S06.E03: Group B Premiere

[The Crazed Spruce]

Quote

Group B members make their debut; an unmasking.

I have zero guesses. Fully stumped. Fergie was a good guess for the Queen of hearts or whatever the costume was. But who is friends with Hillary Swank and Chris Pratt that would be on these shows?!

[Taeolas]

And here was the Ru Paul guess for Cupcake. I don't get RuPaul, but Cupcake feels like it may still be a male singer in there. The singing voice didn't sound female at all, despite all the guesses for the deep female singers. And I don't really think it's RuPaul either; Cupcake's singing voice felt too deep for Ru. 

By the time it got to Dalmatian, I was sure Dalmatian was going to be the one going. Queen of Hearts, Mallard and Cupcake put on fantastic performances (IMO). While Dalmatian was good, it didn't feel quite as audience favorite as the others. And the Banana Splits duo gimmick is too good to waste on a single performance.

Speaking of Banana Splits, I do wonder if Banana will sing as well in the future? Splits was the dominant singer on a solo song, so all Banana had to do was mime piano playing (It is the Masked Singer, not the Masked Musician after all). Without hearing his real voice it will be harder to guess the duo.

Cupcake's voice sounded kinda masculine to me at first, too, but after I rewatched the performance, her voice sounded deep, but feminine. And you ask me, she sounded a like like Leslie Jones.

Cupcake is gender bending in my mind. I have male guesses. Female guesses. Nonbinary and Trans guesses. 

I will be surprised when Cupcake is unmasked. That's all I know. The speaking voice was more feminine. So they know we are lost.

I'm a millennial, but I don't really know Tyga. I think he has some connection to the Kardash. family so I haven't followed his career. He has a cute smile. I like that rappers can be happy these days. It's not "mean mug" 24/7 like so many rappers in the aughts.

Tyga is Kylie Jenner’s baby daddy.

I'm GenX, and while I don't really listen to his stuff, I have at least heard of Tyga.

[realdancemom]

Baby boomer so don't know Tyga.  He was good but the singers in this group are really good.  It would be a bummer if the Group B Wild Cards were bad.  So far, it seems that people are having fun just being there.

I agree with Katherine McPhee and David Foster for Banana Split.

The only other guess I have is for Mallard and I think it's Willie Robertson from Duck Dynasty. He sounded a bit like Jeff Foxworthy, too.

I wouldn't have ever thought of McPhee and Foster, but after it was guessed, that's all could see, especially when they showed a shot of Banana standby by her. He stood old! LOL!

I did think one of the Duck Dynasty guys for Mallard too. My other guess was Harry Connick Jr taking a hard turn into country.

Tyga did date Kylie Jenner, but he’s not her baby daddy. Her baby daddy is Travis Scott. I can’t believe I know this.

Banana Split as Katharine and David makes sense based on his piano playing and the fact that the banana’s voice is absolutely beautiful, but part of me wonders if they would think they are “too good” for this show. They seem a bit stuffy… she takes herself very seriously, and he is old school musical theater.

[Maverick]

 I thought Katherine McPhee when Banana Split was signing but figured that wasn't it when Jenny guess her.  As for being too good, Katherine was on that I Can See Your Voice show Ken hosted where she sang with one of the contestants so I doubt she'd turn this down.

This group definitely stumped me.    I thought it was interesting that Cupcake needed an "assistant" to guide him/her not only in the video montage but coming in and out.     For some reason the voice made me think of Ruth Pointer of the Pointer Sisters though I think her voice is deeper.

I have nothing for the other masks.
