Amber Riley has literally has won the masked singer, dancing with the stars, the Olivier award that is equivalent or more to a Tony for playing Effie White. Keep pushing girl !
Amber's voice is so recognizable to Glee fans. She's been killing it since 2009! To this day I think the Glee cast had the most talented group of people in the industry working. A small few were lame ducks but for the most part that original cast displayed more acting, singing, dancing, and comedic talent than anything else you'd ever seen on tv before or since.
Glee was peak television. It had SO much diversity. A Indian principal, a transgender coach, multiple lgbtq+ students, different races, different religions. NO show before or since then has ever had such a diverse cast. Glee was perfect up until season 5
I knew she would win Season 8 with her beautiful, enchanting voice!!! ❤️ Heather Morris won The Masked Dancer and Amber Riley won The Masked Singer. Glee alumni are built different. Best season ever! Also, this one must now return to mundane living! Thank you for the joy/voices of the singers. 🎤🎶
@AJ Haywood honestly I think Thirsty would have been the one to swap with Kevin. But I fully agree. Heather on Masked Dancer, Amber on Masked Singer, and Kevin and Jenna on Secret Celeb Drag Race… clearly they have always been more than being on one TV series, but they are showing everyone that talent and performance is innate.
I'm so glad that Amber Riley AKA Harp winning season 8 as she truly being the most powerful singer with her fighting spirit and her courage who never lose to any toughest opponents. Congratulations to the Queen of season 8! 🎻🎵 🥇🏆👑
the season finale was amazing. wow i didn’t think amber could get better than what she did. even though naya wasent mentioned i personally got emotional when she performed edge of glory. Naya would be so proud of her
I knew it was Amber Riley since day 1 and I had no doubt she would win. She's the only celebrity to win both The Masked singer and Dancing with the stars.
I normally just come to youtube to see the unmaskings I'm tempted to watch this season with Amber winning. She was great on Glee so I like that she won
This season and this season finale was amazing. The amount of celebs that this season had was crazy. From William shatner Eric idle Chris Kirkpatrick montell jordan jeff dunham mario cantone kat graham gloria gaynor jerry springer joey lawrence le veon bell George foreman George Clinton Chris jericho adam carrola Linda blair ray Parker jr nikki glazer Wilson Phillips and now amber Riley or should I say QUEEN amber riley delivered and she did not disappoint. What a season and what a way to end it and I’m excited for what season 9 has in store
This season was phenomenal hand down best season final in mask singer history I'm so happy that harp finally won! I've been rooting for her since the first ep,and already knew who she was, she is amazing singer/ vocalist all Greek are proud Cory Naya ,and Mark must be smiling in heaven right now🙏🏽❤🎉🎊
i am so glad she won, i had my fingers crossed the whole time and screamed in joy when they announced that she was the winner. she absolutely deserves that trophy, congrats girl!
Dang it now I’m crying!! So happy for you and so well deserved and so happy the ladies made it second. Both sooo deserved to be the top two and god I love Amber and her voice ❤🎉
I was rooting for both of them an I am so glad that harp won. I’m also excited for a new season; pretty please let their be a wolf next season I’ve been waiting for a wolf mask to appear for so long
I actually would have been happy if either one of them won; but so happy for Harp/Amber Riley, she sung the heck out of this competition and all I can say is congratulations.
Dang it now I’m crying!! So happy for you and so well deserved and so happy the ladies made it second. Both sooo deserved to be the top two and god I love Amber and her voice ❤🎉
I wish some great pop producers and writers would come together to work with her to create an album worthy of her talent. Short of that, I would love for her to be featured on a Calvin Harris or David Guetta track. You know she could deliver on a club anthem. -- Congrats Amber, well deserved.
My very first impression was Kelly Clarkson due to Harp's body appearance, but since she doesn't sound like her and after my research of American Idol contestants that didn't win but became a bit famous, I believed that the Harp is Amber Riley.
I called it Week 1. I wasn't even watching the TV. I heard her voice and said, "that's Amber Riley!!" If you watch Steve Mackey's #tacotuesday or The Terrell Show, you KNOW her voice. CONGRATULATIONS Riley! You deserve this recognition 👏🏾
She was amazing!!! I knew her voice right off, I was just waiting for the reveal. I am glad that Wilson Philips were able to get back together though. Such an amazing season!!
No surprise but I just love Amber. I’m so happy for her. Not surprised about Wilson Phillips either. So glad they sang together again. An excellent night all around.
