Kristin Chenoweth Reveals She Won’t Return to ‘Family Feud’ After NSFW Answer

On Sep 20, 2022

Kristin Chenoweth appeared on an episode of Celebrity Family Feud in August of this year with a few of her friends, but according to her, it will be her last appearance.

During a visit to The Jennifer Hudson Show, Chenoweth recounted the embarrassing moment when she gave an inappropriate answer to one of the show’s questions.

The question that Celebrity Family Feud asked 100 women ahead of time was, “After the lips, what’s your favorite part of a man to kiss?”

As Chenoweth explained to Jennifer Hudson, speed was her team’s goal, and she managed to hit the buzzer ahead of her competitor, actress Kathy Najimy.

But maybe she should’ve taken another moment to think about her answer, as Chenoweth said, “rhymes with heinous.”

The audience and fellow contestants were stunned, not to mention Harvey, who had to turn away from the Broadway singer for a moment.

In the end, the answer wasn’t on the board, and Chenoweth’s team lost the round.

The Tony Award winner then made it clear to the audience of The Jennifer Hudson Show that she won’t appear on the show again, if only to avoid the embarrassment.

She said, “I am sorry, ladies and gentlemen, that I said that. I will never do that again, and I will never be on Family Feud again.”

Chenoweth went on, “They have showed [the episode] four times. I was at the mall the other day and a lady came up to me and said, ‘You said rhymes with heinous?!'”

Considering the Celebrity Family Feud clip on YouTube has over three million views as of writing, the show would likely love to have her back, but who knows what will happen in the future.
