croissants clues. They are a duo, it seems. Upper crust socialites and it all came crumbling down. OH NO DOUBT it’s those idiots who went to jail for swindling people, Todd and Julie Chrisley. They were stars of that stupid reality show, Chrisley knows best. And then Trump gave them a pardon. The two are grade A a**hats
Croissants performance: Jailhouse Rock by Elvis Presley – These two? SO THIRSTY for that fame. Pathetic. They suck. They’ll lose the round, and hopefully will be eliminated tonight.
Robin guesses Snooki and The Situation. Lols no. Jenny guesses The Chrisleys. That’s who it is. She calls them amazing. No they are not. Rita guesses Spencer and Heidi.

Scarab wins the round. The Croissants are in jeopardy. Jenny is actually mad. She’s an idiot.
Snow Cone vs Stingray
Snow Cone clues: She’s been misunderstood. She was a model at first. She got her big break. She landed a role on one of TVs hottest shows. But Hollywood iced her out and she’s trying to shake the nerves.
Snow Cone performance: When I Group Up by Pussycat Dolls – Hm. She’s not a singer. In fact, her singing voice is really bad. It sounds like she messed up her career somehow and is now trying to make a comeback.
She’s a big fan of the show. Jenny guesses Mischa Barton from the OC. Rita guesses Nicole Richie. Ken guesses Taylor Momsen from Gossip Girl.
Stingray clues: He’s everywhere including Michelin and Met Gala. And the Chalet Marmont. His mom was famous too. He has a bunch of friends who have done the show.
Stingray performance: Stayin Alive by Bee Gees – Now, Stingray is a singer. The arrangement here is super easy listening to match Stingray’s smooth vibe. It’s a very pleasant voice, and he can work the stage (considering).
Nick knows who it is. Heh. The two are friends, Nick says. Ken makes the obvious guess, Lenny Kravitz. Lenny’s voice is grittier. Jenny guesses Jayden Smith. Rita guesses Little Romeo.

The winner of the match up is Stingray. Snow Cone is in Jeopardy.
Googly Eyes vs Cat Witch
Googly Eyes clues: He’s a massive star. Monster hits. Bagels. Cake mix.
Googly Eyes performance: Turn Down for What – Googly may be a Latin musician. He’s not a great singer in a conventional sense. He’s shouty, but has stage presence.
Ken guesses David Ortiz “Big Poppy.” That’s a good guess. Robin guesses Daddy Yankee. Rita wants to know the rules of baseball. He says he doesn’t know. She guesses Wesley Snipes. That’s a STUPID guess.
Cat Witch clues: Kylie Cantrell reveals at the break that she’s Cat Witch. Not sure what the point of this strategy is. The viewers know who she is but the judges don’t. Hm. She has longed for the stage since childhood. Soda pop.
Cat Witch performance: Kylie has been performing forever. She’s an actress and a singer, an quite obviously a pro. Will Rita recognize her voice? They star in The Descendants franchise together.
Rita guesses Charli D’amelio. She’s not a good singer. Jenny guesses Addison Rae. Ken guesses Lisa from Blackpink. Rita doesn’t guess correctly. Maybe she’s lying.
