Clues for California Roll

California Roll mask first appeared on New York Night episode. Back then, a bunch of clues were revealed for this masked singer. Dressed as sushi, this masked singer had a group of five members in its tea. The members revealed they have appeared on ‘Broadway.’ The clue package had a ‘group project’ book in it, a caricature of a tiger, and a ‘5 Billion and growing’ hint. And, the other thing revealed for this group was they are “married.” The other clue revealed for this group was that they “DJ-ed all night long” before heading to Hollywood and have worked with Dolly Parton and Snoop Dogg.

Further, in the semifinal round, more significant clues were revealed for the California Roll mask. One of the singers in the clue package voiceover was seen saying, “I think I speak for all of us that it’s really exciting to be here in the semi-finals. Because we love a little friendly competition, and it’s really nice to flex that creative muscle right now. It’s definitely a full-circle moment..” He added, “While we were rehearsing and filming, I felt like we were having flashbacks to the first time we performed together. I’m even having some of the same anxiety as before.” The singer remembered having the same nervousness when he was backstage for dinging ‘Uptown Girl.’ Another clue revealed was that the group once performed at the White House and bagged a “standing O.”
