It was the Beach Ball’s first performance on “The Masked Singer.”

They covered Miley Cyrus’ “Party in the USA.”

[{"selector":"#anim-dc2c6b1b-dae7-4d6b-9858-e05071837673","keyframes":[{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":0},{"transform":"scale(1.01)","offset":0.33},{"transform":"scale(0.999)","offset":0.66},{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":1}],"delay":0,"duration":3000,"easing":"ease-in-out","fill":"both","iterations":1}]

Fans called the performance “tone-deaf.”

[{"selector":"#anim-f90bcebf-bb41-4052-ba5a-0a460c339f37","keyframes":[{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":0},{"transform":"scale(1.01)","offset":0.33},{"transform":"scale(0.999)","offset":0.66},{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":1}],"delay":0,"duration":3000,"easing":"ease-in-out","fill":"both","iterations":1}]

The Beach Ball was unmasked to reveal Honey Boo Boo and Mama June.

[{"selector":"#anim-3ccc8dcf-c762-493b-8330-211dd5421951","keyframes":[{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":0},{"transform":"scale(1.01)","offset":0.33},{"transform":"scale(0.999)","offset":0.66},{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":1}],"delay":0,"duration":3000,"easing":"ease-in-out","fill":"both","iterations":1}]

They became an instant sensation in “Toddlers & Tiaras.”

[{"selector":"#anim-8252a575-8f07-4d20-98f4-587c65d1c511","keyframes":[{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":0},{"transform":"scale(1.01)","offset":0.33},{"transform":"scale(0.999)","offset":0.66},{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":1}],"delay":0,"duration":3000,"easing":"ease-in-out","fill":"both","iterations":1}]

They are also known for their own show, “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo.”

[{"selector":"#anim-de8898df-5234-4d3d-862c-3fa42d76060f","keyframes":[{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":0},{"transform":"scale(1.01)","offset":0.33},{"transform":"scale(0.999)","offset":0.66},{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":1}],"delay":0,"duration":3000,"easing":"ease-in-out","fill":"both","iterations":1}]

Mama June said this is her first project outside their show she has done with her daughter.

[{"selector":"#anim-d055f661-3c4d-4f18-b96c-4905b3c6f290","keyframes":[{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":0},{"transform":"scale(1.01)","offset":0.33},{"transform":"scale(0.999)","offset":0.66},{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":1}],"delay":0,"duration":3000,"easing":"ease-in-out","fill":"both","iterations":1}]

It still didn’t stop fans from calling it “the worst performance in Masked Singer history.”
