Tom Hanks’ niece had the mother of all meltdowns on ‘Claim To Fame’ the other night after she was the first person to be eliminated from the reality TV show, in which contestants are given clues to guess which famous person each contestant is related to.
Carly Reeves lost the plot as she exited the program, letting off a blood-curdling scream before claiming the clues were too easy and she deserved more camera time:

I mean, that has to be one of the all-time craziest tantrums in TV history, right? That scream from the depths of hell as she was going up the stairs was absolutely mental. Did she even realise she was still being filmed after being voted off?
On the plus side, Carly did prove that it’s not the amount of air time you get, but the quality of it. Her viral meltdown has resulted in UK Twitter users begging for the producers to make a UK version, which is probably a matter of ‘when’ if they keep pumping out clips like this.
Congrats to Chet Hanks, I guess – you’re no longer the most embarrassing member of the Hanks family. Although it’s a close second.
