Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity Release Date Set for Travis Kelce Prime Video Show
Prime Video has officially announced the release date for the upcoming spin-off to the hit quiz game show Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader. The show will be hosted by Kansas City Chiefs tight end, Travis Kelce.
“Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity? offers a fun, new twist on the premise of the original popular format. Hosted by Travis Kelce, each game will welcome an adult contestant who will rely on a classroom full of celebrities from comedy, screen, and sports to help them answer 11 questions on a range of subjects, pulled from elementary curriculum, in an effort to win a $100,000 prize,” reads the logline. “Rather than compete against the stars, contestants enlist their help and, in some cases, can even ‘cheat’ off of them. And on the final question, worth $100,000, the contestant selects one celebrity to discuss the answer with before locking in. The final question is always at the 6th-grade level.”
Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity? is scheduled to make its debut on Wednesday, October 16 with the first three episodes, exclusively on Prime Video. Following its premiere, one new episode will drop weekly.
Kelce will be joined by a classroom full of celebrity participants, including Nikki Glaser, Natasha Leggero, Nicole Byer, and Ron Funches; Thursday Night Football analyst Ryan Fitzpatrick; former NFL wide receiver Chad Ochocinco; Real Housewife of Beverly Hills’ Garcelle Beauvais; Vanderpump Rules star Lala Kent; podcaster Sophia Stallone; and former late-night talk show host Lilly Singh.
