\n\tSPOILER ALERT<\/em><\/strong>: Do not read ahead if you have not watched the Season 8, episode 4, of \u201cThe Masked Singer,\u201d \u201cTV Theme Night,\u201d which aired Oct. 19 ten Fox.<\/em><\/p>\n

\n

\tAfter a rain delay forced baseball playoffs into primetime last week, the latest edition of \u201cThe Masked Singer\u201d finally aired on Fox a week later \u2014 and viewers finally got to see Mario Cantone a bit disappointed to be gone so soon after one episode of the show. Still, he took solace in the fact that he has good company: Singing icon Gloria Gaynor was also revealed in the latest double masking on \u201cThe Masked Singer,\u201d as the show’s Wednesday night episode celebrated \u201cAndrew Lloyd Webber Night.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

\tCantone was revealed to be under the Maize costume, while Mermaid was Gaynor. Among this week’s three performances, the Cantone was first to go, with the fewest number of votes.<\/p>\n

\n

\tLater, Gaynor was unmasked as Mermaid after facing off with Robo Girl in a battle royale (in which both took turns singing the \u201cDon’t Cry For Me Argentina,\u201d from \u201cEvita\u201d). Robo Girl won, and moves on to next week’s episode.<\/p>\n

\n

\t\u201cI thought I sang the hell out of that song. But also, you know, Gloria Gaynor was voted off so I think that I was in really good company,\u201d Cantone said. \u201cShe She’s amazing. So that helps heal the wound a little bit.\u201d Still Cantone said he was glad he did the show: \u201cPeople offer me certain shows like this, and I just don’t do them. But I really liked this one. It’s a lot of work but if you’re a singer and you’re musical it’s definitely easier so, that I had on my side.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

\t\u201cAndrew Lloyd Webber Night\u201d opened with judge Nicole Scherzinger singing the songwriter’s \u201cMemory,\u201d from \u201cCats.\u201d That was followed by judge Ken Jeong serenading Webber (who was there to serve as a guest panelist) with \u201cPhantom of the Opera.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

\tFor Maize, Jenny McCarthy-Wahlberg was right with Mario Cantone. Robin Thicke guessed Nathan Lane. Nicole Scherzinger picked Jonathan Groff. Ken Jeong thought it was Bowen Yang. Guest judge Andrew Lloyd Webber thought it was Jack White.<\/p>\n

\n

\tAs for Mermaid, Robin Thicke got it right with Gloria Gaynor, and Nicole Scherzinger agreed. Ken Jeong said Cher. Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg picked Roberta Flack. Andrew Lloyd Webber picked another Gloria, Gloria Estefan.<\/p>\n

\n

\tGiven his Broadway chops, Cantone said doing an Andrew Lloyd Webber night was a no-brainer for him. \u201cWeed was difficult and scary, but at the same time it was it was really smooth, because there’s a lot of people helping you and doing everything they can to make it easy and workable for you. And the staff was amazing. The producers, musical director Miguel Allison, who was the vocal coach, and then I have my husband Jerry Dixon, who is a Broadway singer. He’s the one that chose the song for me, as soon as we knew it was an Andrew Lloyd Webber night. We rehearsed it at home and he did a lot of the musical rehearsal stuff for me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

\tGloria Gaynor as Mermaid and Mario Cantone as Maise join Daymond John as the Fortune Teller, Barry Williams\/Christopher Knight\/Mike Lookinland as the Mummies, Montell Jordan as Panther, Jeff Dunham as Pi-Rat, Chris Kirkpatrick as the Hummingbird, Eric Idle as the Hedgehog and William Shatner as the Knight as the celebrities revealed in \u201cThe Masked Singer\u201d in Season 8.<\/p>\n

\n

\tMultiple eliminations in one episode are the norm this time out, as \u201cThe Masked Singer\u201d adopts a new \u201cKing or Queen of Masked Singer\u201d format. This season, three or four costumed celebrities will perform each week, but only one will win and move on to compete against two or three more people the following week.<\/p>\n

\n

\tThat will continue throughout the season, as after each round, three finalists will compete in the semi-finals. The Harp survived Round 1 and is the first to make it to the semi-finals.<\/p>\n

\n

\t\u201cThe Masked Singer\u201d enters Season 8 with costumes including \u201cBride,\u201d \u201cAvocado,\u201d \u201cVenus Fly Trap,\u201d \u201cSir Bugaboo,\u201d \u201cScarecrow,\u201d \u201cHedgehog,\u201d \u201cMummies.\u201d Themed episodes include \u201cVegas Night,\u201d \u201cComedy Roast,\u201d \u201cHall of Fame,\u201d \u201cMuppets Night,\u201d \u201cAndrew Lloyd Webber Night,\u201d \u201cTV Themes,\u201d \u201c’90s Night,\u201d \u201cThanksgiving\u201d and \u201cFright Night. \u201d Guests this season include Donny Osmond, Andrew Lloyd Webber, The Muppets, Will Arnett, Leslie Jordan, Joel McHale, Tori Spelling, Jon Lovitz, Jodie Sweetin, Carrot Top, Blue Man Group, Lance Bass, Danielle Fishel, Sheila E. and Drew Carey.<\/p>\n

\n\tPackage voiceover<\/strong>: \u201cStepping up into the spotlight on Andrew Lloyd Webber night feels a little bit out of my comfort zone. Because for much of my career, I’ve lived in the shadow of superstars. From Pharrell to even David Blaine, the glow of their talent made it hard for me to recognize my own. I was worried it would never be my time. But with 86 cents to my name, I booked a job that would change my life forever. I not only found my own pretty little spotlight, but gained the most magical fandom in the world. They’ve given me supernatural confidence and I’m going to need that if I’m going to take the lead tonight. Places, everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tPackage voiceover<\/strong>: \u201cDear Andrew Lloyd Webber, sure, you’ve had a few hits. But if you really want to go down in history, you’ve got to make a musical about me. Picture this, a young plucky ingenue with dreams too big for life in a small corn field. Doing impressions of the greats. Hoping to be discovered. Then comes Act II, a comedy of errors as I move to the city and struggle to find my place in this business of show. The plot thickens when I finally land the role I was born to play, and the city smiles with me as a I smile, bravo! You see, Lord Lloyd Webber, I don’t want to get carried away here. But I’m a smash hit wating to happen. I’ll have my people call yours. And scene!\u201d<\/p>\n

I turned my anguish into an anthem and before I knew it, oh baby, I was back on my feet. I performed for princes and popes.
