03:03But right now
03:05We're kicking things off with
03:07Showbird
03:09How does her life reflect
03:11The struggles seen in footloose
03:13Well here's your answer
03:15I always knew
03:19If I ever got a chance
03:20In front of the lights
03:21I'd do something good with it
03:23So when I got that chance
03:25Work became my entire life
03:27I was married to it
03:29Look at those diamonds
03:31Maybe she knows jewel
03:32But I couldn't help but feel like
03:34Maybe something was missing
03:36Real love
03:37The kind like Ren and Ariel
03:39Found in footloose
03:40Then recently
03:42I reconnected with an old friend bird
03:44Who unexpectedly became my love bird
03:47Not you Colton
03:49He's encouraged me to rekindle my first flame
03:54One I gave up for two decades
03:56Singing
03:57Purple cupcake
03:58Maybe someone from the color purple
04:00Oh
04:01But his love helped me find that carefree confidence again
04:05Which led me here
04:06So tonight let's hear it for my baby

06:36I mean show bird you stopped the show it was a show stopper for all I know so that was fantastic well done
06:49What an opening that was amazing
06:53Amazing we could definitely use a clue to figure out who this is all right more clues
06:58We need more clues delivered to the stage in an iconic way from
07:03Everyone's favorite dance movie Footloose. Let's see what show birds is
07:09Men in black
07:23Music
07:33All right
07:35Show bird
07:37What can you tell us about this clue now?
07:40That's more my mind because back in 94. I was part of a hip-hop
07:49What's hip-hop empire? Oh wow, well, thank you men in black or man in black. Oh
07:57My god
07:59You know what you picking up awesome. Well, I've been leaning towards somebody else because this person all has
08:05Also has a connection with my friend of me Joel McHale, and I didn't think it's someone I work with on community
08:10This could be Yvette Nicole Brown
08:13Because
08:14Because the music box
08:16Yes
08:17Says she's part of this hip-hop empire
08:21She got signed to Motown Records by Michael Bivens as part of the East Coast family
08:27Wow
08:27She recently got engaged. They're a perfect match. Oh, I think show birds right Yvette Nicole
08:35Sounds right
08:37Such a great guest from Ken Jeong
08:42But if I go by clues, I do like my connection which is the purple cupcake. Oh, yeah the color purple
08:50Oh, you guys just saw her say on stage the word Empire. Yeah
08:55Hello
08:56Taraji P. Henson
08:58That's true
08:59Pretty good
09:01Yeah, I agree. I agree with Jenny, you know Taraji
09:04I did say that last week and then I'm seeing the purple cupcake and I'm like, okay, cool
09:08You know, I had the privilege of working with Prince

11:47Now, last week the ship sailed into the competition
11:51But what was the ship like in high school?
11:55Let's go below deck and find out
11:57It's full of clues
12:01Like the lyrics of Footloose say
12:03Everybody kick off your Sunday shoes
12:05Easy, right?
12:07Well, not when you're a ship in a boot
12:09Not when you're a ship in a boot
12:11In high school, I was a star cheerleader
12:14Class president
12:15And was even voted prom queen
12:17Oh!
12:18Overachiever
12:19So when I injured my foot
12:21And the doctor said I had to sit on the sidelines for a whole year
12:25My heart sank
12:27My frustration led me to the family's piano
12:31Where I'd sit and play for hours on end
12:33Play the piano
12:35To the real musician
12:36Oh, Sarah McLaughlin
12:37Oh!
12:38It was my therapy
12:39I channeled my sorrow
12:41My joy
12:42My expression
12:43Music became my paradise
12:46And it's been a healing source since
12:50Now the good news is
12:52The only boots I'm wearing these days are leather
12:54And made for dancing
12:56And tonight I feel like I'm knocking on Heaven's door
12:59I like the piano
13:02She's obviously a musician
13:03Yes
13:04It's gonna be good
13:05Get ready guys
13:06I'm thinking like Amy Grant
13:07I love that guess
13:08Yeah, Amy Grant
13:09That kommer
13:17I thought that dreams belong to other men
13:21Cause each time I got close
13:26They fall apart again
13:29I mean, her voice is amazing
13:32I feared my heart would be in secrecy
13:36I faced the nights alone
13:41Oh, how could I have known
13:45That all my life I only needed you
13:50Oh, almost paradise
13:55We're knocking on heaven's door
13:59Wow, wow, right?
