“Welcome back to the Wanda Jones Show this week we’ll be discussing the contest of Manhattan that's been running for a year! all of america sit and wait for the winner of the luxury house. I turn to Jenny, Lucy, and Ann for the beginning of our show.”
“The Media’s been keeping us in the dark throughout the whole contest.”
“We do have speculation and Newspaper print of the Rock Band, Aerosmith taking the lead in it. But that has been regarded as a rumor.”
“There’s been many reports of big celebrities from England such as Tony Hadley, Sting, Paul Young, and Simon Le Bon that have entered and may potentially be one of the winners.”
“This is just like Charlie in the Chocolate Factory!”
“Only we don’t know who Charlie is.”
“Paparazzi's try their hardest to get pictures of Princess Diana in a Bikini but won’t even try to figure out the winner. Something all of the world has been dying to know.”
“This is true, they’ve succeeded in exposing the Princess in a hurtful way but won’t do something that won’t ruin anyone.”
“At this moment we’ll be taking in some callers as we all sit impatiently and wait for the unveiling of this decade's biggest contest.”
“Hello?”
“You’re on The Wanda Jones show, What's your name and where are you calling in from?”
“Judy and I'm calling from Toledo, Ohio.”
“Hi, Judy. Who do you think is a possible candidate to win the contest?”
“There's been so many rumors, all I can tell you are who I hope and who I don’t.”
“There have been a lot of rumors, including singers from overseas.”
“I’m honestly uncomfortable with the thought of any Brit living in an authentically New York house. If someone’s gonna win, it better be an american.”
“I disagree with that, there are some real lookers that I hope to win.”
“I Just don’t think that any foreigners should even get a chance at winning.”
“There’s George Michaels, Morten Harket, Phil Oakey, Jon Moss, Simon Le Bon, Martin Fry, Tony Hadley, Limahl. Oh, I could just go on and on!”
“I don’t think you actually know what it takes to be a true American, Wanda.”
“Well, I know how to treat everyone the same and not discriminate. I also know a hot guy when I see one.”
“...I’m gonna hang up now.”
“Well, good luck to all our English friends who did enter. Okay, we’ll be taking another caller.”
“Wanda?”
“Yes, What is your name and where are you calling from?"
“I’m Maria, and I’m calling from New York.”
“Thanks for calling, Maria. Do you have the inside scoop on the winner?”
“Maybe, but I wanted to talk about the conversation with Judy. I love any New wave or New Romantic music and I live above 59th street with my abuelita. I heard, now I heard that Tony Hadley entered. Living so close to the house, I hope he wins.
“Tell me about it! He’s cute isn’t he?”
“Cute? Wanda he’s so hot! I’ve seen the house, from where I live and to have him live that close. Oh, that would be heaven!”
“You’d be a lucky girl, Maria. So we potentially have Tony Hadley. Just him or the rest of Spandau Ballet?”
“Who cares Wanda. All I want is him!”
“Well, Thank you Maria for giving us another piece to the puzzle.
“But yes, that's what I know. It's not much longer until we find out.”
“That’s absolutely true, and when we come back folks we’ll be talking to an expert that knows everything there is about the winners.”
