A Salute to Game Shows - The Price is Right

Models - "Barker's Beauties"

Janice Pennington

As stated above, the models on The Price is Right are also known as "Barker's Beauties". Throughout the years, we have had many women as some of Barker's Beauties, including Anitra Ford, Dian Parkinson, Holly Halstrom, Gena Lee Nolin, and Chantel Dubay, among others. Currently, the three models, or, Barker's Beauties, are Janice Pennington, Kathleen Bradley, and Nikki Ziering. Janice has been with the show since the pilot was produced, Kathleen since the early 1990's, and Nikki since the 28th season premiere.

What the Barker's Beauties do is model the prizes that they give away on The Price is Right, from cash to cars. It is the Barker's Beauty's job to drive that new car on stage, to show off that hand-painted screen, to stamp "void" on the Check Game check if it is so needed, to reveal prices at times, and it continues. What would we do without Barker's Beauties? Answer is, I don't know! They are absolutely an indispensable part of The Price is Right, and we would miss them terribly if they were to ever not be a part of it all.
