Have you always wanted to show off flashy cars and cozy new living room sets on national television? "The Price is Right" may be famous for Bob Barker (and now Drew Carey)'s lovely ladies, but now "The Price is Right" is holding a contest to find its first male model.
In the game show's nearly 40-year history, the prizes have almost always been displayed by female models, but now one guy will get to try out the gig for a week on the CBS show, which is currently hosted by Drew Carey.
CBS has announced that the search for a male model will air as a five-episode web series on "The Price is Right's" official website and on its YouTube channel in late September. An open casting call will be held in Los Angeles on Thursday, August 30, when contestants will be judged on "qualities such as their verbal skills, posing and ability to properly showcase a product," a release revealed. The producers will be the judges, along with the show's female models.

You would think that women want to see male models, and I’m sure some do. It is still surprising how many women flock to purchase magazines where the models are all knock-out drop-dead gorgeous women.
I’ve had women explain it to me like this. Women like to see other women wearing good fashion, so they can either compare, or know what’s “IN”.
I’m not sure what the take on male models on the Price is Right will be. We’ll evidently see in short order.
...must be able to lift 80 pounds and look FABULOUS in a thong.
Hell, I'm in...
It’s about time! Now, maybe all the men on FR will stop complaining about women on submarines, the infantry and Danica Patrick!/sarc
“Must be able to bench-press Drew.”
I wonder if they’ve ever heard of JC Penney.. cause that’s where they’re going.
"The Price is Wrong, bitch!"
This guy will be as fruity as Sangria.
That would be a good job for him. He’s probably played ‘The Price is Right’ game before.
