Who is Annie Jorgensen? 'Joe Millionaire' contestant is former Miss Georgia
There are a lot of reality shows on TV right now, but only a few of them manage to nab the eyeballs. During the early 2000s, one of the shows that actually received a lot of recognition was ‘Joe Millionaire’. The show featured a group of single women, competing for the affection of a bachelor billed as being a millionaire. However, unbeknownst to the singles, the bachelor was not actually a millionaire.
The secret was only revealed to the last remaining woman. Now, it was up to the woman if she wants to be with that person or not. The first season was massively successful and saw 40 million viewers tuning in for the final. Following its debut in 2003, it became one of the highest-rated and most-watched unscripted series debuts of the last 20 years. However, the second season was a complete failure. Now, almost 18 years after the second season aired on TV, the show is set to make a comeback on FOX.
