Claim to Fame season 2 finale: Monay is JB Smoove’s daughter?

Entering tonight’s Claim to Fame season 2 finale, we certainly felt like Monay could very well be the winner. What was the biggest reason for that? Well, it was rather simple: Nobody had been able to guess her celebrity relative yet!

Perhaps more so than any other contestant on the show, this one was really all about whether or not people had seen a pretty singular work in Curb Your Enthusiasm. If they had, then everyone would know that this was JB Smoove. If they hadn’t, then they would probably not be able to figure things out. Luckily for Monay, it didn’t appear that anyone had seen it.

Also, add to this her remarkable knowledge of celebrities! She had shown herself to be a pretty formidable opponent for a good chunk of the season.

Here’s the good news for Monay — she made it all the way to the finale without much of a problem! However, it was former contestant Jane who really blew the door open, recognizing a pair of glasses in the final challenge that she recognized from a commercial featuring Smoove. For the first time all season, someone active on the show knew who she was in Chris … even if Chris wasn’t actually that aware seemingly as to who JB Smoove even is.

Was she able to keep it a secret all season long?

Well, Gabriel was the final Guesser, and he had the challenge of trying to identify her. Well, was he able to in the end? In a word, yes! He managed to figure it out at the last moment, and that was enough for him to take home the grand prize here. Still, credit to Monay for playing a pretty incredible game.
