FOX The Masked Singer: Night Angel in the “It Never Hurts to Mask: Group C Playoffs” episode of THE MASKED SINGER airing Wednesday, March 18 (8:00-9:01 PM ET/PT) on FOX.
The Masked Singer season 3 episode 8 featured the second performances and clue packages from the Group C contestants, including the Night Angel.
Read on for the top clues we’ve learned about the Night Angel’s identity so far, and leading guesses for who might be under the mask.
‘The Masked Singer’ Night Angel Clues
During the Night Angel’s episode 7 clue package, she teased “Like an angel, I’ve felt deeply blessed my entire life,” adding later that she is also “a little bit dangerous and a little bit sweet.”
The major visual clues during that first clue package were a motel, ducks, the number 4, and angry grandmothers.
She doubled down on her reasoning for choosing the Night Angel costume during a brief on-stage conversation with Nick Cannon, saying “I really love the duality of the night angel, I like that she can be so sweet but then sometimes she’s just, like, bad.” When she spoke, a British accent could be detected, though it’s possible that was put on to throw off the audience’s guesses.
At the start of her episode 8 clue package, she said that performing on the Masked Singer stage “reminds me of the joy I have for music”
Then, she teased that years ago “I was sitting in my room surrounded by other angels, but I was lost in the crowd.” That is when she realized she needed to make a change in her life.
The major visual clues that stood out in the clue package were a castle, strawberry, a roaring fireplace, a white hand fan, a pitcher of sweet tea (which she refused), and a purple heart. “Empire” and “hustle” were key phrases that the judges picked up on.
At the end of the package, Night Angel said “Destiny led me back to the stage and hopefully I can give you a million reasons why I belong here.” That seemed to be a play on words with her second song choice – “Million Reasons” Lady Gaga.
Her yearbook quote to Nick Cannon suggested lending “a helping wing.” Robin Thicke wondered if that might be a hint to the secret celebrity’s involvement with charity organizations.
Night Angel on ‘The Masked Singer’ Guesses
After her impressive debut performance in episode 7, viewers took to Twitter to predict that the Night Angel is Kandi Burress.
Based on Night Angel’s second performance, Jenny McCarthy guessed Regina King, guest judge guessed Sia or Jessica Simpson, and Nicole Scherzinger guessed Taraji P. Henson.
Who blessed us with that performance as #NightAngelMask? #TheMaskedSinger
When The Masked Singer asked Twitter users “Who blessed us with that performance as #NightAngelMask?” Kandi continued to be the most popular guess, but Brandy’s name emerged as a new possibility.
[BEWARE OF SPOILERS] UPDATE: At the end of the episode, the Swan was eliminated and unmasked, revealing Bella Thorne as the celebrity behind the mask. This means that the Night Angel will perform again next week, competing for a spot in the “Super 9.” Episode 9 will feature new clues and guesses to hopefully help us figure out who the Night Angel is. Until then, keep guessing!
Tune in to new episodes of The Masked Singer season 3, Wednesday nights at 8/7c on FOX.
