Tom Hanks' niece Carly Reeves was the first to be eliminated from the second season of the ABC reality TV series Claim To Fame. The show features contestants who are related to a celebrity, and the participants quickly sussed out that Carly was related to the Forrest Gump actor.
Carly's dramatic exit from the show, hosted by Kevin and Frankie Jonas, was a sight to behold. She started off by screaming insults at the other contestants and proclaiming that she "should've been here longer." Her tirade became even more intense when she stormed out of the house, yelling, "His freakin' clues are so freakin' obvious. There’s literally no reference to benches on any other movie. Even Gabriel found that out. He’s not even, like, smart."
Carly was clearly upset by the elimination. She told USA Today that she was "in a complete fog" and "crying so much" that she couldn't even breathe. Despite her behaviour, she insists she has "no regret" and that her emotions were genuine.
Like her famous uncle, Carly is an actor and made her on-screen debut in Hilary Duff's 2004 movie Raise Your Voice. She also starred alongside Tom Hanks in the 2011 romantic comedy Larry Crowne, while her other credits include American Woman and Act of God.
It's clear that the elimination from Claim To Fame was a difficult experience for Carly, but it's equally clear that her acting career is just getting started.
