- ‘Family Feud’ host Steve Harvey pokes fun at contestant’s body — that he brought it upon himself (marketrealist.com)
Steve Harvey, the quick-witted host of “Family Feud,” is known for his playful ribbing of contestants. Recently, a contestant named Todd provided fodder for Harvey’s humor when the survey question asked for reasons to ditch a blind date.
Todd’s answer? “Cause she’s big.”
This prompted Harvey to joke, “I don’t know who the hell is coming through that door where Todd is going. My Lord, look at the size of that gal right there!”
The audience erupted in laughter, especially since Todd himself was not exactly svelte.
As the game continued, Todd’s family attempted to guess the remaining answers on the board. Erin suggested “It’s your ex,” while Claudia offered “Ugly”—both popular responses.
Brittani guessed “He’s too old,” and Tori went with “Their outfit.” When it was Todd’s turn again, he quipped, “They’re poor,” earning more laughs from the audience and Harvey, who retorted, “You done walked your big, poor a** in here.
You’re not fitting to be in here, be huge and broke.” Unfortunately for Todd, “poor” wasn’t on the board.
Erin’s subsequent answer, “They’re related to me,” was on the board, leaving the family with one strike and one answer remaining.
Despite the near-win, the family couldn’t guess the final answer, giving the opposing team a chance to steal. However, they also failed to guess correctly.
Fans online loved Harvey’s back-and-forth with Todd, with comments like, “I LOVE how Steve responds to this guy,” and “The fat guy, calls others fat?? Oh the irony!!!!”
Clearly, Harvey’s comedic timing and playful banter continue to entertain “Family Feud” audiences.
