![]() I would have never thought that I would get that far. “So when they called me, I was like, I can’t live like that anymore. Hall said the pandemic convinced him to leave his comfort zone and try things he would normally turn down. But when I’m thinking just having to perform I get so nervous.” ![]() “Even though I’m a Broadway kid, and for some reason when I’m on Broadway, it doesn’t make me nervous because I’m playing a character. Host Nick Cannon and Bull, “The Masked Singer” FoxĪs for the Bull, Hall told Variety that “The Masked Singer” helped him tackle his nervousness of singing live in front of people. And hopefully enough to throw for people.” So the Southern accent was really easy for me. And I’ve also played June Carter Cash in a movie. “You have to find a way of being really sincere and only throw them off in ways that are not as important,” she said. Jewel said she tried to throw off the judges by employing an exaggerated Southern accent in her clue packages. Previous panel guesses for Queen of Hearts included Britney Spears, Kellie Pickler, Faith Hill, Carrie Underwood, Fergie, Renee Zellweger, Ireland Baldwin, Ashley Judd, Lady Gaga, Miley Cyrus, Kacey Musgraves, Jessica Simpson, Jennifer Lawrence, Jewel, Kristin Chenoweth, Kelly Clarkson, Sia, Christina Aguilera, KT Tunstall, Paula Cole and yes, Jewel. Then in a clues video, a reference to the tin man from “The Wizard of Oz” related to Jewel’s portrayal of Dorothy as part of 1995’s “The Wizard of Oz in Concert: Dreams Come True.” Another reference to childhood storybooks included imagery of an “Alice in Wonderland” tea party Jewel’s sixth studio album from 2006 was titled “Goodbye Alice in Wonderland.” She mentioned growing up in a house that lacked warmth, a reference to her early upbringing at a cabin in Alaska.

It wasn’t focused on my stories, my name, it was just really based on my heart.”Īnd that’s why Jewel said she gravitated toward the Queen of Hearts costume. Oddly, that’s what this show allowed me to do. And so what if all those things went away. “I do a lot of work in the mental health space, and I say that our self-worth cannot be tied to anything outside of ourselves. Meanwhile, Jewel added that she felt appearing on “The Masked Singer” also served to showcase the power of self-worth. The Grammy-nominated artist will now release a covers EP of material performed on the show, titled, appropriately, “Queen of Hearts.” And so this show gave me a chance to focus on my vocals, on pushing myself technically as a singer.” “My heroes are like Sarah Vaughan, who inspired to sing and Edith Piaf and Patsy Cline. “I don’t tend to show off my technical ability as a singer,” she said. The singer also appreciated the challenge of trying different performance styles, and she took full advantage of that through her song choices: “Born This Way,” by Lady Gaga “La Vie En Rose,” by Edith Piaf “River,” by Bishop Briggs “She’s Got You,” by Patsy Cline “Bird Set Free,” by Sia and “Dream On,” by Aerosmith, which she sang with panelist Nicole Scherzinger.įor the finale, Jewel as the Queen of Hearts sang two more tunes: “What’s Goin On,” by Marvin Gaye, and “Firework,” by Katy Perry.