I knew it from the moment she starting singing. Any Glee fans just knew. I picked her from the beginning to win. Thus season was better than the last one. IMO
@Whitney Houston112 he was found with 25k photos and 600 videos of child pornography of children as young as 3 years old. we don't exactly need a prophet to know where god sent him
@Kim Connors No, that’s not what the commenter is saying. They are saying based off what he did while he was living that he’s not going to be in heaven with the rest of the cast.
omg I'm the happiest boy in the world I'm so glad to see Amber at least as a contestant and finally as a winner cause she absolutely deserves it! guys this season would be one of my favorites congrats miss amber and big love from russia ❤
I have to say The Masked Singer finale was actually hard this year. Because I love Amber but I also love Wilson Phillips so it was really hard to pick this year. Because I thought both of them were incredible.
@Jonathan Dillon Well maybe you shouldn't watched The Masked Singer anymore in since you want the Lambs to win so badly you got to deal with the votes.
To echo ALL of the gleeks in the comments. We all knew who this was day 1 of the show. She has a recognizable voice. It is EXTREMELY sad that she doesn't have an album ever since GLEE! She is totally underrated. I hope in 2023 she gets signed.
As a glee fan I knew it was Amber from the booty. Then she sang I knew she would win. Her voice is undeniably. And she has grown so much from glee even from Dreamgirls where she won her Olivier. Hands down the best singer to come from that show.
Amber Riley has literally has won the masked singer, dancing with the stars, the Olivier award that is equivalent or more to a Tony for playing Effie White. Keep pushing girl !
Let’s not forget she dominated her role as Mercedes jones
shes gonna get an grammy one day i believe it
def equivalent. not more though. the only award above the rest is the oscar.
The Olivier awards are the West End version of the Tony’s, in case you were wondering.
@Dillon Tyler Crawley 😑

finally someone speaking some truth. tired of all the musical haters and that being why Glee “sucked”. totally and 100% agree
@Sharye Bethancourt Cory's singing never did anything for me, but he was a really good actor, and seemed like a very kind person.
Cory grew. If I remember correctly, he was auto tuned at first. It’s adorable that he auditioned drumming on Tupperware tho. 😂🤣
Amber is amazing and I just loved when she sang with Patty LaBelle!
I knew she would win Season 8 with her beautiful, enchanting voice!!! ❤️ Heather Morris won The Masked Dancer and Amber Riley won The Masked Singer. Glee alumni are built different. Best season ever! Also, this one must now return to mundane living! Thank you for the joy/voices of the singers. 🎤🎶

If only kevin had won Secret Celebrity Drag Race...which he deserved
❤❤❤
all us gleeks knew it was her IMMEDIATELY and also knew she would win. her voice is unreal, she absolutely deserves this >>>
Dang Amber!! she's going to need a trophy room at this point!!
This is what "talent" is. An art form.
I knew this was Amber Riley from the very beginning! 😃 And I'm so glad she won! 😁
I'm so glad that Amber Riley AKA Harp winning season 8 as she truly being the most powerful singer with her fighting spirit and her courage who never lose to any toughest opponents. Congratulations to the Queen of season 8! 🎻🎵 🥇🏆👑
the season finale was amazing. wow i didn’t think amber could get better than what she did. even though naya wasent mentioned i personally got emotional when she performed edge of glory. Naya would be so proud of her
@Brandon Bennettand the fact the theme was personal anthem made it so much better
Yep her first performance was 100% for Naya and glee fans
I did too🥰🥰🥰
I knew it was Amber Riley since day 1 and I had no doubt she would win. She's the only celebrity to win both The Masked singer and Dancing with the stars.
@desiderata770 she won the mask dancer in the uk
Heather was definitely robbed on DWTS but Amber KILLED it. She's so amazing and talented.
She's proved Simon Cowell wrong on so many levels.
For once I knew one immediately. Also the amazing voice goes without saying but can we talk about those braids? Gorgeous.
i was hoping she would take them out of the costume to see them in full action 😩
Congratulations to Amber Riley, you did that and earned your Crown.
🎉🎉🎉
Sis is such an underrated powerhouse 🤍
Dancing with the stars and masked singer in the same life? Gorl you're talented
I knew from day one it was Amber. She is a powerhouse and totally underrated. We need a full album from her!!!!!!
I normally just come to youtube to see the unmaskings I'm tempted to watch this season with Amber winning. She was great on Glee so I like that she won
I knew it!! it was Amber Riley oh my God she’s gorgeous!😱💅🥺
Heather won masked dancer she won masked singer well done amber your talent is incredible girl I'm so happy she won
@Jonathan Dillon come on that voice of course she was she won every round
Except me!
@Jonathan Dillon everyone knew she would win
@Hayley Dee Because they are a trio, and we haven't had a trio win the Masked Singer before.
@Jonathan Dillon why did you want the lambs to win
This season and this season finale was amazing. The amount of celebs that this season had was crazy. From William shatner Eric idle Chris Kirkpatrick montell jordan jeff dunham mario cantone kat graham gloria gaynor jerry springer joey lawrence le veon bell George foreman George Clinton Chris jericho adam carrola Linda blair ray Parker jr nikki glazer Wilson Phillips and now amber Riley or should I say QUEEN amber riley delivered and she did not disappoint. What a season and what a way to end it and I’m excited for what season 9 has in store
❤❤❤
Definitely one of the best winners on this show, and THANK GOD Jenny didn’t get it right this time. Good job Nicole!
