The Masked Singer's latest shocking reveal is sure to have you howling.
On the singing competition series' Oct. 25 episode, Hawk received the least amount of votes and was sent home. Prior to his elimination, the mystery celebrity gave the viewers and judges a very personal clue about his identity.
"Not too long ago, someone close to me lost her battle with cancer," Hawk shared. "She was my support system and my best friend. After she passed, nothing seemed to matter. I sunk into a deep well of loneliness and depression. I realized she wouldn't want me to live my life this way, so I finally opened up about my feelings and got help."
Despite the devastating loss, Hawk shared words of hope for those going through similar tragedies.
"I've learned that, while the pain will never go away, it lessens," he continued. "And now I hope to inspire others that no matter how hard things may get, there's always a way to find the light again."
After his performance of The Police's "Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic," the star shared one final hint. "I was a good student," Hawk said, "or at least you saw me on TV pretending to be."
Unfortunately, Hawk landed in the bottom two with Tiki and was ultimately eliminated. Based on his previous school clue, three of the four judges guessed teen heartthrobs with Robin Thicke picking Ryan Phillippe, Jenny McCarthy choosing Chad Michael Murray and Ken Jeong deciding on Cole Sprouse. However, Nicole Scherzinger thought he was a singer and picked Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong.
So who was behind the Hawk mask? It was Teen Wolf star Tyler Posey, who lost his mother Cyndi Garcia Posey to cancer in 2014.
"I was very flattered that you thought that I sounded like Billie Joe Armstrong," Tyler told Nicole. "I really appreciate it. That means a lot coming from you guys."
The actor noted it was a "pleasure" to join the cast but was hoping to go further in the competition.
"I love performing as they have said, and I just wanted to get a chance to do this," Tyler said. "I'm also a little competitive, so I'm also a little hurt. But it's OK—the Hawk forgives."
