It's night of nonstop pop
As we groove to unforgettable boy band chart toppers.
Joining us in the celebration,
The stars of "trolls band together,"
Poppy and branch.
Yes!
Now did you guys know that branch used to be in a boy band
Called brozone?
And to celebrate his harmonic history,
We'll be rocking to boy band songs all night long.
Yeah.
That's what I'm talking about.
Tonight group c is back to turn up the volume.
But the final wild card of the season is entering the mix.
Ooh.
So let's get this thing started.
Anteater rocked the group c premiere.
Let's take a peek at how he took the spotlight.
♪ oh, what you do mickey, do mickey ♪
♪ don't break my heart, mickey ♪
Anteater: Last week was a blast
Even though I had to fight my way out of the smack down.
Anteater!
But of course I made it because one thing people should know about me is that I love to win.
That's so why I'm so competitive at everything I do.
Whether it's music or sports,
It's pushed me to become a star in my game.
I wrestled in high school
And was so good I could've gone to college for it,
But I needed more.
So I drove race cars, earned a competition license...
A lot of cars. Could this be a nascar driver?
...And like a boss,
I raced all over america and the uk.
Behind the wheel feels like home, sweet home.
Why are we on the coin? Did we make out with him maybe?
- I don't know. - ( ken laughs )
You can talk the talk,
But in these challenges, you either got it or you don't.
That's why I'm here to prove that I got what it takes
To win it all.
Who doesn't love a little competition?
♪ you are my fire
♪ my one desire
♪ believe when I say
♪ that I want it that way
♪ but we are two worlds apart
- It seems like a familiar voice. - This is a legend.
Yes, a legend.

♪ when I say
♪ that I want it that way

All: Anteater, anteater, anteater!
Wow, the crowd is cheering for the anteater.
Anteater, such an amazing job over here.
Amazing. Soulful.
I mean, you could feel the journey that he's been on,
And you could really feel the pain in his voice,
- You know what I mean? The vulnerability. - The vulnerability.
I thought that was a very soulful, beautiful performance.
- Yes. - Well said.
Well said.
Nick: Indeed.
Now poppy and branch are taking a calm and relaxing tour
Of the studio lot,
And I hear they're finding clues all over the place.
Let's take a look.
( bell rings )
( crashing )
Man: Hey, how'd you two get in here?
- ( laughter ) - come on, really?
( laughter )
Oh, my god. They're so cute.
- Hall of fame. - Oh.
Hall of fame.
I guess the trolls just might know
Something about the hall of fame.
The question is what hall of fame?
Because there was also a star,
So is it the hollywood walk of fame?
Is it the rock and roll hall of fame?
Or some sort of sports hall of fame?
I mean, that voice though feels very iconic.
To me, I was getting the bobs. I was getting the bob seger, the bob dylan.
- It has that texture, right? - Doesn't he?
- No. - Singer, songwriter, he's got folk-- folksy hat.
Thank you. Because they were both in the rock and roll hall of fame.
- Yeah. - But then I was also wishing
That it could also be maybe someone like willie nelson.
- Ken: I would go nuts. - Robin: That would be cool.
Willie nelson got inducted into the hall of fame this year.
- Oh, really? - Wow.
That'd be amazing.
Last week there was a reference to be seen performing
By 40% of the world at one time.
- That's right. - So we started thinking, "is it live aid?"
And another person who has this stature
And might've performed at that could've been paul simon,
But when you say willie nelson, the best guess I can...
And wasn't he part of farm aid?
Yeah, well, farm aid, yeah, farm aid.
That had a bunch of people worldwide watching.
The first farm aid was seen by literally half the country, right?
So same as live aid.
Do you know who else was a part of farm aid?
- Jenny: Who? - John cougar mellencamp.
- Oh! - Yes.
Ken: Yeah, same, last guess as before. Yes.
This week I don't know if you saw the melons
- In the oatmeal. - Both: Oh, that's right.
There was a melon, right? Exactly.
Melon-camp.
I like it. I like it.
Nick: Indeed. Well, one thing we do know,
We love that performance by the anteater.
Head on back to the enchanted forest.
Men in black, please help the anteater out.
Oh, my god. I want a picture.
Oh, my god. Real trolls.
Yay, can I take a picture?
Ken: I like you taking the selfie. It's great.
♪ who is that?

Welcome back to a night full of rainbow glitter,
Ridiculously high hair, and sparkles.
No, we're not talking about robin thicke's dressing room.
It's trolls night on "the masked singer."
Yes!
Candelabra is up next.
Let's see how she lit up the stage in the group c premiere.
Check it out.
♪ na-na-na-na-na
♪ oh, trying to let it go
♪ trying to keep my eyes closed ♪
Candelabra : Making my debut on the "masked singer" stage last week
Was so much fun.
You just owned that entire stage.
Hearing the praise from the panel really set my competitive side aflame.
I think I get my fighting spirit from my childhood.
Growing up, I had to be tough.
My mom was in and out of my life,
And I was on my own a lot
Until some family friends took me in.
But I've learned from a young age
That the only person that I can really depend on was myself.
Dancing shoes? Well, they could be known for their dance moves.
I've worked hard for everything I've got,
And I always strive for more
Because I'm never fully satisfied.
A castle? Have they played royalty?
So tonight I'm not resting on the praise from last week.
I'm gonna get out on that stage
And fight like I always have.

