“I wrestled in high school and was so good I could have gone to college for it, but I needed more,” Anteater teased in their clue pack that also included a lost-and-found and a watermelon.
Anteater said they “drove race cars, earned a racing license and, like a boss, I raced all over America and the UK”

“You can really hear that pain in his voice,” judge Robin Thicke told Anteater.
Branch and Poppy found an additional clue to the Anteater: a Hall of Fame star. “I suppose the Trolls might know something about the Hall of Fame,” Anteater said.
The panel, which also includes Ken Jeong, Jenny McCarthy and Nicole Scherzinger, suggested that the Anteater could be Bob Dylan, John Cougar Mellencamp, Willie Nelson, Bob Seger or Paul Simon.

Then the stage was lit by candelabras.
“Growing up, I had to be tough,” Candelabra said in his package of tips. “Mom was in and out of my life and I was alone a lot until some family friends accepted me.”
The package featured black dancing shoes, a question mark ring box, butterflies and a castle before Candelabra sang “All My Life” by K-Ci and JoJo.

Donut sang “I Do (Cherish You)” by 98 Degrees, and Thicke, 46, called it “so strong and so beautiful.”
The spices served Donut as an additional clue because “I’m well seasoned and several generations have enjoyed me,” explained the confectioner.
