Laverne Cox Earns Top Score in Password Bonus Round
Laverne Cox has completely dominated.
The Orange Is the New Black star made a jaw-dropping appearance on the April 16 episode of NBC’s Password, leaving host Keke Palmer, regular player Jimmy Fallon, and contestant Saigim visibly shocked in E! News’ exclusive video of her flawless bonus round.
Laverne and Saigim were given 30 seconds to correctly convey and guess 10 passwords from the letters “M” through “V” in the alphabet. Each correct guess would earn Saigim $1,000 and a perfect score would boost her prize to $25,000.
The first eight passwords were a breeze for the pair, with Laverne joking about their height difference being “iconic” when she first stepped up to the podium. After skipping the ninth password, they successfully nailed the tenth one—leaving them just one guess away from victory. With only one second left on the clock, Laverne went back to the skipped password and correctly guessed “ukulele,” securing her teammate the grand prize of $25,000 on Password.
