Format

edit

There are five contestants. To start, they are given a series of questions. If they answer correctly, they get to choose which celebrity they think will win a physical challenge. If their celebrity loses, both the contestant and the celebrity leave. This repeats with different challenges until the final.

In the final, all 5 celebrities return for a final challenge. The remaining contestant must answer four questions and for every question they get correct, they can choose another celebrity they think will win. If one of the celebrities they choose wins, the contestant wins a prize.
