Claim to Fame Season 3: Who Is Danny Related To?

In Claim to Fame Season 3 Episode 5, some of the contestants appear to have deduced Danny’s actual identity, coming to the same conclusion as many internet users did online a couple of weeks back. Although Dedrick is the one who went home at the end of the episode, Danny’s future on Claim to Fame has suddenly become complicated.

Here is what we have found out about Danny’s relative in Claim to Fame Season 3.

Is Danny from Claim to Fame Season 3 Marc Anthony’s nephew?

Yes, it’s quite possible that Danny from Claim to Fame Season 3 is Marc Anthony’s nephew. However, this hasn’t been officially confirmed yet as Danny is still part of the competition after episode 5.

In the episode, Adam and Hud select Danny’s Wine Room clue after winning the senses challenge. The puzzle they encounter includes a man standing over a fire, the phrase “Veni Vidi Vici,” a star that has a microphone on it, an owl with a speech balloon, and a falling man. In addition, the letter J is printed in the lower part of the page. (via Screen Rant)

Hud theorizes that the second part of the clue means a superstar singer who fell in love with Jennifer Lopez. Adam subsequently speaks to Mackenzie and Dedrick, and they agree with Hud and Adam’s assessment. The man standing over fire can mean the 2004 film Man on Fire, in which Anthony portrays the wealthy businessman Samuel Ramos.

In earlier episodes as well, multiple clues potentially indicated the relationship between Danny and Anthony. During the two truths and a lie segment, Danny said that his uncle was his celebrity relative. He also said that this person was a professional wrestler and won a Grammy. Notably, Anthony has won four Grammy Awards to date.

Moreover, the “alimony” clue from the spelling challenge in episode 2 could have been a reference to Anthony and Lopez’s much-publicized divorce. Danny also mentioned in the same episode that he was very familiar with the sound of bongos, which is perhaps related to the fact that Anthony has produced salsa music. During his confessional in episode 3, Danny revealed he “grew up in the 80s where pop culture was king.” This is another indication that he grew up in a family where pop culture was important. Additionally, maracas, which Anthony has regularly used in his songs, is prominently present in the clue wall and is one of the words in the above-mentioned spelling challenge of episode 2.

People on Reddit have seemingly deduced that Danny’s real name is Nael Zayas. In the coming weeks, we will get more information on whether Danny is really Anthony’s nephew.
