Celebrity Shows
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:
“Power is not of a man. Wealth does not center in the person of the wealthy. Celebrity is not inherent in any personality. To be celebrated, to be wealthy, to have power requires access to major institutions.”
—C. Wright Mills (1916–1962)
“... the outcome of the Clarence Thomas hearings and his subsequent appointment to the Supreme Court shows how misguided, narrow notions of racial solidarity that suppress dissent and critique can lead black folks to support individuals who will not protect their rights.”
—bell hooks (b. c. 1955)
