Beginning in Season 3, some episodes featured celebrities with a common bond playing for charity. During these episodes, the first contestant to hit 21 not only won the round but also $500 for their charity (in lieu of the bonus prize) and an additional Power Chip, increasing the maximum possible number of chips to five.

Famous quotes containing the words celebrity and/or shows:
“To become a celebrity is to become a brand name. There is Ivory Soap, Rice Krispies, and Philip Roth. Ivory is the soap that floats; Rice Krispies the breakfast cereal that goes snap-crackle-pop; Philip Roth the Jew who masturbates with a piece of liver.”
—Philip Roth (b. 1933)
“Some think to avoid the influence of metaphysical errors, by paying no attention to metaphysics; but experience shows that these men beyond all others are held in an iron vice of metaphysical theory, because by theories that they have never called in question.”
—Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)
