Night Owl, who was revealed to be singer-songwriter and Broadway star Debbie Gibson, reveals her whirlwind 'The Masked Singer' journey — which she believes ...

And so I was like, "Okay, I think the universe is sending me this as my unique moment and my unique experience." I'm so glad I got to be part of this family and experience and legacy, and yes, I definitely would love to talk about it [with others]. He admittedly has had surgeries, hips and knees and all kinds of crazy things, so for him to be in the crazy costumes — those costumes are heavy! So I was like, huh, okay, now I think I might be wrong on the generation, and I might be wrong on the genre of artist that she is. So I came to my house, unpacked, repacked, got driven to L.A., got there at 10 p.m., and was on the set at 8 in the morning. It came up and I was feeling very rock and roll and in the mood to say yes. And the call came as I was sitting down on the plane, and then it got confirmed when I landed. Are you going to call any of them up now that you've done the show to compare notes? Now I'm completely stumped and I want to just leave it to social media nation to be guessing and I don't want to guess. I love the craft of making an album in the studio, which I did with The Body Remembers — it's a double album — and I love doing all that. And "Fernando" came up as the song for me to sing, literally, I was on a plane heading from New York to Vegas, where I live, the day before. Ultimately, Night Owl was defeated and Medusa won the war, and therefore moves on to next week.

Debbie Gibson Is Night Owl On 'The Masked Singer': Exclusive ... (Hollywood Life)

Debbie Gibson was revealed as the Night Owl on 'The Masked Singer' and admits it felt like 'jumping out of an airplane.'

I did a tour last year to support my current album The Body Remembers, and there was a demand for more dates, which is lovely. I’m just always trying to keep up with all the ideas, but my album is on my label. She admitted that the Night Owl costume was “challenging” to wear. I don’t think I could have sustained carrying this costume day after day because it was really heavy on the upper body,” she told HollywoodLife. “I’m doing another I think it’s 15 cities, and there are going to be a few more dates announced that I’m doing. So I was not surprised, as she said her husband would disown her as if she didn’t get me. I think I’ve sounded pretty much the same since I was 15 years old,” she said. It was very eccentric rock’n’roll to me.” She was drawn to the costume because it felt “eccentric and glamorous and rock and roll. “I didn’t know I was doing the show until about 16 hours before. This is my version of jumping out of an airplane.” “I’d gotten calls about doing the show before, and I’ve been touring heavily in the last couple of years.

But what I really would love to do, and I have, I have been a composer and lyricist and co-lyricist on a couple of original musicals. I was in the costume and every little theater girl dream I ever had was coming to me and a feeling of like, "This is everything." I was so all in when I did Broadway, I did not have a life at all outside of the stage. I was like, "Sure!" It's a reminder that if you have a sense of humor and you trust yourself and if I trust my years of being a professional, I get to have these cool experiences. So I got off the plane, I got driven to my house in Vegas. I just had that sense of play that that connected me to the little girl performer in me. Like, I literally want to live in my costume."

Debbie Gibson Got the Call to Go on 'The Masked Singer' on the ... (PEOPLE.com)

"It felt very much just like the universe sent something my way that I needed for some reason," the pop star, who competed as Night Owl, tells PEOPLE.

One of my favorite moments last year on tour was, I have a duet called "Cry Tonight," and it's kind of country-flavored. I'm eating pizza, and I have to sing tomorrow." Because I always said, I have my diehard fans that have watched my every move and been with me for every twist and turn of 36 years. And I was like, "Cheers, mom. It's definitely different, but I think it is because I'm a seasoned performer that I was able to do it on a moment's notice. I was in awe of Medusa, and I was like, "OK, whoever that is has been preparing for ages." I thought, "What a great way to challenge myself again." If I thought I was going to be on the show [The Masked Singer] for a long time and I had time to collaborate on a costume properly, I would've definitely wanted to come up with something more sustainable because there was metal digging into my shoulders, and you had to shimmy down the hallway sideways to get to the stage because the wingspan was too wide. "My mom managed me for 25 years, and the day I was on the plane and got the call was the year anniversary of my mom's passing," she says. I got in at 10:00 at night, and was on set at 8:00 in the morning. And I'm someone who usually puts a mic right up to my mouth and that's part of my style of singing is pushing the breath into the mic. And it was very heavy, very heavy on the upper body.
