Pro tip for 'Price Is Right': Don't call pregnant models 'wide load'

11/21/2012

Justice for pregnant models, come on down! Former "Price Is Right" model Brandi Cochran has been awarded $775,000 in a wrongful termination suit in which she claimed the game show's producers canned her for being pregnant, but not before calling her insulting names like "wide load." What's more, if the jury decides producers acted maliciously, Cochran could collect even more in punitive damages. A "Price Is Right" rep called the verdict the "result of a flawed process." Perhaps the show was hoping the jury would award Cochran only $1. [Source]
