“Claim to Fame” is back for its third season, and the competition is as fierce as ever. The ABC reality series, co-hosted by Kevin Jonas and Frankie Jonas, brings together 12 contestants who are all related to celebrities. Their goal? To uncover each other’s famous relatives while keeping their own connections a secret, all for a chance to win a $100,000 prize.
The show has already seen some big reveals in its previous seasons. Season 1 crowned Loreal Palmer, Keke Palmer’s sister, as the winner, while Season 2 saw Gabriel, Nick Cannon’s brother, take home the top prize. This season promises to be just as star-studded, with the co-hosts teasing that it features the “most famous” celebrity relatives they’ve ever had.
Here’s a look at the contestants who have been revealed so far and those still in the running.
**Bianca**
Bianca was the first contestant to be eliminated this season. During her “Two Truths and a Lie,” she mentioned that her famous aunt had won a Peabody Award, which left her fellow contestants puzzled. In the premiere, Bianca was revealed to be the niece of “Good Morning America” anchor Robin Roberts.
**Adam**
Adam’s “Two Truths and a Lie” included the fact that his relative was an actor, but he later revealed that his relative is actually a singer. He avoided singing during the talent show to keep his connection a secret. While his celebrity relative hasn’t been confirmed, many believe he resembles Calvin Harris or Josh Gates.
**Danny**
Danny mentioned that his celebrity relative is a wrestler who has won a Grammy. This clue led contestants to theorize that he could be related to Dwayne Johnson, who starred in the Grammy-winning film “Moana,” or Bad Bunny, who has a WWE career and a Grammy.
**Dedrick**
Dedrick noted that his uncle is “one of the most famous and iconic people in the world” and that his relative is a singer. Some believe he might be related to Michael Jackson, as he accidentally let it slip that his last name is Jackson.
**Gracie Lou**
Gracie Lou has been misleading her fellow contestants by claiming her relative is from a country music family. However, she revealed in confessionals that she’s lying about her background. Some fans think she could be related to someone from “Duck Dynasty,” as she mentioned that the duck on the clue wall was for her celebrity relative.
**Hud**
Hud teased that his celebrity relative is a singer with a Grammy. While his relative hasn’t been confirmed, some think he might be related to musicians like John Mellencamp or James Taylor.
**Jill**
During “Two Truths and a Lie,” Jill said that her celebrity relative is her grandfather, who is an actor and has won a People’s Choice Award. Many have pointed out that she looks similar to celebrities like Joey King and Alyson Stoner.
**Mackenzie**
Mackenzie revealed in a confessional that she’s lying about her relative being a Tony winner, meaning her relative is her father and a singer. The biggest theory is that she’s related to Trace Adkins.
**Miguel**
Miguel teased that his relative is “exceedingly famous” and not his grandfather, suggesting his relative is an Oscar-winning actor. He also mentioned using a fake name to appear “more Spanish” than he is. Contestants have theorized he could be related to Antonio Banderas based on his looks.
**Naomi**
In her “Two Truths and a Lie,” Naomi said her relative was her cousin, who is a singer and has won the Young Artist Award. Her clue card also hinted that her relative was a “Brat Pack princess,” likely from the ’80s Brat Pack era. Many believe she could be related to Molly Ringwald or Demi Moore.
**Shane**
Shane noted that his relative is an “icon in Hollywood” and hinted during the talent show that his relative is great on stage, possibly a stand-up comedian or theater actor. Some fans have guessed he could be related to Tyler Perry or Kevin Hart.
As the season progresses, more celebrity relatives will be unveiled, adding to the excitement and intrigue of the show. The competition is heating up, and fans are eagerly waiting to see who will be the last one standing and take home the $100,000 prize.
