This was closely followed by a performance from Turtle, who rendered an emotional cover of Lewis Capaldi's "Before You Go."

Burruss, who appeared on the show under the name "Night Angel," closed the evening with a stellar performance of Tina Turner's "River Deep, Mountain High."

By the end of the show, Frog was revealed to be Bow Wow, which many had earlier predicted while Turtle was revealed to be Jesse Mccarthy.

In an EW interview, Kandi admitted to having a lot of self-doubt during her time on the show. Even though it had been formerly predicted that she would win, Burruss never really believed.

Since "The Masked Singer" was pre-recorded earlier this year, Kandi's victory has been known to her for quite some time. And like many other people, the singer has been in quarantine with her family.
