The jackalope is a mythical creature tied to North American folklore. It’s a cross between a jackrabbit and antelope, with a rabbit’s body and antelope horns on the top of its head. While it might not be a real creature, the Jackalope is a very real singer who made her debut on Sesame Street Night on The Masked Singer.
Jackalope made her debut along with fellow competition newcomer Fairy, and they went up against last week's champion, Squirrel. Squirrel won the Battle Royale, but the judges gave Gargoyle a second chance with the brand new Ding Dong Keep It On save feature.
Jackalope was up against some tough competition, but never count Jackalope out. They're mythical creatures, after all, and they know how to do a bit of razzle dazzle. While Jackalope made it to the Battle Royale, their turn on the show was short lived as they lost out to Fairy.
So who is Jackalope on The Masked Singer? Let’s look at the clues to see if we can figure it out.

Sesame Street Night Clues:
Celebrity Clue, delivered by The Count: A sign that says "30 Under 30." Jackalope said, "Donald Glover, Emma Stone and Michael B. Jordan. It is an honor to be on the same list."
Voiceover Clue: "I’m so excited to step into the ring on Sesame Street Night because I also love entertaining audiences of all ages. While I’m known to have a lot of influence, you’d be surprised that I wasn’t very social. Talking as a kid wasn’t my jam. So, growing up, I pioneered other ways to express myself through music and dance. Pretty soon, people all over the world began connecting with me and what I do because this Jackalope don’t lie. Posting about your problems to millions of strangers may seem crazy, but being vulnerable gives me strength. I’ve created a modern family of outcasts and together we’ve defined an industry. My kind of notoriety has its fair share of trolls. But I’ve learned to have a thick skin in my arena. So, my competition better watch out because this bunny’s moves shine brightest on Wednesdays."