14:00Almost paradise
14:02How could we ask for more
14:07I swear that I can see forever
14:11In your eyes
14:15Paradise
14:17And in your arms self-pacience
14:26Not so far away
14:30It's getting closer
14:33Closer and down
14:37Almost paradise
14:47How could we ask for more
14:51I swear that I could see forever
14:56In your eyes
15:00Come down
15:09She is the front-runner, I think, of this competition
15:15Yeah!
15:16Yeah!
15:17Got everybody on their feet
15:28Catch me, Ken, before I go overboard
15:31Oh, my God
15:32Oh, my goodness
15:33We all went overboard for the ship tonight
15:36Yeah
15:37Outstanding
15:38Oh, thank you
15:40What is the ship's extra clue
15:44In honor of the star of Footloose
15:46Let's play Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon
15:49Oh, that's fun
15:51Men in black
15:52Bring out our love boat's clue
15:55I love this game
15:58She must know him
15:59Yeah
16:00Oh, my God
16:01Beaumont High School
16:03The high school from Footloose
16:04Yep
16:04Wait, wait, wait
16:07Whoopi Goldberg
16:08And Melissa Etheridge
16:09And Whoopi Goldberg
16:11What the heck?
16:12Wow
16:12What does that mean?
16:14All right
16:14Well, ship
16:15What can you tell us about this clue here in the locker?
16:19Well, Nick
16:20I'm three degrees away from Kevin Bacon
16:24I'm connected to Melissa Etheridge
16:29Who is connected to Whoopi Goldberg
16:32Who starred in Destination Anywhere
16:36With Kevin Bacon
16:38Okay
16:39All right
16:40Okay
16:41That's some great clues right there
16:42Men in black
16:43Thank you so much for that
16:44You know, ship
16:47You're like the hardest one for me
16:49Your vocals are so outstanding
16:50That it throws all of the clues out of the window for me
16:53Because I'm really listening to your vocals
16:54And your tone
16:55And seeing kind of like
16:57How I recognize
16:58I've been closing my eyes
16:58I'm like, I know it
16:59I know it
16:59But I just don't know it
17:01So I was thinking
17:01You know, that incredible texture
17:03That your voice has
17:04It reminds me of Kate Bush
17:05But then I was thinking
17:07The Raven makes me think of a cover
17:09One of my favorite covers of Blackbird
17:11Sung by Sarah McLachlan
17:12So I was like
17:13Could it be Sarah McLachlan?
17:15But there would be sad puppies in the clue package
17:17Yeah
17:17I like that guest though
17:20Well, I actually love
17:21That was what I said originally
17:22When I'm thinking of the vocals
17:24And I'm thinking of these connections
17:25I think of names like Amy Grant
17:27Yes
17:27And the cowboy boots
17:29Wasn't she wearing cowboy boots
17:30In her famous Baby Baby video?
17:32I believe so
17:33Yes
17:33So I'm remembering that
17:34But I'm sorry
17:35The piano
17:36Yeah
17:37Changes everything
17:38I agree with you
17:39That's Sarah McLachlan
17:40Yeah
17:40Wow
17:41Wow
17:41Because of the piano
17:44That's what she's known for
17:45Yeah
17:46I'm stumped right now
17:47I'm just gonna have to go with
17:49Use my brain right now
17:50Is it under this hat?
17:51You know, it's somewhere there
17:52But I think
17:53Just based off the clues
17:54That bird
17:55It wasn't a raven
17:57It was a crow
17:58Okay
17:58A crow is a bird
18:00As in Cheryl Crow
18:01She is good friends with
18:03Melissa Etheridge
18:05If it's Cheryl Crow
18:06It might as well be Russell Crow
18:07You know what?
18:08How dare you
18:11I'm gonna shut up now
18:13Bye
18:13Whoever you are
18:15You have the most beautiful voice
18:17I believe
18:18On Masked Singer
18:19Season 2
18:20Thank you
18:21Wow
18:24Truly an outstanding job
18:26Y'all keep it going for the ship
18:27And as the kids say
18:28We all ship
18:30The ship
18:31Men in black
18:33Come help the ship out
18:34Alright
18:35Guys I've got a really serious question
18:38How many degrees away
18:40Are you guys from Kevin Bacon?
