Ladies and gentlemen,
dr. Ken jeong.
Thank you! Thank you!
Good evening,
and welcome to america's
brand-new guessing
game "I can see your voice"!
Helping tonight's contestants
weed out the bad singers
throughout this investigation is our
glamorous panel of celebrity detectives.
Yeah!
And now let's meet
tonight's contestant.
Hoping to take home $100,000,
shannon from chandler, arizona!
- How are you doing, shannon? Doing good?
- I'm doing good.
I'm excited to be here,
it's really exciting, and...
I don't know, I'm excited,
so I don't have any
other adjectives right now.
- Tell us about yourself.
- I recently moved from
denver, colorado,
to chandler, arizona.
I do medical records processing,
so...
- You make data-driven decisions.
- Mm-hmm.
- That is shannon from chandler, arizona.
- You got me, baby.
I got you,
baby. What would you do with all that cash?
Well,
first I'd go back to school,
get my certification for medical billing
and coding and do that, you know?
- Oh, that is huge. That is awesome.
- See?
Why is it so important for
you to get back to school?
I think that doing those steps
and completing what I started
- would just be really good.
- Ah!
Well, honestly, everyone here
on this stage is pulling for you
- to win that money. - Yes!
Waiting in the shadows
are six secret voices
all claiming to be
incredible singers.
However,
some of them are fakers with voices so bad
that your ears will
hate you forever,
and that is a medical fact.
But pay attention.
The good singers
will be telling the truth,
but the bad singers could
be lying about anything.
You have to find and
eliminate the bad singers
who are trying to fool you.
So let's get the
investigation going
and reveal those secret voices.
( music playing )
number one is the stylist!
This fashion maven's
first single drops this year.
- He's got a nice, confident hold on the microphone.
- I felt that.
Number two,
it's the football player.
This former linebacker played with
his punk band at the vans warped tour.
How is it that you're in a punk band,
but you don't have any tattoos?
Ken: Number three,
it's the golfer.
The golfing fanatic was the lead
singer on the "dirty dancing" tour.
I believe tiger woods
can out-sing this guy.
Number four, the mathlete.
She's won national championships
in both mathematics
and show choir.
Adrienne: I think she's
gonna be the shocker.
She's gonna have
an incredible voice.
Number five, the counselor.
Her voice serenaded simon cowell
at his 60th birthday.
Number six,
it's the rock climber!
She sang on a family cruise line as elsa,
ariel, and rapunzel.
A big voice is gonna come out of that body,
I feel like it.
- Let's learn how to play the game.
- Okie doke.
Ken: There are six secret
voices up on that stage,
but you'll never know
exactly how many good
and how many bad
singers there will be.
Your job is to use clues to
eliminate the bad singers.
For each one you eliminate,
you will earn $10,000.
By the end of the show,
you want to have eliminated
all of the bad singers so
that the last one standing
is a good singer. Why?
Because if they're
a good singer,
you could win $100,000. Yeah!
- Point in the air! Point in the air!
- I switched it up.
- I switched it up.
- Let's get into the investigation
with our first three-way
lip sync challenge.
All right.
Now, shannon,
to win $10,000 on this round,
you want to find a bad singer.
And just so you know,
all of our good singers
will be lip-syncing
to their own voices.
But pay attention,
because all of the bad singers
will be lip-syncing to
someone else's lovely voice.
See if you can
tell which is which.
All right, guys,
lip sync challenge number one,
singing "I can't help myself,"
it's stylist,
football player,
and golfer.
- Cheryl: Oh, hey, hey.
- Oh, he's got moves.
Ah, okay.
♪ Ooh, sugar pie, honey bunch ♪
♪ you know that I love you
♪ I can't help myself
♪ I love you and nobody else ♪
okay, all right.
♪ When you snap your
finger or wink your eye ♪

- stage presence there, I see it.
- Oh!
- Okay.
- All right! Lip sync challenge!
Shout out to the stylist,
football player, and golfer.
Shannon, what do you think?
I don't know!
Well, fortunately you get some help
from our panel of celebrity detectives.
- Help me! - Panel. Kelly?
Okay. Golfer, the reason
why I think golfer is not a singer
is because a trained singer,
no offense, ken,
doesn't double
fist the mic like that.
- What?
- His mic technique was so weird, you know?
- That's true.
- I actually am sold on the golfer after seeing that.
- One, because I felt like he was...
- ken: Why?
- Really?
- Well, for one, that voice just seems to fit him to me.
And he was so at home and
so comfortable on the stage.
I do think he is a good singer.
The stylist is a bad
singer. That's my take.
Seemed a little too posh. A
little almost too good to be true.
- Hmm.
- I absolutely believe that the stylist is a good singer.
I like to pay attention to how they're
getting the sound that comes out
- in the vocal that we're hearing.
- Mm-hmm.
And in one of the parts he said,
♪ nobody else
- yeah.
- And the vocal said ♪ nobody else
and his mouth said
exactly what I just did.
Football player,
I believe he can sing,
and I believe he's a performer
because when the
camera went past him,
he did something
that only a singer does.
He found that
camera and worked it.
I just saw he has
tattoos on his arm.
Cheryl: I noticed that, too.
He's definitely...
He's got a spark,
but I don't think he's
a good singer. Yeah.
- Do we both agree that golfer cannot sing?
- Yeah, probably.
- Cheryl: I don't think the golfer is a good singer.
- Arsenio: Okay.
- He can probably sing...
- am I the only one that feels the golfer is a singer?
- All: Yes.
- All signs point to the stylist being a great singer,
but for some reason,
I just... I cannot buy it for some reason.
- The golfer, I feel like is.
- A lot of split decisions here.
- Yeah.
- But, shannon, it's time for you to make a full decision.
- Ooh! - In front of you,
you will see each secret
voice's name and number,
so tap on the one that
you would like to eliminate,
and then lock it in.
So, with the stylist,
like adrienne was saying,
the runs that he was doing,
he has that down pat.
I do believe that
he is a good singer.
- Mm. - Football player,
am I getting punk rock vibes
I guess is really the question.
No, I guess is the answer.
I'm not. I don't think
that he's a good singer.
But mr. Golfer,
his mic holding was a little awkward.
No offense,
but I don't think that's his voice.
I'm torn between those two.
I am going to go
with mr. Golfer.
I don't believe that he has
the stage presence of a singer,
and I'm locking it in!
Whoo, let's see! Oh,
my god! I'm so nervous now.
Okay, stylist, football player,
you can return to your podium.
You are staying in the game.
Golfer,
get ready because you're about to show us
- what you've been hiding.
- Omg, guys.
Shannon, have you identified a
bad singer and made a cool $10,000?
- Yeah!
- Or a good singer and banked nothing?
- No.
- Now remember, bad is good, good is bad.
It's time to find out. Golfer,
let's...
All: See your voice!
- Whoo!
- And please let it be bad.
They brought out a whole piano.
Come on, golfer.
Oh, jesus.
Don't be a singer.
( groans )
oh, no! He's adjusting the mic.
( music playing )
country?
No, he can't sing.
Oh, my god,
I'm so scared right now.
Please be terrible.
♪ Every time our eyes meet

