It's a bird. It's a plane. No, it's a UFO! UFO made her debut on The Masked Singer US season 9 for Space Night, and we have no doubt that she'll leave a big impression. The winner of The Masked Singer in Space Night will go directly to the quarterfinals.
UFO entered the competition along with fellow newcomer Lamp, and together they faced off against champion Dandelion. Since Mantis was saved by the Ding Dong Keep it On save feature, the save is off the table so she had one shot to win the night.
In the quarterfinals, UFO faced off against California Roll, Medusa and Macaw and ultimately was unmasked at the end of the night.
But who is UFO? Let's look at the clues to see if we can figure out who is UFO on The Masked Singer.

In an early preview ahead of The Masked Singer’s airing on April 12, UFO could be seen singing Coldplay’s "Yellow." UFO's voice sounded very familiar but it was hard to tell if she was a famous singer or someone who isn't a singer by trade yet has a lovely singing voice. This, of course, is why the clues are so helpful!
During the quarterfinals, UFO sang "Tears Dry on Their Own" by Amy Winehouse.
Who is UFO on The Masked Singer? Show clues
The Masked Singer in Space Night:
Clue, delivered by astronaut Mike Massimino: Planet wide. "I don't like to brag, but I'm not just known in American but the whole galaxy."
Voiceover clue: "An unidentified flying object was spotted hovering over a runway in New England and moving west. The musical frequencies it’s emitting are influencing radio waves and masking local broadcasts across the country. Local reports in New York say it touched down on the runway for 30 seconds and struck a pose with the locals. Witnesses on the ground describe the object as ‘down to earth’ to begin with. Then it skyrocketed into the stratosphere overnight, along with several sister ships. Latest news show its course charted for the Masked Singer stage. Look out universe, this is no model plane. Prepare for possible invasion right now."
Quarterfinals:
Voiceover clue: "I was really nervous when I sang my first song. But I’m really excited to have made it this far. This experience has exemplified going out of my comfort zone and being more vulnerable than I ever have before. So much of my career is based on the way I look physically, so adding value through my energy or my singing, it feels like there is more that I have to offer. And I’m getting older, so I have to hold on to something. Joking!"