18:41Well I mean I've met him
18:42Before and hung out
18:43Really?
18:44I've met him in In-N-Out
18:45You met him?
18:46In-N-Out
18:47You win
18:47What does it mean if you've had
18:49A dream about Kevin Bacon?
18:51It doesn't count
18:51It means nothing
18:52That means absolutely nothing
18:53I want to know Nick
18:54Because Nick knows
18:55Everybody you guys
18:56How many degrees away
18:58From Kevin Bacon are you Nick?
18:59I was at the same
19:00In-N-Out that Robin was at
19:01Oh man you ain't right
19:03Who is that?
19:08Who is that?
19:10Whoa
19:10A daddy on a tractor
19:13Wow
19:14Welcome back to Footloose Night
19:16On The Masked Singer
19:17Wow
19:18Hey
19:18Hey
19:19Now let's get into our next competitor
19:22The Woodpecker
19:24Oh yeah
19:25What was her childhood like?
19:27It's full of clues
19:28Watch this
19:29Just like in Footloose
19:35I know a thing or two
19:36About fighting for what you believe in
19:38As a young chick
19:39While most kids were playing in tree houses
19:41I was planting roots in Hollywood
19:44But growing up in front of the world
19:47Was awkward
19:48Oh
19:49She's got to be a child star
19:50From wanting to wear heels
19:52To flirting with boys
19:54And God forbid
19:55Uttering a cuss word
19:56Everyone was all up in my business
19:59Treating me like I was their child
20:01It's one thing when your mom tells you what to do
20:03And another thing when everyone around you is chirping in
20:06A little briefcase
20:07Oh she's a business mogul
20:09But I always stayed headstrong
20:11Dancing through the growing pains at my own pace
20:14And in turn
20:16I got young birdies following in my footsteps
20:19To see me as their hero
20:20But my advice
20:21You can be your own hero too
20:23And tonight
20:24I'm singing a song
20:25That's always helped me celebrate
20:27Well
20:27Me
20:28And I hope it'll be a knockout
20:30Knock on wood
20:32Okay
20:34Knock on wood
20:35We're dealing with someone
20:37That started very young
20:38She is a hustler
20:40This one
20:41Where have all the good men gone
20:51And where are all the gods
20:54Where's the street wide Hercules
20:57To fight the rising gods
21:00I know this voice
21:01Isn't there a white night
21:04Upon a fiery steed
21:07Late at night
21:09When I talk and I turn
21:10And I dream of what I need
21:13I need a hero
21:15I'm holding out for a hero
21:17Till the end of the night
21:19He's gotta be strong
21:21And he's gotta be fast
21:23And he's gotta be fresh
21:24From the fight
21:26I need a hero
21:27I'm holding out for a hero
21:30Till the morning light
21:32He's gotta be sure
21:34And he's gotta be soon
21:36And he's gotta be larger than mine
21:38I mean this sounds like a real singer
21:39I mean this sounds like a real singer, right?
21:40You're doing great
21:41I'm wearing the mountains
21:41I'm wearing the heavens above
21:42I'm wearing the lightning spins the sea
21:45I can feel his approach
21:48Like a fire in my blood
21:50I need a hero
22:01I'm holding out for a hero
22:04Till the end of the night
22:05He's gotta be strong
22:07And he's gotta be fast
22:09And he's gotta be fresh
22:11From the fight
22:12I need a hero
22:13I'm holding out for a hero
22:16Till the morning light
22:18He's gotta be sure
22:20And he's gotta be soon
22:22And he's gotta be loved
22:23And alive
22:24I need a hero
22:26This is a hard one
22:41For Woodpecker

22:45Wow
22:48And she can move

22:52You have a voice
22:53That I feel like
22:54It's so incredibly powerful
22:56You're so talented
22:57That we should
22:58Know who you are

23:53We've had quite a few birds
23:54So I don't know
23:55Which bird she's referring to
23:56I mean Donnie Wahlberg
23:57Was a rooster
23:58Clued'll do love shoes
24:00It's like you can sing
24:02You can move
24:02You've got coordination
24:03You have presence
24:05You've got star quality
24:06Thank you
24:07What are you thinking Rita?