- oh. - Wow!
- Golfer, that was amazing.
- Thank you very much.
I couldn't help but to enjoy it,
like...
- Yeah.
- Are you really a golfer?
I love to play golf.
And then you were singing
on the "dirty dancing" tour?
I did. I performed in the "dirty
dancing" tour european edition... 1988.
- Wow!
- Give it up for the golfer.
It's okay,
shannon. It is still early.
After the break,
we'll be getting a closer look
at our next batch
of secret voices,
hopefully eliminating
some bad ones
and possibly earning
shannon a hundred grand.
- Whoo! - Get involved.
This is "I can see your voice,"
only on fox.
You know what? My first instinct was right,
and I should've...
I thought for sure he
was a terrible singer.
Welcome back to "I
can see your voice,"
the only show where
spotting terrible talent
can make you really rich.
Shannon, before the break,
you eliminated the golfer
and missed out on $10,000.
Now remember, your goal
is to find as many
bad singers as you can
because if the last
one standing is good,
you could win $100,000.
- Yeah. - Hit it.
It is time for our second
lip sync challenge.
Performing "lady marmalade,"
please give it up
for mathlete,
counselor,
- and rock climber. - Whoa!
( music playing )
oh, my god, I love this song.
♪ He met marmalade
down at old moulin rouge ♪
♪ strutting her
stuff on the street ♪
♪ she said, "gitchi,
gitchi, ya ya da da ♪
♪ gitchi, gitchi, ya ya here" ♪
no.
♪ Creole lady marmalade

♪ Voulez-vous

- That's her. - ♪ Creole lady
♪ marmalade
- oh!
- Give it up for the mathlete,
counselor, and rock climber.
Shannon, what do you think?
They all did so
good. I don't know.
I have no idea. I have no idea.
- You want us to help you?
- Yes! I was like...
The rock climber,
that is her voice.
- Yeah, yeah. - I can see it,
and I believe that she
is 100% a good singer.
I'm with adrienne. I thought
that was the next ariana grande.
She looked like she
could sing her face off.
- I don't know.
- It's tough because everybody feels so certain about her.
But she was so good in her lip
sync that it makes me doubt her.
- Arsenio: No. Don't do that. Don't do that to yourself.
- Ken: Really?
- That's how I feel.
- There were a couple of times I felt like the rock climber,
that the lick didn't
quite match her mouth.
But the counselor has got
me all kinds of messed up.
- Arsenio: Yeah, yeah.
- She looks the part.
She takes the stage
with such confidence,
and I just subscribe to this,
is it too obvious again.
- So, nick, you're saying bad singer?
- I don't know why,
I think the counselor's
a bad singer.
You know what throws
me off about the counselor?
- The whole simon cowell's birthday party.
- Kelly: Yeah.
So I was on a date at the restaurant
where he had his 60th birthday.
- Whoa.
- Adrienne: Was she there?
I don't recall there being any
entertainment other than a dj.
- Oh! - Ken: All right.
Kelly: So, I don't know.
Mathlete's the one that is
making me think it's not real.
When she did certain
moves like moving her arm up,
- all of that seemed very, like, stiff...
- unnatural.
- Unnatural to her.
- Nick: As a singer, you do actually...
When you shoot music videos and stuff,
you do actually lip sync.
And I think one of the
main things that you learn
is not to be so big
with the lip sync.
But not all singers look necessarily
comfortable or great while they're doing it.
- You could be a great singer...
- what are you talking about, nick lachey?
You always look
good no matter what.
What? No. 'cause she looked
not necessarily comfortable
doesn't mean that she's...
You know what I mean?
'cause look at the golfer.
That's what happened.
- Yeah.
- Ken: All right. Good job, panel.
Shannon, what do you think?
Honestly, the rock climber,
I think that that was too much.
- Oh.
- I think she was over the top.
She did a lot, and I think that
they're just trying to mess with me.
And as far as the mathlete,
she was kind of stiff in the beginning,
but I think she's a good singer,
honestly.
- Okay.
- What about the counselor?
Counselor, I am iffy on her.
"iffy on her" sounds
like a good album title.
- Oh, my god. - See?
My mixtape "iffy on her" is
dropping next Tuesday, guys.
Honestly, as simon cowell,
you listen to
people sing all day.
The last thing I would want at
my birthday is somebody singing.
Shannon,
it's time to make a decision.
All right, I'm gonna go with...
Counselor.
Should I do rock climber?
- ( groans ) - oh.
- Oh. - Okay, all right.
All right, I'm actually going
to change it to counselor.
I'm gonna... I'm gonna
stick with counselor.
I feel like she's a bad singer
because I think she was
just... Just doing too much
and she was just...
It didn't match for me,
honestly.
And I'm locking it in.
Whoo! Whoo! Whoo!
You got the sherlock holmes
posse over here confused.
- Yeah.
- Counselor, time to take the stage of truth.
Mathlete, rock climber,
please return to your podium.
Have you found a bad singer
and banked yourself $10,000?
- Yeah. - Or is it a good singer
meaning you win a
big bag of nothing?
- No. - Counselor, let's...
All: See your voice!

