''Who Wants to Marry a Multi-Millionaire?'' was a Fox network reality show in which a multi-millionaire named Rick Rockwell married the contest winner, Darva Conger, on television. The show was aired as a single two-hour broadcast on February 15, 2000, and was hosted by Jay Thomas. In 2002, ''TV Guide'' ranked it number 25 on its ''TV Guide''s 50 Worst TV Shows of All Time list. ==Premise== The special was structured as a beauty pageant-like competition in which 50 women (one from each U.S. state) competed to be the bride of an unknown multi-millionaire, whom they did not see except in silhouette. The competition included a swimwear portion and a question-and-answer portion. The millionaire, ultimately revealed as Rick Rockwell, selected Darva Conger of California and married her on the spot. Conger previously served in the U.S. Air Force, and had been stationed at Scott Air Force Base, near St. Louis. She studied nursing at Southern Illinois University at the Edwardsville and Carbondale campuses, where she graduated ''magna cum laude''.〔(St. Louis - Best Of - Best Local Girl Made Bad - Darva Conger (2000) - Riverfront Times )〕 In addition to the television wedding, Conger also received a three-carat (600-mg) diamond ring and more than $100,000 in prizes. More than 22 million people viewed the show's broadcast. The special's name was a parody of ''Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?'', the popular game show that was airing on competing network ABC at the time. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Who Wants to Marry a Multi-Millionaire?」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
