Earlier today, PLAYBOY.COM spoke EXCLUSIVELY to LALATE NEWS about the two finalists.

John Thomas, Playboy.com editor, tells LALATE NEWS: “Beauty and brains are a timeless combo so we’re not surprised Amanda and Leticia have kept up their end of the beauty bargain on the show. Even though only one will win we’re sure to work with both in the future — how could we not?”

Leticia Cline is a Playboy “Special Editions” model. Amanda Corey is a Playboy Cyber Girl of the Week, November 13, 2006. They’re both winners in LALATE’s book!

Cline is 29 and from Orlando and a mother of one. She says of her partner “I picked my partner, and I admit he was everything I thought a geek looked like — thick glasses, messy hair, and bad clothes. I knew he needed the most help, and I was the only person that could do that for him. Plus, he was so sweet and positive that I fell in love with the guy instantly.”

Corey is a 23 and a full-time model. She says of her on-screen man, “When I first learned that we were going to be partners, I was really, really excited. He was the least geeky of all the guys, and he was the tallest and I’m the shortest. We actually got to choose our partners, so he was my first pick.”