- I am a vocational counselor.
- Oh. - But I did not sing
at simon cowell's
60th birthday party.
Please give it up
for the counselor.
- Thank you, thank you.
- Shannon, you've eliminated
one good singer and
now one bad singer,
bringing your total to $10,000.
( cheers and applause )
that's some $10,000 dancing.
Ooh,
yeah. Wait till you see that 100,000.
- Yeah! - Yeah.
You still have four
remaining secret voices
left to choose from.
Ready to carry on?
- Yeah. - Okay, let's do it...
After the break.
Keep it locked in right here,
america,
to "I can see your voice."
announcer: Coming up, more clues
are revealed with video evidence...
- I told you!
- ...A secret studio session...
- ( screeching ) -
...And an interrogation.
- In three, two, one. - Wow.
Welcome back to "I
can see your voice,"
the show which asks whether
you can tell good singers
from bad without
ever hearing them sing.
Shannon, you still have four remaining
secret voices left to choose from.
Remember, your goal is to eliminate
as many bad singers as you can
because if the last one
standing is a good singer,
you could win $100,000.
Look at that. It's
raining! It is raining.
In order to reveal more clues
about our remaining
secret voices,
I, ken jeong,
have stolen their phones,
but you only get
to look inside one.
Let's play unlock my life!
So, shannon,
what you will see is an exclusive video
from inside the secret voice's
phone revealing vital pieces
of personal information
about themselves,
all with their voice
slightly altered.
Who do you want to
hear from and why?
Hmm. I am good with
mathlete and rock climber.
I am kind of stuck between
stylist and the football player
because there's so many up in
the air questions about both of them.
I would like to unlock
the football player's life.
Okay, america,
time to strap on your sleuthing hats
and take note of any clues.
Remember, the good singers
will be telling the truth,
but the bad singers
will be trying to trick you.
- Mm. - Let's find out what
football player is all about.
( music playing )
( distorted )
growing up in iowa,
all my friends played sports.
But I knew I always
wanted to sing.
I felt the pressure to
play sports instead.
I see earrings. Do
you see earrings?
In fourth grade,
I started playing tackle football.
All the other kids my
age were playing flag.
- Do I see a nose piercing?
- Oh!
I was so lucky to
have my brother,
who shares the
same love of music.
We were in a punk band together.
I'm not buying it
for some reason.
Now,
I work the open mic circuit,
singing every chance I get.
Was he in any of those pictures?
The ones that showed somebody performing,
he kind of had his head down.
- Oh, you guys are tricky.
- And there were a lot
of tattoos in that last picture,
but was that him?
Even when he was holding the guitar,
it seemed like a prop.
It didn't seem like...
Can I tell you what it is
throwing me the most?
The pictures that they were
showing were not of punk bands.
That looked way more
ozzfest than warped tour.
Cheryl: Oh!
I've been swayed.
I'm on the kelly train.
- Cheryl: Same.
- I'm on the choo-choo.
And watch me be wrong.
- Shannon, it's time to make a decision.
- All right.
- Ooh.
- Whose voice do you see as being bad?
Are you eliminating
football player?
Or do you want to eliminate
one of the other three?
- Final decision. - All right,
I'm going to eliminate
football player.
I think he's a bad singer, I do,
because he just didn't
give me the punk rock vibe.
Locking it!
So, football player, let's...
All: See your voice!
Kelly,
they brought a whole amp out.
I'm really sorry if I
messed this up for you.
- Cheryl: He's plugging in.
- Ah.
- Be bad, be bad.
- Please be bad.

- nick: Yeah! - Ken: Wow!
- Whoo!
- You are a meathead of a mess,
but you won shannon $10,000,
- bringing her total to $20,000.
- Whoo!
Football player,
was your brother in a punk band?
Did you guys start a
punk band together?
Uh, yeah, we were in punk
and hardcore bands growing up.
What did you do in the band? Like,
lay cable or something?
I didn't sing,
but I did play drums.
Dude. Give it up for
the football player.
Great job. Don't go anywhere.
This is "I can see your voice."
welcome back to "I
can see your voice."
shannon, you have now eliminated
one good singer
and two bad singers,
leaving you with three remaining
secret voices to choose from...
Stylist, mathlete,
and rock climber.
None of us know how many good
and how many bad
singers there are,
so you've still got
to tread carefully
if you're going to end
up with a good singer
at the end and
win that $100,000.
Shannon, I'll tell you what,
I'm just gonna let you
hear one of them sing.
- That's what I'm gonna do. Well, kind of.
- All right.
It's time for secret studio.
Under total and
complete secrecy,
all of our secret voices
have prerecorded
their very own demo
tape in our secret studio,
only their voices have been
altered by our world famous
vocal manipulation device.
So, shannon,
who would you like to see
go into the secret studio?
And you can only pick one.
I am really torn between
mathlete and rock climber.
So I am going to choose...
Mathlete to do
the secret studio.
- Ken: Okay.
- Because I feel like the way she was holding the mic
was kind of more
jokey than serious.
Shannon, panel,
while the pitch of their
voices will be altered,
there will still be plenty of clues
to look out for, so pay attention.
It's mathlete.
( high-pitched
distorted singing )
what is that?
It's so hard to tell
because it's been altered,
but it didn't sound to me, like,
even with the altered voice,
- the pitch went where it was supposed to go.
- That's what I was gonna say.
- Yeah, yeah.
- Well, when I was watching her sing,
it didn't feel like she was
even trying to hit notes.
- It felt like you was just, you know...
- whatever.
♪ We got the beat,
we got the beat ♪
( squeaking ) ♪ we got the beat
- nice.
- Thanks. I can hit that part.
Um, but it didn't seem like
she was concentrating
too much on the song.
Shannon,
it's time to make a decision.
Whoo. Just got real.
Remember, you can eliminate
any of the three secret
voices still up there.
Shannon,
who do you think is a bad singer?
And remember,
bad is good, good is bad.
I think... I still like stylist.
His lip sync was on
point to the actual track
and I think that it
matched his voice.
Rock climber,
I'm still so iffy about you.
She just... I felt
like it was too much,
kind of how counselor did me.
But I just don't know
for sure about her.
I think that mathlete
is a bad singer,
and I'm locking it in.
- Whoo! - Whoo!
Shannon, if you got this
right and picked a bad singer,
- you'll pocket another $10,000.
- Yeah! Yeah!
- Dance to that. - Whoo!
Mathlete, let's...
All: See your voice!
Oh, my god. My heart. My heart.

That was literally truly
and mathematically awful,
which means we love you
because you won shannon $10,000,
bringing your total to $30,000.
- Whoo! - Wow, okay, so,
I had heard that you
hold a world record
for knowing the
largest numbers of pi.
3.1419...
- No. No. - Yes.
- You're already wrong.
- It's 3.14159...

