WATCH: ‘Jeopardy’ Contestant Mistakes Janet Jackson for Ariana Grande

During tonight’s episode of Jeopardy!, a contestant answered “Who is Ariana Grande” to a clue after a video played of the superstar Janet Jackson, leading viewers to post the video on Twitter.

The clue asked, “As the recipient of the 2018 icon award, she took “Control” and took to the stage in her first live TV performance in nearly a decade,” followed by a video of the performance. The first contestant to ring in to answer replied, “Who is Ariana Grande?” which was incorrect.

Viewers of the game show took to Twitter to talk about the mistake, with one user writing “Between this and the Chaka Khan moment earlier in the week, it’s clear our nation’s nerds are in desperate need of doing some music icon homework.”

The Clue Hinted at Jackson’s Identity

Janet Jackson was the correct answer, as she was the recipient of the 2018 icon award and the singer of the song “Control.”

The hint about the performance being her first live one in over a decade should have been context for the contestant, as Grande would have been 14 years old a decade prior to 2018. Jackson is 53 years old now whereas Ariana Grande is 26; it’s possible the contestant saw the high ponytail in the video and just spouted out the first thing that came to his mind though.

A Contestant Recently Confused Chaka Khan and Shaka Zulu

On April 27, Jeopardy! had another hand-to-forehead moment when a contestant answered the clue “Here and on each September 24, Zulu celebrate a holiday that was named in honor of this warrior leader of the early 1800s” with “Who is Chaka Khan?” when the answer to the clue was “Who is Shaka Zulu?”

Chaka Khan is the stage name of Yvette Marie Stevens, and she is an American singer and songwriter. Shaka Zulu, as the clue suggests, was an 1800s warrior leader.
