'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire': Will Karamo Brown take home $1 million? Thrilled fans cheer him on for big win

Watching Brown raise funds for Hollywood Food Coalition on ‘Who Wants To Be A Millionaire’ shouldn’t come as a surprise taking into consideration his contribution towards minority communities

The January 10 episode of 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire' witnessed three celebrity contestants vying for the ultimate million-dollar prize to donate to various charities. After Amanda Peet's $125,000 win and Zachary Quinto's exit from the show following a wrong answer with only $32,000, 'Queer Eye' fame Karamo Brown graced the quiz-based show to support the charity Hollywood Food Coalition. 

Brown was tagged along by Bobby Berk, who served as his "intellectual friend" on the show. However, the reality TV star chose to describe Berk as his "wingman". As the game commenced, Brown put up a great show with his quick answers. In no time he managed to win $8,000. However, before he could take on the next question, Jimmy Kimmel had to conclude the episode as they ran out of time. 

It was rather interesting to see how Brown drew references from his own experiences as he navigated the game. Even in the last question which read, "Dramamine was first tested on US Soldiers in 1948 during an experiment aptly titled 'Operation' what?" with the options, "Seasickness", "Heartburn", "Arthritis" and "Amnesia", Brown was able to get the right answer owing to his fear of water. 

Having won $8,000, it remains to be seen if he can make it till the end and become the ultimate winner. Watching Brown raise funds for Hollywood Food Coalition on ‘Who Wants To Be A Millionaire’ shouldn’t come as a surprise taking into consideration his contribution towards minority communities.

In 2014, he partnered with pharmaceutical company Janssen to empower the gay and bisexual community and founded 6in10.org in 2015. 6in10.org works towards combating the stigma surrounding HIV and provides mental health support to the Black LGBT community. 

What is Karamo Brown's net worth?

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Brown is reportedly worth $4 million. His total wealth is believed to be a culmination of his work on all the reality shows. His books that are available for sale on Amazon, 'Barned & Noble', have also contributed to his total net worth. However, not much is known about the salary he draws for appearing on the shows. 

Meanwhile, fans are happy to see him on 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire' and are seen wishing him luck on Twitter for the rest of the game. One tweeted, "Watching @Karamo and @bobbyberk on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire I’m so happy" and another added, "Watching @Karamo & @bobbyber on Who Wants to be a Millionaire is giving me so much f***ing life rn"

'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire' airs on Sundays and Wednesdays at 9 pm ET on ABC.
