Jimmy Kimmel has returned with a brand new season of 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?' on ABC and viewers are already lapping it up. They seem to be more enthused about the fact that they get to see their favorite celebrity and a civilian play the game in one episode. While 'The Last O.G.' actress Tiffany Haddish played for the She Ready Foundation, firefighter Oliver Fry played to win $1M. 

Although Episode 1 was thrilling, what caught fans' attention was the moment Tiffany decided to take her wig off while answering one of the questions. It was a question about the film 'The Sopranos'. It read: "In the infamous, cut-to-black final scene of 'The Sopranos', Tony and his family are sitting in a booth at a restaurant snacking on what?" The options were shrimp cocktail, nachos, onion rings, and chicken fingers. 

Tiffany was playing for $125,000 and even used one of the lifelines to answer it. Unfortunately, she never got the correct answer for it and was extremely stressed about which of the options she should go with. And while contemplating, she took off her wig. Jimmy was surprised and so were the fans, who appreciated Tiffany for doing it.

"Watching @TiffanyHaddish on #WhoWantsToBeAMillionaire She looks better without the wig when I thought it was impossible for her to look even better," a fan commented, while another shared: "@TiffanyHaddish you should never wear a wig. You are so pretty without it. #WhoWantsToBeAMillionaire."



 



 

"@TiffanyHaddish took her wig off! That question is REALLY getting to her! @MillionaireTV #WhoWantsToBeAMillionaire," a user tweeted, another pointed out: "Y’all. Tiffany Haddish just slid her wig off on #WhoWantsToBeAMillionaire like it was a stocking cap."



 



 

"We just witnessed our first contestant with a wig in 21 years! #WhoWantsToBeAMillionaire," a viewer expressed. "They shouldn't have advertised Tiffany taking off her wig because the surprise won't be funny anymore when it actually happens lol #WhoWantsToBeAMillionaire," another wrote before the episode aired.
