Snoop Dogg, Vanessa Williams and Sherri Shepherd are among the stars booked for this month’s 10th anniversary celebration of “Who Wants To Be A Millionaire” when host Regis Philbin returns to ABC for a two-week primetime event.
As a special feature, each episode will conclude with a celebrity player taking the hot seat, hoping to correctly answer a single question worth $50,000 for his or her favorite charity.
CNN’s senior political correspondent Candy Crowley joins the previously-announced roster of experts for 10th anniversary’s “Ask The Expert” lifeline: Wolf Blitzer, Connie Chung, Sam Donaldson, Gwen Ifill, Ken Jennings, Bill Nye, Jodi Picoult, Cokie Roberts, Mo Rocca and George Stephanopoulos.
“Ask the Expert” and the substantially faster gameplay featuring time limits on every question are imported from the daytime version of “Who Wants To Be A Millionaire,” hosted by Meredith Vieira.
