Ken Jeong thinks he knows which celebrity is hiding under the Strawberry Shortcake costume The Masked Singer. There’s just one small problem – his guess is Away out of.

The Season 12 semifinals take place on Wednesday’s episode (Fox, 8/7c) and bring back Strawberry Shortcake, Wasp and Buffalos to compete for the two spots in next week’s grand finale. Each of the three remaining participants gives a friendship bracelet to the juror with whom they already have a connection. This is how this moment arises:

“One of the highlights of my career was the press tour we did together,” Strawberry Shortcake tells Jeong in TVLine’s exclusive preview below. “You made me laugh all day.” Jeong immediately recalls a meeting with Joey King in the green room of a daytime talk show, which led him to declare – with surprising confidence – that… Kissing Booth The actress is wearing this costume.

So how do we know Jeong’s guess is wrong? Because the clues – not to mention the recognizable voice – all point to someone else: AJ Michalka!

Although Jeong and Michalka have never appeared on screen together (until now!), she was a regular on the ABC series The Goldbergs during Jeong’s short-lived comedy Ken was broadcast on the same channel, which makes it very likely that they met during press work. Jeong also mentions the mouse ears reference, claiming that it is a reference to King’s two episodes of The Suite Life of Zack & Cody. In fact, it is an allusion to that Years Michalka and her sister spent their time on Disney Channel.

So far this season, 12 celebrities have been unmasked: John Elway as Leaf Sheep, Yvette Nicole Brown as Showbird, Marsai Martin as Woodpecker, Paula Cole as Ship, Andy Richter as Dust Bunny, Laverne Cox as Chess Piece, Natalie Imbruglia as Bluebell, Bethany Hamiton as Macaron, Drake Bell as Ice King, Jana Kramer as Royal Knight, Bronson Arroyo as Sherlock Hound and Kobie Turner as Goo.
