After all - look at this thread and all of us hating Heidi! There's always a group b*tch to stir up trouble - remember Melrose Place?! That was the epitome of 'I love to hate her' characters! LOL

I loved the ages the woman 'say' they are. FH walked in while I was watching, and this beat woman said she was 24...she is so obviously older. FH was like, if shes 24 I am 19
The alltime best moment was when he went to get back on the horse and almost fell. hilarious, you can tell that he is not the sharpest knife in the drawer, by FAR.

Re: Joe Millionare
I definitely think they made him choose Heidi for dramatic effect. I can't believe anyone would choose her on his own, especially since he's suppossedly trying to wean out the golddiggers
I thought it was pretty funny when he said he thought it was light out when he saw that one girl's hair

IT'S ‘THE $50M LIE'By DAVID K. LI and ANGELINA CAPPIELLO
------------------------------------------------------------
January 7, 2003 --
It may look like a fairy tale on television, but the new show 'Joe Millionaire' had no happy endings for several would-be princesses from the New York area.
Three women who appeared in the first episode of the show - which transports 20 women to a chateau in France and follows them as they compete for the affections of a man they believe has just inherited $50 million - watched the program at a Gramercy Park bar last night, still bitter about the experience.
'I thought it would be fun, but it was more stressful than fun,' said Alison, a 28-year-old Manhattan graphic artist, who would not give her last name. 'It was a faux fairy tale and we were manipulated. I feel betrayed by the $50 million lie.
'The producers promised it would be a good time either way, but I didn't have a good time,' she added.
Fellow contestant Zora Sabrina, 29, of Princeton, N.J., added that she didn't appreciate people calling her and her fellow bachelorettes 'gold-diggers.'
'There were some incredibly strong women there,' she said.
The first episode ended with construction worker and fake millionaire Evan Marriott giving pearl necklaces to 12 women - a symbol that they had survived the first round.
Both Zora and Alison received the gift.

But one woman who did not move on to the second round said she, too, felt insulted by the notion that Marriott could ever be her Mr. Right.'You can put a monkey in a suit and he's still a monkey,' said Mary Huang, 25, of North Caldwell, N.J.
For his part, Marriott - the $19,000-a-year construction worker from Southern California who goes by the name 'Evan Wallace' in the not-so-reality reality show - said he felt bad lying to the 20 bachelorettes.
'I've never lied about anything to get a girl in bed,' the 28-year-old hard-hat confessed to viewers. 'Now I'm living the biggest lie in front of America.'
But that's the whole point of the show. In the ultimate test of true love vs. money, the producers originally told the women that Marriott was an average guy - only to then say that he'd just inherited $50 million.
On air, many of the women's jaws dropped when told of the $50-million inheritance at a group meeting.
Later in the show, Marriott wines and dines the women at the chateau. He also takes the women on romantic dates during which they ride horses, fence and - but of course! - lip-lock.
It was a long way from where the romantic hero of the series grew up in Virginia Beach, where he was so undisciplined as a teen that his parents sent him to a military high school.
'I still had fun with all the girls, but we were all betrayed,' Huang said.

Re: Joe Millionare
im a little confused by the whole premise of this show.....if a man wanted to find a woman who loved him for who he is and not for his money (as evan says on the show), wouldn't he have to be a rich guy who makes believe he is poor instead of a poor guy who pretends to be wealthy??