Nick: Candelabra!
You brought me to heaven!
Lighting it up once again. Outstanding.
You got the entire panel on their feet.
Panel, please talk to candelabra.
That was a beautiful song choice,
And you could really tell that music is your medicine.
And you hear that pain
And you feel that struggle and the heart
Through your performance, so thank you so much.
This one is really... I'm struggling up here.
What?
'cause I feel like I know this person.
This person-- I don't--
I need a clue!
- Yeah, right. - That's what I'm saying.
From the stars of "trolls band together,"
Branch and poppy,
I hear they're over there at craft service
Making a mess.
Poppy: Hi!
( both laughing )
Branch, there they are!
All: "real tea."
- Or reality tv. - Right.
Real tea could be reality.
I want you to know that on and off the camera,
I'm keeping it 100 real.
( nick laughs ) okay.
Real tea, okay.
Who are some epic singers that have had their own reality show?
Immediately I'm thinking, okay, tamar braxton,
- Monica, fantasia. - Robin: Yep.
Nicole: But you know who else had a reality show?
- Keyshia cole. - Yep.
- Jenny: Ooh! - Ken: Oh.
Yeah, and we had the princess clue last week,
- And then we saw a castle. - Correct.
Keyshia is known as the princess of hip-hop soul.
Yeah.
Jenny: That's not bad, but you know what?
I'm thinking this artist actually had a documentary
Called "ashanti." princess.
Yes. Princess of hip-hop soul.
- Nicole: Okay. - Ken: I love ashanti.
But I actually like kelly rowland
Because she also had a reality show, "chasing destiny."
Right?
And there was butterfly last week in the clues.
Butterfly in "masked singer" lore was michelle williams,
Also part of destiny's child.
They actually showed I think the butterfly again this week.
They did. They did.
And every guess y'all made up there,
Those are real queens.
- They don't play. - That's right.
Ladies and gentlemen, give it up
For that brilliant performance by candelabra,
Keeping it all the way real.
Men in black, please help her out.
We'll see you when it's time to vote.

For decades, I've been entertaining you,
But recently I've been keeping more to myself
Because the love of my life is no longer here.
And it has left a huge hole in my heart.

Donut, donut, donut!
Wow, not a dry eye in the house.
So emotional, connecting with everyone in here.
Panel, please talk to the donut.
Wow, that was so powerful and so beautiful.
I think we all, you know,
I've lost my father,
And I think we've all lost somebody very important to us
Around this point in our lives, and I really--
I understand what you're feeling,
What you're going through.
And that song choice, your vocal,
Saying "my smile" at the end. You just got us all.
You got us all. It was beautiful.
I thank you very much. It was all for her.
Nick: We feel the emotion. All right.
Well, it's time to check in on branch and poppy
And see if we can get some clues.
- ( gasps ) - branch!
They're doing hair. Hair and seasoning.
Well, I'm well-seasoned,
And I have been enjoyed by several generations.
- Oh, okay. - Wow.
- A veteran donut. - Jenny: Yep.
All right, you guys picking up on anything?
Yeah, I'm just thinking right off the bat,
Of stanley tucci, who is an amazing actor.
Ooh.
And he unfortunately lost his wife due to breast cancer.
The film slate in the clue package
Says number one films.
Stanley has been in "hunger games," "beauty and the beast..."
- "devil wears prada." - "devil wears prada."
Stanley tucci is one of the finest actors of our generation,
So if this is stanley, it would be amazing.
I like that guess.
Nick: Robin, what are you?
Well, when I look at some of the new clues,
I'm thinking could it be somebody like liam neeson?
Who sadly lost wife, natasha richardson.
But in the vocal and the vibrato,
I'm a huge fan of this singer,
And I mentioned it last week.
I still think that's tom jones.
Jenny: What about you, nicole?
Gosh, I think that I'm a big fan of this person.
His first hit came out in the '60s.
He's also a very dear friend of mine,
And I think this could be engelbert humperdinck.
- Robin: Wow. - Whoa!
Way to throw that in there.
A few years ago, his beautiful wife patricia passed,
And I know that it was very raw for him.
But whoever you are, our heart is yours.
- We love you. - Yeah, we love you donut.
I never thought a donut would make me cry.
Such a moving, emotional, and incredible performance.
Y'all keep it going for the donut.

And we will see you when it's time to vote.

