Jenny McCarthy and husband Donnie Wahlberg paid a virtual visit to тАЬThe TalkтАЭ┬аon Tuesday, where they discussed the big reveal that the тАЬBlue BloodsтАЭ star was actually Cluedle-Doo тАЬThe Masked SingerтАЭ, taking McCarthy completely by surprise.

тАЬWhat was going through my mind was complete shame, because I like to brag that IтАЩm you know, one of the best panelists. I won the Golden Ear; I know peopleтАЩs voices. And when he took that mask off, I was in total shock,тАЭ McCarthy admitted (she guessed that rapper Akon was actually the clue-spewing rooster).

тАЬI literally lost my footing and was shaking for about an hourтАж and heтАЩs supposed to be at work!тАЭ she added.

тАЬThe commute was complicated,тАЭ admitted Wahlberg, who was shooting тАЬBlue BloodsтАЭ in New York, while тАЬThe Masked SingerтАЭ tapes in Los Angeles.

тАЬMy main thing was, you know, how am I going to get over on Jenny, because we FaceTime sleep together. WeтАЩre together all the time even when weтАЩre not togetherтАж I know she doesnтАЩt have her phone a lot on the panel, so the few times when I spoke to her, maybe like 45 minutes before I performed, I made sure to get on FaceTime with her, and I said hi to Robin [Thicke], I said hi to Nicole [Scherzinger].. .I had Danny ReaganтАЩs suit jacket and tie from тАШBlue BloodsтАЩ and I just pretended I was on set,тАЭ he explained.

тАЬSo even though I think a few of them actually might have suspected it was me, they just spoke to me on FaceTime and were certain I was in New York,тАЭ Wahlberg added. тАЬSo I made sure that the last thought they had of me, or if my name came up in their heads, they would say wait a minute, no I just talked to him. HeтАЩs in New York, itтАЩs impossible.тАЭ

The coupleтАЩs visit to the show became emotional when co-host Amanda Kloots revealed that Wahlgerg had reached out to her while her husband, Nick Cordero, battled COVID-19 before his death last year.

тАЬI just want to personally thank you for reaching out to us. It meant a lot to me, thank you,тАЭ Kloots told Wahlberg, who had worked with Cordero on тАЬBlue BloodsтАЭ.

тАЬI was really blessed to work with Nick. He was so fun, so outgoing, and just larger than lifeтАж Your spirit through that whole experience was such an inspiration,тАЭ Wahlberg told Kloots.

тАЬI can see why you were the love of his life. You, in the most trying of times, were just a ray of light and positivity,тАЭ Wahlberg continued.

тАЬI tried to be that way during my momтАЩs last year, and really celebrate every moment with herтАж Please know that it meant a lot to me. You donтАЩt have to thank meтАж I try to stay grateful every day for the blessings that I have, and that we have in our lives, and he was certainly a blessing in ours. I canтАЩt even imagine the blessing he was in yoursтАж and I was honoured that we were able to do a dedication to your husband on our show. He was part of the family, in that short time, he made such an impact on us. He was a huge part of the тАШBlue BloodsтАЩ family,тАЭ Wahlberg said.

тАЬThe TalkтАЭ airs weekdays at 2 p.m. ET/PT on Global.
