It was all to play for for the four finalists Blue Crane, Giraffe, Owl, and Gold. 

The finale kicked off with two head-to-head battles, Blue Crane went up against Gold while the Owl went up against Giraffe. 

Blue Crane and Giraffe came out on top which meant that the Owl and Gold were the first to be unmasked for the night. 

The Owl was unmasked as actor Aubrey Poo and Gold turned out to be Sbu Noah.

Blue Crane and Giraffe gave it their all with one final song, hoping to take home the coveted trophy. 

In the end, the super fans and detectives crowned Giraffe the winner. 

The majestic Blue Crane was unmasked as former Miss South Africa, Shudufhadzo Musida. 

And the moment we have all been waiting for, the Giraffe was unmasked and revealed to be none other than the iconic actor Warren Masemola!

"I was so excited to get to the finals, and I was very happy that I was allowed to perform Damian Marley's 'Welcome to Jackrock'. It is one of my favourite songs... I had so much fun, I would do this again."

- Warren Masemola, actor

"When I was invited to do the second season of this show I was booked on another project in Cape Town and we had to shoot the 'Masked Singer' in Johannesburg... I said to the team if I go onto 'Masked Singer South Africa' I have to have availability until the finale because one thing for sure is I am going to win it."

- Warren Masemola, actor
