There is a new show
called The Masked Singer.
It's a singing competition
but all the singers
wear giant masks on their heads.
It's what American
Idol would look
like if you were on mushrooms,
and the show is a big hit.
It had the biggest
premiere in seven years,
so if that's what
people want, I came up
with an idea of my own version,
it's called The Masked Dancer.
[HIGH-ENERGY MUSIC PLAYING]
Absolutely.
All right, here's how it works.
There's a celebrity
backstage, they're
going to put a costume on
and dance, and then tWitch
and I will ask the Masked
Dancer some questions
and guess who it is, and we'll
keep guessing until we get it
or until a lawyer from Fox
shows up and tells us to stop.
The dancer gave us a few
clues to help us out,
and they are, my birthday is
between February and September,
sometimes I wear glasses, my
middle initial is not "R."
All right, that helps nothing--
nothing at all.
That-- OK, please welcome
today's Masked Dancer.

[TWITCH AND ELLEN LAUGHING]
[AUDIENCE CHEERING]
All right.
All right.
[PANTING LOUDLY]
You're out of breath so you're
not a dancer for a living.
Do we know you from
television or movies?
(DISTORTED VOICE) A
little bit of both.
A little bit of both.
A little bit of both.
All right.
[ELLEN LAUGHING]
I think it's [INAUDIBLE].
[AUDIENCE LAUGHING]
Are you-- uh.
Well, you're a good dancer.
Yeah.
Um, all right.
OK.
How many times have you
been a guest on this show?
(DISTORTED VOICE)
Including today?
Yeah.
(DISTORTED VOICE) Sixteen.
[AUDIENCE GASPING]
Are you on a TV show right now?
(DISTORTED VOICE) Yes, ma'am.
[CLAPPING]
Do you play musical instruments?
(DISTORTED VOICE) Yes.
[ELLEN SIGHING]
Do you--
(DISTORTED VOICE) This
thing is really hot,
so if you could speed it up.
[ALL LAUGHING]
(DISTORTED VOICE) Just a little
less gap between each question.
Anytime today.
If you're were an alarm clock
how would you wake me up?
(DISTORTED VOICE)
With a big dong.
[AUDIENCE LAUGHING]
That's not OK.
I'm sorry.
(DISTORTED VOICE) [INAUDIBLE]
Um--
(DISTORTED VOICE)
Pace, people, pace.
Yeah.
All right, we'll take
a break and then uh--
[ALL LAUGHING]
We'll find out who
you are after this.
We'll be right back.
All right, it's time
for me and tWitch
to guess who we think
The Masked Dancer is.
I've narrowed it down.
For me it's between
Eminem or Rhea Perlman,
but who do you think it is?
Um, OK, so I--
just off of the
answers alone, I mean,
do you-- should I say who it is?
Yeah, I think we both
think it's the same person.
Yeah.
We think it's Sean Hayes.
We think you're Sean Hayes.
[ALL LAUGHING AND CHEERING]
[MOUTHS "I CAN BREATHE"]
Did you [INAUDIBLE]?
Did I get them right?
And you were funny!
[TWITCH LAUGHING]
[AUDIENCE CHEERING]
I want to thank Claire
Foy and Sean Hayes,
I'll see you tomorrow.
Be kind to one another, bye-bye.
