Meet Monay from Claim To Fame Part 2

Season 2 of Claim To Fame premiered in June 2023, and the show’s 10th episode premiered on August 28. While you might think you’ve figured out the famous relatives of all the actors on Claim To Fame, think again.

Monay, who many of us believe is Steve Harvey’s daughter. The show begins with a simple, well-known game called “Two Truths and a Lie.” Two real truths and one complete fabrication are required of pretend celebrities as they introduce themselves and their famous relatives. Monay is pretty crafty with what she says. She’s pretty vague on all three points.

Her three clues were: that relative was her father, he won an Emmy, the biggest award he had, and he was an athlete.

Monay also said that her famous relative has been on television for a long time. Based on that and some clues about their physical features, it is assumed that her father is Family Feud host Steve Harvey.

We also have a few other options thanks to the wall of clues. There’s a football glove and a baseball glove, both of which have pretty obvious uses. But there’s also a horse, which could be a jockey. Since there’s a steering wheel, there’s also the possibility that someone’s family is a race car driver.

But Distractify caught up with Monay, and here’s what she had to say about her final episode, and her journey from start to finish. Monay said that she’s been in touch with Shayne since the show and they’ve formed a real friendship. She also expressed that she was surprised by Jane’s early departure, complimenting that they were quite impressed and had “looked forward to her going further”.

Who is Claim To Fame Monay’s famous relative?

Straight to the problem, Reputation requirements Monay is related to JB Smoove. Monay and Gabriel were the final contestants on the final episode. Gabriel decided to be the guesser on the episode and Gabriel guessed correctly when he said that JB Smoove was her father.

“Honestly, I was both excited and happy that he guessed who my dad was,” Monay shared. “I’m a happy person, so I was happy for Gabriel. At the same time, I was happy to talk about my dad and express how proud I am to be his daughter.”

She shared with the entertainment news outlet that her father told her to “Be happy and be yourself.”

Speaking to EW, she shared that her dad told her, “At first, he was really excited and then about two days ago, he got nervous because I’m an only child and I work directly with my dad all the time. Day after day, we hang out, email back and forth, call each other. So when I said I was going to be on the show, he got nervous. He was like, who’s going to take care of everything? I’m going to miss you, blah, blah, blah. But I made sure he was all set up and then he got excited about me. He just got nervous.”

When asked if there was anything she would have done differently, Monay said, “Thank you for saying that I played a great match. I went into it knowing that that was exactly what it was — a match. Even though we all felt really connected, it was hard to play the match as a unit, because at the end of the day, it was the last man standing. I felt really good about my time in the house and I left there with some great new friends. So no, I don’t think I would change anything.”
