Claim to Fame just crowned another successful winner.
Gabriel Cannon walked away with $100,000, the title of the second Claim to Fame winner of the series, and as part of the most buzzed-about season yet.
The charismatic player was fun to watch all season and was such a deceptively good player that one of the most satisfying moments of the finale was knowing that first-boot Carly had to eat her words about the man she assumed was "too dumb" to figure anything out actually outplayed them all well.
Of course, the road to this point was unpredictable, and the two-hour finale made it unclear who would walk away with the win.
The finale delivered some twists, turns, and potentially damaging flaws in this game setup that must be rectified.

America’s favorite guessing game reached a dramatic conclusion on Monday with the unmasking (hint, hint!) of Claim to Fame‘s four remaining celebrities — and the winner of Season 2.
Claim to Fame Season 2: Every Secret Celebrity Identity Revealed View List
Somewhat predictably, the first hour ended with Gabriel eliminating Karsyn, whose celebrity relative — she’s the niece of NASCAR great Dale Earnhardt Jr. — had already been named by several players. Gabriel being the one to send Karsyn home also felt very salt-in-wound, as she was still processing the discovery that he lied to everyone all season about his own famous family member.

ABC’s Claim to Fame Season 2 is almost over, and the winner gets to take home the grand prize. So far this season, fans have watched the relatives of famous folks attempt to hide their identity from the others in the house. And the final celeb relative standing wins. Here’s what the winner receives.
[Spoiler alert: Claim to Fame Season 2 spoilers below regarding the finale.]
What does the ‘Claim to Fame’ Season 2 winner get?
The Claim to Fame Season 2 winner receives $100,000.
Compared to other reality TV shows currently on the air, $100,000 doesn’t feel like much. Survivor and The Amazing Race — both CBS reality competition shows — offer $1 million grand prizes. With that said, $100,000 is still a good chunk of change. Season 1 winner Loreal Palmer, Keke Palmer’s older sister, explained what she planned to do with her earnings after she won.
“I want to start my own production company,” she told USA Today.

[Warning: The following contains Major spoilers through Claim to Fame Season 2 Episode 8.] Claim to Fame comes to a close on Monday, August 28. The two-hour Season 2 finale will reveal who walks away with the $100,000. Episode 9 kicks off at 9/8c on ABC and will send one of the final four packing before Episode 10 crowns the winner. Will it be Karsyn, Monay, Chris, or Gabriel who walks away victorious? Let’s look at their performances throughout the season. Gabriel is the clear front runner, as he’s won the most challenges and his pop culture knowledge seems to run deepest out of everyone in the final four. Monay has been a strong theorist throughout the season, but she did think Hugo’s Elton John theory held weight. Gabriel, on the other hand, didn’t buy into that idea and was the only one who got close to deciphering the true meaning of Chris’s clues. Chris’s relative, if you...

[Warning: The following contains Major spoilers for Claim to Fame Season 2 Episode 6.] No one realized how good Olivia’s Claim to Fame game was until she got herself eliminated. The Episode 6 guess-off became her downfall when she incorrectly guessed that Karsyn was related to NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon. While Olivia was wrong about Karsyn, no one came remotely close to predicting the identity of her own celebrity relative. As fans learned in the Monday, July 31 installment, Olivia’s “claim to fame” is The Masked Singer judge and former Playboy bunny Jenny McCarthy, her mother’s sister. She feels the McCarthy hints on the clue wall (a bunny and a mask) were fairly obvious. But unlike Tom Hanks’ niece, Carly, Olivia’s strategy was to draw attention to her wall clues early on and remain nonchalant. “I kind of took Carly’s plan and did the opposite,” ...

After shockingly eliminating his closest friend in the house last week, Claim To Fame contestant Cole knew he was on borrowed time, and his game came crumbling down on Monday’s (July 24) episode. Cole sent Shayne home last week after correctly guessing that she was the daughter of Eddie Murphy. But backstabbing his closest ally caused the knives to come out for Cole this week, with Karsyn ultimately picking him for elimination and correctly guessing that his celebrity relative is Alicia Keys. Speaking to People about his time on the show Cole said, “I didn’t actually know that I was going to pick Shayne until I was actually standing up there,” adding that he “was going back and forth between Karsyn and Shayne and the gameplay.” “I could go Karsyn and I could possibly go home, and if I’m going home, then I’m not playing the game.
