Who is Goldfish on The Masked Singer season 11? Show clues
Here are the show clues for Goldfish:
Rita We Love Your Ora Night:
Clue: Gold record. "Let the record show that gold is my lucky color."
Voiceover Clue: "It’s official. You finally caught me in The Masked Singer net. When I first started out, I made a splash overnight. But all that success made me feel like I was living in a fishbowl, with everyone’s eyes and expectations on me. I had big decisions to make. I could play it safe, or dive into deeper, darker edgier waters. So, I took the plunge. Even though it was a risk, I swam against the current and broke the mold. And to this day, still love to keep people guessing. That’s why I’m here. Hollywood can be a little soul sucking. So, I’m proud I kept my head on my shoulders. Just like this mask is going to be."
Transformers Night clues:
Clue: "A true performer, Goldfish famously put her heart, sould and tears into her work."
Voiceover Clue: "I felt that last performance in my soul. And I’m hyped for tonight, because who doesn’t love Transformers? Sometimes, the most transformative moments are actually breakups. I always thought I would be married young, like my mom. But dating in Hollywood is hard. And this Goldfish wasn’t always lucky. Imagine trying to move on, and when you literally see your exes everywhere. And even having your moments turned into TikToks. It forced me to reflect and focus on what I need. Now, here is a song for anyone who has ever had their heart broken. But if the lyrics cut deep, take it from me, there are plenty of fish in the sea."
Queen Night clues:
Clue: "Well, Ken, you’re ridiculous and you have so much heart, and I love it so much. You obviously haven’t changed since the last time we worked together."
Voiceover clue: "I’m so excited that I’m in the Group A finals! I really tried to appreciate every moment. Because I’ve learned that life comes in waves. I had just gotten a dream role. But the night before my debut, I received the worst news I could have ever imagined. I lost my No. 1 supporter. Nothing could have prepared me for that. I felt like I couldn’t move. But then I remembered, there was no one in the world that enjoyed watching me perform more. So, I reached down inside and found the courage to take that stage. And I performed for the one seat that wasn’t filled. It was heartbreaking, but so beautiful to honor them. It was one of those ‘the show must go on’ moments. And I had the resilience and strength to push through because of everything they had taught me. And this song is for them."
Quarterfinals Final Four Night clues:
Clue: "Hey babe, I’m so happy to see you thriving in this competition. But honestly, I knew you would all along. You never back down from a challenge and you absolutely love to perform live."
Voiceover Clue: "It feels incredible to be the Group A winner. Best part of being here is getting to do what I love. I feel like I’ve been through a lot in my career. When you’re young and suddenly a role model, there’s a lot of pressure to live up to the expectation. And grow up in front of the whole world. People wanted me to be one thing: Perfect. But perfect is impossible. The one thing that I am is resilient. In Hollywood, you have to keep reinventing yourself. We’re not the same from our teenage years to our adult years. And thank God! Tonight I’m singing ‘Unforgettable.’ And it would mean the world to me to get to the semi-finals. Because while they say goldfish don’t have a great memory, this experience is one I will never forget."
Semi-Finals: Then There Were Three clues:
Clue: "It’s a real blast from the past, because me and the mouse, we go way back."
Voiceover Clue: "Being in the semi-finals is sort of surreal. Now I’ve gotta say, fame was never my goal. I honestly thought I was going to be a pediatrician. But I loved to perform. I just didn’t realize that in order to do what I love, I would have to live in a fish bowl. And it made me retreat. And be a lot more private. Becoming the Goldfish has unleashed a really fun, silly side of myself. That honestly, only a few people in my life get to see. And it’s been so much fun letting loose. Coming from a girl who once wore a prom dress to an awards show, this is everything.. The gowns, the gills, the glam. Tonight I’m singing ‘You Oughta Know,’ by Alanis Morisette. And I’m here to remind you that I would love a spot in the finale. It would mean everything to put that gold mask trophy next to my others. And oh, I would really like to take the microphone too."
Finale: One Mask Takes it All clues
Last Words: "This experience has been so incredible and so special for me. It really surprised me. Because not everybody knows what I actually do. And the fact that you guys have seen me, have truly seen me for what I love doing, really lights a fire under my little fish tail. Thank you so much, it means the world to me."
Voiceover clue: "I have loved being able to swim into new territories as the golden girl on this stage. As a little girl, I was never really great at expressing myself. It’s not something I really grew up around. But lately I have been on a journey of self-discovery. And being here, I’ve been able to express myself, so freely. I come from a working class family that has no connection to Hollywood whatsoever. So, there’s no reason I should have made it. But I’m proof with enough hard work and dedication, you can truly do anything. And I’m so proud of my performances. I can’t wait to have kids when that time comes so I can be like, ‘look at mommy go!’ I know I’m up against some steep competition, but winning this would be the ultimate pat on the back. It would mean so much. It makes me so emotional. Because I’ve always thought of myself as an actor first, singing does kind of come second. Doing the Masked Singer is my way of giving everyone a music moment. And the response has made me want it to never end."
The Masked Singer season 11 airs Wednesdays at 8 pm ET/PT on Fox and streams the following day on Hulu.
