In the world of “The Masked Singer,” where celebrities hide behind whimsical costumes and belt out tunes, the spotlight shone brightly on a new set of performers during the One-Hit Wonders Night. Among the fresh faces was Hibiscus, a character who managed to capture the audience with her larger-than-life stage presence and intriguing clues.

The night kicked off with a festive atmosphere as judges Ken Jeong, Jenny McCarthy, Nicole Scherzinger, and Robin Thicke made their entrance to the rhythm of “Who Let the Dogs Out?” by Baha Men. It set the stage for a night of mystery and music that promised—and delivered—a reveal touted as ‘the biggest star we’ve ever had in 10 seasons,’ according to Jeong.

After Donut’s performance teased a backstory of a career defined by a singular hit, Hibiscus took to the stage, dazzling in the competition. Her clue package was a colorful medley of symbols: a gingerbread house, a first aid kit, a vampire, and the Statue of Liberty. Each emblem hinted at her personal journey from a competitive childhood to becoming a ‘sexy flower in the big city.’

Belting out “It’s Raining Men” by The Weather Girls, Hibiscus not only captivated McCarthy but also sparked a flurry of beauty pageant-related guesses from the panel, with names like Luann de Lesseps and Janice Dickinson floating around.

But the real twist came after the Smackdown. Faced off against Anteater with a charged rendition of “Hey Mickey” by Toni Basil, Hibiscus ultimately had to unmask. To the surprise of some and the expectation of others, she was revealed to be none other than Luann de Lesseps, also known as the Countess from “The Real Housewives of New York City.”

De Lesseps’ stint on the show reflected her multifaceted life: a registered nurse as hinted by the first aid kit, a nod to her “Lady Universe” moniker through the pageant imagery, and a tribute to the iconic reality series that catapulted her to fame. The revelation was a delightful addition to a season already brimming with accolades, Grammy nominations, and fame.

While Hibiscus’ time on the show has ended, the mystery continues with more masked celebrities waiting to be unmasked. As the judges and viewers at home piece together the clues, one can only wonder who will be next to reveal their true identity beneath the extravagant masks.

Catch ‘The Masked Singer’ Season 10 as the drama unfolds, and stay tuned for more unmaskings and surprising performances that promise to keep everyone guessing.
