Who Won ‘The Masked Singer’ 2025? See The Stars Unmasked In The Finale

In The Masked Singer 2025 finale, only four contestants made it to the final episode with hopes of being crowned the winner: Pearl, Boogie Woogie, Mad Scientist, and Coral.

The final episode of Season 13, which aired on May 7, began with judge Rita Ora performing a cover of Chappell Roan’s anthem “Pink Pony Club,” with finalists Boogie Woogie, Coral, Mad Scientist Monster and Pearl also joining in.

After each finalist sang, the studio audience and juding panel (consisting of Ora, Ken Jeong, Jenny McCarthy and Robin Thicke) voted for their favorite performance. The two contestants with the fewest votes were unmasked, while the remaining two performed once more before a winner was announced.

Keep reading to find out who won The Masked Singer 2025 and the identities of the three other finalists.

Who Won The Masked Singer 2025?

Pearl was crowned the winner of The Masked Singer Season 13 and was revealed to be country singer Gretchen Wilson in the finale.

One major clue to the singer’s identity came when she showed off a pair of sparkly pants gifted to her by Dolly Parton. “It’s a pair of pants for the record books,” Pearl said. “Not only did my idol Dolly Parton give them to me, but I also got to perform with her while I was wearing them.”

While names like Faith Hill, Kacey Musgraves, Madonna and Shaina Twain were floated around as possible identities for Pearl, ultimately, only Thicke guessed correctly.

“I am floored,” the country singer said finding out she’d won. “I almost hit the floor.”

Before her her identity was unmasked, Pearl spoke in her clue package about her laid-back, unapologetic personality and the challenges she faced at the start of her career.

“Every time I’ve put on this Pearl costume I think it’s so strange that I pulled off being this bejeweled princess,” she explained. “It’s so unlike me. I’d say the hoodie and sweatpants is more in line with who I am. What can I say? I’m gritty, raw, unapologetic. I’ve always been that way. And a lot of times, especially when I was first starting out, it stood in the way of my success.”

Wilson also recalled one moment early in her career when, during a performane for a record exec, she thought he wrote down “no,” when he’d actually written down “now” – and wanted to sign her then and there. “After all these years, I think people still don’t know what I’m capable of until now,” Pearl added.

In the finale, Pearl sang “Black Horse and the Cherry Tree” by KT Tunstall, earning praise from Jeong, who called the contestant “the Meryl Streep of Masked Singer.” Her second cover was “I’ll Stand by You” by The Pretenders.

During the show, host Nick Cannon announced that each finalist would receive a phone call from a loved one after their performance. Pearl’s call came from her daughter, who told her “how unbelievably proud I am of you,” bringing Pearl to tears.

Who Else Was Unmasked in The Masked Singer Season 13 Finale?

Mad Scientist Monster (Fourth Place)

Mad Scientist Monster chose to sing a cover Sugarland’s “Stay,” which Thicke called the “best vocal of the season.” He also received a heartfelt ring from his parents, who expressed their support. “You’ve done a great job doing something totally different and wish you the best as you go forward and want you to go ahead and knock this thing out of the park and win it,” his dad said.

Ahead of his big reveal, the contestant shared his love for the outdoors. “I grew up on and near the waters and I love fishing with my dad still to this day.”

While Billy Ray Cyrus and Sam Hunt came up as potential names, Mad Scientist Monster was revealed to be Florida Georgia Line’s Brian Kelley.

Coral (Third Place)

Coral delivered a rendition of Audrey Hepburn’s classic “Moon River” and received an supportive call from her dad. “No matter what happens tonight, you really already won,” he told her. “I’m just so incredibly proud of you. Watching you on stage, I cannot help but remember that young girl singing and dancing to Broadway songs in our living room thinking that maybe her big dreams are possible.”

While the judges guessed names like Hilary Duff, Selena Gomez, Hailee Steinfeld or Rachel Zegler, Coral turned out to be Disney Channel and Zombies star Meg Donnelly.

Boogie Woogie (Second Place)

Boogie Woogie performed George Michael’s “Freedom! 90,” with McCarthy telling him he “brought the house down.” Meanwhile, his phone call was from one of his daughters. “Daddy, you need to win! You’re doing such a good job,” she told him. Boogie Woogie said that he wanted to show his kids that “positivity and sincerity can win.”

As the second finalist, he returned to the stage to sing Lewis Capaldi’s “Love the Hell Out of You.” While the panel tossed names like Darren Criss, Andy Samberg or Ryan Tedder, Boogie Woogie turned out to be none other than “Honey, I’m Good” singer-songwriter Andy Grammer.