- 1971693993. - More impressive!
- Cheryl: What just happened?
- Wow.
Okay, give it up for the
mathlete. She's right on that one.
( cheering )
all right,
we are down to our last two secret voices.
And shannon's next elimination
is the most important one yet.
Join us after the break.
This is "I can see your voice."
welcome back to "I
can see your voice,"
the show where
spotting terrible talent
can make you really rich.
Shannon,
you have now eliminated one good singer
- and three bad singers. - Whoo!
You only have two
secret voices remaining.
They could both be good,
they could both be bad,
or there could be one of each.
We just don't know,
which brings us to
our final challenge.
It's interrogation.
Shannon,
you're about to get the opportunity
to grill either one of our
remaining secret voices,
stylist or rock climber,
and hear their unaltered
voice for the first time.
You'll get 30 seconds to
ask them whatever you want,
but then you have to
eliminate one of them.
Who do you want to
interrogate and why?
This is a very hard decision
because I feel like stylist
kind of skated through
because I just automatically
assumed that he
had a good voice.
So I do kind of want to know
a little bit more about him.
But then on the other hand,
my panel likes rock climber.
I'm iffy about rock climber.
So that just makes me want
to know more about her as well.
So I'm gonna interrogate
the rock climber.
Ken: Okay, rock climber,
prepare yourself.
Your 30 seconds starts in three,
two, one, go.
What was your proudest
musical moment?
In college,
I was given a scholarship
by the composer of "wicked."
oh, okay.
How many jobs
have you had before?
Acting-wise? Or singing-wise,
you mean?
Several. I've been doing
it since I was a child.
What was on your
road trip playlist?
Lots of sara bareilles.
Describe your energy on stage.
- Oh, magical? - Ooh, whoa.
- Ken: Was that helpful?
- I think so.
- Kind of. - Panel?
After listening to her talk,
I picture her swinging
from the sides of cliffs
singing sara bareilles.
And it was something about the
way she confidently said "wicked."
- yeah.
- It was like she was proud of that.
Yes,
and it was very specific. The composer.
And she used "magical." yeah,
I was sold on magical.
- Yeah.
- So, panel, where does this leave the stylist?
I think maybe we
get rid of the stylist.
Ken: Why get rid of the stylist?
'cause we believe that
the rock climber is a star.
She's a good singer.
And remember,
bad is good, good is bad.
And, shannon,
if this secret voice is a bad singer,
you'll pocket another $10,000.
It is time to make a decision.
Who's it gonna be?
Stylist or rock climber?
I mean, from the beginning,
stylist has been my guy.
I think you got the vocals,
but then I don't know
because I don't know you.
I don't know anything about you.
But, honestly,
I have to go with my gut,
and I didn't like rock
climber from the beginning.
I've got to lock in rock climber.
I think she's a bad singer.
- Locking it in, baby. - Whoo!
That means stylist will be
going through to the finale.
No big deal or anything,
but you're about to duet
with nick scott lachey.
So get ready.
Rock climber, let's...
All: See your voice!
( music playing )
oh, my god.
She's gonna "sang."

Rock climber, that was maybe
one of the most beautiful voices
I've ever heard in my life,
which is why I'm extremely
heartbroken right now.
Shannon,
you've missed out on $10,000,
but your total is still s30,000.
Sorry.
So you do climb for the
amazing acoustics and...
I really do like
to sing out there.
- It's good acoustics.
- What made you decide to do the show?
It's similar to rock climbing.
I love a good challenge.
So I decided to do something
that scares me a little bit.
- Good for you.
- I love that. I love that.
Give it up for the rock climber!
( cheers and applause )
shannon,
you are down to our last secret voice.
And if you have
successfully eliminated
all of the bad singers
and stylist is a good singer,
you could be taking
home $100,000.
But first, you've got to make
one of the biggest
decisions of your life.
All of america is holding
their breath to find out...
- After this break. - Whew!
Don't go anywhere.
Welcome back to "I
can see your voice."
we're down to our last
secret voice... stylist.
- It's all coming down to this.
- Shannon, it's time for you
to make your final and
biggest decision of all.
- ( groans ) - all game long,
you've been trying to find
and eliminate the bad singers
so that a good singer
is left standing up there
to duet with nick lachey.
Now for the first
time in the game,
you're hoping stylist
is a good singer.
So here's the decision
you have to make.
You can either walk away
with the $30,000
guaranteed to go home
or you can play on
for one final round,
our grand finale.
And if stylist turns out
to be a good singer,
your winnings will
shoot up to $100,000.
Whoo!
Oh, my.
However, if you get it wrong
and stylist turns out
to be a bad singer,
you will go home with nothing.
Panel, all night long you've
been taking notes, collecting facts.
Do you think stylist is
a good or bad singer?
He did an incredible job
with the lip sync challenge,
and I just feel like we
have nothing to gamble on.
We don't know anything.
All we saw was the
lip sync challenge.
- You know what I mean?
- Kelly: Yeah, but for me,
from the very first time I
saw anything to do with him,
I felt like he was
a good singer.
So I would take the risk.
- Cheryl?
- He might just be a great performer
and not a great singer,
and it's hard to bet
everything on that.
That's a good point. Take the money,
honey.
- $30,000 is a lot of money.
- Don't gamble no more. Vegas is closed.
- Nick lachey?
- I really believe that in this moment,
you have to trust your gut.
Because this is your
$30,000 on the line
and you have to trust whatever that
is in there that's talking to you, so...
Okay, shannon,
which way are you leaning?
Oh, shoot.
I think I'm going to...
I'm gonna pass out.
Um, this is hard. So hard.
Oh, I'm gonna throw up.
I do believe that he can sing.
I'm going with my gut.
I am going to...
- Risk it all. - Wow.
And I'm locking it in.
What did I just do?
What did I just do?
So right now is
the moment of truth.
Nick, please go and join stylist
on the stage of truth
for the grand duet finale.
Oh, god. What did I just do?
Let's see if you
made the right choice.
Let's do this, stylist.
Singing "get ready,"
please get it going for
nick lachey and stylist.
Oh, god.

