After each performance, hostNick Cannonwheeled out theMasked SingerMind Reader and revealed what each contestant was thinking about. Yeti had corn on the brain. “Corn popped into my mind,” the mythical creature said.
Robopine came up next and shared in his clue package — which featured butter and jelly — that as a kid, his family “was on food stamps.” “It was a constant struggle,” he added. Robo also said that a theme park ride based on one of his projects exists and that unfortunately, a close friend of his died.
“He was taken too soon in the most tragic way, but I was lucky to be on life’s roller coaster with him while I could,” Robopine said. “If he was here and could see me in this big robot porcupine costume, I know he’d be proud.”

After giving a tender rendition of Boyz II Men’s “Water Runs Dry,” Robopine’s mind reader clue showed a lightbulb. “I’m just not hurting for ideas,” the futuristic porcupine said. “I’m addicted to creativity.”
The panelists guesses includedTyrese GibsonandUsher.
Cluedle-Doo commandeered Piglet’s mind reader clue, but shared that the swine once “caught touchdowns from Dan Marino.”
“I think he’s going to oink his way to the top,” Thicke, 44, concluded of Piglet.

Next up, Black Swan delivered an energetic take on Stevie Wonders' “Do I Do.” The feathery bird shared in her clue package, “As a little girl, I would put a hat out on the street and like sing for people. I would ask what they wanted to hear. And I just had absolutely no fear.” The clip additionally showed an umbrella, Swan Kissed Soda and the state of New Hampshire.
OnBlack Swan’s mind: Cannon’s ex-wifeMariah Carey. “For the record, I’m a huge fan of hers,” she shared. “So passing her record one time was just one of the biggest moments of my entire life.”
The panel considered that Black Swan may beKesha,Christina Milian(another Cannon ex!) orMandy Moore.
Russian Dolls got vulnerable in their clue package, too. “Growing up, we were laughed at,” one of the dolls said. “Even the way we looked was criticized. Like we could help it!” But the other doll shared, “We’ve embraced not being the coolest because we’ve reached a lot of people who maybe felt like outsiders just like us.”
The Mind Reader uncovered that the dolls were thinking about a kangaroo. “Just like kangaroo with its joeys, you never know how many of us are going to pop out,” one of the disguised celebrities teased.
Hanson and Nickelback both came up as possibilities for Russian Dolls.

Chameleon closed out the Spicy 6 with a glowing performance of Busta Rhymes' “Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Could See.” “I’m a groupie,” Scherzinger, 42, joked afterwards.
The lizard revealed in their clue package that they grew up as a military kid who moved around frequently. Brownies, a plane, a captain’s hat and orange slices appeared in the video as well.
TheMasked SingerMind Reader displayed a sneaker on Chameleon’s mind, a clue they hoped would help the judges “take a step in the right direction.” The panel suggested rappers Young Thug andSnoop Doggfor the color-changing reptile.
Once the judges and the virtual audience voted on their favorite performance of the night, Cannon announced Robopine had received the fewest number of votes and would be taking off their mask.
While a lot of the panelists thoughtJamie Foxxwould be under the prickly getup, it ended up being Scherzinger’s guess:Fast and Furiousstar Gibson.
