Clues for Rock Lobster

FOX dropped the clues for Rock Lobster as soon as he entered the stage. As soon as the clue clip played on the screen, we saw the masked singer standing in front of a tall building saying, "Ohh hello, welcome to the masked singer's hottest club lobster, and go go." He further gave us a hint of his identity by explaining his career. Rock Lobster revealed that he has been in movies and TV shows. He claimed to have been in the industry "since you were a kid." Indeed, he must be an old man. The masked singer further added, "10 million watched me dance for 15 seconds." 

Well, things were not always good for this masked singer. He claimed to be a "neurotic mess" in the school. Because of the same, this celebrity singer had to change schools 3 times. He went out of college without a diploma. Well, seeing so many downs made this singer feel that he will not be able to excel in life. Well, the opposite happened. He claimed, "Made a career out of uncomfortableness." 

After Rock Loster entertained us with his soulful voice, we got a celebrity package clue dropped to help get the audience, as well as panelists, get a closer look at his personality. The clue was brought by Ru Paul's drag race icon Shangela. The clue had a "gavel." Rock Loster claimed, "I'm a great judge of character," hinting that he might also be a judge on some show.

Connecting the clues, Ken guessed the celebrity singer to be Howie Mandel. The funny personality clue hinted at him being a comedian. Howie is a famed comedian, TV personality, actor, as well as producer. He started his acting career back in his 20s. Additionally, he has been a judge on NBC's 'America's Got Talent' since 2010 and Citytv's 'Canada's Got Talent' since 2022. 

With Rock Lobster being eliminated in the middle of the show, Night Owl and Medusa got the chance to move ahead for the Battle Royale round. Further, Night Owl got eliminated and was unmasked as Debbie Gibson and Medusa was declared the winner of the episode.
