That’s not the end of the story with Holly Hallstrom. According to reports, she refused to lie on the stand and because of that she was let go. Not one to give up easily, Holly spilled the beans about what Bob tried to get her to do. Barker retaliated with a lawsuit of his own claiming slander to his character. However, Holly felt so strongly about it that she filed a countersuit for age and weight discrimination and wrongful dismissal. In that case, she ended up winning the suit and received a multi-million dollar settlement.

With over 29 years on the show, Janice Pennington is a living legend amongst Barker’s Beauties. With that many years under her belt, she obviously has a long list of stories. One that she will never forget is when she was smacked by a camera back in 1988. If you remember, TV cameras in the 1980’s were massive, so when Janice got hit she was knocked into contestants row and laid there unconscious. She was quickly rushed to the hospital and had to undergo two surgeries, one of which left her with one shoulder an inch shorter than the other. Because of the scars she received that day, Janice could no longer wear swimsuits on the show.
