SPOILER ALERT: Details follow for Season 14, Episode 2 of \u201cThe Masked Singer,\u201d \u201cFear Night,\u201d which aired Jan. 14 on Fox. Updated at 6 p.m. ET to include full recap.<\/p>\n

Todd and Julie Chrisley, who were fully pardoned by Donald Trump last year after the reality stars were convicted of tax evasion and bank fraud, were revealed on Wednesday as the celebrities under the Croissant costume on Fox\u2019s \u201cThe Masked Singer.\u201d And later, comedian Tiffany Haddish was unmasked as the Le Who Who.<\/p>\n

More from Variety<\/p>\n

The Croissants were actually eliminated at the end of the season premiere episode last week, but the show ended on a cliffhanger. Panelist Jenny McCarthy-Wahlberg was right, guessing the Chrisleys, while Robin Thicke said it was Snooki and the Situation from \u201cJersey Shore,\u201d Ken Jeong guessed Tim McGraw and Faith Hill and Rita Ora went with Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag.<\/p>\n

Later, Le Who Who received the fewest votes among this week\u2019s contestants. Ora got it right with Tiffany Haddish. Thicke thought it was Keke Palmer, McCarthy-Wahlberg went with Leslie Jones and Jeong guessed Wanda Sykes.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the show that I always wanted to be on,\u201d Haddish told Variety. \u201cWell, I\u2019ve always wanted to be on \u2018Dancing With the Stars\u2019, but they said my career isn\u2019t where it needs to be. So when I guess where it needs to be, I get to be on there! I know I\u2019d dominate on \u2018Dancing With the Stars\u2019 because I\u2019m a dancing machine.\u201d<\/p>\n

Haddish credited her high school years as a mascot for helping her \u201cMasked Singer\u201d performance. \u201cBack in the 1900s I was the school mascot, and I used to have to wear mascot uniform,\u201d she said. \u201cMy uniform back then was nowhere near as encompassing as the uniform that I wore this time as being La Who Who. But it was a great reminder. It was like the muscle memory for me, and it made me feel young again, and also very sweaty.\u201d<\/p>\n

The \u201cFear Night\u201d episode is a tie-in with Fox\u2019s new \u201cFear Factor: House of Fear,\u201d which premieres right after \u201cMasked Singer\u201d on Wednesday. Host Johnny Knoxville was a guest on this week\u2019s episode.<\/p>\n

Moving on to the next round: High Voltage, Calla Lily, Owl and Eggplant. They join Galaxy Girl, Pugcasso, Scarab, Stingray, Cat Witch, Handyman, Queen Corgi, and Snow Cone from last week.<\/p>\n

Tiffany Haddish as Le Who Who, Todd and Julie Chrisley as Croissants and David \u201cBig Papi\u201d Ortiz as Googly Eyes are the celebrities unmasked so far on \u201cThe Masked Singer\u201d Season 14.<\/p>\n

Back for Season 14 are host Nick Cannon, alongside panelists McCarthy Wahlberg, Jeong, Ora and Thicke.<\/p>\n

New this season is \u201cAmerica\u2019s Insider,\u201d in which singer, dancer and social media personality Kylie Cantrall will share behind-the-scenes hints and clues for viewers. The twist: Cantrall is in costume, but will unmask for viewers \u2014 so the audience knows who she is, but the panelists don\u2019t.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Masked Singer\u201d Season 14 themed episodes include a tribute to \u201cStar Trek,\u201d the \u201890s comedy \u201cClueless,\u201d the comic franchise \u201cTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles\u201d and the blockbuster \u201cTwilight Saga\u201d films. Also Fox\u2019s new \u201cFear Factor\u201d reboot will feature host Johnny Knoxville in a \u201cFear Factor: House of Fear Night,\u201d and an \u201cOzzfest Night\u201d honors late rocker Ozzy Osbourne, including a special tribute by \u201cMasked Singer\u201d alum Kelly Osbourne (Season 2\u2019s Ladybug) saluting her father\u2019s musical influence.<\/p>\n

