Vanna White deserves more money, game-show model says: ‘Don’t mess it up’

she’s lawyered up and is asking for a raise for her role on “Wheel of Fortune.” Last week, Ryan Seacrest was named as the new host of “Wheel of Fortune” and is set to take over after Pat Sajak retires next year — while there’s still no word on White’s status.“Vanna, you got a sweet situation right now,” Jordan told TMZ on Monday. “Don’t mess it up, but at the same time, get a little extra money because if they’re bringing Ryan Seacrest in, we all know Ryan Seacrest is about that coin.

I’m sure they’re giving him an extremely good deal … ““If he’s getting a huge payday, I think Vanna White should also benefit from this,” she continued.At the beginning of the interview, Jordan explained that she thinks the network has more than enough money to go around — and that Seacrest shouldn’t have to give up a portion of his new salary to make up for White’s.“The advertisement that goes on during these high-rated shows is astronomical,” Jordan told the outlet.

Jordan starred as one of “Barker’s Beauties” on “The Price Is Right” from 2003 to 2005 and was a briefcase model on “Deal or No Deal” from 2005 to 2009.

She is also an actress and producer. “Ryan Seacrest is in this business to make money, right?” she explained. “He should get as much money as he can get, and Vanna White should have her representation get her as much money as she can get.”The former “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star also admitted that she doesn’t believe it’s “fair” to “start asking” other people to sacrifice some of their money.“I think there’s enough money to go around from both of them, I really, really do,” Jordan said. “I don’t think Ryan Seacrest should get that pressure to give up some of his salary.
