‘The Masked Singer’ exclusive clip: Ken Jeong says Nessy is this Grammy-winning rock star — and Robin Thicke agrees
The Masked Singer's crafty clue master, Ken Jeong, is at it again. This week, he's tailing Nessy during the "Decades Night" episode of the Fox reality singing competition. Ken calls out Grammy-winning rocker Patrick Monahan of Train as the long-necked crooner when Group C hits the stage for a mixed bag of classic hits on Wednesday.
In an exclusive preview clip below, Ken lays out his theory about who is hiding behind the Nessy mask.

"I think this could be Pat Monahan of Train because he is really good friends with Kevin Cronin of REO Speedwagon," Ken tells his co-panelists Robin Thicke, Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg, and Rita Ora. "They have performed together on stage. So many people have said 'I do' during their songs. Because of the REO Speedwagon connection, this still could be Pat Monahan of Train." Robin signs off on Ken's guess, stating, "Vocally, that makes sense."
It's "Decades Night" on The Masked Singer this Wednesday — and viewers will be tuned into Mystery Mixed Radio! Mad Scientist Monster, Nessy, and Yorkie will each perform a hit from an iconic era with renditions of "Stop! In The Name Of Love," "Love Yourself," "Can't Fight This Feeling" and "Hard to Handle." One celebrity will automatically advance to the Lucky Six, leaving the other two to face off in an electrifying Battle Royale. Is Ken right? Who do you think Nessy is?
