Sisqó was unmasked from his Lizard costume on Wednesday’s Shower Anthems Night themed episode of The Masked Singer on Fox after receiving the lowest score.
Before he was eliminated and unmasked, the panelists gave their final guesses of his true identity.
Jenny McCarthy, 51, thought Lizard was Ray J. because she saw a Snoop Dogg clue earlier. Ken Jeong, 54, insisted that he was Michael Bivins. Rita Ora, 33, and Robin Thicke, 47, were both certain that Lizard was in fact Sisqó.
‘You have rocked stages all over the world, why in the world did you do The Masked Singer?’ asked show host Nick Cannon, 43.
‘My family loves the show and every time we saw a season, everybody would always say, ”Hey, this got to be Sisqó”,’ he said. ‘So, when I got an opportunity to do it, I seized it and it’s really been fun.’

Sisqó, 45, then sang his hit The Thong Song in his Lizard outfit and even did a cartwheel in the costume.
Before his performance, as the Lizard he shared clues to his identity that included the fact that he got straight A’s in school but also that he messed up so much that he saw the inside of a jail cell more than once. His clues included a photo of Justin Timberlake and a dragon outfit. He said that he later cleaned up his act.
As the Lizard, he sang the Evanescence song Bring Me To Life while he wore a baseball cap backward and a jumpsuit that read ‘lizard.’ The crowd sang and danced along.
‘My mind was blown,’ Rita said. ‘I did not expect you to come out with that kind of song. But you still gave it your flow. It was amazing!’
Loofahs fell from the stage and Nick grabbed one and it said ‘Rita’ as an additional clue.
‘Rita, I’m honored to say we both have won the same out of this world award,’ Lizard said.
‘Out of this world takes me to Moonman, VMAs,’ said British singer Rita. ‘One of the reasons why I came all this way was to honestly meet incredible talent. So if I think this is who I think it is, it’s really kind of made my trip worthwhile.’
‘This is Sisqó,’ Rita said.

Lizard had the lowest score of the Group C contestants and was eliminated
The season 11 episode opened with the three group C finalists – Clock, Lizard and Poodle Moth – taking the stage together to sing Becky G’s hit Shower to kick off the shower themed show. Each of the contestants performed a song they sang in the shower.
Clock, with a clock face and body covered with flowers, was the first contestant to hit the stage. She shared clues to her identity that included a sweetheart and a gold record. She sang Aretha Franklin’s hit song Respect. The panelists all got up and danced along.
‘This was your best performance so far!’ Ken said.
The Men in Black came out in a bathtub to give an additional clue. It was a rubber ducky with Nick’s name on it.
‘Nicholas, this isn’t the first time you’ve hosted me,’ Clock said.
‘Cleary we know each other,’ said Nick, wearing a red suit with no shirt underneath.
‘He knows everybody, though,’ Jenny said.
‘That does not narrow it down at all,’ Rita said.
‘My family loves the show and every time we saw a season, everybody would always say, ”Hey, this got to be Sisqó”,’ he said. ‘So, when I got an opportunity to do it, I seized it and it’s really been fun’

Jenny thought the Clock might be Debbie Allen. Rita guessed it might be Denise Williams. Ken insisted she was Diana Ross.
Poodle Moth, a giant furry bug, said that music was always her therapy. Her clues included the number 3, and she said that growing up was hard. She said she now tries to lock the door on negativity.
Poodle Moth took the stage and sang The House That Built Me by Miranda Lambert accompanied by a guitarist.
‘So touching,’ Robin said.
‘It was adorable and so moving,’ Rita said.
Poodle Moth’s clue was soap on a rope that said ‘Robin.’
‘Well, Robin, working with your dad, I’m going to cry, is part of one of the biggest moments of my career in my life,’ Poodle Moth said.
‘That’s beautiful,’ Robin said.
Rita said she thought maybe that she was an actress like Sharon Stone.

‘Sharon Stone was very good friends with my dad,’ Robin said. ‘She came to my dad’s wedding. She was the honorary best woman.’
Ken thought maybe it was Brooke Shields.
‘My dad used to brag ”you know I went on a date with Brooke Shields”,’ Robin said.
Robin thought Poodle Moth was Shania Twain who he said stayed at his father’s house, because she was Canadian, when she was first trying to get a record deal.
‘That would be incredible,’ Ken said.
Poodle Moth battled against Clock in the Battle Royale with them both singing Ain’t No Mountain High Enough by Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell.
‘You guys came out swinging,’ Rita said.
‘That was really impressive,’ Robin said.
The Clock was declared the winner and crowned the Group C champion. Poodle Moth looked sad, Jenny said.
Robin thought she was Shania Twain. Jenny guessed she was Mandy Moore. Ken insisted she was Brooke Shields but Rita thought she might be Sharon Stone.
The crowd chanted ‘Ring the Bell, Ring the Bell.’
Rita got up and hit the Ding Dong Keep It On bell saving Poodle Moth.
