Performs as a 'Busty' Female Cow to Honor His Mother and Throw Off Judges
- Three-time Grammy winner NE-YO won season 10 of The Masked Singer, performing as a 'busty' female cow, a choice made to throw off the judges who he has personal relationships with.
- NE-YO beat out fellow finalists Donut (John Schneider), Gazelle (Janel Parrish) and Sea Queen (Macy Gray) in the finale.
- John Schneider, who performed as Donut, used his time on the show to honor his late wife and said the experience helped him heal.
- NE-YO performed Janet Jackson’s “Rhythm Nation” and Rihanna’s “Take a Bow” in the finale, songs that were slightly outside of his usual style.
- NE-YO dedicated his win to his mother, crediting her for his success and stating that he learned the strength of a woman from growing up in a house full of women.
