It was double the fun on The Masked Singer Wednesday (April 13) night, as two masks were sent packing, including one Grammy Award-winning star of the stage.
Season 7, Episode 6, of Fox’s surprise hit was aptly-titled” “The Double Mask-Off.” That’s exactly what we got.
Armadillo, with his hard exterior, was always going to be tough to crack. But he was given the boot after singing the classic hymn “Amazing Grace.” Under that hard exterior was, well, a hard man, Duane Chapman, also known as Dog the Bounty Hunter. Perhaps producers could have made our task easier and dress him in a canine costume?
The TV tough guy had previous sung old school numbers “Secret Agent Man” by Johnny Rivers, and the Bobby Fuller Four’s “I Fought the Law”.

The super-cute Miss Teddy also got the flick.
In earlier rounds, she performed Taylor Dayne’s “Tell It to My Heart,” and Demi Lovato’s “Tell Me You Love Me”. And tonight, she belted out Duffy’s “Mercy” like a real pro. That’s because she’s a bona-fide star.
Under the mask was one of the most decorated singers ever to wear a Masked Singer mask, the Grammy and Tony Award-winning singer and actress Jennifer Holliday.
“This might be the biggest upset in Masked Singer history,” panelist Ken Jeong remarked following her departure.

Charlie Puth got all the wrong “Attention” from Sir Elton John.
Puth stopped by Ellen on Wednesday (April 13) to perform his latest hit “Light Switch,” and while chatting with Ellen Degeneres, the singer revealed the comment that inspired him to make his most truthful music yet.
“The most important thing you can do, for all the songwriters watching this, when you write a song, it’s important to tell the truth. I wasn’t really doing that in 2019,” he explained of the time following the release of his 2018 album, Voicenotes. “The person who awoken my sense was none other than Elton John.”
Puth went on to explain that he met the iconic “Rocketman” singer at the popular West Hollywood restaurant, Craig’s, where Puth recalled John saying to him, “You know, your music sucked in 2019. It wasn’t good.”
While John’s thoughts were a “gut punch” to Puth, the quality of his music was something he had already been thinking about. “I was going through a messy breakup, and I think that was also going alongside it. It was kind of a wake-up call. I was in denial a little bit,” he explained. “Then, the whole world shut down and I was able to sit with my new way of making music and just decided I would never put out a song again if it weren’t the truth.”
Puth shared that his upcoming album Charlie because, “in the spirit of telling the truth, it’s the most ‘me’ music ever.”

Hailey Bieber has had enough. On Tuesday, the model shared a message with her online haters and didn’t hold anything back.
“This is for you guys in my comments every single time I post,” she captioned the frank TikTok video, which finds her speaking directly to the camera. “Leave me alone at this point,” she says in the clip. “I’m minding my business, I don’t do anything, I don’t say anything. Leave me alone. Please. Enough time has gone by where it’s valid to leave me alone. I beg of you, truly. That’s my only request. Leave me alone. Be miserable somewhere else. Please.”
The online harassment experienced by Bieber has been a near-constant in her life ever since she started dating now-husband Justin Bieber. In fact, back in December 2020, the pop star even publicly called out a fan of his ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez who was encouraging her followers to bully his wife by bombarding her Instagram Live with comments comparing her to the “Rare” singer.
“I just wanted to share this so that people get an idea of what we face on a day to day,” Justin wrote on his Instagram Stories at the time. “It is extremely hard to choose the high road when i see people like this try and rally to gather people to bully the person i love the most in this world. It is not right.”
Meanwhile, the daughter of Stephen Baldwin is still recovering after being hospitalized last month with a blood clot in her brain that was causing stroke-like symptoms. “Although this was definitely one of the scariest moments I’ve ever been through, I’m home now and doing well,” she shared on social media upon being released from the hospital. The health scare occurred amid Justin’s ongoing Justice World Tour, where he’s offering crew and fans free therapy through a partnership with online therapy platform Better Help.

An all-new documentary celebrating the life of late British rockstar David Bowie is nearing completion and will be released by NEON and Universal Pictures Content Group, the companies announced Wednesday (April 13). Titled Moonage Daydream, the film will be released by NEON in the U.S., while Universal Pictures Content Group has international distribution rights.
No theatrical release date has been announced, though the film is slated to premiere on HBO and HBO Max in spring 2023 via HBO Documentary Films. Theatrical engagements for Moonage Daydream — which marks the first film under a multi-picture deal between Morgen and BMG for IMAX Productions — will include IMAX screenings in select markets.
Five years in the making, Moonage Daydream was written, directed, edited and produced by Brett Morgen, who was given “unfiltered” access to Bowie’s personal archives, including all master recordings, according to a press release. While researching the film, Morgen came across hundreds of hours of never-before-seen 35mm and 16mm footage, allowing him to assemble Bowie’s performances from these original camera masters. The resulting project is described as “an artful and life-affirming film that takes the audience on a journey through Bowie’s creative life.”
Morgen was assisted in the effort by Bowie’s long-time collaborator, friend and music producer Tony Visconti; sound mixer Paul Massey (Bohemian Rhapsody); sound engineer David Giammarco (Ford v. Ferrari); the sound design team of John Warhurst and Nina Hartstone (Bohemian Rhapsody); and visual effects producer Stefan Nadelman (Kurt Cobain: Montage of Heck).
Guided by “Bowie’s narration,” according to the release, Moonage Daydream includes 48 musical tracks mixed from their original stems and is the first film to be officially sanctioned by his estate. BMG owns the rights to Bowie’s songs released between 1970 to 1977, including the title song “Moonage Daydream” along with “Changes,” “Starman,” “Ziggy Stardust,” “The Jean Genie,” “All The Young Dudes,” “Life on Mars,” “Rebel Rebel,” “Fame,” “Young Americans” and “Golden Years.” The company additionally has the rights to six early Bowie recordings first released on the Pye label in 1966.
Moonage Daydream is part of an ongoing Bowie75 commemoration in honor of the icon’s life and musical legacy. Bowie died of liver cancer in January 2016 and would have turned 75 on Jan. 8, 2022.
Live Nation Productions partnered with BMG on Moonage Daydream as co-financiers and executive producers. Additional executive producers on the project include Hartwig Masuch, Kathy Rivkin-Daum and Justus Haerder for BMG; Michael Rapino, Heather Parry and Ryan Kroft for Live Nation Productions; Bill Zysblat, Tom Cyrana, Aisha Cohen and Eileen D’Arcy for RZO; Billy Gerber and Debra Eisenstadt.
NEON’s Jeff Deutchman negotiated the North America deal with Kevin Koloff, as well as Karen Gottlieb of Grubman Shire Meiselas & Sacks, P.C. Submarine and WME handled sales.
