Other clues this season have included butterflies, the letter Z, “lifetime achievements,” TikTok, Instagram, a “Second Annual Mother-Daughter Dance,” the acronym “ALDC,” and the words “frozen” and “princess. We're only two weeks into the first season of Masked Dancer, but the judges already seem to have their eye on the Zebra as a potential frontrunner.

She has competed her whole life, but her “best friend has taken home more trophies.” She’s a huge fan of K-pop, High School Musical, iced coffee, and a peanut butter-and-jelly sandwiches. The clues: She’s the youngest left on the show, but she’s used to that. Elizabeth Smart wasnt interested at first in appearing on Foxs 'The Masked Dancer.' But after her grandmother passed away, Smart said she had an epiphany. (Side note: Tulips are Dutch, so might I suggest a clog-dance for the finale next week?) It was a risky choice that really only the Tulip could pull off judge Ken Jeong called her the “most technically proficient” in the competition, while Arnett praised her “natural ability.” I just wish that this routine had been set to a Weird Al medley, since the Tulip showcased some comedy chops tonight as well. This blossom’s perky polka (yes, polka) once again showcased her versatility and ability to pick up any sort of choreography. The clues: She “started on this path at age 6,” but constant traveling once caused her relationships to “flame out.” Verbal clues included the words “super-girl,” “cover-girl,” and “boss,” and she has some connection to this week’s guest judge, Blades of Glory star Will Arnett, who once “showed her love on The Masked Singer.” Past clue packages have mentioned lips, ice, gold, sports, and “prayer.” (OK, it wasn’t as dazzling as the Weeknd’s performance at Super Bowl LV or last year’s J.Lo/Shakira spectacle, but it certainly was more entertaining than the recent half-assed halftimes by Justin Timberlake and Maroon 5.) The candy-girl served high-kicks, yard-stomps, standing somersaults, and drop-split. This jock-jam cheer dance, to a medley of Toni Basil’s pom-pom-pushing “Mickey” and 2 Unlimited's stadium staple “Get Ready,” was like a mini-Super Bowl halftime show. Will she have to settle for silver or bronze on The Masked Dancer, or can she beat the Tulip and Sloth? Let’s guess and assess. Boxing legend Oscar De La Hoya was unmasked as the Zebra in the Masked Dancer semi finals Wednesday night’s Masked Dancer semifinals was an absolute knockout with the reveal of boxing legend and Golden Boy Oscar De La Hoya.

While De La Hoya has been TKO'd out of the competition, one of the other three remaining finalists, the Cotton Candy, is most likely also a famous Olympian gold-medalist.
