From there, it was the contestants' turn to pay homage to John. To that end, Hawk swooped in with "Saturday Night's Alright ," Husky howled to the tune of "Bennie and the Jets," Royal Hen clucked out "Philadelphia Freedom," and Tiki torched his way through the competition with "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road."When it came to the guesses for each of the new contestants' identities, the panel seemed surprisingly clued in.
By the end, a second round of voting determined that Royal Hen had to leave the roost, so Thicke got to put that Gloria Steinem guess to one final use. Elsewhere,We can't believe it either, but for a third time this season, Jeong got it right, with Royal Hen being revealed as the tennis legend and iconic activist.
Stay tuned for that and more from Group B, which will return with a new wildcard contestant, during next week's Harry Potter Night onThe Masked Singer
