“We’re going with Tom Holland,” Clay responded, referring to the Marvel superstar.
The comedian looked confused as he leaned towards the American Idol icon and asked: “Who is Tom Holland?”
“Tom Holland, this is Spider-Man,” Clay explained, while Steve looked at him with a puzzled expression.
Steve Harvey shocked fans during a recent episode of Celebrity Family Feud when he appeared completely unaware of one of the biggest movie stars in the world.
The hilarious incident occurred after the 67-year-old comedian, who was recently accused of cheating on the game show, asked contestant Clay Aiken to “name a famous ‘Tom’ that a girl would love to go to prom with.”
Clay comforted Steve and said, “Listen, it was the 15-year-old who made it up. Don’t feel bad, Steve.”
The response on TikTok was swift: one commented: “How come Steve doesn’t know him?” and another posted: “Isn’t that Steve saying, ‘Who is Tom Holland?'”
A different follower chimed in: “I didn’t know Tom Holland is Spider-Man?”
Holland, a 28-year-old British heartthrob, has played the Marvel superhero in three films: 2017’s Homecoming, 2019’s Far From Home and 2021’s No Way Home. He is also dating Zendaya.
The gaffe comes after Steve repeated a risqué answer from a contestant that he had never said on TV before.
Steve had the crowd laughing out loud after shouting the phrase NSFW during a confrontation between rocker Chris Daughtry and the band Papa Roach.
The hilarious incident occurred after Harvey asked the poll question: “Name something Mrs. Peanut might do to Mr. Peanut if she gets angry.
Among the typical responses like cutting, eating or turning Mr. Peanut into butter, Papa Roach drummer Tony Palermo stood out with his unique response: “Cracking his nuts.”
Harvey fist-bumped Palermo and added, “That’s what I love about the band, they have that really good humor.”
“We’re going with Tom Holland,” Clay responded, referring to the Marvel superstar.

He continued: “I’ve never been able to say this on television until now…” before shouting in a high-pitched cry: “Crack his nuts!”
The answer did not appear on the board, prompting Harvey to respond: “I don’t know how the hell that’s not there, that’s a very well thought out answer.”
The hilarious episode comes almost a week after Harvey was left in disbelief after a player named him as a TV presenter that women fantasised about, leading amused viewers to say he looked like he was having a heart attack.
She doubled over in laughter after contestant Ava’s quick, confident response, before asking for her name not to be on the board.
It all started when Steve asked, “Which TV host, past or present, have you had romantic fantasies about?”
Without hesitation, Ava walked in and said, “Steve Harvey,” before bringing her hand to her mouth and gasping.
“Take care little one, take care,” Steve replied before asking her age.
“I’m 24,” Ava revealed, causing a doubly shocked Steve to cringe: “Oh God, no.”

He continued: “I’ve never been able to say this on television until now…” before shouting in a high-pitched cry: “Crack his nuts!”
He then grimaced and expressed even more unease as he prepared for the board to reveal whether Ava’s answer was correct.
“Please don’t be up there,” he said, but seconds later it was revealed that “Steve Harvey” was the top answer with a total of 17 points.
The studio audience erupted in laughter and Steve immediately leaned back.
Viewers at home couldn’t help but laugh at the scenes either.
On Instagram, one noted: “He had a heart attack.”
Echoing a similar sentiment, another said: “The way he died twice.”
A third wrote: “It looked like it was about to collapse and had to be removed.”
“He didn’t expect that,” a fourth commented along with laughing and crying emojis.
A fifth said: “Steve Harvey feared for his life.”
At the end of the round, it was revealed that Steve was closely followed by Jimmy Fallon as the TV host women fantasize about.
Bob Barker, Alex Trebek, Regis Philbin, Conan O’Brien, Donny Osmond and Jeff Probst were also on the list.
These days, Family Feud is no stranger to X-rated responses.

He then doubled over with excitement when he found out that his name was at the top of the scoreboard with 17 points.
Steve topped the chart alongside Jimmy Fallon, Bob Barker and the late Alex Trebek.
In June, a clip resurfaced showing Steve high-fiving a contestant’s husband after his wife gave him a cheeky response.
In the scene, the game was momentarily derailed when Steve asked both families to “name a place where you meet and hold on to each other.”
After her family members had already correctly guessed the roller coaster, speedboat and airplane, contestant Jeni couldn’t help but take a risk and answered “the bedroom.”
The studio erupted in applause at the bold move, with her loved ones cheering, while her husband, Lance, immediately jumped in with a high-five.
