Christmas is coming early this week with a double helping ofThe Masked Singer.And on Tuesday’s episode, audiences saw the remaining six competitors perform during the same episode for the first time this season before the Tree jingled all the way home.
At the end of the night, the studio audience and the judges voted on their least favorite performance to decide which contestant would be eliminated.
Tree lost the vote and had to catch the next sleigh home, but not before removing her mask. Underneath the festive costume: actress and comedianAna Gasteyer.

While McCarthy had pegged Gasteyer as the Tree, the rest of the panel didn’t suspect the formerSaturday Night Livestar, 52. Gasteyer even appeared with Jeong in a live version ofA Christmas Storyon Fox, which she reminded him.
“It wasn’t that long ago, Ken,” Gasteyer said after being unmasked. “And I sang a major number!”The night didn’t only disappoint for the Tree, but some viewers complained on Twitter of hearing a reverberation during the broadcast that made it sound like all of the audio from the playback was echoing. For some, the program also contained a female narrator giving descriptions of the contestants’ and panelists’ actions.
