Joe Millionaire to premiere tonight on Fox

[Texas_Tickle]

Joe Millionaire is set to premiere tonight on Fox and is Fox's answer to "The Bachelor" and "Who Wants to Marry a Millionaire"

Joe Millionaire was filmed at a remote French Castle where 20 to 30 supermodel-quality women are vying for the heart and love of Joe, a handsome and dashing young man.

Oh and Joe is worth $50 million.....but you can't put a price on true love. Or can you?

During the month-long promotional advertisement one of the ladies said "I feel like I am Cinderella and my Prince has finally arrived".

But in reality, our good friend Joe is just a blue-collar "common Joe" who works a $19,000 a year construction job.

But it's true love, so it should not matter if he has $100 million or 25 cents, right?

Do the ladies know that our stud Joe is just another "common Joe"? Yeah, right.

I am willing to bet $50 million that once his "true love" discovers that his wallet is not quite as thick as she thought it would be, she would run away faster than a bum at a job interview.

Joe Millionaire should be called "Who Wants to Marry a Gold-Digging Bimbo".

Well, Cinderella, your clock's about to strike Midnight.

This is gonna be **good**.

What about how the ladies feel when they find out everything he told them was a lie? I sure wouldn't put them up a gold-diggers. They're being dupped!

And who knows... .Maybe True Love will overcome

 

[phfttklr]

I just can't wait to see the expression on the faces of the women when they find out the truth.
Man I hate these "reality" shows.

 

[qjakal]

The idea....

It's a cruel premise, and will inflict a lot of emotional pain on many of the contestants. Therefore it will be a huge success...sad but true. Even sadder, now I'm interested and will likely watch it...lol. Q

 

[JoBelle]

After the fiasco that was the Bachelor, I'm actually thrilled to see this. For the first time, you may see me sitting in front of the tube watching reality televison! LOL

"Yes, after only two days, I just KNEW there was a connection and I can really feel that we're going to have a deep love." WHAT idiots! 25 women groveling for the attentions of one man. THAT is the sad part.

I can promise you this....Those women didn't head to France because they thought they were going to find true love. They went because it was France and they thought they had a 1 in 20 chance of coming out of the show as "Mrs. Fifty-Million Dollar Woman."

When you marry for money, you eventually pay for every penny of it!!! These chickies deserve everything they get! They've earned it!

It's pathetic.
Joby🙄

If anybody thinks that any of these ladies would give Joe the time of day if they knew he made only $19,000 a year, they are kidding themselves.

Fox is not out to make idiots out of these ladies. They will do that, just fine all my themselves.

How shallow and egotistical do you have to be, to ***** yourself on a show like this?

Any pain or emotional distress that these ladies endure is well-deserved, in my opinion. If you are going to try to ***** yourself to a person, simply for the size of the bank account, you deserve what you get.

These ladies are going to get a well-deserved dose of humility.

This show may prove how material we have become. Ideally, the women will be looking for true love, rather than big bucks. But then, they've already been told that he's rich. It would be nice to see him connect with someone who would love him no matter what. But, that ain't likely. I don't plan to watch. We'll hear the blow by blow on the news anyway. They've become more interested in "reality tv" than in reality!

They are not being "dupped". They are being shown a reflection of their true colors that all they are concerned with is a mans' money.
That they are in fact, gold diggin'..... .

While I am not even close to being a millionaire, I do make alot more than 19 K per year.
Fortunatly I have found one of the great ones out there in my love, shygirl(aka patti).

Unfortunatly what will be seen on Fox this evening will be a rude awakening for a large % of women out there that are in it for the $$$ and not for true love.

This is NOT the case for all women out there but for those who are golddiggers, they deserve to be humiliated and humbled.

TTD😉 😀

Just wondering...what kind of construction worker (especially in California) only makes $19,000 per year??? I have friends in construction who make over $30/hour. Maybe he only works one week a year...or he builds really shitty houses.

 

[JPie1]

HeeBee...this is so true where I live, Southern Fairfield County CT, home of the Martha Stewarts and Paul Newmans, rich CEO's of NYC companies..I couldn't imagine a construction worker making only $19,000 a year here.

I was thinking the same thing when I saw the preview for the show. Even a "laborer" on a construction site makes almost 20 bucks an hour!
Maybe he just takes out the trash or is REALLY friggin dumb!