24:09You know I'm just gonna
24:10Throw a name in there
24:11Just based off the clues
24:12Because for me
24:12It's like you know
24:13The director thing
24:14The chair
24:15The briefcase
24:16Like there's so many
24:17Elements to you
24:17Which makes me think
24:19You're a hustler
24:19Like me
24:20Which I'm loving
24:21I know that's right
24:22And you know
24:24So I was thinking
24:25Is it like a marvel actor
24:26Like a hero
24:27This woman's got
24:28Her own production company
24:29And she's in Black Panther
24:31One of my favorite films
24:32Is it Leticia Wright?
24:34So I've got no clue though
24:36Like seriously
24:37You know
24:37I'm just going by clue
24:39This is a clue based guest
24:41For the first time ever
24:42I don't know who this is
24:43But I'll tell you
24:44I'm going to double down
24:45On last week's guest of mine
24:47Willow Smith
24:49That director's chair
24:52Willow Smith
24:53Also directs as well as
24:55Performs in her own music videos
24:57And speaking of bird clues
24:59Willow Smith
24:59Has performed with
25:01Masked singer's own
25:02Rubber ducky
25:02Anthony Anderson
25:04And perhaps the best
25:06And most precious
25:07Mother's Day special
25:08Of all time
25:09On VH1
25:10Called
25:10Dear Mama
25:11Oh wow
25:12I mean clue wise
25:13Clue wise
25:14You know you're making some sense
25:15But I think you're going down
25:16The wrong tree hole
25:17You know what
25:18Oh my god
25:18I'm so embarrassed right now
25:19All these puns
25:21I'm not that confident
25:22About my guests
25:23And I don't like that
25:24Because I like having
25:24Tons of confidence
25:25And sometimes overly confident
25:27Not as bad as him though
25:28So I feel like
25:30She's like a mogul
25:31In her own world
25:32Yeah
25:33Of actresses
25:34And directing
25:35It sounded to me
25:36Like the amazing
25:37Regina King
25:38Oh wow
25:38Regina
25:39Regina King's back
25:39Is a quadruple threat
25:41We love Regina
25:42Right
25:43That's the winner
25:43But I want to know
25:44Does Nick like it
25:46Because I think
25:46Nick
25:46What do you think daddy
25:47Nick I feel like
25:48You know who this is
25:48I know Regina well
25:49That is not no Regina
25:50I have a man
25:51Regina or Willow
25:52I mean it's
25:53I definitely feel like
25:54You're someone more
25:55In Willow's age group
25:56Yes I'm right daddy
25:58I love you daddy
25:59I love you daddy
26:00So much
26:01What is going on
26:02Let's just relax guys
26:04Jeez
26:05Let's relax
26:06But one thing we do know
26:08That was an amazing
26:09Performance from Will Secker
26:10You were
26:11Pectacular
26:12You keep on picking
26:13You get ahead on backstage
26:14Men in black
26:15Come help her out
26:16You know what to me
26:24Defines a really good season
26:25Is when I get lost
26:26In their performances
26:27And I forget that
26:28I'm supposed to be
26:28Playing the game
26:29Yes
26:29So I'll be like
26:30Oh my god I love this song
26:31And then I'm like
26:32Oh god I gotta try to
26:32That happens to me
26:34Every waking hour
26:35Of my life
26:35You know with you guys
26:42Matching coats and all
26:43I think we have to figure out
26:44Who the real Kevin Bacon is
26:46Don't you
26:46I think we need a little dance off
26:49Is what I think
26:50What
26:51Dance off
26:52What
26:53Yes
26:55He got it
26:59Look at that Robin
27:02Go Robin
27:04Go Robin
27:06Oh
27:08God damn it
27:11No way
27:18I can top that
27:19Nick do a little swivel
27:21I believe in you
27:22Daddy dance
27:23Alright here they go
27:24Yes
27:25No way
27:33Robin got it though
27:34Give it up
27:35What
27:35Robin did
27:35I think Robin did
27:39This is Footloose night
27:47And we still have
27:49Our final singers
27:51And it's
27:52The Buffalos
27:53How do they relate to
27:58The rebellious spirit
27:59Of Footloose
28:00Well
