While the Black Swan and Chameleon were contestants to be reckoned with they were no match for the vocal power of the Piglet.
Rapping legend Wiz Khalifa was discovered to be the Chameleon while singer, songwriter JoJo was unmasked as the Black Swan.
"Peek-a-boo, it’s meee," JoJo wrote on Twitter after her big reveal.
"Who thought it was me?" Wiz Khalifa wrote in a post to his Twitter account with a picture of him wearing his iconic costume.
While the two gave unforgettable performances that lasted them into the final round of this wild card season, The Piglet ended up being crowned the champion.
Actor, singer and television personality Nick Lachey ended up taking the bacon with the highly coveted Golden Mask.
Lachey, 47, told FOX Television Stations "The Masked Singer" reinforced how much he loves music and performing.
"More personally, I’m proud of myself for overcoming some of the challenges that you encounter on that show. It’s really hard to sing in that costume, and at the beginning, I wasn’t sure that I was going to be able to get through it, to be honest with you. It was really tough," Lachey revealed. "Coming out of it, I can definitely say it was worth every second."
