In an interview with USA Today, Melissa Joan Hart said, when she saw Vanna White’s face turn into white. She knew that she won a super success on the show.

Melissa Joan Hart prayed for success

The success also came after “The Teenage Witch” celebrated its 25th anniversary. Melissa cracked a joke, ‘ I would like to say that black magic was involved in it.’ But after that she said, to be honest, I prayed for every single round. When I reached the final round I’d closed my eyes and prayed to God to give me focus to read those letters.

For ‘Celebrity Wheel of Fortune’, Melissa’s $1 million success wasn’t just an exception. In 2008, since the Million Dollar was established, only three candidates had won the prize in the constant amalgamated wheel. But Melissa was not only required to land on the Million Dollar twice, but she also had to compete against her friend. Also, she had to solve both puzzles. Although the Party of Five stars is a Wheel “shark,” Hart told she had sharpened her Wheel skills after giving multiple tries to the Wheel of Fortune app. She had done all this after putting her son Tucker to sleep.
