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:
“The star is the ultimate American verification of Jean Jacques Rousseau’s Emile. His mere existence proves the perfectability of any man or woman. Oh wonderful pliability of human nature, in a society where anyone can become a celebrity! And where any celebrity ... may become a star!”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
“Life is a train of moods like a string of beads, and, as we pass through them, they prove to be many-colored lenses which paint the world their own hue, and each shows only what lies in its focus.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
