Wednesday is ’80s Night on “The Masked Singer,” and the show is bringing out the superstars of the 1980s to make it official.
In the exclusive video clip above, grammy award winning rapper The young MC has everyone dancing as he performs his 1989 hit “Bust a Move”. Back in the day, the song peaked at number seven on the US Billboard Hot 100 and remained at the top. Billboard Hot 100 for 39 weeks and 20 weeks in the Top 40 – and has apparently become a dance party staple, unless you know what to do (just bust out a move).
While the young MC was rocking the crowd, of course her back-up dancers started break dancing – I mean it’s 80’s night.
And in case you missed last week’s episode, we finally got to see the identity of Angel and the axolotl. You might remember, Ken Jeong was convinced the angel was Jennifer Aniston, but it turned out it was “21 Jump Street” actor Holly Robinson Pete — so, we have to give Jeong a little credit when he came up with the significance of the number 21. told.
As for the axolotl, the judges were thinking she was an athlete – she was WWE Superstar Alexa Bliss. He admitted to TheWrap that he got some advice from a member of NSYNC when he decided to join the show.
This season’s “The Masked Singer” contestants are pretty accomplished, with a combined 28 Emmy nominations, six Grammy wins, 10 Gold albums, four Golden Globe nominations, five medals, 26 books, two Tony Award nominations, five Lifetime Achievement Awards, four Stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and sold a combined 95,231,000 records.
The Masked Singer airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET on Fox.