The 18 Masked contestants in Season 14 include Eggplant, Pugcasso, Queen Corgi, the Croissants, Owl, 14 Karat Carrot, Snow Cone, Galaxy Girl, High Voltage, Googly Eyes, Scarab, Handyman, Crane, Le Who Who, Pangolin, Stingray, Cat Witch and Calla Lily.<\/p>\n

Here were the performances on Wednesday\u2019s two-hour premiere episode.<\/p>\n

\"\"Le Who Who<\/p>\n

Song: \u201cOne Way or Another,\u201d by Blondie<\/p>\n

Johnny Knoxville clue: Snakes in a box. \u201cEGOT loading 50%.\u201d \u201cEGOT, that\u2019s just a fancy word for doing it all. And I\u2019m halfway there.\u201d<\/p>\n

Panel guesses: Leslie Jones, Wanda Sykes, Tiffany Haddish<\/p>\n

Le Who Who? voiceover: \u201cDid I scare you? You\u2019ve been guessing me for long enough. So here I am. I\u2019m a monster talent. Too big to fit in any little package. Over a billion at the box office. Late night legend? One of the most influential people on the planet. Still think I\u2019m cute? More like raw, bold, and sometimes a little naughty. So congrats on your rare fine. Because I am a collectible, baby.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"High Voltage<\/p>\n

Song: \u201cEverybody Wants to Rule the World,\u201d by Tears for Fears<\/p>\n

Panel guesses: Conan O\u2019Brien, Julian Edelman<\/p>\n

High Voltage voiceover: \u201cWhen I first began my career, the idea of blending in was my biggest fear. I was always more interested in being a leader in my field. Sometimes you gotta get a little crazy to draw a lot of attention. So I listened to my gut and billions took notice. Suddenly, people were plugged in. I\u2019ve been called a patriot, a revolutionary, changing the fabric of American culture. And my Masked Singer mission is taking home that trophy.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"Calla Lily<\/p>\n

Song: \u201cFight Song,\u201d by Rachel Platten<\/p>\n

Panel guesses: Selma Blair, Christina Applegate<\/p>\n

Calla Lily voiceover: \u201cLilies represent life\u2019s beauty. The happy and the sad. I was recently reminded how precious it all is. The doctors didn\u2019t catch it at first, but I knew something was wrong. I pushed back and needed answers. When they told me the diagnosis, my world stopped. But then I thought about my children. I chose to face my fears and fight. And it seems to be working. I still have good days and bad ones. But when this opportunity popped up, I jumped at it. I\u2019m nervous but I\u2019m present. Tonight I\u2019m ready to show my kids what we do. Keep loving without any fear.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"Owl<\/p>\n

Johnny Knoxville clue: African giant millipedes. \u201cGoat.\u201d<\/p>\n

Panel guesses: Matthew McConaughey, Billy Bob Thornton<\/p>\n

Owl voiceover: \u201cGather round, let me tell you my spooky tale. When I took flight, you couldn\u2019t go anywhere without hearing my name. Folks even started following my look. Imagine that. But then there were also the comments. My biggest fear became people laughing at me, and not with me. Terrifying, right?\u00a0 But I didn\u2019t listen. Instead, I focused on me. On family. Eventually, life gave me the chance to do something so big, those haters were all eating their words. So, if folks are poking fun behind your back, just give them the bird and do your thing.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"Eggplant<\/p>\n

Song: \u201cRocket Man,\u201d by Elton John<\/p>\n

I have five decades\u2019 worth of experience playing in many fields. I stand up for the people. I represent the rock stars, ship captains and a whole lot of lovers. When it comes to connections, I\u2019ve schmoozed with everybody. Jason Bateman, Jack Nicholson, Clint Eastwood. They\u2019d all endorse me. So cast your ballot and join me. Together we\u2019ll shoot for the stars.\u201d<\/p>\n