@VICTORIA I.C.E. You LeAnn Rhimes is one of the best too
LeeAnn Rhimes in my opinion
@Steve Faulkner I didn’t say she was THE best, just ONE of them. I actually think Fox from season 2 is the best winner of them all
@Steve Faulkner Your opinions
No she’s not the best winner.
that’s part 1 of my terrell show end of year winning list! Amber wins masked singer! now we wait for the voice and Kim Cruse!
This season was phenomenal hand down best season final in mask singer history I'm so happy that harp finally won! I've been rooting for her since the first ep,and already knew who she was, she is amazing singer/ vocalist all Greek are proud Cory Naya ,and Mark must be smiling in heaven right now🙏🏽❤🎉🎊
@Kim Friedrich it is so gross when people mention Mark in the same breath as Cory and Naya. Dude was a legit pedo.
❤❤❤❤
Marks not in heaven. He killed himself after he pleaded guilty to possession of child pornography.
She DESERVED this win. Amber/Harp is one of the best Masked Singers ever and I’m not just saying that. Her voice?? Hello?? SHE’S INCREDIBLE ❤
i am so glad she won, i had my fingers crossed the whole time and screamed in joy when they announced that she was the winner. she absolutely deserves that trophy, congrats girl!
🎉🎉🎉
Dang it now I’m crying!! So happy for you and so well deserved and so happy the ladies made it second. Both sooo deserved to be the top two and god I love Amber and her voice ❤🎉
Even her worst performance in my option (Tv Theme Night) was great. She came to play
She can do it all ❤❤❤❤congratulations so happy 😁 for y so happy 😁 it was y y deserve it ❤🎉
Cory Monteith (Finn Hudson), Mark Sailing (Puckerman) and Naya Rivera (Santana Lopez) they'll be so proud of Amber Riley (Mercedes).
I always know it was Amber Riley since the first episode her voice is absolutely amazing that girl can sing she deserves to win👏👏👏👏
I loved her on glee. She is so talented and deserving of that win.
Her voice is unique enough that this was one easily identifiable singer, if you knew of her from other performances on stage or Glee.
It is Amber Riley that plays Mercedes from Glee!!
Wow!! My guess was right!!
Yes u did! Congrats!🙌🏆
Amber is an all around WINNER! Loved that she used this opportunity to encourage others to follow their own dreams too 🤗
I was rooting for both of them an I am so glad that harp won. I’m also excited for a new season; pretty please let their be a wolf next season I’ve been waiting for a wolf mask to appear for so long
furry freak
This proof there's still justice in this f***ing world!
I hope she keeps on winning awards and reality competition shows.
Called it the second this season began! Knew it was Amber from the minute she opened her mouth. So glad she won. 🥰
She's so beautiful and a powerful singer, and I'm so excited that she won!
I know it was her from beginning! Congrats Amber
I knew it was her the second she appeared on stage.
see you all in Season 9! ;)
When he said Jennifer Hudson i starting CACKLING 😭😭😭
I actually would have been happy if either one of them won; but so happy for Harp/Amber Riley, she sung the heck out of this competition and all I can say is congratulations.
And 💛🎵 was playing by Amber Riley
The second she started singing in the first episode I was like “it’s Amber Riley and she just won”
You go girl
Considering the three who actually made it out of Groups A, B, and C, I'm glad Harp won.
The Format still sucked this season, though.
Us glee fans knew the moment she sang it was her
Dang it now I’m crying!! So happy for you and so well deserved and so happy the ladies made it second. Both sooo deserved to be the top two and god I love Amber and her voice ❤🎉
I wish some great pop producers and writers would come together to work with her to create an album worthy of her talent. Short of that, I would love for her to be featured on a Calvin Harris or David Guetta track. You know she could deliver on a club anthem. -- Congrats Amber, well deserved.
I knew it was her immediately and she DESERVED IT!!!!!!!!!
What a voice!!
she already got this in the bag the moment she joined… you’re not a glee fan if can’t recognize who she is. 👏👏👏👏
Only reality show I enjoy and watch.
Yes! Yes! Yes!!!!!!!!! OMG! I love Wilson Phillips as well so bravo to them for making it to the end.
I called that one from day one. I used to listen to their music in heavy rotation in the early 90’s. “Hold On” got me through some dark times.
Got Amber Riley right from day one
My very first impression was Kelly Clarkson due to Harp's body appearance, but since she doesn't sound like her and after my research of American Idol contestants that didn't win but became a bit famous, I believed that the Harp is Amber Riley.
