In an unforgettable season finale, “The Masked Singer” unveiled its latest champion, marking a historic milestone in the show’s journey.
Season 12 of “The Masked Singer” came to a dramatic close with the final showdown between Wasp and Buffalos. The competition was fierce, with both acts delivering stunning performances that captivated audiences. As Wasp took the stage, their renditions of Bruno Mars’ “When I Was Your Man” and Whitney Houston’s “I’m Your Baby Tonight” filled the room with emotion. The artist behind Wasp gave a moving message to his younger self, saying, “Your wings are like your intuition, trust them. Trust your intuition and believe in yourself.”
Meanwhile, Buffalos showcased their versatility with a performance of Gotye’s “Somebody That I Used to Know” and Sam Smith’s heartbreaking “Too Good at Goodbyes.” The boy band, unidentified at the time, was equally moved by the experience. One member tearfully expressed, “It was so freeing. I’m crying right now. I don’t even know why. This has made me feel that, with these guys, we can do anything.”
Hints about their identities were sprinkled throughout their appearances, touching on their storied careers. One Buffalo reflected on overcoming significant challenges, stating, “We had to fight our way out of the hood. We had to overcome the passing of one of the most important people in our lives. And we’ve even had to change our entire sound when we lost a member.” Another shared, “This has been for our fans, our kids, for everyone who stuck with us. We’re those somebodies you used to know, still know and will always know.”
Ultimately, it was Buffalos’ harmonious performances that earned them the crown, sending Wasp — unmasked as Mario — to a commendable second place. The big reveal of Buffalos’ true identity sent fans into a frenzy: they were none other than Boyz II Men, the legendary ‘90s R&B group. Members Shawn Stockman, Nathan Morris, and Wanyá Morris made history, becoming the first group to win the competition.
Throughout the season, numerous celebrities were unmasked, adding to the excitement. Leaf Sheep was none other than NFL legend John Elway. Yvette Nicole Brown was revealed as Showbird, while Marsai Martin took off the Woodpecker mask. Other notable reveals included Paula Cole as Ship, Andy Richter as Dust Bunny, and Laverne Cox behind the Chess Piece disguise. Natalie Imbruglia surprised viewers as Bluebell, while Bethany Hamilton glided through as Macaron. Former child star Drake Bell and Jana Kramer also featured prominently in this star-studded season.
Boyz II Men’s win on “The Masked Singer” is a testament to their enduring appeal and exceptional talent. Season 12 will be remembered for its emotional performances and surprising reveals, proving once again why this show continues to captivate audiences.