TTD

 

[primetime]

this show will be funny. it is painfully obvious that these women are out for the money. if it was the "Bachelor", then MAYBE you can say they were seeking true love. but they were told this guy is worth 50 million dollars. so, whatever happens to them, they will deserve it.

there is a problem though. what if "Joe" really falls in love with one of these women? then the mere thought of telling them will be traumatic. he essentially lied to them. if the woman truly falls in love with him, and finds out he lied, then all hell breaks loose.

but if I was "Joe" millionaire, i wouldnt' ham it up about the millions. sure, the women will make remarks about the money, but if Joe stays humble and says things like "i'm not into material things too much.." or "...i can be happy living on let's say a $19,000 dollar salary a year. how about you honey?". but if Joe acts likes he is filthy rich, then he is lying.

Fox is a cruel network arent they? but a few words about the Bachelor. i didnt like Aaron at all. i think he is a weasel and really didnt deserve any of the women. plus, can those women (particulary Brooke and Helene) trust Aaron on what he is telling them, KNOWING full well he is dating the other? relationships can be strange......

Maybe he is just now starting construction work. A lot of people start out as a humble apprintance.

It just goes to show how pathetically shallow people are. Somebody said that these women were getting "duped". They have only duped themselves.

If they were not so shallow and materialistic, they would not be in this bind.

Call it what you will, but I call it gold diggin'.

Can't wait when they see that "Prince Joe" is just "Common Joe".

Can't wait to see them get slapped by reality and humility.

Fox is not trying to make fools out of these ladies. They are doing that just fine, all by themselves.

 

[Bagelfather]

But I already know the plot!

This show reminds very much of the themes in "The Great Gatsby." If there is true love it won't survive lies because love cannot be built upon lies.

Fox should just come out with a show called "Gold Digger" and get on with it!

It should be called "Who Wants to Marry a Gold Digging *****".

 

[asutickler]

ROFL! I'll give anyone 3 to 1 that this show produces the mother of all pathetic lawsuits. 😀

"The plaintiff alleges that she declared "Joe" to be the love of her life under the false pretenses of the financial statements issued by the defendant, Fox Television, and is seeking $25 million in actual damages, which is the sum she intended to earn by engaging in matrimony with the man named "Joe." Furthermore, the plaintiff seeks $3.6 billion in punitive damages, as the television program "Joe Millionaire" inaccurately portrayed the defendant as a gold-digging slattern."

Dang, now even I might watch this thing... 😛

I really don't think there will be any lawsuits, because Fox, if they are smart, would require those involved to sign waivers stating they agreed to relase Fox and their affiliates free of litigation or damages.

Fox isn't that stupid.

 

[asutickler]

Hey, I never said that they'd win. Waviers and the like stop folks from winning lawsuits. They're still free to file their suit, contest the wavier, and, naturally, lose their case. 😀

 

[QBWeaver]

So what happened on the show last night?

 

[tklxprt]

Its a great concept for a show. I love it.

 

[Texas_Tickle]

So what happened on the show last night?

Not much really, just the introductions and Even "Joe Millionaire" had to pick 12 ladies out of the 20.

I was suprised that he picked the black chick. Not becuase she is black, but because she is so incredibly shallow. During her "promo profile" she said "I am a 10, baby. I am a princess and my man better treat me like one".

Right when I heard that, a little voice went off in my head that said GOLD DIGGER.

 

[Texas_Tickle]

Its a great concept for a show. I love it.

A trip to France.....$5,000
Staying at a fancy French Castle.....$15,000
Seeing the reaction on the lady's face when she finds that her "Rich Prince" is not really either.............Priceless


There are somethings that money cannot buy, for everything else, there's MasterCard. Accepted by bimbos and gold-diggers, everywhere.

 

[luv2bt&tickled]

First off, it is sad to think that we would take money of love and happiness. Money can't buy you love!
It can't hold you, comfort you when you need comforting. It can't kiss you, and oh those special kisses are the bestest! It can't tickle you. You can't cuddle up to the money...ok but it isn't the same! You can't do so many wonderful things that you do with that special someone
I don't get these type of shows.
For me, this is just my opinion....I'll take true love, happiness and all that goes with it whether it be a lot of money or not! Home is what you make it, money doesn't make the home. Oh sure it can make you more comfortable without a doubt, but it can't make you happy!
With that being said, I think it's time for my nap.

 

[HeBeGeeBee]

Maybe he is just now starting construction work. A lot of people start out as a humble apprintance.

I doubt that...not the way he was handling that front-end loader. I know guys who operate that type of equipment who make big money.

Of course, Fox probably looked at him operating that machinery and said, "Hey, this guy's used to shoveling shit and piling it up...he's the perfect guy to shovel all the shit we want to pile on these unsuspecting gold diggers."
