Steve Harvey shames ‘Family Feud’ contestant for ‘stupidest’ answer: You’re getting divorced

Steve Harvey is tired. The “Family Feud” host puts up with a lot of ridiculous answers from contestants — but he’s now officially labeled one the “stupidest.”

On Sunday, the show shared a clip via TikTok of Harvey saying: “Women love a man in uniform. Men love a woman in what?”

Before Jeff answered, he was very aware of the reaction he was going to get with his response.

“I’m going to get myself in trouble with my wife,” he began. “But the kitchen.”

In true Harvey fashion, the disappointed comedian shook his head and looked to the ground.

One of Jeff’s teammates chimed in: “Oh, buddy!”

“Yeah, I gotta tell ya,” Harvey, 67, said. “That’s about the stupidest thing you could have said.”

And viewers couldn’t agree more.

Fans of the game show took to the comments of the TikTok video, noting that Jeff could have named just about anything else.

“It’s lingerie you idiot,” one person wrote.

“We all know the No. 1 answer is nothing,” another said.

“Nothing, bikini, dress, come on Jeff,” a third posted with the laughing emoji.

Others told Jeff he’s definitely getting “divorced.”

“Why the kitchen … don’t he know that’s where the knives are kept?” another viewer shared.

“Divorce court,” one teased, as another wrote, “And he was never seen again.”

Harvey previously told the “Today” show that the “iconic” series is “tailor-made” for his “gift.”

“They allowed me to put my own little stamp on the show,” he said of the game show’s producers. He also joked about his infamous facial expressions.

“My father made me a peach crate that I could stand on next to him every morning, and he would let me put shaving cream on a Popsicle stick and I was standing shaving next to him…I was practicing my TV show in the mirror. And all I would [do] in that mirror was make faces,” he recalled. “I was late for school every day because I was practicing ‘The Steve Harvey Show.’ “

Harvey has been hosting “Family Feud” since 2010.
