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 notable winners, including Loreal (Keke Palmer’s sister) from season 1 and Gabriel (Nick Cannon’s brother) from season 2. This season promises even more star-studded connections, with the co-hosts teasing that it features the “most famous” celebrity relatives yet.
Here’s a look at the contestants and the clues they’ve provided about their famous family members:
**Bianca**
Bianca was the first contestant to be eliminated. During her “Two Truths and a Lie,” she mentioned that her famous aunt had won a Peabody Award. This clue left her fellow contestants puzzled. It was later revealed that Bianca is the niece of Good Morning America anchor Robin Roberts.
**Adam**
Adam’s “Two Truths and a Lie” initially included that his relative was an actor, but he later clarified that his relative is actually a singer. He avoided singing during the talent show to prevent giving away his connection. While his celebrity relative remains unconfirmed, many believe he resembles Calvin Harris or Josh Gates.
**Danny**
Danny provided the intriguing clue that his celebrity relative is a wrestler who has won a Grammy. This led to speculation that he might 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 revealed that his uncle is “one of the most famous and iconic people in the world” and a singer. He accidentally let slip that his last name is Jackson, leading many to believe he could be related to Michael Jackson.
**Gracie Lou**
Gracie Lou has been deceptive about her background, claiming her relative is from a country music family. However, she hinted that the duck on the clue wall was related to her celebrity relative, leading some to speculate she might be connected to someone from Duck Dynasty.

Hud mentioned that his celebrity relative is a singer with a Grammy. Some fans think he might be related to musicians like John Mellencamp or James Taylor.
**Jill**
Jill’s “Two Truths and a Lie” revealed that her celebrity relative is her grandfather, an actor who has won a People’s Choice Award. She bears a resemblance to celebrities like Joey King and Alyson Stoner, but her relative remains unconfirmed.
