‘The Masked Singer’ Reveals Identity of Baby Mammoth: Kirstie Alley Is the Star Under the Mask

SPOILER alert: Do not read ahead if you have not watched Season 7, Episode 8, of “The Masked Singer,” “The Mask of Least Resistance – Round 3,” which aired April 27 on Fox.

So I guess we’re just gonna pretend that last week didn’t happen and just move on. But Wednesday night’s unmasked celebrity was a bit controversial in her own way: Kirstie Alley, who has generated her own kind of notorious headlines in recent years, was unmasked on this week’s episode as Baby Mammoth — a part of “Team Cuddly.”

For Baby Mammoth, one of the “Masked Singer” panelists got it right: Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg figured out it was Alley. Robin Thicke thought it was Kirsten Dunst, Nicole Scherzinger named Rachael Ray and Ken Jeong guessed Reese Witherspoon.

Alley as Baby Mammoth performed “The Shoop Shoop Song (It’s in His Kiss),” by Cher, on Wednesday’s show; later, she also sang “Me Too,” by Meghan Trainor. Last week, Alley/Mammoth sang “Walkin’ After Midnight,” by Patsy Cline.

A “mega clue” for Alley was a birdcage: “Well, I think that all animals should be wild things. So I set it free and helped it escape.” (Coincidentally, Alley once gifted her crew live birds, in birdcages, during a “Veronica’s Closet” wrap party.)

During last week’s episode, the Baby Mammoth revealed that “they told me that I could do anything I wanted out here except poop on the stage. So I’ll take it as a very big win because although you can poop in the circus, you’re not allowed on this show. I am feeling very good because although I have gotten lots of silver, I want to go for the gold!”

Previous panel guesses also included Sandra Bullock, Diane Keaton, Dianne Wiest, Nancy Kerrigan, Tonya Harding, Kathleen Turner and Suzanne Somers.

The episode came down to Alley as Baby Mammoth vs. the Space Bunny, in the duel. Alley/Mammoth started with “Me Too,” by Meghan Trainor, followed by Space Bunny with “Do You Really Want to Hurt Me,” by Culture Club.

Kirstie Alley as Baby Mammoth joins the roster of unmasked celebrities this season that also includes Rudy Giuliani as Jack in the Box, Duane “Dog the Bounty Hunter” Chapman as Armadillo, Jennifer Holliday as Miss Teddy, Penn and Teller as Hydra, Christie Brinkley as the Lemur , Jorge Garcia as Cyclops, Jordan Mailata as Thingamabob, Duff Goldman as McTerrier and Joe Buck as the Ram.

“The Masked Singer” entered Season 7 with 15 contestants, who have been divided into “The Good, the Bad and the Cuddly.” This season’s costumes include THE GOOD: Ringmaster, Armadillo, McTerrier, Firefly, Frog Prince; THE BAD: Hydra, Ram, Jack in the Box, Cyclops, Queen Cobra; THE CUDDLY: Baby Mammoth, Thingamabob, Lemur, Space Bunny, Miss Teddy.

The Season 7 contestants boast a combined 112 film appearances, 15 Grammy Nominations, eight Emmy Nominations, seven Super Bowl Performances, two Hollywood Walk of Fame Stars, two World Records and one attempt at destroying democracy by plotting a coup and undermining the properly elected President of the United States.

In another change, the show’s panelists don’t appear to be competing for a “Golden Ear” trophy based on their first impressions of each masked performer (which McCarthy has won two times, but Scherzinger won last season) this season.

Here were the other contestants and their performances on night eight:
