In a twist that has fans buzzing with excitement and confusion, The Price Is Right host Drew Carey has made headlines after jokingly revealing he had “married” a contestant — all during a live broadcast of the show!
Known for his improvisational humor and laid-back charm, Drew Carey never misses a chance to playfully engage with contestants. But this week’s episode took things to a whole new level when Drew welcomed a new player onto the stage who bore a very familiar name — Carrie.
As the cameras rolled, Drew invited the contestant on stage, noticing the name tag read “Carrie.” With a twinkle in his eye and a classic Drew grin, he greeted the contestant warmly, exclaiming, “I love your name!” before asking, “What’s your last name?”
The contestant responded with “Carrie Clingfus,” prompting Drew to crack the joke that sent the internet into a frenzy. “We should get married!” he quipped. “We’d be Drew Carey and Carrie Clingfus Carey!”
Laughter erupted both on stage and in the audience, and the moment quickly went viral after The Price Is Right shared the clip on Instagram. Announcer George Gray added to the humor by dubbing them “lovebirds,” sending fans into a playful speculation spiral.
But that wasn’t the end of Carrie Clingfus’s on-screen adventure. He was selected to play the popular Freeze Frame game, where he had the chance to win a luxurious vacation — if he could correctly choose the right price from spinning numbers.
