Back9's "Off Par" Features Infamous Miss Teen South Carolina
/In the tough-job-but-someone's-got-to-do-it files, Alex Myers has determined that Back9Network's recently announced new hire Caite Upton, set to co-host the "Off-Par" show with comedian Matty Blake, is actually Caitlin Upton, once known as Lauren Upton, who made national headlines seven years ago for her appearance in the Miss Teen USA contest.
Of course that was seven years ago and she's 25 now, so we won't hold it against her. Plus, having been the subject of a viral video, Upton seems a good fit for the show she's been hired to do:
Co-hosted by acclaimed comedian and actor Matty Blake, and American model Caite Upton, "Off Par” is an inventive look at the world of golf and entertainment, with a comedic twist. Blake, Upton, and a rotating cast of characters will deliver free-flowing laughs in the form of viral internet videos, user-generated social media content, golf-themed skits, and guest appearances by other comedians. The program will air weeknights at 8PM Eastern.
Jimmy Kimmel once famously analyzed this infamous viral video (thanks to reader Jeff for the reminder):
