THE Bachelorette has revived the career of Sophie Monk and now she stands to make big money from her appearance on the reality show.
The personality has been a huge hit for the franchise and delivered Channel 10 its strongest rating of any in the series, both male and female.
A source told News Corp Australia that since her appearance on the show, her management and the network have been inundated with commercial opportunities.
David Manning, of website TV Tonight, said because Monk had been given more airtime, her real personality was shining through which had opened her up to new fans.
“Casting a celebrity may get people to tune in, but they only stay if they like what they see, and in Sophie Monk they surely do. She is self-deprecating and doesn’t hold back with her thoughts and is the first Bachelorette to embrace her ‘inner bogan’. She comes across as sincere and that’s fundamental to its success,” he said.
“Presuming the narrative of the show doesn’t derail things, it will open up all sorts of casting opportunities and product endorsements, especially those pitched at young females.”
