"The Masked Singer" continued on Wednesday with "2000s Night,” but Pickle was unmasked as comedian and podcaster Michael Rapaport.

Show host Nick Cannon admitted afterwards he knew "the whole time" because he is a "personal friend" of the star.

Cow Moo-ves On

Cow remains +200 favorite to win the 10th season of "The Masked Singer" after he and Gazelle avoided the bottom two.

On Wednesday night, Cow admitted the 2000s were such a good decade for him, because he was in a “mooooosical," which might be a reference to actor Taye Diggs starring in Wicked from 2003 to 2004.

"Masked Singer" judge Nicole Scherzinger thinks Diggs could be behind the mask, but one of Cow's other clues could refer to Ne-Yo, who is now +300 second favorite to be the character, or Jason Derulo (+400).

The clue of a judge's gavel might be a nod to Ne-Yo being a panelist on reality series "World of Dance" from 2017 to 2020, while Derulo was a guest judge on "So You Think You Can Dance" and a coach on "The Voice Australia" this year. 

Janel Favorite To Be Gazelle

Gazelle is +300 second favorite for "Masked Singer" victory, and several viewers are convinced they know who is behind the mask.

Janel Parrish is the +100 favorite to be Gazelle after the character told in Episode 4 how deer are "really meaningful" to her, because they are a symbol of someone she "loved and lost" just a few weeks before her wedding.

In 2018, Parrish's father-in-law was killed by a drunk driver just weeks before she was due to marry his son, Chris. His name was Buck Long, and a buck is a male deer.

But one of Gazelle's other Episode 4 clues were dog tags, and this sparked fans to speculate that Hilary Duff (+300) could be behind the mask after she starred in 2002 TV movie "Cadet Kelly.”

Mandy Moore (+400), whom judge Robin Thicke guessed, and his fellow panelist Jenny McCarthy-Wahlberg's prediction of Ashley Tisdale (+500) are among those also in contention. 

S'More In A Pickle 

S'More has drifted to +500 to win the contest after landing in the bottom two on Wednesday night, but it was Pickle who went home.

Ashley Parker Angel and Justin Guarini are now joint +200 favorites to be under the mask, with fans divided over S'More's identity.

One of the reasons S'More loved the 2000s was because he had a baby in that decade, which could be a reference to Angel's son Lyric being born in 2005.

Guarini's first child, William, was born in 2011, appearing to put him out of the race to be S'More, but he previously adopted his wife Reina Capodici's daughter, Lola. 

What's S'More, Backstreet Boys' Kevin Richardson is +300 to be the character, and Simu Liu is +600.

Next week, the stars will channel their inner Elton John in "A Celebration of Elton John" night.