Thank you,

Thank you, adrienne houghton,
cheryl hines,
kelly osbourne, arsenio hall,
and nick lachey.
Thank you so much
for watching. Good night!
Oh, is this real?
it's time to take part
in the ultimate investigation.
This is "I can see your voice"!
Through a series of clues...
Lip sync challenge!
...And without ever
hearing them sing a note,
could you identify
bad singers...
♪ and even though you care
- ...From good singers?
- ( vocalizing )
whoo!
In a night of unforgettable
performances,
one contestant
attempts to win $100,000.
Okay, america,
keep your notepads ready
'cause anything and
everything might be a clue.
Helped by a team of
celebrity detectives...
I'm very good at this game.
...They must
examine the evidence
to identify the bad singers.
That mouth was doing too much.
- And in the end... - Yeah!
...It all comes down
to one big moment.
Helping tonight's
contestant are cheryl hines,
kelly osbourne,
adrienne houghton,
arsenio hall,
and music superstar nick lachey.
Get ready to play "I
can see your voice,"
where spotting terrible
talent can make you rich.
Ladies and gentlemen,
dr. Ken jeong.
Thank you! Thank you!
Good evening,
and welcome to america's
brand-new guessing
game "I can see your voice"!
Helping tonight's contestants
weed out the bad singers
throughout this investigation is our
glamorous panel of celebrity detectives.
Yeah!
And now let's meet
tonight's contestant.
Hoping to take home $100,000,
shannon from chandler, arizona!
- How are you doing, shannon? Doing good?
- I'm doing good.
I'm excited to be here,
it's really exciting, and...
I don't know, I'm excited,
so I don't have any
other adjectives right now.
- Tell us about yourself.
- I recently moved from
denver, colorado,
to chandler, arizona.
I do medical records processing,
so...
- You make data-driven decisions.
- Mm-hmm.
- That is shannon from chandler, arizona.
- You got me, baby.
I got you,
baby. What would you do with all that cash?
Well,
first I'd go back to school,
get my certification for medical billing
and coding and do that, you know?
- Oh, that is huge. That is awesome.
- See?
Why is it so important for
you to get back to school?
I think that doing those steps
and completing what I started
- would just be really good.
- Ah!
Well, honestly, everyone here
on this stage is pulling for you
- to win that money. - Yes!
Waiting in the shadows
are six secret voices
all claiming to be
incredible singers.
However,
some of them are fakers with voices so bad
that your ears will
hate you forever,
and that is a medical fact.
But pay attention.
The good singers
will be telling the truth,
but the bad singers could
be lying about anything.
You have to find and
eliminate the bad singers
who are trying to fool you.
So let's get the
investigation going
and reveal those secret voices.
( music playing )
number one is the stylist!
This fashion maven's
first single drops this year.
- He's got a nice, confident hold on the microphone.
- I felt that.
Number two,
it's the football player.
This former linebacker played with
his punk band at the vans warped tour.
How is it that you're in a punk band,
but you don't have any tattoos?
Ken: Number three,
it's the golfer.
The golfing fanatic was the lead
singer on the "dirty dancing" tour.
I believe tiger woods
can out-sing this guy.
Number four, the mathlete.
She's won national championships
in both mathematics
and show choir.
Adrienne: I think she's
gonna be the shocker.
She's gonna have
an incredible voice.
Number five, the counselor.
Her voice serenaded simon cowell
at his 60th birthday.
Number six,
it's the rock climber!
She sang on a family cruise line as elsa,
ariel, and rapunzel.
A big voice is gonna come out of that body,
I feel like it.
- Let's learn how to play the game.
- Okie doke.
Ken: There are six secret
voices up on that stage,
but you'll never know
exactly how many good
and how many bad
singers there will be.
Your job is to use clues to
eliminate the bad singers.
For each one you eliminate,
you will earn $10,000.
By the end of the show,
you want to have eliminated
all of the bad singers so
that the last one standing
is a good singer. Why?
Because if they're
a good singer,
you could win $100,000. Yeah!
- Point in the air! Point in the air!
- I switched it up.
- I switched it up.
- Let's get into the investigation
with our first three-way
lip sync challenge.
All right.
Now, shannon,
to win $10,000 on this round,
you want to find a bad singer.
And just so you know,
all of our good singers
will be lip-syncing
to their own voices.
But pay attention,
because all of the bad singers
will be lip-syncing to
someone else's lovely voice.
See if you can
tell which is which.
All right, guys,
lip sync challenge number one,
singing "I can't help myself,"
it's stylist,
football player,
and golfer.
- Cheryl: Oh, hey, hey.
- Oh, he's got moves.
Ah, okay.
♪ Ooh, sugar pie, honey bunch ♪
♪ you know that I love you
♪ I can't help myself
♪ I love you and nobody else ♪
okay, all right.
♪ When you snap your
finger or wink your eye ♪
- ♪ I come running to you - no.
♪ I'm tied to your
apron strings ♪
♪ and there's
nothing that I can do ♪
cheryl: Okay!
Uh-oh. Bring it, golfer.
♪ Wanna tell you
I don't love you ♪
♪ tell you that we're through ♪
♪ and I try
♪ every time I see your face ♪
♪ I get all choked up inside ♪
♪ ooh, sugar pie, honey bunch ♪
- stage presence there, I see it.
- Oh!
- Okay.
- All right! Lip sync challenge!
Shout out to the stylist,
football player, and golfer.
Shannon, what do you think?
I don't know!
Well, fortunately you get some help
from our panel of celebrity detectives.
- Help me! - Panel. Kelly?
Okay. Golfer, the reason
why I think golfer is not a singer
is because a trained singer,
no offense, ken,
doesn't double
fist the mic like that.
- What?
- His mic technique was so weird, you know?
- That's true.
- I actually am sold on the golfer after seeing that.
- One, because I felt like he was...
- ken: Why?
- Really?
- Well, for one, that voice just seems to fit him to me.
And he was so at home and
so comfortable on the stage.
I do think he is a good singer.
The stylist is a bad
singer. That's my take.
Seemed a little too posh. A
little almost too good to be true.
- Hmm.
- I absolutely believe that the stylist is a good singer.
I like to pay attention to how they're
getting the sound that comes out
- in the vocal that we're hearing.
- Mm-hmm.
And in one of the parts he said,
♪ nobody else
- yeah.
- And the vocal said ♪ nobody else
and his mouth said
exactly what I just did.
Football player,
I believe he can sing,
and I believe he's a performer
because when the
camera went past him,
he did something
that only a singer does.
He found that
camera and worked it.
I just saw he has
tattoos on his arm.
Cheryl: I noticed that, too.
He's definitely...
He's got a spark,
but I don't think he's
a good singer. Yeah.
- Do we both agree that golfer cannot sing?
- Yeah, probably.
- Cheryl: I don't think the golfer is a good singer.
- Arsenio: Okay.
- He can probably sing...
- am I the only one that feels the golfer is a singer?
- All: Yes.
- All signs point to the stylist being a great singer,
but for some reason,
I just... I cannot buy it for some reason.
- The golfer, I feel like is.
- A lot of split decisions here.
- Yeah.
- But, shannon, it's time for you to make a full decision.
- Ooh! - In front of you,
you will see each secret
voice's name and number,
so tap on the one that
you would like to eliminate,
and then lock it in.
So, with the stylist,
like adrienne was saying,
the runs that he was doing,
he has that down pat.
I do believe that
he is a good singer.
- Mm. - Football player,
am I getting punk rock vibes
I guess is really the question.
No, I guess is the answer.
I'm not. I don't think
that he's a good singer.
But mr. Golfer,
his mic holding was a little awkward.
No offense,
but I don't think that's his voice.
I'm torn between those two.
I am going to go
with mr. Golfer.
I don't believe that he has
the stage presence of a singer,
and I'm locking it in!
Whoo, let's see! Oh,
my god! I'm so nervous now.
Okay, stylist, football player,
you can return to your podium.
You are staying in the game.
Golfer,
get ready because you're about to show us
- what you've been hiding.
- Omg, guys.
Shannon, have you identified a
bad singer and made a cool $10,000?
- Yeah!
- Or a good singer and banked nothing?
- No.
- Now remember, bad is good, good is bad.
It's time to find out. Golfer,
let's...
All: See your voice!
- Whoo!
- And please let it be bad.
They brought out a whole piano.
Come on, golfer.
Oh, jesus.
Don't be a singer.
( groans )
oh, no! He's adjusting the mic.
( music playing )
country?
No, he can't sing.
Oh, my god,
I'm so scared right now.
Please be terrible.

