Come on Down....

Meredith Viera’s interview with longtime The Price Is Right host Bob Barker was a little more sex-obsessed then you might have expected. Barker not only described a contestant’s breasts falling out of her tube top (”she came on down and they came on out!”), he confessed to almost taking a role in porn while working as a model/radio DJ in Florida.

I went to see a photographer [in Hollywood], he said “I have no work for you, but a fella down on Santa Monica Boulevard, he may have some work for you.” So I went down there, and…this fellow, he worded it carefully…and gradually it dawned on me that he was offering me a job in a pornographic movie! I assured him this was not my thing, and I got out of there, but I couldn’t get wait to tell my wife…I said, “Dorothy Jo, I got offered a job in a pornographic movie!” She
said, “did you take it?”

Despite the easy segue (”maybe your wife knew you liked to…”), the multiple sexual harassment suits brought by former employees and Price models failed to come up. With Barker even signaling the size of his girth (to Al Roker’s horror), we couldn’t help but do a double-take when “ANN & AL…COME ON DOWN!” flashed on the screen. Huh huh huh, “ann & al.”
