Michelle Buteau's squad triumphed against Fifth Harmony vocalist Normani in a decisive Celebrity Family Feud victory on August 21, 2025. In Episode 7 of Season 11, the comedian and TV personality faced off against the singer in what became a one-sided duel.
Celebrity Family Feud host Steve Harvey posed the question to both celebrity families during the featured round:
"When you picture the man of your dreams, he's holding what?"
Buteau's team demonstrated remarkable coordination by accurately selecting five of the six available responses on the board. Meanwhile, Normani's team struggled throughout the session, unable to get even one accurate response. The lopsided outcome demonstrated the unpredictability of the famous ABC game show concept. Celebrity Family Feud pits well-known celebrities and their selected family members against one another in survey-based tasks.
Each team attempts to estimate the most popular replies from 100 survey participants. The show mixes entertainment value with philanthropic fundraising, as victorious teams raise funds for their chosen nonprofit organizations. This duel showed how rapidly fortunes may change in competitive game show conditions.
What happened during the Normani VS Michelle episode of Celebrity Family Feud?
The round began with Steve Harvey calling Gijs from Michelle's team and Barbara from Normani's squad for the traditional face-off on Celebrity Family Feud. Both contestants approached the podium to compete for control of the board. Barbara buzzed in first and confidently answered, "his private." Her response drew loud reactions from the studio audience and visible embarrassment from Normani, who covered her face with her hands.
Steve Harvey approached Barbara with his characteristic humor. He reminded everyone that she was Normani's grandmother while playfully mimicking her gesture. Unfortunately, her answer wasn't among the survey responses. Gijs then got his chance to answer but guessed "A baby," which also missed the mark. The opening exchange foreshadowed the struggles ahead for both teams.
After the unsuccessful face-off attempts, Steve moved to Andrea from Normani's team. She drew a blank and couldn't provide an answer, shifting opportunity to Michelle's side. Padma from Team Michelle answered "Flowers" and scored the first points. This correct response gave Michelle's team control of the board and momentum for the remainder of the round.
Steve jokingly commented that Barbara's earlier answer was "fit to go viral" before transitioning to the main game. The winning team now had the chance to build their score.
Team Michelle demonstrated remarkable chemistry once they gained control. Joyelle correctly guessed "A big pile of money," adding another point to their growing total in Celebrity Family Feud.
Dan followed with "Jewelry," which also appeared on the board. The team's confidence visibly increased with each successful answer. Michelle herself contributed with "My face," earning praise from her teammates and the audience. The comedian's playful response perfectly matched the show’s entertaining atmosphere.
Gijs delivered one of the round's most memorable moments with his cultural reference. He explained:
"In Holland, there's a saying, 'love goes through the stomach,' so he's holding a plate of food."
His answer proved correct, demonstrating how different cultural perspectives can align with survey responses. The team had now identified five correct answers with only one remaining. The momentum seemed unstoppable as Michelle's family approached a potential clean sweep.
What was the final verdict?
Padma attempted to clear the board but guessed "Keys to a house," which wasn't listed. This marked their first strike in an otherwise flawless performance. Joyelle tried "Weights" next, earning their second strike. The pressure mounted as they approached the three-strike limit.
Dan's answer, "He's holding down a job," drew enthusiastic crowd support. Steve Harvey agreed it deserved to be on the board, but it wasn't among the survey responses. This third strike ended their turn. Control shifted to Normani's team for their chance to steal points. They needed just one correct answer to claim victory and all accumulated points.
Normani guessed "Keys to a car," but this answer also missed the mark. Her team's inability to score even once sealed their defeat. Steve revealed the final answer as "Puppy/Animal," completing the board. Michelle's team celebrated their comprehensive 5-0 Celebrity Family Feud victory, earning maximum points for their chosen charity while providing memorable television entertainment.