- Thank you very much.
I couldn't help but to enjoy it,
like...
- Yeah.
- Are you really a golfer?
I love to play golf.
And then you were singing
on the "dirty dancing" tour?
I did. I performed in the "dirty
dancing" tour european edition... 1988.
- Wow!
- Give it up for the golfer.
It's okay,
shannon. It is still early.
After the break,
we'll be getting a closer look
at our next batch
of secret voices,
hopefully eliminating
some bad ones
and possibly earning
shannon a hundred grand.
- Whoo! - Get involved.
This is "I can see your voice,"
only on fox.
You know what? My first instinct was right,
and I should've...
I thought for sure he
was a terrible singer.
Welcome back to "I
can see your voice,"
the only show where
spotting terrible talent
can make you really rich.
Shannon, before the break,
you eliminated the golfer
and missed out on $10,000.
Now remember, your goal
is to find as many
bad singers as you can
because if the last
one standing is good,
you could win $100,000.
- Yeah. - Hit it.
It is time for our second
lip sync challenge.
Performing "lady marmalade,"
please give it up
for mathlete,
counselor,
- and rock climber. - Whoa!
( music playing )
oh, my god, I love this song.

- oh!
- Give it up for the mathlete,
counselor, and rock climber.
Shannon, what do you think?
They all did so
good. I don't know.
I have no idea. I have no idea.
- You want us to help you?
- Yes! I was like...
The rock climber,
that is her voice.
- Yeah, yeah. - I can see it,
and I believe that she
is 100% a good singer.
I'm with adrienne. I thought
that was the next ariana grande.
She looked like she
could sing her face off.
- I don't know.
- It's tough because everybody feels so certain about her.
But she was so good in her lip
sync that it makes me doubt her.
- Arsenio: No. Don't do that. Don't do that to yourself.
- Ken: Really?
- That's how I feel.
- There were a couple of times I felt like the rock climber,
that the lick didn't
quite match her mouth.
But the counselor has got
me all kinds of messed up.
- Arsenio: Yeah, yeah.
- She looks the part.
She takes the stage
with such confidence,
and I just subscribe to this,
is it too obvious again.
- So, nick, you're saying bad singer?
- I don't know why,
I think the counselor's
a bad singer.
You know what throws
me off about the counselor?
- The whole simon cowell's birthday party.
- Kelly: Yeah.
So I was on a date at the restaurant
where he had his 60th birthday.
- Whoa.
- Adrienne: Was she there?
I don't recall there being any
entertainment other than a dj.
- Oh! - Ken: All right.
Kelly: So, I don't know.
Mathlete's the one that is
making me think it's not real.
When she did certain
moves like moving her arm up,
- all of that seemed very, like, stiff...
- unnatural.
- Unnatural to her.
- Nick: As a singer, you do actually...
When you shoot music videos and stuff,
you do actually lip sync.
And I think one of the
main things that you learn
is not to be so big
with the lip sync.
But not all singers look necessarily
comfortable or great while they're doing it.
- You could be a great singer...
- what are you talking about, nick lachey?
You always look
good no matter what.
What? No. 'cause she looked
not necessarily comfortable
doesn't mean that she's...
You know what I mean?
'cause look at the golfer.
That's what happened.
- Yeah.
- Ken: All right. Good job, panel.
Shannon, what do you think?
Honestly, the rock climber,
I think that that was too much.
- Oh.
- I think she was over the top.
She did a lot, and I think that
they're just trying to mess with me.
And as far as the mathlete,
she was kind of stiff in the beginning,
but I think she's a good singer,
honestly.
- Okay.
- What about the counselor?
Counselor, I am iffy on her.
"iffy on her" sounds
like a good album title.
- Oh, my god. - See?
My mixtape "iffy on her" is
dropping next Tuesday, guys.
Honestly, as simon cowell,
you listen to
people sing all day.
The last thing I would want at
my birthday is somebody singing.
Shannon,
it's time to make a decision.
All right, I'm gonna go with...
Counselor.
Should I do rock climber?
- ( groans ) - oh.
- Oh. - Okay, all right.
All right, I'm actually going
to change it to counselor.
I'm gonna... I'm gonna
stick with counselor.
I feel like she's a bad singer
because I think she was
just... Just doing too much
and she was just...
It didn't match for me,
honestly.
And I'm locking it in.
Whoo! Whoo! Whoo!
You got the sherlock holmes
posse over here confused.
- Yeah.
- Counselor, time to take the stage of truth.
Mathlete, rock climber,
please return to your podium.
Have you found a bad singer
and banked yourself $10,000?
- Yeah. - Or is it a good singer
meaning you win a
big bag of nothing?
- No. - Counselor, let's...
All: See your voice!

