Interesting read - especially the parts about the girls not being just "Barbie dolls".

I have walked up those steps, they are very steep. I can't imagine doing it in really high heels and a short dress, while looking at the camera.

(When we were in the studio, we also saw many sets of the same shoes in shoe boxes in "Little Brown Bags.")

Were you trying out for one of the models' positions? Or are you a future contestant? Inquiring minds want to know!

The models are a popular part of this game show that “has no trivia, no stunts, no skill,” as Mr. Mandel put it. “The first time I heard about it, I thought, there’s no game.”
First impressions are usually right, Howie! :P
