The event kicked off with a recap of all the past contestants and we got to see never before seen footage of all the masked celebrities. The last hour we got to see the final performances of the Fox, Flamingo, and Rottweiler - the finalists.
After the votes were in, coming in third this season was the Flamingo. Unmasked it was none other than Adrienne Bailon. In second place was the Rottweiler who was none other than Chris Daughtry. Emerging above the others with the highest votes in this episode, the Fox was crowned the winner.
The judges' final predictions for the Fox were, Jamie Foxx and Wayne Brady. Unmasked, the Fox was none other than Wayne Brady. After he was unmasked, the Wayne shared, "This has been the coolest, most amazing, most touching, most challenging, weirdest, and this is the weirdest — and I host ‘Let’s Make a Deal.’ But, God, I mean, really I’m gonna take this with me forever. This show is amazing because of the mask you lead talent-first. So there’s no one to say, ‘Wayne Brady doing our– Shut up, that’s the funny guy.'”