at simon cowell's
60th birthday party.
Please give it up
for the counselor.
- Thank you, thank you.
- Shannon, you've eliminated
one good singer and
now one bad singer,
bringing your total to $10,000.
( cheers and applause )
that's some $10,000 dancing.
Ooh,
yeah. Wait till you see that 100,000.
- Yeah! - Yeah.
You still have four
remaining secret voices
left to choose from.
Ready to carry on?
- Yeah. - Okay, let's do it...
After the break.
Keep it locked in right here,
america,
to "I can see your voice."
announcer: Coming up, more clues
are revealed with video evidence...
- I told you!
- ...A secret studio session...
- ( screeching ) -
...And an interrogation.
- In three, two, one. - Wow.
Welcome back to "I
can see your voice,"
the show which asks whether
you can tell good singers
from bad without
ever hearing them sing.
Shannon, you still have four remaining
secret voices left to choose from.
Remember, your goal is to eliminate
as many bad singers as you can
because if the last one
standing is a good singer,
you could win $100,000.
Look at that. It's
raining! It is raining.
In order to reveal more clues
about our remaining
secret voices,
I, ken jeong,
have stolen their phones,
but you only get
to look inside one.
Let's play unlock my life!
So, shannon,
what you will see is an exclusive video
from inside the secret voice's
phone revealing vital pieces
of personal information
about themselves,
all with their voice
slightly altered.
Who do you want to
hear from and why?
Hmm. I am good with
mathlete and rock climber.
I am kind of stuck between
stylist and the football player
because there's so many up in
the air questions about both of them.
I would like to unlock
the football player's life.
Okay, america,
time to strap on your sleuthing hats
and take note of any clues.
Remember, the good singers
will be telling the truth,
but the bad singers
will be trying to trick you.
- Mm. - Let's find out what
football player is all about.
( music playing )
( distorted )
growing up in iowa,
all my friends played sports.
But I knew I always
wanted to sing.
I felt the pressure to
play sports instead.
I see earrings. Do
you see earrings?
In fourth grade,
I started playing tackle football.
All the other kids my
age were playing flag.
- Do I see a nose piercing?
- Oh!
I was so lucky to
have my brother,
who shares the
same love of music.
We were in a punk band together.
I'm not buying it
for some reason.
Now,
I work the open mic circuit,
singing every chance I get.
Was he in any of those pictures?
The ones that showed somebody performing,
he kind of had his head down.
- Oh, you guys are tricky.
- And there were a lot
of tattoos in that last picture,
but was that him?
Even when he was holding the guitar,
it seemed like a prop.
It didn't seem like...
Can I tell you what it is
throwing me the most?
The pictures that they were
showing were not of punk bands.
That looked way more
ozzfest than warped tour.
Cheryl: Oh!
I've been swayed.
I'm on the kelly train.
- Cheryl: Same.
- I'm on the choo-choo.
And watch me be wrong.
- Shannon, it's time to make a decision.
- All right.
- Ooh.
- Whose voice do you see as being bad?
Are you eliminating
football player?
Or do you want to eliminate
one of the other three?
- Final decision. - All right,
I'm going to eliminate
football player.
I think he's a bad singer, I do,
because he just didn't
give me the punk rock vibe.
Locking it!
So, football player, let's...
All: See your voice!
Kelly,
they brought a whole amp out.
I'm really sorry if I
messed this up for you.
- Cheryl: He's plugging in.
- Ah.
- Be bad, be bad.
- Please be bad.

- nick: Yeah! - Ken: Wow!
- Whoo!
- You are a meathead of a mess,
but you won shannon $10,000,
- bringing her total to $20,000.
- Whoo!
Football player,
was your brother in a punk band?
Did you guys start a
punk band together?
Uh, yeah, we were in punk
and hardcore bands growing up.
What did you do in the band? Like,
lay cable or something?
I didn't sing,
but I did play drums.
Dude. Give it up for
the football player.
Great job. Don't go anywhere.
This is "I can see your voice."
welcome back to "I
can see your voice."
shannon, you have now eliminated
one good singer
and two bad singers,
leaving you with three remaining
secret voices to choose from...
Stylist, mathlete,
and rock climber.
None of us know how many good
and how many bad
singers there are,
so you've still got
to tread carefully
if you're going to end
up with a good singer
at the end and
win that $100,000.
Shannon, I'll tell you what,
I'm just gonna let you
hear one of them sing.
- That's what I'm gonna do. Well, kind of.
- All right.
It's time for secret studio.
Under total and
complete secrecy,
all of our secret voices
have prerecorded
their very own demo
tape in our secret studio,
only their voices have been
altered by our world famous
vocal manipulation device.
So, shannon,
who would you like to see
go into the secret studio?
And you can only pick one.
I am really torn between
mathlete and rock climber.
So I am going to choose...
Mathlete to do
the secret studio.
- Ken: Okay.
- Because I feel like the way she was holding the mic
was kind of more
jokey than serious.
Shannon, panel,
while the pitch of their
voices will be altered,
there will still be plenty of clues
to look out for, so pay attention.
It's mathlete.
( high-pitched
distorted singing )
what is that?
It's so hard to tell
because it's been altered,
but it didn't sound to me, like,
even with the altered voice,
- the pitch went where it was supposed to go.
- That's what I was gonna say.
- Yeah, yeah.
- Well, when I was watching her sing,
it didn't feel like she was
even trying to hit notes.
- It felt like you was just, you know...
- whatever.
♪ We got the beat,
we got the beat ♪
( squeaking ) ♪ we got the beat
- nice.
- Thanks. I can hit that part.
Um, but it didn't seem like
she was concentrating
too much on the song.
Shannon,
it's time to make a decision.
Whoo. Just got real.
Remember, you can eliminate
any of the three secret
voices still up there.
Shannon,
who do you think is a bad singer?
And remember,
bad is good, good is bad.
I think... I still like stylist.
His lip sync was on
point to the actual track
and I think that it
matched his voice.
Rock climber,
I'm still so iffy about you.
She just... I felt
like it was too much,
kind of how counselor did me.
But I just don't know
for sure about her.
I think that mathlete
is a bad singer,
and I'm locking it in.
- Whoo! - Whoo!
Shannon, if you got this
right and picked a bad singer,
- you'll pocket another $10,000.
- Yeah! Yeah!
- Dance to that. - Whoo!
Mathlete, let's...
All: See your voice!
Oh, my god. My heart. My heart.

