Lil Jon’s Cheese Complaint Cracks Up Steve Harvey on Celebrity Family Feud
Things got hilariously awkward on a recent episode of Celebrity Family Feud when rapper Lil Jon questioned the survey answers, blaming “white people” for the unexpected responses.
The episode featured a face-off between Team Lil Jon and Team Matt Rife, led by comedian Matt Rife. Host Steve Harvey posed the question, “Name a smell that might remind a woman of her ex.”
While Team Rife struggled to find answers on the board, Lil Jon’s team had a chance to steal with “hair shampoo.” No luck.
As Harvey revealed the board’s top answers, the studio audience erupted in laughter. “Cheese” was the number one answer.
A bewildered Lil Jon exclaimed, “Steve, who the hell did y’all talk to? Cheese?
They were white.” He jokingly argued that Black people wouldn’t associate the smell of cheese with an ex.
Harvey, enjoying being on the receiving end of the jokes for once, quipped, “I just read the questions and flip the board. I don’t know none of these people my damn self.
Now, we blamed the white people for this. I think we ought to just leave it at that.”
The laughs continued as “wood” was revealed, prompting Lil Jon to walk away from his podium in disbelief. Even the suggestion of “mayonnaise” as a possible answer had both Lil Jon and Harvey in stitches. The remaining answers, “beer” and “cigarettes/cigars,” only added to the absurdity.
