Attractive yes, but does she know where New York is?

Sure she will. But if she has the proper financial adviser she will also have a few million bucks.

When asked about the reason why some Americans could not locate the U.S. on a world map, Upton said:....

Talk about a loaded question. Any knowledgeable contestant who answered the question honestly would be immediately eliminated.

$25,000 a day equals 9 million, 125 thousand dollars a year. That would buy a lot of maps.

With plastic surgery and care, she can live off her looks well into her 40s.