That was literally truly
and mathematically awful,
which means we love you
because you won shannon $10,000,
bringing your total to $30,000.
- Whoo! - Wow, okay, so,
I had heard that you
hold a world record
for knowing the
largest numbers of pi.
3.1419...
- No. No. - Yes.
- You're already wrong.

- 1971693993. - More impressive!
- Cheryl: What just happened?
- Wow.
Okay, give it up for the
mathlete. She's right on that one.
( cheering )
all right,
we are down to our last two secret voices.
And shannon's next elimination
is the most important one yet.
Join us after the break.
This is "I can see your voice."
welcome back to "I
can see your voice,"
the show where
spotting terrible talent
can make you really rich.
Shannon,
you have now eliminated one good singer
- and three bad singers. - Whoo!
You only have two
secret voices remaining.
They could both be good,
they could both be bad,
or there could be one of each.
We just don't know,
which brings us to
our final challenge.
It's interrogation.
Shannon,
you're about to get the opportunity
to grill either one of our
remaining secret voices,
stylist or rock climber,
and hear their unaltered
voice for the first time.
You'll get 30 seconds to
ask them whatever you want,
but then you have to
eliminate one of them.
Who do you want to
interrogate and why?
This is a very hard decision
because I feel like stylist
kind of skated through
because I just automatically
assumed that he
had a good voice.
So I do kind of want to know
a little bit more about him.
But then on the other hand,
my panel likes rock climber.
I'm iffy about rock climber.
So that just makes me want
to know more about her as well.
So I'm gonna interrogate
the rock climber.
Ken: Okay, rock climber,
prepare yourself.
Your 30 seconds starts in three,
two, one, go.
What was your proudest
musical moment?
In college,
I was given a scholarship
by the composer of "wicked."
oh, okay.
How many jobs
have you had before?
Acting-wise? Or singing-wise,
you mean?
Several. I've been doing
it since I was a child.
What was on your
road trip playlist?
Lots of sara bareilles.
Describe your energy on stage.
- Oh, magical? - Ooh, whoa.
- Ken: Was that helpful?
- I think so.
- Kind of. - Panel?
After listening to her talk,
I picture her swinging
from the sides of cliffs
singing sara bareilles.
And it was something about the
way she confidently said "wicked."
- yeah.
- It was like she was proud of that.
Yes,
and it was very specific. The composer.
And she used "magical." yeah,
I was sold on magical.
- Yeah.
- So, panel, where does this leave the stylist?
I think maybe we
get rid of the stylist.
Ken: Why get rid of the stylist?
'cause we believe that
the rock climber is a star.
She's a good singer.
And remember,
bad is good, good is bad.
And, shannon,
if this secret voice is a bad singer,
you'll pocket another $10,000.
It is time to make a decision.
Who's it gonna be?
Stylist or rock climber?
I mean, from the beginning,
stylist has been my guy.
I think you got the vocals,
but then I don't know
because I don't know you.
I don't know anything about you.
But, honestly,
I have to go with my gut,
and I didn't like rock
climber from the beginning.
I've got to lock in rock climber.
I think she's a bad singer.
- Locking it in, baby. - Whoo!
That means stylist will be
going through to the finale.
No big deal or anything,
but you're about to duet
with nick scott lachey.
So get ready.
Rock climber, let's...
All: See your voice!
( music playing )
oh, my god.
She's gonna "sang."

Rock climber, that was maybe
one of the most beautiful voices
I've ever heard in my life,
which is why I'm extremely
heartbroken right now.
Shannon,
you've missed out on $10,000,
but your total is still s30,000.
Sorry.
So you do climb for the
amazing acoustics and...
I really do like
to sing out there.
- It's good acoustics.
- What made you decide to do the show?
It's similar to rock climbing.
I love a good challenge.
So I decided to do something
that scares me a little bit.
- Good for you.
- I love that. I love that.
Give it up for the rock climber!
( cheers and applause )
shannon,
you are down to our last secret voice.
And if you have
successfully eliminated
all of the bad singers
and stylist is a good singer,
you could be taking
home $100,000.
But first, you've got to make
one of the biggest
decisions of your life.
All of america is holding
their breath to find out...
- After this break. - Whew!
Don't go anywhere.
Welcome back to "I
can see your voice."
we're down to our last
secret voice... stylist.
- It's all coming down to this.
- Shannon, it's time for you
to make your final and
biggest decision of all.
- ( groans ) - all game long,
you've been trying to find
and eliminate the bad singers
so that a good singer
is left standing up there
to duet with nick lachey.
Now for the first
time in the game,
you're hoping stylist
is a good singer.
So here's the decision
you have to make.
You can either walk away
with the $30,000
guaranteed to go home
or you can play on
for one final round,
our grand finale.
And if stylist turns out
to be a good singer,
your winnings will
shoot up to $100,000.
Whoo!
Oh, my.
However, if you get it wrong
and stylist turns out
to be a bad singer,
you will go home with nothing.
Panel, all night long you've
been taking notes, collecting facts.
Do you think stylist is
a good or bad singer?
He did an incredible job
with the lip sync challenge,
and I just feel like we
have nothing to gamble on.
We don't know anything.
All we saw was the
lip sync challenge.
- You know what I mean?
- Kelly: Yeah, but for me,
from the very first time I
saw anything to do with him,
I felt like he was
a good singer.
So I would take the risk.
- Cheryl?
- He might just be a great performer
and not a great singer,
and it's hard to bet
everything on that.
That's a good point. Take the money,
honey.
- $30,000 is a lot of money.
- Don't gamble no more. Vegas is closed.
- Nick lachey?
- I really believe that in this moment,
you have to trust your gut.
Because this is your
$30,000 on the line
and you have to trust whatever that
is in there that's talking to you, so...
Okay, shannon,
which way are you leaning?
Oh, shoot.
I think I'm going to...
I'm gonna pass out.
Um, this is hard. So hard.
Oh, I'm gonna throw up.
I do believe that he can sing.
I'm going with my gut.
I am going to...
- Risk it all. - Wow.
And I'm locking it in.
What did I just do?
What did I just do?
So right now is
the moment of truth.
Nick, please go and join stylist
on the stage of truth
for the grand duet finale.
Oh, god. What did I just do?
Let's see if you
made the right choice.
Let's do this, stylist.
Singing "get ready,"
please get it going for
nick lachey and stylist.
Oh, god.
