Group B consists of Sloth, Ice Cube, Zebra, Cotton Candy, and Moth. The Sloth kicks things off with his clues. He’s “worked hard” to get where he is and suffered a “bad accident” when he was a kid. The Sloth notes that he was “made fun of” as a kid and thought of as just a “Mickey Mouse operation.”
One notable hint is that his toothpaste reads: “GLEE.” He dances to “What I Like About You” by The Romantics. His one-word clue is Broadway. The guesses: Matthew Morrison, Kevin Federline, and Jason Derulo.
The Ice Cube is up next. He’s “pretty successful now” but didn’t have the best upbringing. “Even though we had money, I was home alone and isolated,” he says. His mom was at the White House, while his dad “spent real time behind bars.” The Ice Cube says, “TV was my only friend.” He dances it out to “Bad Romance” by Postmodern Jukebox. His one-word clue: 90s icon. The guesses: Bill Nye, Bill Maher, and Anderson Cooper.
The Zebra admits that he has “fallen out of the limelight” and “grew up in a rough neighborhood.” He reveals The Masked Dancer is a “big part” of his “second act.” He also wears an Olympic medal at one point in his clue package. He rocks out to “Magalenha” by Sergio Mendes. His one-word clue: comeback. The guesses: Ricky Martin, Kevin Richardson, and Pitbull.
Cotton Candy reveals right away that she’s a “perfectionist.” When she was growing up, she was a “whiz kid” and had to “move in with a new family” at one point. One major aspect of her clue package is a plate of cupcakes with big lips on them. During rehearsal, Cotton Candy actually FALLS from her aerial circle. She recovers and dances to “Glitter in the Air” by Pink. Her one-word clue: primetime. The guesses: Pink, Julianne Hough, and Jenna Dewan.
The final performance of the night is Moth. She was initially “out of the view of the public,” but the next thing she knew she was “making headlines with the president.” Moth reveals she suffered a “traumatic experience” that changed her life forever. She dances to “Boot Scootin’ Boogie” by Brooks & Dunn. Her one-word clue: inspired. The guesses: Megyn Kelly, Monica Lewinsky, and Marla Maples.
The masked dancer going home this week is the Ice Cube. The final guesses are Al Gore, Bill Nye, Bill Maher, and Tim Gunn. Ice Cube is… BILL NYE THE SCIENCE GUY!