28:00Let's hear it from them
28:02You know how
28:06When someone tells you
28:07You can't do something
28:08You just want to do it more
28:10Well
28:10Just like those kids
28:11In Footloose
28:12Longing to dance
28:13We're each rebels
28:14In our own way
28:15We somehow found each other
28:16Along the trail
28:17They found each other
28:18So they're not brothers
28:19No
28:20Everyone told us
28:21We couldn't just do our thing
28:22But you know
28:23We enlisted
28:23We've succeeded
28:24By not giving a darn
28:25What people think
28:26Think we're corny
28:27Who cares
28:29We're rich
28:29Hey they're funny
28:32And if you think
28:33We take ourselves
28:33Too seriously
28:34Look at us
28:35We're out here

28:59I'm excited about this
29:01Here we go kids
29:01So long
29:12I've been looking too hard
29:16I've been waiting too long
29:18Sometimes I don't know
29:21I don't know what I'll find
29:23I don't know
29:25It's a matter of time
29:28Maybe I'm wrong
29:31Wow
29:32Won't you tell me
29:34If I'm coming on too strong
29:37This heart of mine
29:39Has been hurt before
29:41This time I wanna be sure
29:45I've been waiting
29:47For a girl like you
29:51To come into my life
29:54I've been sweating
29:55I've been waiting
29:57For a girl like you
30:01A love that will survive
30:05I've been waiting
30:06For someone new
30:10To make me feel alive
30:14Get to me
30:17For a girl like you
30:20To come into my life
30:24I've been waiting
30:33I've been waiting
30:33Waiting for you
30:37For a girl like you
30:40To come into my life
30:42To come into my life
30:43For a girl like you
30:44I've been waiting for you
30:45To come into my life
30:46Yeah
30:47Yeah
30:48Yeah
30:48Yeah
30:50Yeah
30:51Wow
30:52Wow
30:53Wow
30:55Look at that
30:57Look at that.
30:58It's getting hot in here.
31:00Know how to move.
31:02Oh, my goodness.
31:04Yeah.
31:05Buffalo.
31:06Buffalo.
31:07Buffalo.
31:09Buffalo.
31:09Buffalo.
31:11Yeah.
31:13Buffalo.
31:14Wow.
31:15Robin, what'd you think about that?
31:16The buffalo came out to let them know.
31:19Yeah.
31:20That was, you know what I really loved?
31:21I mean, great vocals.
31:22All three of you guys can sing.
31:24But what I really loved was you went in and you worked the crowd.
31:26We don't get a lot of that.
31:27We don't get a lot of that at all.
31:29Great performance.
31:30Way to take it into the crowd and create some goosebumps.
31:33They're stunned.
31:34I saw the girls.
31:35The girls started screaming.
31:36The buffaloes got the buffaloes going crazy.
31:38Yeah, they go.
31:39Everyone going crazy.
31:40Well, before the panel lets loose on their guesses,
31:44let's get another clue about the buffaloes.
31:47We definitely could use it.
31:48Men in Black, bring it out.
31:53I need all the clues I can get.
31:55Bring out the clues.
31:56Look at that.
31:56Look at that license plate.
31:58What's up?
31:58What's up?
31:59What does it say?
32:00Motown.
32:01Motown.
32:02Okay.
32:03Motown Records.
32:04Buffaloes, what can you tell us about this tractor clue here?
32:08Well, we're a little tired right now because we are busy using this tractor to mow lawns all around town.
32:18Oh, to mow lawns all around town.
32:20To mow lawns.
32:21Thank you, Men in Black.
32:22I'm just going to go with my gut.
32:24I'm not even going to think.
32:26Bell, Bib, DeVoe.
32:28That's all I'm saying.
32:30Very easy.
32:31Easy.
32:32Three words.
32:33The way they dance, the way they know how to work a crowd, the jar of poison, makes sense to me.
32:41Motown is a subsidiary of MCA Records that signed BBD, You Know Me, BBD.
32:48All right, never trust a big buffalo and a smile.
32:52Yeah.
32:53Yeah.
32:54There you go.
32:55I don't hate it.
32:56I don't hate it.
32:57But I was thinking of a little band called 112.
33:01112, yeah.
33:02Pitches and Cream, you know that hit?
