The 'Suits' alum recalled feeling 'forced to be all looks and little substance' during her time as a model on the NBC game show.

involved contestants being presented with 26 briefcases, each held by a different identically dressed female model, and trying to guess which held the most money.

Markle — who, up until that point had landed small roles on shows including General Hospital — recalled feeling grateful that Deal or No Deal helped her pay her bills while she continued to pursue an acting career, and she called the show a “fascinating” experience.

Couldn't see any substance, tried looks couldn't see that either, so you left embarrassed.

Yes, there was very little time in the show to interview all 26 models about their thoughts on climate change.

OMG. That was literally the point of the models on that show. They were human suitcase holders. She wasn't tricked into doing it. Don't like it? Don't do it. I'm a strong feminist but come on.

She is literally kanye. They both say dumb shit to stay relevant. Except kanye is talented but she isnt

Stupidity is also a gift of God, but one mustn't misuse it.

Oh please. She is such a thirst trap. She was thrilled as hell getting that job. She knew exactly what it was about and was happy to perform.

She was a Model

😅

She knew the job description, being beautifully photographed on TV and having few if any lines. If she was underemployed for her training she should not have accepted the job. Unless there was harassment this criticism is unrealistic.

This is a shameful headline, which I sadly fully expect from The Hollywood Reporter, which has become a tabloid rag. They wrote this headline knowing full well that no one would read the article, thereby ensuring hate-filled, misogynist responses

Awww...so pathetic

Literally none of you read the article. You all stopped at the headline because you want a reason to hate her

“Forced” 🙄🙄🙄

holy shit. she was a MODEL. What did she expect?!?

The sky is also blue.

Meghan's full of substance.

Attention seeker

MeghanMarkIe thinking she was gonna be Meryl Streep…on Deal or No Deal 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫 meghanmarkleisanarcissist

Right I reckon it paid her bills though or helped to pay them. GMAFB

Because it’s literally women holding suitcases. Did she think she’d be performing Tennessee Williams?

Was she under the impression this would be on par with being a 'Jeopardy!' contestant? Meghan's doesn't grasp the obvious too well.

I thought this was TheOnion at first glance

Isn’t everyone objectified in Hollywood?

Oh geez I really hope she didn’t actually say this.

Who?

Siri...what does model mean?

who told her she had any substance

Otherwise they’d have fat bald men holding the cases.

That’s the job lol

You're supposed to just stand there and open the case. It's not a play on Broadway...

Isn’t that what being a model is all about

“Woman hired to open briefcases quit job because the job was to only open briefcases.”

If she felt that nd still did the job for the money then i guess she has a point.

um that's the job, she's right

She was 'forced to be all looks' while she was a model?

The amount of people in this thread that read a headline & instantly comment some bs 🤦‍♂️ if you read it says the gig made her miss being valued beyond her body. She didn’t go into it thinking it was an intellectual role 🙄 of course you read a headline & jumped on a bandwagon

No Deal

fanof_kate

Meghan zukwanike

um, isn't that the job description?

and she was, as was every box turner. Just ask Vanna White. Good looking gals and guys are mostly seen as decorative and are well paid to flip a lid, or turn a letter. The only time one feels ‘objectified’ and can voice the obvious, is when ages into understanding the meaning.😭

Who?

The more she talks the more I suspect her family she disowned was right all along… 🧜🏻‍♀️

I have a question for Meghan….is there any scenario where she does not feel “objectified”, “like a victim”… Every time she opens her mouth it’s always about how shamed she is. youreexhausting

It was a paying gig that gave her visibility and helped fund her acting career. Did she think she was auditioning for the lead role in a reboot of Streetcar Named Desire on the West End?

No shit Sherlock?!

She was literally hired to hold the case in a cocktail dress. What did she expect she was going to be quoting Shakespeare?

Didn’t even know that Markle was on the show

Can the Rock steady the DC universe with 'Black Adam'?NEW YORK (AP) — In Hollywood’s superhero era thus far, there has been one particularly conspicuous absence: While a parade of big-name actors have taken their turns donning various spandex suits, Dwayne Johnson — arguably the biggest movie star in the world — has, until now, sat out the trend. Nope. It looks very bad. DC has only ever been Batman, with Superman making an occasional appearance.
