I wondered if that was her nickname always or if it was for this show
cause her real name is Melissa Jo
and because there was another Melissa
They then started calling her MOJO !

Melissa was lip licking thing also at the same time. Must be the dry heat from the radiators.

Paul the butler has my vote to host anything from now on and I will watch it. He was on Regis and Kelly the other morning and I just fell in love with him! I would love to see a show of him telling the behind the scenes stuff as someone suggested above.

I have enjoyed this show as a sitcom!! I find it more interesting in seeing what kind of people would apply to be on this show and to see them trying to act their way into the end than in really being concerned about them as people. There is no "reality" in any of it, but just like Big Brother, there is something that pleases the voyer in me in watching the behavior.

And it is funnier than MOST of the real sitcoms on tv!! I LOVED the captions with Sarah.... I was still laughing about that days after the show aired!! <slurp> <smack> <oooooohhhh> <would this go better lying down?> LOL

'Millionaire' Mom Okay with 'Silly' Bondage Films
Sat, Feb 1, 2003 12:05 PM PDT

LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) - "Joe Millionaire's" Sarah Kozer is just a small town girl who came to Hollywood and was led astray by the lure of quick money to combat mounting student loans. So much so that appearing in "Dirty Soled Dolls" didn't seem like such a bad idea to her ... or her mother.

"My checkpoint living in L.A. as a young woman for the last few years has been I would never do anything that I wouldn't call and tell my mother about," Kozer tells the New York Daily News. "Perhaps my mother was as naive as I was because we just thought it was silly. The pictures -- they're ridiculous."

The pictures in question are Kozer's bondage and foot fetish film work, done under the stage name Cindy Schubert, that came to light this past week thanks to the snoops over at TheSmokingGun.com

According to the Daily News, a FOX executive admits that the network knew about Kozer's soft-porn past, but considered it an acceptable entry on her resume since "the shy churchgoer is not going to get you a rating."

For her part, Kozer points out that while the work she did was later cut with more explicit shots of other actresses, she herself was never unclothed or engaged in any overtly sexual activity.

Indeed, from the screen grabs floating around the Internet, the fims look more like a sorority girl goof above all else.

Kozer was paid union scale, saying she declined to participate in anything that would have netted her more money.

The 29-year-old hopes to parley her face time on "Joe Millionaire" (where she currently one of the final three women vying for Evan Marriott's affections) into a book deal and cooking show of her own.

"When you're in this town, it's an industry where there are a lot of opportunities," she says.

"Joe Millionaire" airs Mondays at 9 p.m. ET on FOX.

Cool - I'm looking forward to the new cooking show on FoodTV called "Cooking with Nicole and Sarah".

On their first episode Sarah cooks Thai food with her special guest from TS Ty Pennington, and then Nicole describes how she can go to any restaurant and guess its portion size.

is this on topic?

Weinermr, you forgot to include Karen from BB1. Remember, she thought she would have the "Cooking with Karen" show. She could smoke cigarettes and bash her husband while cooking with Nicole and Sarah.

about paul hogan--he'd be great for the Mole series, too...since we can't have anderson. i think he interracts so well with people and i love his sense of humor and his 'classiness'--attributes i also credit anderson with.

Tabby.. I was thinking the same thing about Paul and The Mole.. He'd be great. He just has a great presence.

Brilliant! Paul would make the best Mole host. I can't wait until tonight to see who Evan kicks out of the chateau! I think it will be Melissa tonight (I hope so anyway)! Go Zora!

I saw Evan on Extra, and he said he was annoyed that the editing of the last episode didn't show him getting out of the hot tub to follow Zora.

C.J.: Metro's 'Joe Millionaire' girl serves me a mean Shirley Temple
C.J.
Star Tribune

Published Feb. 3, 2003 CJ03


"Joe Millionaire's" Minnesota "mercenary," Melissa Mowery, passed the test with flying colors -- and a splash of temper -- Saturday night.

Hey, may I have a Shirley Temple? I asked the harried bartender, who was all pouty lips and curly hair.

"C.J., stop coming around my house," Mowery said emphatically, as she leaned against the bar and began filling my drink order.

