Celebrity Game Face is an American game show that premiered on July 6, 2020, on E! Network. The show is hosted by Kevin Hart and features celebrity couples playing hilarious games from the comfort of their own homes. In each episode, three couples compete for the title of "Game Night Champion" and a donation to their chosen charity.
In season 3 episode 2, titled "Battle Of The Network Hosts," three pairs of famous hosts go head-to-head in a series of outrageous challenges. The first couple is Brooke Baldwin and her husband James Fletcher, a CNN anchor and producer respectively. Their competitors are Jerry O'Connell, from Bravo's "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," and his wife, actress Rebecca Romijn. The final pair is Giuliana and Bill Rancic, former hosts of E!'s "Fashion Police" and a "Celebrity Apprentice" winner, respectively.
The episode begins with the couples getting suited up in their virtual reality headsets and transported to a wild virtual world. Kevin Hart greets them and explains the first game, called "Up Against the Clock." In this game, the couples must complete a series of challenges in under 60 seconds, such as popping balloons with their partner, pretending to ride a horse, and balancing a stack of cups using only one hand. The couple that completes the most challenges wins the round.
Next up is the game "Musical Charades," where the celebrities must act out famous song lyrics while their partners attempt to guess the correct song. The lyrics range from classic rock hits to modern pop songs, and the couples must use their acting skills to get their partners to guess the song in under 30 seconds. Again, the couple with the most correct answers wins the round.
The final game is called "Finger Puppets," and it requires the couples to use their fingers to create a puppet show based on a celebrity-related scenario. For example, one scenario requires the couples to act out the Kardashians at Christmas, complete with Kim and Kanye rapping about their love for one another. Another scenario has the couples creating a puppet version of Kevin Hart himself, complete with his signature laugh. The most ridiculous and entertaining show wins the final round, and the winning couple is crowned "Game Night Champions."
Throughout the episode, Kevin Hart provides hilarious commentary and encouragement to the couples as they compete. He also asks them questions about each other and their quarantine experiences, offering a glimpse into their personal lives. The show also features behind-the-scenes footage of the couples setting up their game night areas and getting ready for the challenges.
Overall, "Battle Of The Network Hosts" is a laugh-out-loud episode of Celebrity Game Face that showcases the comedic talents of some of the entertainment industry's most beloved hosts. By the end of the episode, viewers will have gained a new appreciation for the art of finger puppetry and a renewed appreciation for the power of laughter.
