LOS ANGELES - The theme was "Sports Night" on Wednesday’s episode of "The Masked Singer" and fans and panelists had to say goodbye to Dust Bunny, who became the latest contestant to leave the singing competition.
Joining the panelists and fans was comedian and TV personality Nikki Glaser who was given the title of "Most Valuable Roaster." Alongside Glaser was actor and TV host Joel McHale who was given the title of "The Soup-er Bowl Champ," likely referencing his time as a host on "The Soup."
Five new masked singers unleashed their talents on "The Masked Singer" stage on Wednesday before Dust Bunny became the odd one out.

Panelist Robin Thicke wagered his guess and suggested Chevy Chase was under the Dust Bunny mask; Jenny McCarthy guessed John C. Reilly; Ken Jeong suggested Will Ferrell; and Rita Ora guessed Jay Leno.
Turns out none of their guesses were correct as Dust Bunny revealed itself to be actor and comedian Andy Richter.
When asked what compelled him to compete on "The Masked Singer," in true Andy fashion, he replied, "I have got a four-year-old, I’ve got to get out of the house."
But all jokes aside, Richter said it was a joy to be on the show, and he had lots of fun.
Next week, think pink
During next week’s episode of "The Masked Singer," think pink because the theme will be "Barbie Night."
To celebrate Barbie’s 65th anniversary, the panelists will be learning more about the Group B celebrities as they pay tribute to one of Mattel’s most iconic toys.
