Who doesn't love a good friendly family game show? For Celebrity Family Feud, which usually airs around 8/7 c, it's the perfect time for family members to gather around the television for some Sunday night fun. Recently, Steve Harvey was joined by guest star Kristen Chenoweth - and it seems ABC should have aired this one when the kids were in bed. Here's what went down on the show.

On August 15th, the Broadway sensation took center stage on Steve Harvey's show, making quite the impression. Chenoweth went head to head against Hocus Pocus actress and comedian Kathy Najimy. While both were faced with numerous rounds, it was one question that Steve asked which triggered Chenoweth to answer something more risqué. She definitely knows how to get a show going, and this answer immediately took the spotlight! Harvey proceeded to question Chenoweth vs. Najimy, "we asked 100 women, after the lips, what is your favorite part of a man to kiss." Sure, there are the basics that could have come right to mind, like the cheek or the forehead - but Chenoweth wickedly turned the question right around to something a little racier.

With both actresses at the ready, Chenoweth slammed her hand down on the buzzer before Nijamy could catch a breath. While the answer was not exactly mentioned, what she did say had the audience gasping in shock. Chenoweth turned to Harvey, "rhymes with heinous." Now, this is not the first time a guest on his show has had Harvey lost for words. Still, considering it was not a perfect rhyme, Harvey knew exactly what Chenoweth meant. After the Wicked star raised many eyebrows, she laughed, apologizing to the crowd, "I'm sorry... I'm a good Christian girl, forgive me!" Harvey scoffed, as earlier he had deemed her as the "nicest woman I've ever met," before sending her into the corner for a self-re-evaluation. LOL. Unfortunately, the word that was meant to rhyme with 'heinous' did not appear on the list - but it did get a laugh from the entire studio!

Maybe Sunday nights are becoming more unpredictable, and it's not just for the average family night on the couch! As Harvey put it, "welcome to Sunday night TV, folks." The team behind the Broadway star could not believe their MVP's answer, but at least a couple million YouTube views won't hurt! What's another viral celebrity moment? This one's for you, Chenoweth!
