Who Would Want to Date a Millionaire?
I was approached last night to “audition” for “Millionaire Matchmaker.” I have nothing against millionaires or matchmaking, so I checked out the info on the site. The application is 26 pages, and includes provisions such as
You must not be a candidate for public office and must agree not to become one for at least one (1) year following the initial exhibition of the episodes of the Program in which you appear, if selected as a participant.
and penalties of $100,000 per incorrect piece of info you supply them in the application.
It’s kind of fascinating the rights you give up just to be on a TV show (and perhaps date a millionaire), including the right to have the producers “fictionalize” who you are and what you did on the show.
Oh, and turning over medical care decisions to them.
Check out the application here.
My audition is today at 3.

break a leg! you deserve at least a millionaire
You realize that posting a copy of the contract may be an express violation of the agreement and eliminate you from competition? Are you the one who wants to date a millionaire or are you the millionaire to be dated?
I’m willing to take that risk. That’s how much I don’t care. I presume I shall be the one who dates the millionaire. Unless they wish to give me a million dollars. In which case I’d consider removing the copy of the application.
