It's a bird. It's a plane. No, it's a UFO! UFO made her debut on The Masked Singer US season 9 for Space Night, and we have no doubt that she'll leave a big impression. The winner of The Masked Singer in Space Night will go directly to the quarterfinals.
UFO enters the competition along with fellow newcomer Lamp, and together they’ll face off against last week's champion Dandelion. Since Mantis was saved by the Ding Dong Keep it On save feature, the save is off the table so she'll have one shot to win the night.
But who is UFO? Let's look at the clues to see if we can figure out who is UFO on The Masked Singer.

In an early preview ahead of The Masked Singer’s airing on April 12, UFO can be seen singing Coldplay’s "Yellow."

This, of course, is why the clues are so helpful!
Who is UFO on The Masked Singer? Show clues
The Masked Singer in Space Night:
Clue, delivered by astronaut Mike Massimino: Planet wide. "I don't like to brag, but I'm not just known in American but the whole galaxy."
Voiceover clue: "An unidentified flying object was spotted hovering over a runway in New England and moving west. The musical frequencies it’s emitting are influencing radio waves and masking local broadcasts across the country. Local reports in New York say it touched down on the runway for 30 seconds and struck a pose with the locals. Witnesses on the ground describe the object as ‘down to earth’ to begin with. Then it skyrocketed into the stratosphere overnight, along with several sister ships. Latest news show its course charted for the Masked Singer stage. Look out universe, this is no model plane. Prepare for possible invasion right now."
Who is UFO on The Masked Singer? Costume clues
When it comes to themed costumes, well, let's just say that UFO's costume is out of this world. She's head to toe in silver material that looks like a spacesuit.
Her skirt is an actual flying saucer with flashing lights, but it's her round helmet and giant green eye that really capture our attention. She's also got long pointy ears, as most distinguished space-faring people do.
Who is UFO on The Masked Singer? Guesses
Fans on social media had a few ideas about UFO's identity ahead of her premiere on the show. Some of those guesses included Sandra Bullock, Dove Cameron, Lauren Alaina and Sarah Jessica Parker.
Ken Jeong guessed that UFO could be Kendall Jenner, and while his guesses tend to be way off base, it looks like Nick Cannon might actually agree with him on that guess. Other panel guesses include Gigi Hadid, Emily Blunt and Kaia Gerber.
The Masked Singer airs Wednesdays at 8 pm ET/PT on Fox.
