Who is Clock on The Masked Singer season 11? Show clues

Here's a roundup of all the clues about Clock's identity right here:

Billy Joel Night clues

Clue: Clock's clue is in the form of a song, specifically the song "Vienna." "Vienna is all about seizing the day. And I actually have a date in my name."

Voiceover clue: "I’m delighted being here on Billy Joel night. Because let’s face it, we’re both timeless. Once upon a time, I was the belle of the ball. I had the whole world dancing from dusk till dawn. Everyone knew my name. But, as the years passed, trends started to change, and I suddenly felt like I was becoming frozen in time. So, this queen reinvented herself. And I achieved massive success again, on my own terms. With the crowning achievement of performing for a president. Now, like the Piano Man says, I’m going to sing you a song tonight. So, all of you other singers better watch out. Because your time’s about to be up."

TV Theme Night clues

Clue: The Love Boat star Jill Whelan. "Love and boats, two things that combine to make a hit. Something I know first-hand."

Voiceover clue: "I had the time of my life singing on Billy Joel night. And I’m making every second count on the stage. In my life, I’ve had my fair share of ups and downs. Just like any good TV series, I’ve laughed and I’ve cried. And thank goodness, I’ve always been renewed. But I think it’s my positive outlook that’s carried me season to season. When I was broke, I appreciated the free things in life. When my car didn’t start, what a beautiful day for a walk. And even though my marriages didn’t work out, something great came from those relationships. My beautiful children. I’ve learned there will always be good times and bad. And now, let’s keep the good times going all the way to the Group C finale."

Shower Anthems Night clues

Clue: A rubber duck that has Nick's name on it. "Nicholas, this isn’t the first time you’ve hosted me."

Voiceover clue: "TV Theme Night was such a good time. I’m honored to be in the Group C finale, because in my line of work, we love a curtain call. In this case, a shower curtain call. There’s something about the show that gives me the courage to belt out the biggest diva hits of all time. And let me tell you, I’ve been amongst them. You see, I was nominated for one of the most prestigious awards against some legendary ladies: Queen Aretha and Natalie Cole. I didn’t think I’d win, so I stayed home literally scrubbing the kitchen floor. And then, I won! I actually won! And I gave my acceptance speech to the mop. Instead of to millions. Can you imagine? So take it from Aretha. When it’s your time to shine, you better show up and respect yourself."

Quarterfinals Final Four Night clues: 

Clue: "Hi mom, you never cease to amaze me. I’ve seen you perform thousands of times. I know you’re nervous tonight, but remember, you performed for the Pope! Ken Jeong should be a piece of cake."

Voiceover Clue: "It’s incredible to be in the quarterfinals as the Group C champion. And winning against all these young whippersnappers still has this clock in shock. When I was younger, everyone loved hearing me sing. Until I told them I wanted to do it for a living. Suddenly, it was all, ‘what? Are you crazy?!’ You see, I was a young mother, and most concerned was my own mom. She said, ‘how are you going to take care of these kids and sing in nightclubs?’ But that all changed when she saw me sing one night. She was mesmerized. And from that moment on, it was a family affair. She helped out where she could, and now my son actually works with me on tour. And I’ve been able to stay on my feet for all these years because of their support. Now tonight, I plan to get you on your feet. Because this clock is ticking for a spot in the semi-finals!"

Semi-Finals: Then There Were Three clues: 

Clue: "This isn’t the first stage show I’ve done. And every performance I’ve done has been solid gold."

Voiceover clue: "Standing here in the semi-finals has been a total statement for me! Because, well, I’m not as young as I used to be. But become the Clock has been so fun, it’s reminded me after all these years, mama’s still got it! But it’s also been a challenge. When I was younger, I had stage fright so badly my knees would knock under my bath robe. I had to learn how to connect with the audience through eye contact and a smile. And now, this mask takes that all away! So I’ve had to connect in other ways. This dress was not made for movin’, but that doesn’t stop me! See, I wanted to do Masked Singer to introduce myself to a whole new generation. And to make it this far, is a real treat. So now, I’m going to be singing, dancing, and twerking my way into the finale."

The Masked Singer season 11 airs Wednesdays at 8 pm ET/PT on Fox and streams the following day on Hulu.