33:04Yeah, 112.
33:05I love 112.
33:05They have some great records.
33:06I was tiptoeing around another band, boy band in particular, because I know them very well.
33:12But this boy band had a residency in Vegas, and we had some poker chips up there.
33:16Okay.
33:17I mean, could this be the amazing boys to men?
33:20I mean, amazing.
33:21No, it couldn't be.
33:23No?
33:23You're not feeling it?
33:24No.
33:25No.
33:25I mean, I love your guests if you're following the clues, but vocally, I didn't hear no Sean, no Juan, yay and am.
33:31What did you hear, Robin?
33:32I mean, I've been on the Jonas Brothers, but we heard in the clue package today that they found each other along the way.
33:40Yeah.
33:40So they're not brothers.
33:42Uh-huh.
33:42But another group of guys that was on Nickelodeon.
33:46Yeah.
33:47Was Big Time Rush.
33:49Oh.
33:50And we saw they had a sitcom.
33:52Yeah.
33:52We saw clues about, you know, film clues.
33:54That's right.
33:55What do you think, Nick?
33:56I think I know.
33:58Everybody up there is really close.
34:00I'll just say that.
34:00Okay.
34:01Now, let's make some noise for the Buffaloes.
34:07You guys, go charge backstage.
34:10We'll see you for the vote.
34:11Men in Black, coach the Buffalo out.
34:14We've been waiting for some Buffaloes like them, right?
34:18They got the mean two-step.
34:20Hey!
34:21Hey!
34:21Hey!
34:22Hey!
34:23I'm in love.
34:24I'm in love with Buffalo.
34:25Can I just say, can I be, I got wooed at the saloon.
34:28That was beautiful.
34:29Who is that?
34:39You'll never, never, never, ever, never, never, never, never, ever hide your heart.
34:46Don't ever, never, ever, ever, ever, no.
34:54If you don't give your heart wings, you'll never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never, no.
35:08Let's go!
35:11Like it Footloose.
35:14No dancing allowed here because we got a show to do, right?
35:18Yes!
35:20Three singers are advancing to the Group A finals
35:23and someone's headed home in the back of our Footloose Dancers' mid-sized sedan.
35:28Bring out our singers!
35:38Yes!
35:41Oh!
35:43Hey!
35:45Hey!
35:47Hey!
35:49All right.
35:51All night our singers have been Footloose and Fancy Free.
35:55But now we go from comedy and dance breaks to full-on drama
36:00because this is a competition and someone's gotta get unmasked.
36:05No!
36:06Audience and panel, time to choose your favorite of the night.
36:11Oh!
36:17I've never been more confused than right now.
36:20All right, time's up.
36:23It's the hardest part.
36:24The hardest part of the show.
36:26Oh man, this bit sucks.
36:28And the results are in.
36:31Oh no.
36:33The next singer of Group A to unmask is...
36:39Oh no.
36:41Ah!
36:43So hard. This is such a hard part.
36:45Uh oh. Buffalo.
36:48I actually have no idea who it would be.
36:50I have no idea who it would be.
36:57Showbird!
37:01Oh my God!
37:03Oh, she's so sad!
37:05To our winning singers, congratulations!
37:06You guys have officially advanced...
37:09Yeah! Buffalo are so happy!
37:11...to soundtrack of my life night for the Group A finals.
37:15So watch the Footloose glitter off your costumes and rest your pipes.
37:21We'll see you then. Y'all keep it going for them, y'all.
37:23Yeah!
37:24Yeah!
37:25Buffalo's, Woodbecker's, shit!
37:26Love you!
37:27Come on!
37:29And while you guys are still clapping, make some noise for Showbird!
37:35She was sensational, right?
37:37Oh, Showbird!
37:39All right. Now, Showbird, we are so sad to see you go, but we can't wait to see who you are!
37:45Yeah!
37:46We want to see this famous face, right?
37:48Yeah!
37:49Hey, Daniel, you know the drill.
37:51What are those final guesses?
37:53Yeah, I mean, who's going first?
37:54You!
37:55I think Ken should go first. He has an emotional connection.
37:58That's true.
37:59I really do. With the mass ambassador being Joe McHale, the incredible vocals and the stage presence,
38:06and finding love and being genuinely happy, I believe this is my community cast mate,
38:14Vet Nicole Brown, my bubby.
