It’s nearly time to crown a winner on this season of The Masked Singer. The inventive reality show puts a clever twist on a classic singing competition as celebrities don full-body costumes to hide their identity, leaving it to the judges to guess who the performer is.
Now that Season 4 is down to the final four, it’s been revealed what some of the final musical numbers will be. Read on to find out what hits you can expect in the semi-final showdown.
The Top Four Will Go Head To Head
The semi-finals will officially air on Wednesday, April 30th, where fans will get to see the remaining masked contestants battle it out for a chance at glory. Together, the group will first do a group performance, doing the song “HandClap!” before moving on to their solo performances.
It’s since been announced that the individual performances will include the following hit songs: “A Bar Song (AKA Tipsy),” “Maps,” “You Don’t Own Me,” and “What Was I Made For,” a mix of more recent hits as well as some throwbacks from several years ago. The season’s panelists, which include Ken Jeong, Rita Ora, Robin Thicke, and Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg, will continue trying to guess who is behind the amazing voices they’ve been hearing each week.

It’s the Semi Finals on The Masked Singer and the final four are ready to make some hands clap with their superstar rendition of “HandClap!” The four semi-finalists are ready to battle it out ahead of next week’s blockbuster season finale.
The Season’s Reveals Have Been Star-Studded So Far
Fans have already noted how amazing the season has been so far, as every elimination reveal has proved to be a very famous face that they can’t seem to believe signed on for the show. As of this article’s publishing, there have been over ten unmaskings on the season so far, with some major A-listers among them.
Included in the participants this season are some notable reality TV stars, such as Scheana Shay of Vanderpump Rules and The Valley. There have also been those from the music world, including Flavor Flav and Aubrey O’Day. Viewers were also surprised to find some of their old 90s heartthrobs among the cast as well. Candace Cameron Bure participated as the “Cherry Blossom” character, while, in the second-most recent elimination, Matthew Lawrence was revealed to be the angelic voice behind the “Paparazzo” character.

Sarah Palin Wanted To Hide Her Masked Singer Past After She Sued The New York Times
Sarah Palin petitioned the court to hide her The Masked Singer past during her lawsuit against The New York Times.
After Matthew’s elimination, he explained that, as much as fans were surprised about his appearance on the show, he was perhaps even more surprised. In his final onstage comments while still in costume, he elaborated on his feelings:
If you had told me that this little guy would still be standing here, I’d say, ‘You’re crazy,’ because I’ve never sang before… And — big spoiler alert — this next song is the biggest hint to my identity yet.
While some cast members seem to join The Masked Singer to see if they can hide in plain sight for the amusement of it all, Mathew seemed to be joining the show for a completely different reason. “I did this ’cause it’s kind of a fear of me, to be honest with you. The chance to sing and have that veil — that was a big thing for me,” the newcomer to the stage admitted.
The last four contestants of Season 4 will soon be competing in what is being called a “head-to-head” competition for the semi-finals. If you’re anything like me, you’ll be waiting with bated breath to see who makes it all the way to the finals. Fans of the show can tune in to The Masked Singer on Wednesdays at 8pm EST on Fox.
