The Masked Singer: Billy Bush reveals identity after performing as Sir Lion and stumping the panel on Fox show
Billy Bush revealed his identity after appearing as Sir Lion on Wednesday’s episode of The Masked Singer on Fox.
The 52-year-old TV presenter was exposed after beating the panel during season 11’s TV Theme Night episode, which featured Group C competitors Clock, Poodle Moth and Lizard.
Sir Lion entered the show as a Wild Card competitor and sang “Love and Marriage,” the theme song to the Fox show “Married…with Children.”
Lizard after performing ‘Scooby-Doo, Where Are You?’ finished in the bottom two with Sir Lion and they faced each other in a Smackdown to the theme song of The Masked Singer Who Are You by the English rock band The Who.
The panel of Robin Thicke, Jenny McCarthy, Ken Jeong and Rita Ora chose Lizard as the winner and Sir Lion had to reveal his identity.

Presenter Nick Cannon, 43, asked the panellists for their final assessments before Sir Lion unmasked.
Robin, 47, guessed it was CNN anchor Anderson Cooper, while Ken, 54, ultimately settled on Ryan Seacrest.
Jenny, 51, said she believed it was NBC host Seth Meyers, while British singer Rita, 33, suspected it was Bravo host Andy Cohen.
‘My husband! Radio and TV presenter Billy Bush!’ Nick exclaimed as Billy removed his mask.
‘Not really! Billy!,” Jenny shouted.
“I didn’t expect that,” said Jill Whelan, 57, star of The Love Boat, who was sitting in the VIP section after giving a clue earlier.
Jenny told Billy she had no idea he could sing.
“I’m not a great singer,” said Billy, who lost his job as an anchor on NBC’s Today after the infamous p****gate scandal with Donald Trump first emerged in 2016.

‘Not really! Billy!,” Jenny McCarthy shouted
“You’re a great singer,” Jenny assured him.
“If you can’t get ’em with the lips, get ’em with the hips. I was trying to be a little distracting,” Billy joked as he showed off his dance moves.
Nick asked Billy if he had any final words for the viewers.
“If you’ve never done anything that’s a little scary, like this scary, then I’m shaking behind that. Say yes and do it!’ said Billy.
Billy said he was having a ‘ball’ and then treated the crowd to a new rendition of Love And Marriage with his mask off.
Bush’s relative was fired from Today in 2016 after an Access Hollywood recording surfaced in 2005 of him and 77-year-old presidential candidate Donald Trump having an obscene conversation.
Trump boasted that his fame allowed him to ‘grab women by the p***y’, as Billy laughed along with him.
The episode opened with the panelists wearing Gilligan’s Island costumes as they performed the theme song “The Ballad of Gilligan’s Isle” together.
