The Masked Singer Season 10 Finale: Who Will Win the Golden Mask Trophy?
The Masked Singer season 10 finale is just around the corner, and the competition is heating up! With four talented mystery celebrity singers--Donut, Cow, Gazelle, and Sea Queen--competing for the Golden Mask Trophy, the anticipation is at an all-time high. Let's take a closer look at each finalist and their journey to the finale, as well as their chances of winning the coveted prize.
Meet the Finalists
Sea Queen Sings “Love Potion No. 9” | Season 10 | The Masked Singer
The Masked Singer season 10 finale will feature four mystery celebrity singers--Donut, Cow, Gazelle, and Sea Queen--and, although they're all incredible performers, some have a better chance of winning than others. The Masked Singer welcomed back host Nick Cannon and the panelists--Robin Thicke, Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg, Ken Jeong, and Nicole Scherzinger--for its milestone season. With theme nights ranging from Harry Potter to Trolls, season 10 has been thrilling.
The Masked Singer season 10 has unmasked some truly iconic stars. They include Group A's Anthony Anderson (Rubber Ducky), Tom Sandoval (Diver), Michael Rapaport (Pickle), and Ashley Parker Angel (S'More). In addition, Group B's Billie Jean King (Royal Hen), Tyler Posey (Hawk), Ginuwine (Husky), and Sebastian Bach (Tiki) have been unmasked, along with Group C's Luann de Lesseps (Hibiscus), Metta World Peace (Cuddle Monster), John Oates (Anteater), and Keyshia Cole (Candelabra). Now Group A's Cow and Gazelle, Group B's Sea Queen, and Group C's Donut will compete for the Golden Mask Trophy during the season finale. Here's who has the best chance of winning.
Sea Queen: Group B Champion
Gazelle Performs “Uninvited” by Alanis Morissette | Season 10 Ep 1 | The Masked Singer
As the Masked Singer Group B Wild Card contestant, Sea Queen first put her spell on the competition during Harry Potter Night. She sang an enchanting rendition of 'Love Potion No. 9' by The Searchers. She sailed straight to the Group B finals ('I Wanna Rock' Night), singing a powerful version of 'To Be With You' by Mr. Big.
After going head-to-head with Sebastian Bach's Tiki in the Battle Royale, during which they both sang fun versions of 'Nothin' But A Good Time' by Poison, Sea Queen emerged victorious and earned her place in The Masked Singer season 10 finale. During the Holiday Sing-A-Long, Sea Queen treated everyone to a lovely rendition of 'Winter Wonderland' by Ella Fitzgerald.
Although Sea Queen is clearly a legendary singer with stellar vocals and stage presence, she's had the least number of performances in the competition so far. Some of the other contestants, such as Donut and Gazelle, have made more of an emotional connection with the panelists, which could influence who wins. However, in the few performances that Sea Queen has given, she's dominated the stage, and didn't go to the Smackdown in her first round. Sea Queen is a magical performer who has a good chance of winning the competition.
Gazelle: Group A Save
Donut Sings “Georgia On My Mind” by Ray Charles | Season 10 | The Masked Singer
The Masked Singer season 10 contestant Gazelle's stunning first performance of 'Uninvited' by Alanis Morisette blew away the audience and panelists. She followed this on NFL Night with an emotional version of Katy Perry's 'The One That Got Away' and a sweet rendition of 'Lucky' by Britney Spears on 2000s Night. During the Group A finals (Disco Night), Gazelle sang an energetic version of 'On the Radio' by Donna Summer.
Gazelle and Cow made it to the Battle Royale. They both sang awesome renditions of 'I Will Survive' by Gloria Gaynor during the Battle Royale, but Cow made it through to The Masked Singer season 10 finale. However, the words of the song title rang true for Gazelle, as Ken couldn't bear to see her get eliminated. He rang the Ding Dong Keep It On Bell, and used the panelists' only save to keep Gazelle in the competition. During the Holiday Sing-A-Long, Gazelle also sang a joyous rendition of Kelly Clarkson's 'Underneath the Tree.'
Although Gazelle has made an emotional connection with the panelists by sharing her story and giving beautiful performances, the fact that she was saved could hurt her chances of winning. Then again, The Masked Singer season 9's Bishop Briggs (Medusa) was saved, and she won the whole competition. However, her save came early in the competition due to season 9's format. Gazelle never went to the Smackdown in the early rounds, and was a frontrunner to win. Gazelle is an extraordinary performer with an incredible vocal range and entertaining dance moves. It's definitely possible that she could take home the Golden Mask Trophy.
Donut: Group C Champion
Cow Sings “Bones” by Imagine Dragons | Season 10 | The Masked Singer
Since Donut first appeared on The Masked Singer season 10 stage, he's stolen everyone's hearts. From his powerful vocals to his emotional story about his wife's passing, he has captivated the audience and the panelists. On One Hit Wonders Night, Donut wowed everyone with his performance of 'Hooked on a Feeling' by Swede. He followed that with a heartwarming version of 'I Do (Cherish You)' by 98 Degrees on Trolls Night.
During the Group C finals on Soundtrack to My Life Night, Donut sang a passionate version of 'Georgia on My Mind' by Ray Charles. He went to the Battle Royale with Keyshia Cole's Candelabra, during which they both sang beautiful versions of 'Wanted' by Hunter Hayes. Donut made it through to The Masked Singer season 10 finale. During the Holiday Sing-A-Long, he treated the audience to a delightful version of 'Frosty the Snowman' by Gene Autry.
Not only does Donut have a magnificent voice, but he makes an heartfelt connection every time he sings. He bares his soul through his performances, allowing the audience to get to know him more and more with every song. Because of this, Donut has made a very strong impression on the panelists, who've commended him for being so open and relatable. Donut has a very high chance of winning The Masked Singer season 10 because of all that he has given to viewers throughout the competition with his talent and his story.
Cow: Group A Champion
The Masked Singer season 10 contestant Cow immediately stole the show with his sassy personality and soaring vocals. His exceptional first performance of 'Bones' by Imagine Dragons blew the roof off The Masked Singer studio, and established him as a frontrunner in the competition. He followed that performance with a spirited rendition of Bruno Mars' 'Treasure' on NFL Night and an impressive version of Justin Timberlake's 'Cry Me a River' on 2000s Night.
During the Group A finals on Disco Night, Cow once again proved his singing chops with his catchy version of Anita Ward's 'Ring My Bell.' He advanced to the Battle Royale with Gazelle, during which they both sang 'I Will Survive' by Gloria Gaynor. Cow easily made it into the Group A finals, while Gazelle was saved by Ken with the Ding Dong Keep It On Bell. Cow sang also sang a jubilant version of 'What Christmas Means to Me' by Stevie Wonder during the Holiday Sing-A-Long.
Throughout The Masked Singer season 10, Cow has been a force to be reckoned with. He was never in a Smackdown throughout the early rounds. Cow is fearless and fun, showcasing his vocal range, while entertaining the audience with his dancing. He lights up the stage with his vivacious personality every time he performs. Cow has the potential to win the whole competition, and take home the Golden Mask Trophy.
