When Sleiman, joined by co-stars Stephanie Leonidas (Salome) and Emmanuelle Chriqui (Herodia), visited Yahoo TV, however, we decided to lighten the mood with a game of “Bible or B.S.” How it works: We read them statements, and they have to tell us whether they’re accurate according to scripture or something we made up (and yes, we were sneaky: There is a Tamar in the Bible, but, to our knowledge, the other Braxton sisters are not represented).

Watch the video above to see how they did.
