'Whoo' is behind the mask? Owl says goodbye to 'The Masked Singer' stage
Owl was revealed on the latest episode of "The Masked Singer."
LOS ANGELES - "The Masked Singer" rang in Valentine’s Day early with "Twilight Night" on Wednesday, celebrating the romantic saga.
On this week’s new episode, Cat Witch, 14 Karat Carrot, Stingray and Owl battled it out for another chance to continue performing in the FOX competition series.
After the vote, Cat Witch and 14 Karat Carrot became the first two contestants to advance. Stingray and Owl then faced off in a "Vampire Royale," where Owl was ultimately eliminated.

The panel of judges floated guesses ranging from Dennis Quaid to Kurt Russell to Ted Danson – but none correctly identified Cyrus as the one behind the costume.
"It’s very rare that none of us get it right, especially for such a big name and a big star and somebody we’ve guessed so many times, so to be able to fool all of us is quite an accomplishment," judge Robin Thicke told Cyrus.
