- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
Claim to Fame is back for Season 2, and one contestant has already been sent packing (and she screamed and hollered the entire time). The reality competition show sends 12 contestants to live in a Hollywood mansion, each with an A-list celebrity relative that they must keep secret. Each week one nepo-baby gets their 'claim to fame' revealed and is shipped home. Whoever can keep their famous relative under wraps for the longest wins the prize money.

Who was eliminated last night on Claim to Fame?
ABC/Gizelle Hernandez
On the premiere of Claim to Fame Season 2, it was Carly who was eliminated (and she was not happy about it). Early in the episode we saw her getting worked up by the clue wall in the house, which she felt was announcing to everyone who her famous relative was. As it would turn out, the clue wall was less of the issue than her flailing attempts to deflect. Her fellow houseguests immediately caught on to her "claim to fame" not through the actual clues but because of her reactions to them.
Carly, who performed a bizarre rap/dance/singing number in the talent show, managed to stay out of the bottom two, but when the house nominated Hugo to be the guesser over JR, he called up Carly. Carly was aghast that Hugo, who she had offered some assistance to, would backstab her. She got even more pissed when he guessed her relative's identity correctly, storming through the house shouting obscenities at the producers and contestants on a live mic. Not a good look.

Who is Carly's Claim to Fame celebrity relative?
Carly's Claim to Fame celebrity relative is Oscar-winning actor Tom Hanks. He is her uncle, as she revealed during the two truths and a lie earlier in the episode, but the real clue that cracked the code was Carly's reaction to the bench on the clue wall. Unlike Hanks, who is generally regarded as one of the nicest people in Hollywood, Carly went full scorched earth after she was eliminated.
