Season Premiere clues: From a young age, Galaxy Girl was “on top of the world,” accepted to the best schools on scholarship, and the youngest on stage — all before she could drive. Perfection was never her thing, however, so she walked away from all of that. Despite being “lost in the background” for years, she always believed she was meant for something more, so she worked her butt off — and her eventual rise was nothing short of “meteoric.”
“Ninja Turtles Night” clues: People have tried to control Galaxy Girl’s every move, but she has always resisted, like when she dramatically changed her look the night before one of her biggest shoots without telling anyone. She got the last laugh, though, because she shoot went “global” and became iconic.
“Ozzfest Night” clues: Galaxy Girl’s first concert was Lilith Fair. She was inspired, but she wasn’t “the one” who sang in her family, so she would practice at home in secret. But when she finally died, her family loved what they heard. Visual clues included a spider and a halo. “Not everyone earns a halo in their lifetime, but I sure did!” she teased.
“Star Trek Night” clues: After informing the judges (specifically Ken Jeong) that she’s not Gwen Stefani, Galaxy Girl revealed Las Vegas showgirls as her Colossal Clue. “My husband may love his slot machines, but when I go to Vegas, I’m not there to gamble,” she said. “I’m there to work.”
Semi-Finals clues: Galaxy Girl’s case file included a “best friends” necklace, representing the one star she’s looked up to her for her entire life. “By day, we’d sing karaoke in her convertible, but by night, she took the world’s biggest stages by storm — and I watched in awe.” Seeing this person’s rise to fame also gave Galaxy Girl an awareness of “public scrutiny.” This is someone whose footsteps she’s following in, and there’s even a little healthy competition. She also revealed she has a connection to Nick Cannon, whom she’s known since the early 2000s, though he’s closer to Galaxy Girl’s husband than he is to her.
TVLine’s final guess: We recognized Ashlee Simpson‘s voice the moment she sang in the premiere, but her first round of clues didn’t really add up. Then came “Ninja Turtles Night,” during which she recalled secretly switching up her look before a big shoot — and who could forget Simpson’s dramatic transformation from blonde to black? Just thinking about it makes us want to revisit “Autobiography.” As for her Colossal Clue, Simpson recently had a residency in Vegas.
