Deal or No Deal - Filipino Edition

Originally to be broadcast in the US today, the international version of Deal or No Deal aired earlier this week. Shot in the Philippines, the Filipino edition had Philippine host Kris Aquino co-hosting with her counterpart Howie Mandel. Howie Mandel and US contestants played the Deal or No Deal according to the rules of the Philippine version. Apparently, Howie Mandel was coached to say a few lines in Filipino as well. Instead of the US Models, the Philippine edition had the 26k Girls.

Philippines Models v. American "Deal" Models

Note to American "Deal" Models: After watching Howie host the show in the Philippines and seeing their models, you American "Deal" models are really ungraceful. It's something to work on.
