LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: The celebrity episode of 'Wheel of Fortune' has aired and we have many revelations and gossip to report. First of all, Vanna White killed it as a contestant on Wheel of Fortune, as her performance became an example that prompted host Pat Sajak to share her example with celebrity contestants Mayim Bialik and Ken Jennings. This crossover between 'Wheel of Fortune' and 'Jeopardy!' made for a lot of fun on stage, with Pat Sajak's snide remarks to contestants Mayim Bialik and Ken Jennings as they struggled to win, and Vanna White literally having her main character moment on the show.

Sajak's co-host Vanna White was not behind the wheel this time and was seen playing the game. Sajak's daughter Maggie Sajak, who took a seat next to her father to co-host the game. Mayim got off to a rough start when she had trouble placing the words, giving Ken an easy win. To make it easy, Vanna showed the contestants how to play the game.

Funny or fancy? 

After Mayim had a rough first toss-up puzzle, getting only a few letters incorrect and giving Ken an easy win when Mayim guessed 'Funny Meeting You Here' instead of 'Fancy Meeting You Here.'

Later, Vanna showed the 'Jeopardy!' crew how to play the game. From then on, Vanna became an example for Mayim and Ken. Vanna soon got the chance to pick out the first letter for the puzzle. After choosing the popular letter "S," Pat, clearly impressed, congratulated his co-host on the "logical" pick. Like a proud friend, Pat said, "See how logical that is?" Vanna got all the answers right word by word and soon Pat looked at Mayim with sarcasm in his eyes and said, "pay attention" while slyly adding shade to the statement. 

'I hope you're paying attention to her'

After Vanna kept acing the game, Pat told Ken and Mayim, "Ken, Mayim, I hope you're paying attention to her." But, the end stunned us when Vanna, who clearly aced the game since the start. Eventually, Vanna completed two out of the three words in the puzzle, giving Mayim an easy win, which seemed scripted at best. Fans were quite thrilled to watch Vanna play 'Wheel of Fortune' and wrote, "Vanna playing Celebrity Wheel of Fortune is everything." While another chimed in, "Now the Celebrity Wheel of Fortune is Vanna, Ken, and Mayim playing, wow." One user appreciated Ken's appearance on the show and wrote, "Great seeing Ken twice in a row tonight!! Best @Jeopardy host." While one fan wrote something that we all have in common, "Just me, watching Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune back-to-back."
