The Season 11 semi-finals took place on “The Masked Singer” Wednesday, May 15. After singing their hearts out for panelists Robin Thicke, Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg, Ken Jeong and Rita Ora, Goldfish, Gumball and Poodle Moth competed in one final Battle Royale. The Goldfish and Gumball survived, forcing Clock to reveal herself as Grammy-winning diva Thelma Houston. Watch her unmasking above.
“Thank you guys so much, you made me feel so good with all the wonderful things you were saying,” she told the panelists and host Nick Cannon during her unmasked interview. “I had a ball.” When asked if she really stayed home and cleaned her kitchen the night she won a Grammy Award she responded, “Yes, it’s absolutely true. I was singing to the mop.” Her final words were, “I had a wonderful time and I do thank my family for being my support system for all these years. I’m amazed at the reception that I’ve gotten for all these weeks. It’s been wonderful.”

Prior to her performance of “Dancing in the Streets” by Martha and the Vandellas, Poodle revealed in her clue package, “Standing here in the semi-finals has been a total statement for me because, well, I’m not as young as I used to be. But becoming the Clock has been so fun, it’s reminded me after all these years, mama’s still got it. But it’s also been a challenge. When I was younger, I had stage fright so bad, my knees would knock together under my gospel robe. I had to learn how to connect with the audience through eye contact and a smile. And now, this mask takes all that away! So, I’ve had to connect in other ways. This dress was not made for moving, but that doesn’t stop me. See, I wanted to ‘Masked Singer’ to introduce myself to a whole new generation. To make it this far is a real treat. So now, I’m going to be singing, dancing and twerking my way into the finale.”
Clock was the 14th celebrity act unmasked this season following Kevin Hart as Book, Savannah Chrisley as Afghan Hound, Joe Bastianich as Spaghetti & Meatballs, Billy Bush as Sir Lion, Sisqo as Lizard, Colton Underwood as Lovebird, DeMarcus Ware as Koala, Charlie Wilson as Ugly Sweater, Kate Flannery as Starfish, Jenifer Lewis as Miss Cleocatra, Corey Feldman as Seal and Ruben Studdard & Clay Aiken as Beets, and Chrissy Metz as Poodle Moth.
