About Leyla Milani
From 2005 through 2009, Milani appeared as a model on the prime-time version of NBC’s game program Deal or No Deal. She was most famous for her mane, which was described as having a “lioness-like” appearance, and she had held case #13 from the show’s inception. In spite of the fact that the number 13 is traditionally regarded as the unluckiest of all numbers, she was frequently referred to on the show as “Lucky Leyla” or “Lucky 13,” as her cases frequently contained six-digit figures, and in eight of those instances, the top prize of one million dollars.
Milani competed in the WWE Diva Search in 2005 and placed second overall out of the 8,000 women who entered the competition internationally. She then appeared on the Pro Wrestling Guerrilla After School Special after that. As a result of her participation in the WWE Diva Search, she began performing under the name Leyla Milani. In addition, she officiated the Lingerie Bowl in the year 2006.
Milani was a guest on the show Split Ends, shown on the Style Network, as well as on a celebrity episode of Catch 21, broadcast on the Game Show Network, in which she appeared alongside fellow DOND models Patricia Kara and Marisa Petroro. During this show, she made the announcement that she was launching her own hair extension line called Milani Hair, which debuted in the beginning of 2010. The TLC program titled “Secrets of a Trophy Wife” premiered on December 8, 2012, and features Milani as a featured guest.
Milani and the other girls from Deal or No Deal were recognized as the “Favorite TV Models.” and given an award by the Game Show Network. Milani was one of five models that appeared on GSN on June 6, 2009 to accept this honor. The People’s Choice Award for Favorite Game Show was also taken home by Deal or No Deal for the past two years in a row.
Milani started the luxury haircare firm Leyla Milani Hair in 2009. The company specializes in “premium, 100% human hair clip-in or (clip-on)extensions,” and Milani cites her own struggles with her hair as the reason behind the company’s creation. The company is a subsidiary of Kosh Milani Enterprises LLC and has its headquarters in Irvine, California. As of the year 2009, it was reported that the company had a total of five employees.
Milani has appeared many times on the conservative parody show The Half Hour News Hour on Fox News as well as the show Redeye, in which she plays the role of a celebrity looking for a charity to support. Both the M80 motorsport show on Fuel TV and the Celebrity Golf tournament that was broadcast on FOX Sport Net were hosted by her. Milani made a guest appearance on the television show Noah’s Arc on the LOGO channel, playing the role of a woman who is looking for work. She has also had appearances on My Fair Brady and True Life: I’m a TV Star, both of which show on MTV.
Oprah Winfrey invited a select group of models to come on her show, and she was one of those models. The situation of Leyla was chosen by Oprah (number 8 for this show). Later on, Oprah repeated the name Leyla because that is also the name of her pet dog.
