American Idol? Feh. America’s Next Top Model? Whatever. The Donald? Yeah, yeah … we’re fired. We know. Those are the top competition-based reality shows out there right now where someone is trying to win a career rather than a prize. But now comes the pinnacle, the creme-de-la-creme, the contest to end all contests. Why it has not yet seen the light of day, I know not, but thank god someone finally thought to do it.
Yes, people … well, uhm … women … actually, women with long legs, breast implants and a very sturdy neck … you too can now “live the dream.” You can be a Las Vegas Showgirl by applying to Vegas Dream Show (via Cynopsis). If you want to be a nameless, faceless and probably topless performer in a really tired show wearing large plumed or fruited headdresses, not making a ton of money yet working at least two shows a day, here is the reality show for you. Not only can you potentially win a contract to be a have the “spectacular life of a Vegas showgirl,” but if you’re not the winner, you can have your humiliation for not even being able to make it as a Vegas showgirl seen by the rest of the country. So please, apply now, because I get the feeling that if they don’t get a huge response, the show may not happen, and that would be unfortunate for all of us.
Also, I’d like to put a little call out to women in major cities, especially on the coasts. You too are eligible for this show. Just because you didn’t grow up in a dust-bowl or plains state, you will not be discriminated against. For instance, if you’re a not yet successful actress living in LA, go to Vegas, and live your dream!
Oh … I can’t wait!!!
