It was a dual elimination on a special Thursday edition of “The Masked Singer,” as the show celebrated both Thanksgiving and the Peanuts characters by eliminating both the Royal Knight and Sherlock Hound. Royal Knight was revealed to be the singer and actress Jana Kramer (“One Tree Hill”) while Sherlock Hound was unmasked as former baseball player Bronson Arroyo. The Royal Knight was the first to be unmasked.
Among the show’s panelists, Jenny McCarthy-Wahlberg got it right with Jana Kramer. Rita Ora said Anna Faris. Ken Jeong thought it was Kelly Ripa.
Robin Thicke named Busy Philipps. Then, Strawberry Shortcake and Sherlock Hound competed in a battle royale, performing “Shivers,” by Ed Sheeran. Strawberry Shortcake won and moved on to the quarterfinals, while Sherlock Holmes was unmasked.
For Sherlock Holmes, Robin Thicke and Ken Jeong both got it right with Bronson Arroyo. Jenny McCarthy-Wahlberg went with Scott Stapp of the group Creed. Rita Ora said it was Hozier.
In their final regular performances, Kramer sang “Holiday,” by Madonna, while Arroyo performed “Ho Hey,” by The Lumineers. It was “Peanuts Night” on the show — celebrating “A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving,” and also next year’s 75 anniversary of the “Peanuts” comic strip, which launched in 1950. The show opened with the “Masked Singer” panelists and costumed Peanuts characters around the Thanksgiving dinner table, followed by Rita Ora and Robin Thicke performing “You Make.