38:16I think it's my bubby.
38:17They got nicknames for it and everything.
38:19Yeah!
38:20I know, we call each other bubby all the time.
38:23All right. Robin, what you got?
38:25The big clue that stood out was the Michael Bivens connection to Motown Records,
38:30that she was part of a hip-hop family.
38:32Very true.
38:33That really, you know, shifted the whole guessing process here.
38:36So, I don't want any credit for it, but I do think the very best guess is your guess,
38:41Eva Nicole Brown.
38:43Wow!
38:44Wow, I don't think that's ever happened on this show before.
38:46I think that...
38:47Oh, there's always real...
38:48What?
38:49So much love.
38:50What's happening?
38:51All right, it's in my contract. You're not allowed to touch me.
38:53Remember, it's in the...
38:54What are you guys...
38:55Yeah, it's in the contract. No touching.
38:56What's happening here?
38:57I don't know. For me, though, when I heard that Empire clue...
39:01Yeah.
39:02Purple Cupcake, and I was thinking that has to be the color purple.
39:05Yeah.
39:06This has to be, and she knows how to sing.
39:08She can do it all.
39:09Taraji P. Henson.
39:10Taraji P.
39:11Yes!
39:12I don't think that's Taraji, but I think it's a very good guess.
39:14It's a good guess.
39:15I mean, I... I said that last week, and I actually think you could be right,
39:19but just to have another name in the mix, the Purple Cupcake, I mean, the Prince connection,
39:23I'm gonna stick with Sheila E.
39:25The Glamorous Life.
39:26Yeah.
39:27All right.
39:28Oh, she's playing her congas.
39:30Well, we love it. Those are some great guesses.
39:33Uh, but let's see if any of you are correct.
39:35Oh, man.
39:36And we'll do that after the break.
39:39Oh, come on. You just split up and everything.
39:41Got my legs all warm.
39:46Who is that?
39:48Who is that?
39:50Who is that?
39:54Welcome back to Footloose Night.
39:56Now, before the break, we learned Showbird is headed home.
40:01The panel guest, everyone, from Taraji P. Henson to Sheila E.
40:05Now, let's see if any of them are right.
40:08Showbird, we need to know, who are you?
40:12Oh, my goodness.
40:13Audience, say it with me.
40:15Take it off!
40:17Take it off!
40:19Take it off!
40:20Who is it?
40:21Take it off!
40:22Who is it?
40:23Take it off!
40:24Who's the Showbird?
40:25Take it off!
40:26I think we're all wrong.
40:27Take it off!
40:28Take it off!
40:29Take it off!
40:30Take it off!
40:31Take it off!
40:32Take it off!
40:33Take it off!
40:34Take it off!
40:35I told us!
40:37Emmy-nominated superstar from the hit show community, Yvette Nicole Brown!
40:46Ken Jeong was right!
40:49Ken, you're right again!
40:53I don't know why I'm getting emotional doing this!
40:59Tell us why you're emotional!
41:01It's funny!
41:02Like, first of all, this is a love letter to Ken.
41:04They've been asking me to do the show for years.
41:06And, you know, singing is my first love and it's hard to, you know, when it didn't work out.
41:11And so I always said no.
41:12But for you, I said I would come and do this for you.
41:16You were so great!
41:17You were so great!
41:18He did this for you, bruby!
41:19Yeah!
41:20Honestly, your family, we've gone through everything together.
41:23Yes.
41:24Our careers started around the same time.
41:26You know, like, the bond that we have.
41:28Yeah.
41:29I love you so much.
41:30Aww!
41:31By the way, your voice is phenomenal.
41:35Amazing!
41:36Can we expect some more singing?
41:37Y'all could have voted for me, though.
41:38Y'all could have voted more for me.
41:39Well, can we expect some more singing from the show, Bird?
41:42You know, I kind of feel like it bit me again.
41:44It's been 20 years since I've sung as myself.
41:46Wow.
41:47I sing on, I do cartoons and stuff.
41:48I've sung there.
41:49I've sung on Community.
41:50But to sing as me, it's been a very long time.
41:52Wow.
41:53Now, and you've had some iconic roles throughout your career.
41:56Yes.
