Gameplay
Three contestants were told some interesting secrets about a panel of five stars. The secrets were given to the producers beforehand in an interview, and the contestants job was to match the secret to the celebrity that gave that secret.
On each secret, a randomizer shuffled money amounts ranging from $120 - $300, and it stops when a player presses a button. The host Eubanks posed the secret and eliminated one stars that did not have the secret whom for fun chose which star had that secret. The contestants then secretly chose which star gave the secret, and then the star was revealed. A correct answer won money according how many contestants got it right; if two or all three players were correct, they split the money (1/3 for all three, and 1/2 for two), but if only one player got it, he/she got the whole pot.
Money values increased at several points of the game. In the final round, all three players would attempt to identify one final secret, called the "Blind Item", which was worth $1,500. In the final round, no stars were able to guess who they thought was the person who had the secret. The player with the most money at the end of the game was the winner, kept the money they earned during the game and won prizes.
In the final segment, and during the end credits, Eubanks would sometimes bring in someone that was related to a secret one of the celebrities had; or he would bring in an item mentioned by a celebrity during the game.
