“Family Feud” has remained so popular for so long because it often results in hilarious, off-color moments when the questions get a little spicy. Steve Harvey is an expert at taking full advantage of these situations. Things really get wild on “Celebrity Family Feud” when our favorite stars have to deal with Harvey’s silliness.

But on Thursday’s episode of “Celebrity Family Feud,” Megan Thee Stallion popped in to compete and got a polarizing question. Steve asked the “Savage” rapper to “Name something you’ve done to your mate’s feet?” The Hot Girl immediately said “massage,” which was deemed the No. 1 answer because it was so close to “rubbed ‘em.”

Though Meg seemed to just be having a good time, some of her fans took offense with the question, because she was shot in the feet in 2020. As previously reported by The Root, the Grammy winner was shot by Canadian rapper Tory Lanez, who was found guilty and sentenced to 10 years in prison.

No one really takes “Celebrity Family Feud” seriously, but Megan’s loyal fans, the Hotties, were not happy about the question.

One person wrote on X, “They are wrong for that.”

Someone else pointed out that this felt deliberate, writing on X, “Somebody over at Family Feud thinks [they’re] funny.”

As weird as this question was, a much more fun moment happened elsewhere in the show when Harvey asked Meg to “Name something that might be curvy,” and she gave the only correct answer when she said “me.”

There’s a lot of reasons why this question is creepy, but using it for Megan Thee Stallion was ill-advised. Even if she doesn’t seem offended on the show, it’s not what you want viewers talking about after the episode airs.