( vocalizing )
This thing is huge!
I want one of those for christmas.
Wow. Who is the cuddle monster?
Here are some clues to sift through.
Cuddle monster: Me, a wild card? It's gotta be destiny
Because I was definitely a wild child.
I grew up in a beautiful, but sometimes violent place,
But lucky for me, I got out because of my passion,
A generational talent as some would attest.
I had sponsorship deals, sneakers,
Even a record or two.
Despite all that fame and recognition,
My trauma was keeping up with me,
And I couldn't quiet the monster inside.
Boxing gloves? Maybe he's a professional fighter.
I was self-destructing during the peak of my career.
That's a wall street bull.
Could be a new york athlete?
I couldn't figure out why I was always unhappy and defensive,
So I took a giant step and asked for help.
I learned the tools to tame the rage
Through meditation and positive energy.
Never let your circumstances determine your fate.
Sometimes all you need
Is a change of perspective and persona
To let your inner cuddle monster sing.

Well, let's check in with poppy and branch,
And actually, let's take it down a decibel.
It looks like they've tired themselves out.
Check it out.
Champ. Champion.
This clue should shed light on who I am.
- Ooh. - Nick: Shed light.
Does that help y'all at all?
Well, I didn't hear it in the vocal,
But a lot of the clues point to this person
That famously won five championships with the bulls.
He talks about self-destructing in the middle of his career.
Everybody knows his name.
I think this might be dennis rodman.
- Could be. - Wow.
He's had that hair at some point.
- ( robin laughing ) - that's a good guess,
But this also could be a bit of a swerve
To somebody who has been compared to dennis rodman
Of this generation, draymond green...
Oh, yeah.
...Who is also four-time nba champion.
Robin: That's right.
It said "defensive" in the clues.
- Defensive player of the year. - Yep.
If you look at the sword and shield, golden state warriors.
Okay.
Not a bad guess, y'all. It's not a bad guess.
What do you think, nicole?
I think that cuddle monster
Is someone that we all would love to cuddle with,
And I think it's shaq.
- Oh, yes. - Oh!
I love me some shaquille o'neal.
Ken: That does make sense.
Shaq's putting music out. I know.
I did a song with him back in the day.
- Look it up. - ( laughter )
And then we've got the boxing gloves.
Little known fact--
He duked it out with oscar de la renta.
- The golden boy himself. - Hoya, hoya.
- Oscar de la renta. - No, it was oscar de la renta!
- Jenny: Oscar de la renta! - Not de la hoya, de la renta.
He duked it out. That's what the wedding dress was there for.

Nicole: Yeah!
We are so sad to see you go,
But we can't to see who you are.
Yeah.
This has gotta be one of the most loveable,
Adorable characters we've ever had.
That's true.
We hate to see you go home. Hate to see you go home.
Nick: You lifted the spirits in here.
- Thank you so much. - But you guys know what time it is.
- Yeah, we need your final guesses. - I know.
It's time to get to the business.
- Please. - Robin: Well, you know,
All the clues were pointing to this mega star
That we all know from the nba.
Known for his hairstyles, for wearing a wedding dress,
I think that this is dennis rodman.
Ken: Good guess. That's a great guess.
But I'm thinking this could be this generation's dennis rodman.
- He's four-time nba champion. - Yeah.
I think cuddle monster is golden state warrior, draymond green.
- Jenny: Yes. - Robin: I mean, that's--
I love draymond. I love draymond. Great guess.
Nick: Jenny, what about you?
Pretty similar thoughts.
You know, I know have an in depth education in basketball
Thanks to the kardashians, and...
- I love that. - ...They said, "keeping up with me"
- In the clue package. - Mm.
"keeping up with the kardashians."
- Ah. - Okay.
Jenny: There was also a bull, and tristan thompson
I believe played for chicago at one point.
- He did play for the bulls. - That's true.
Why not? This could be tristan thompson.
- Ken: That's a great guess. - Robin: Not a bad guess.
- Ken: I do like that guess. - Nicole: That's a good guess.
The clues do line up.
Nick: All right, nicole, what you got?
Well, you guys, he has released music.
He's a four-time nba champ as well, ken.
Right, right.
And he once boxed oscar de la renta.
I'm kidding!
He once boxed oscar de la hoya.
I think it's the one and only shaq.
- Aw, great guess. - Shaq.
Jenny: Oh, shaq!
I'm happy with any of these guesses.
- Okay, let's find out. Who is it? - Tristan thompson.
- All right, well, panel,
Let's see if any of you are correct.
- Cuddle monster... - It's time.
...We need to know, who are you?
- Audience, you know the drill. - Who is it?

You literally, when you came out here,
You uplifted everyone's spirits in the room
- And took it to another level. - Yes.
What was it like being the cuddle monster?
Metta: It was an amazing experience.
I love the character and the chakras.

We from the hood, but you know, we like the zen, too, you know what I mean?
Nick: Exactly!
You have such a beautiful energy