I called it Week 1. I wasn't even watching the TV. I heard her voice and said, "that's Amber Riley!!" If you watch Steve Mackey's #tacotuesday or The Terrell Show, you KNOW her voice. CONGRATULATIONS Riley! You deserve this recognition 👏🏾
She was amazing!!! I knew her voice right off, I was just waiting for the reveal. I am glad that Wilson Philips were able to get back together though. Such an amazing season!!
The fact that Amber won the masked singer and Heather won the masked dancer (uk) makes my lil glee heart cry
Maravilhosaaaaa! Perfeitaaaa!!!!
No surprise but I just love Amber. I’m so happy for her. Not surprised about Wilson Phillips either. So glad they sang together again. An excellent night all around.
Congrats amber now you take over the globe baby
I knew it from the moment she starting singing. Any Glee fans just knew. I picked her from the beginning to win. Thus season was better than the last one. IMO
i absolutely love amber. well deserved
This really wasn’t a shock… I think the world KNEW it was amber Riley, and she did AMAZING! #TheMaskedSinger #AmberRiley #HarpMask
i knew she would win and i’m so happy for her extremely happy and i feel like i won by watching her sing 🫶🏽🫶🏽
From Perfect, to Edge of glory, I knew it was her, the Gleek senses were all pointing to the queen, Amber!!!!!!!
Major respect for singing Whitney Houston!
I'm so happy for her!
From day one. She stood out . Congratulations Amber Riley.💝😍🎯💯☑️🔥💥👏🏽💐
Winner!!! Yesssss. So deserving. Congratulations 🎊 👏 💐 🥳 💖

Naya, Mark, and Cory will be very proud of her while watching the show from heaven.
@nessie v .
@Whitney Houston112 he was found with 25k photos and 600 videos of child pornography of children as young as 3 years old. we don't exactly need a prophet to know where god sent him
@Gadolium Nitrogen I'm just saying it's not our decision or final say/
@Whitney Houston112 u think he has any chance?? LMFAO
@Kim Connors No, that’s not what the commenter is saying. They are saying based off what he did while he was living that he’s not going to be in heaven with the rest of the cast.
She's literally my favorite singer on Glee. I bust the windows out your car...
omg I'm the happiest boy in the world
I'm so glad to see Amber at least as a contestant and finally as a winner cause she absolutely deserves it!
guys this season would be one of my favorites
congrats miss amber and big love from russia ❤
❤
Season 8, HANDS DOWN THE BEST Competition of Performances & Talent.
I Loved All The Competitors!!!
I have to say The Masked Singer finale was actually hard this year. Because I love Amber but I also love Wilson Phillips so it was really hard to pick this year. Because I thought both of them were incredible.
I am as happy as the guy with pink hair week 1!!! it's truly how I felt after every performance💜💜
I still remember the season 6 winner queen of hearts I still love her.
I knew it from the second she started singing who it was. As a fan of GLEE, I'd know that voice anywhere
It's time for Amber to do a tour and show what she can do such a voice and she can dance Amber rock the world.
Amber Riley has now won Dancing with the Stars AND The Masked Singer. ❤🎉
That's right
Who else would it be!?!? Come on now who don’t know that amazing voice!!!!!
We knew as soon as she sang the first nite! World class talent!
Amber is a good actress, and a good singer BUT I love, love, love her dancing with Derrick on Dancing With The Stars. They were awesome together!
I BEEN SAID FROM S1 IF AMBER GETS IN THIS SHOW SHE WOULD WIN ICON
Yeah!!! I was right! I literally only heard one song and her voice was so recgonisable! I mean, how could you not think it wasn't her?
Of course it was Ms. Amber Riley. You can't get her voice confused with anybody else.
I knew who this was already
The Harp won from her very first song! Unbeatable! 🎉🎉🎉 Are they standing on top of the desks...in heels?
@Jonathan Dillon Haters! U just too jealous somehow, so back off due!🙄
@Jonathan Dillon Well maybe you shouldn't watched The Masked Singer anymore in since you want the Lambs to win so badly you got to deal with the votes.
Stop saying those words! I hate it!
It’s your time Amber shine girl keep on shining
I LOVE HER... just three words ...
Yes yes yes 👏 🙏🥰🥰🤗🤗🤗❤️👏👏👏🥂🥂😁🥳🥳🫶🫶cheers 😊
Amber Riley is amazing ❤️❤️❤️
To echo ALL of the gleeks in the comments. We all knew who this was day 1 of the show. She has a recognizable voice. It is EXTREMELY sad that she doesn't have an album ever since GLEE! She is totally underrated. I hope in 2023 she gets signed.

Congratulations Amber!!!!

Congrats to Harp! Only one I guessed right this season was Chris Jericho 🤣🤣 Used to be a WWE fan and loved his band Fozzy
