Outspoken saleswoman Debra, and Apprentice contestant, is to sell advertisements on her face. “Spare-Face”, as the UK general public has come to know her as, came up with the entrepreneurial idea after an off hand comment, from another contestant, was made about how much spare space her face had. Not one to take things personally, Debra “Spare-face” hatched a cunning plan to capitolise on her facial assets (or lack of) and to sell advertisements on there while on the show.
The Apprentice drew in 8.1 million viewers on the opening show, giving the potential rental value of Debra’s forehead, cheeks and chin a high price tag. Producers have agreed a cut-share of the profits from the revenue generated and we can expect the first advertisements to be shown on the next show.
Slot A has already been sold to a new private property portal Bethemiddleman for the term of the show, amount undisclosed. Slots B, C and D are in talks with other advertisers.
