Let’s Make a Deal
Coyne became nationally recognized in 2009 when she began appearing as the floor model on the reboot of the CBS television game show “Let’s Make a Deal,” hosted by Wayne Brady with announcing by Jonathan Mangum. A series with a long history, “Let’s Make a Deal” originally aired between 1963 and 1977 with host Monty Hall and floor model Carol Merrill.
When Coyne began taping the new show, she was still living in Las Vegas and performing in “The Sirens of TI” at night, requiring her to commute back and forth between Vegas and Los Angeles where “Let’s Make a Deal” is taped. Ultimately, she relocated to Los Angeles for the show’s second season so she wouldn’t have to constantly travel. Coyne also took improv classes at the Groundlings in order to improve her onscreen interactions with Brady and Mangum.
Coyne has taken advantage of her background as a dancer while on “Let’s Make a Deal.” She has discussed how moving among sets and between different prizes is similar to dance choreography, and that it requires elegance and agility. Timing is also paramount, as Coyne has to hit particular marks on the floor and bring in prizes at appropriate moments. Meanwhile, she has had to expand her skillset to become part of the comedy of the show, which has seen her do everything from playing with giant croquet sets to eating nachos from a cheese-filled hot tub.
Salary
For her work on “Let’s Make a Deal” Tiffany Coyne is paid a salary of $5,000 per episode. There are 137 episodes in a season. That works out to $685,000 per season.
