The Masked Singer: Kelly Osbourne Revealed to be the Ladybug

The Masked Singer revealed another celebrity performer on Wednesday, bringing the contestant pool down to half of what it originally started with. But the show did add another animal participant!

Triumph the Insult Comic Dog joined judges Ken Jeong, Jenny McCarthy, Nicole Scherzinger and Robin Thicke to make his best guesses about who might be under the Ladybug, Fox, Flower, Tree and Rottweiler costumes.

Host Nick Cannon prompted the singers for an additional physical clue after each of their performances, when the Rottweiler presented a portrait they made for Triumph. McCarthy called Rottweiler’s performance of “Castle on the Hill” by Ed Sheeran “the best performance of the entire show or the whole season so far.”

At the end of the evening, the studio audience voted on their least favorite performance of the night, which ended up being the Ladybug.

As Cannon helped the Ladybug remove their mask, the judges and audience alike were shocked to see Kelly Osbourne underneath.

“I heard the first word come out of my mouth. I was like, ‘They’re going to know it’s me,’ ” the actress and TV personality, 35, said after being unmasked. “And then this accent just came out and I had to do it the whole time and every single time inside this mask I’ve been dying laughing every time I have to speak.”

Osbourne’s reveal follows last week’s double unmasking of the Penguin, who turned out to be TV host and comedian Sherri Shepherd, and the Black Widow, who was Disney Chanel star Raven Symoné.
