It's time to say "bye, bye" to Bluebell.
The Masked Singer season 12 contestant was eliminated during the Fox singing competition's Nov. 6 episode.
After making it all the way to the Group B finals, Bluebell shared her emotional backstory with viewers during '60s night—and hinted at her true identity in the process.
"I love dancing and singing, expressing my creativity," the celeb shared during a video package, "because there was a time when I had not a drop of inspiration in my bucket. I was at the top of my field, but when things stopped going my way, I was left wondering, 'Does anyone still love me?'"
"My ideas dried up and it felt like I couldn't put two words together to save my life," Bluebell continued. "That writer's block carried on for years. But it all changed the moment I became a mom. All of a sudden, with a fresh-cut perspective, inspiration came flooding back."
After performing an impressive rendition of The Contours' "Do You Love Me," Bluebell teased one more clue to the judges: an Australian Vegemite sandwich, which she called "a delicacy" from her homeland.
As for the judges' guesses? Jenny McCarthy picked Naomi Watts, Robin Thicke chose Isla Fisher, Ken Jeong made a convincing case for Rose Byrne and Rita Ora guessed Kylie Minogue.
However, they were all wrong. It was recording artist Natalie Imbruglia, whose epic cover of Anne Preven's "Torn" topped the charts in 1997.
"It's so much fun for me to do the dance choreography and everything," the 49-year-old shared after being unmasked. "Things that I don't do actually in my music career but I'm actually a stage school kid so I grew up doing it, so it's fun for me."
And noting she "had the best time" on the show, Natalie revealed one way she tried to trick the judges: "I'm struggling to get my accent back because I've been in American accent the whole time."
Keep reading to meet the other celebs who have been unmasked this season. The Masked Singer airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. on Fox.
Leaf Sheep (which happens to be an actual sea animal) was revealed to be NFL Hall of Fame legend John Elway, who was sent home first.
The celebrity behind the colorful Showbird costume? Community alum Yvette Nicole Brown.
Modern Family alum Marsai Martin flew away from the competition after it was revealed she was Woodpecker.
During week three's double elimination, singer Paula Cole, who was behind the Ship costume, was also eliminated.
The man behind the pink, furry costume was comedian and actor Andy Richter, who left the competition during the Oct. 16 episode.
The Emmy-winning actress behind the Chess Piece costume was none other than Orange Is the New Black alum and E! host Laverne Cox.
Bluebell was none other than Australian singer Natalie Imbruglia, who topped the charts in 1997 with her iconic cover of "Torn."
