...Evan Marriott, the lumberjack look-alike who feigned being heir to a $50 million fortune on Fox? Joe Millionaire? in 2003, wanted the $50,000 offered by producers but says he came off looking ?dumb as a doorknob? after a reporter tracked down a girl from his hometown who didn?t remember him too fondly. ?People thought I was the village idiot,? says Marriott, who has since steered clear of television and is back working on construction projects...
...Harper's foreign-affairs record will be judged on his ability to manage Canada's north-south relationship. But it was no coincidence that at his first postelection press conference, he noted that he had received congratulatory calls from Mexican President Vicente Fox, British Prime Minister Tony Blair and Australian Prime Minister John Howard--as well as Bush. With plans to pump C$5.3 billion more into Canada's military over five years as well as add to foreign aid, Harper hopes to preside over a revival of Canada's modest role as a player in world affairs...

The producers added sound effects and captions, she says, and dubbed in a line--"It's better...
...what about contestants? Once Frankenbitten, twice shy? Kozer feels badly used by Fox, but Baker says he would do Amazing Race again, albeit more self-consciously. Likewise, says perhaps the biggest reality villain ever, Omarosa Manigault-Stallworth of The Apprentice, who says the show demonized her. "When I was a good girl, there were no cameras on," she says. "The minute I started arguing, there was a camera shooting me from every angle." She was vilified by viewers across the country.
