Celebrity Mole: Hawaii is the third season (and first celebrity edition) of the American version of The Mole and aired from January 8 to February 12, 2003. It was filmed on the Big Island of Hawaii in October 2002. On December 17, 2002, a fire on the second floor of the Hollywood Center Studios in Los Angeles caused the offices of Stone Stanley Entertainment to be flooded with water from sprinklers and fire hoses.[1] All of the tapes from the series were found soaked in 18 inches of water, but they were all recovered, dried out, and ultimately were unharmed.

Seven celebrities competed in physical and mental challenges while trying to determine who among them had been hired to sabotage their efforts to earn money from these challenges. In the end, model Frederique van der Wal was unmasked as the mole and comedian Kathy Griffin took home the $233,000 grand prize. In contrast with celebrity editions of some reality and game shows, each contestant played for his or her own benefit rather than for charity.[2][3]
This season was presented by Ahmad Rashad.
Celebrity Mole Hawaii was most recently reran as a marathon on Fox Reality on March 1, 2008.[4]