I found her! As of Saturday, Mowery was one of three finalists that FOX's fake millionaire, Evan Marriott, is considering in this reality show.

As FOX 9 viewers know, I've been in Mowery's neighborhood, ringing her doorbell, making friends with her neighbors. Although I've been on her block twice, I've only rung the doorbell once -- incessantly. That was plenty for her mom. Mowery informed me that her mom is not well and that I freaked her out. My apologies; that was never my intent. (I wasn't even looking for Mother Mowery until Saturday afternoon, when I racked up 100 miles scouting for her.)

Many thanks to the FM 107 listener who called the producer Thursday to let me know where Mowery worked. Thanks also to a friend who left a voicemail Friday night. Mowery would rather I not share her place of business with my readership.

"I would love it if you wouldn't," she said. "I just don't want it in the paper."

Already, the word of mouth has been generating a steady clientele interested in getting a gander at Mowery, the edgy, smoking, trash-talking "Joe Millionaire" survivor.

Although Mowery said, "You're the last person I'd give an interview with," we had a delightful encounter.

Are people recognizing you?

"My God. People are coming in and saying, 'I saw it.' I can't go anywhere. I totally can't. It's weird. Weird." Nothing like having 50 million viewers to catch a few eyes.

Mowery wanted to know whether I was enjoying "Joe Millionaire." Puhleeze, I wouldn't still be watching if she were not on the show. Thank goodness she's entertaining.

Marriott is going to be a lot more interesting to me when he gets to his 40s. Right now he's cute but just too much muscle, too much hair and too many eyebrows.

"Hilarious," said Mowery.

A bartender named Marie couldn't resist chiming in. Marie finds Evan "kind of boring, doesn't seem very charismatic, spontaneous, intriguing [or] into any of the girls. I've watched every week because of her, and I don't even watch TV."

Because Evan's such a dud, Marie said, "I would want to get kicked off."

Mowery gave a hearty guffaw when I gave this hypothesis: Melissa is not genuinely into Evan either. She's just so competitive she doesn't want to be sent packing. Mowery's laugh suggested that I nailed this one, but time will tell.

Naturally, Mowery couldn't tell us whether she gets dumped tonight. She didn't seem to know what I was talking about when I asked whether she was going to be on "Entertainment Tonight" with Mary Hart on Tuesday. (Other booted contestants have been on "ET" the day after. Maybe Melissa's acting? Maybe she amazes by surviving tonight's cut? At any rate, there is no doubt in my mind that Marriott did not find true love on the show, not the way he's flirted with Hart and even asked her for a date. Anyway, even his parents say he's not ready to get married.)

Mowery, the chick who doesn't know the difference between being "mercenary" and "missionary," blew me off when I tried to pay for my Shirley Temple. I finally got another bartender to charge me for the beverage. I left her a $10 tip. As I left Mowery, I wondered whether "customer service rep" is what we're calling bartenders these days?

Well, phooey! I'm going to have to miss the show tonight 'cause I'm confined to the downstairs of my house which means only one satellite receiver. Usually, I have one taping Third Watch and one watching Joe Millionnaire. Now, I'm just going to watch Third Watch (it wins the contest, hands down). Further, I'm bummed because I can't watch The Practice in it's new time slot, either! ARGH! When are network execs gonna realize that we wanna watch all these shows and help us out with the scheduling!? :)

Fruitbat, I've got all the equipment, but 3/4 of it is upstairs and that's an out-of-reach zone for me until my ankle heals a bit more. I'll survive, though, and maybe watch the rerun on Thursday (unless it's up against something ELSE I like better!). :)

I just feel that if Joe Millionaire was really a nice guy, well, he would have voted off all of the nice girls first in order to save their dignity. Nevermind, it's probably just a silly comment. I have only seen two of the first episodes and haven't read the previous posts yet, so maybe that's what he did/is doing.

They're going to the French Riveria, private jet, private dates... gonna go watch.

Cyn, do you get the sense that Zora suspects?

I can't believe I am still online. I have been online for over 3 hours.
