In The Masked Singer season 12, episode 6, which aired on November 6, contestants from Group B faced off in a 60s-themed episode. Bluebell, Goo, and Wasp competed for a spot in the next round. Bluebell was eliminated first and revealed to be Australian singer Natalie Imbruglia. Goo was also up for elimination, but Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg used the Ding Dong Keep it On button to save him at the last moment.

Bluebell performed Do You Love Me by Contours, but even her last performance couldn't get the panelists to guess her correctly. The Grammy-nominated singer left the panelists and the audience shocked upon her reveal, while some fans on X contemplated on the clues of her identity, she had left during her journey on the show.

"Wow, Natalie Imbruglia? I never would’ve guessed," an X user wrote.
"I LOOOOOVE Natalie Imbruglia and never would have guessed it was her!!!" another user said.
"Never heard of that Natalie woman! Or don't think I have!" a third one added.
"Ok, yh I would not have guessed #BluebellMask was Natalie Imbruglia," another wrote.

Some fans pointed out that Natalie Imbruglia was on The Masked Singer UK series 3 and called out the panelists for still not being able to recognize her.

"I can't believe that they FAILED to guess NATALIE FLIPPIN IMBRUGA, @RitaOra should have guessed her because she on was #TheMaskedSinger UK Series 3! Now that's 3 wrong in a Row....," a fan wrote.
"@RitaOra, NATALIE IMBRUGLIA was on your UK Series 3! Why didn't you guess her, DAMN IT?!" wrote another one.
"Bluebell first one to take it off tonight. No one got it right. It's actress and singer Natalie Imbruglia," said one fan.
"I knew it, And I was right, Natalie Imbruglia was the Bluebell," added another.

Bluebell's last performance, panelists' guesses, in episode 6 of The Masked Singer season 12

The Masked Singer Group B finals, following 60's Night as the theme, kicked off with Goo. He sang House of the Rising Sun by The Animals. Bluebell was the next one to go. In her voiceover, she told the viewers how she went through "writer's block" and was without inspiration for a long time until she became a mom. She said:

"I was at the top of my field, but when things stopped going my way, I was left wondering, ‘Does anyone still love me?’"

With this, she sang Do You Love Me, fitting perfectly well with her intro. The panelist Ken Jeong guessed her to be Rose Byrne, while Rita Ora thought she was Kylie Minogue. Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg went with Naomi Watts as her guess.

After Bluebell's soulful The Masked Singer performance, it was Wasp's turn and he chose to sing, Ain't No Way by Aretha Franklin. His performance was followed by a studio audience vote which would send one out of the three singers home, while the remaining two would battle it out for the final position in the quarter-finals.

The audience eliminated Bluebell first, revealing her as Natalie Imbruglia in a surprising unmasking. Goo and Wasp then sang I Heard It Through the Grapevine, with Wasp winning the battle. Just before Goo’s reveal, Jenny used the season's only "Ding Dong Keep It On" button to save him, advancing him to the quarterfinals. This means there will be two eliminations in next week's Group C finals.


New episodes of The Masked Singer season 12 come out on Wednesdays, at 8 pm ET, on FOX.
