Spoiler Alert: Do not read ahead if you have not watched the Season 9, episode 13 of “The Masked Singer,” which aired May 10 on Fox.
Pentatonix is pretty easy to recognize, as perhaps the best-known a cappella group performing today. So from the start, it was pretty easy to tell it was them on “The Masked Singer” – and indeed, the five-person group was unmasked as California Roll on Thursday’s show, which also doubled as the Season 9 semifinals.
For their first song, “Paparazzi,” group member Scott Hoying said they tried to avoid doing any harmonies at first, “so we could hide the iconic Pentatonix harmony sound for at least a minute. For the first minute, I was trying to really change my voice. But it didn’t work, because every comment on every video was like, ‘I knew from the beginning it was Pentatonix and I was confirmed as soon as they all came in.

It took till season 9 of “The Masked Singer” but we’ve finally got a costume that features five performers: the California Roll. They took to the stage on March 1 to deliver a soaring cover of the hit “Paparazzi” by Lady Gaga. After Polar Bear lost the audience vote and was revealed to be rapper Grandmaster Flash, California Roll was pitted in a Battle Royale with Medusa.
Each put their own spin on the classic tune “Uptown Girl” by Billie Joel. Medusa delivered a traditional take on the tune while California Roll turned it into a haunting ballad. After Medusa won the vote, we thought this was the last we’d see of California Roll but Nicole Scherzinger sounded the Ding Dong bell and saved them.
We’ve been rewatching both of these performances and have all your “The Masked Singer” spoilers, including the answer to the question, “Who is California...

Kristin Chenoweth remembers the day Ariana Grande came to see the original Broadway production of “Wicked.” Adam Lambert fondly recalls playing the role of Fiyero in the touring production before “American Idol” made him a star.
Original cast members and first-wave fans of the smash Broadway musical “Wicked” have come together for a salute to the tuner’s 15th anniversary on Broadway, set to air Oct. 29 as an hourlong special on NBC.
Chenoweth has been part of the fabric of “Wicked” from the beginning – the role of Glinda was written with her in mind – but 15 years on, she confesses that she didn’t realize at the time how important the musical would be to so many.
“It’s impacted my life when I get to meet people who say, ‘It’s one of the first shows I saw and the first scores I heard,’” she told Variety ahead of the...

The Christmas season is always an active time of year for the a cappella group Pentatonix, and this year, the group's schedule included an appearance on TV. The melodious outfit dished out lyrical bombs in an episode of TBS' Drop The Mic, which pits celebrities against one another in rap battle-style verbal sparring matches.
On Drop The Mic, Pentatonix, which has more than 14 million subscribers on its official YouTube channel, went up against Bell Biv Devoe, the R&B group known for the hit song "Poison." Pentatonix members Kirstie Maldonado, Mitch Grassi, Scott Hoying, and Kevin Olusola took turns trading barbs with the 90s icons, who were ultimately declared as the battle's victors. Matt Sallee, who recently made his debut as the newest member of Pentatonix, did not appear on the show.

It's been five months since Avi Kaplan, the founding bass singer of Pentatonix, decided to step away from the popular a cappella group. The Pentatonix YouTube channel, which has more than 13 million subscribers, has been quiet since then, but with the holiday season fast approaching, the musical quintet has now added a new member to its ranks. Matt Sallee will join Pentatonix as its bass voice for both an upcoming wintertime tour and a new album called A Pentatonix Christmas Deluxe.
Sallee, a graduate of the Berklee College of Music, will take over Kaplan's position in the lowest register of Pentatonix's range. The group, whose other members are Kirstie Maldonado, Kevin Olusola, Scott Hoying, and Mitch Grassi, welcomed its new addition into the fold with an Instagram post. "We love Matt and we think you’ll love him too," it reads.

A cappella group Pentatonix, which has more than 13 million subscribers on YouTube, is so popular that even its side groups have enough clout to launch their own albums. Superfruit, a spin-off channel hosted by Pentatonix members Mitch Grassi and Scott Hoying, has announced its plan to release both parts of a double Ep called Future Friends in 2017.
Future Friends will be split across two albums. The first half of the Ep is due out on June 30th, with preorders beginning ten days prior to release. The second half will arrive on September 15th. Additional details about the multi-part project are available in a video released by Grassi and Hoying on the Superfruit channel.

This holiday season, a cappella group Pentatonix offered up A Pentatonix Christmas, which serves as their second album of Yuletide songs. This time, in support of their effort to mission to spread holiday cheer, they took to YouTube to share a unique offering with their fans. A partnership between Sony Music Originals and Lego has resulted in a Lego-fied, 360-degree music video for Pentatonix’s cover of the 150-year-old Christmas song “Up On The Housetop.”
To create the video, Sony (which is partnered with Pentatonix through its RCA Records label) turned to the Lego Group in search of an animated makeover for its a cappella all stars. The toy company obliged, creating versions of band members Scott Hoying, Mitch Grassi, Kirstin Maldonado, Avi Kaplan, and Kevin “K.O.” Olusola using its iconic toys as models.
The resulting video is embedded below. For best results, watch it in 360-degrees through a device such as Google Cardboard.
