 Wrestling Bio:

Leyla Milani (born April 2, 1982, in Toronto, Ontario) is an actress/model who has an extensive background in television appearances. She is of Italian-Iranian descent. She currently resides in Beverly Hills, California.

Milani has appeared on Deal or No Deal, Sleeper Cell, Las Vegas, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Entourage, Stacked, and Wanted. Maxim magazine features Milani and her fellow Deal or No Deal brief case models in their online Girls of Maxim gallery.

Wrestling

Leyla was a contestant in World Wrestling Entertainments 2005 RAW Diva Search, making it to the final two out of 8000 contestants until being eliminated on August 15, 2005 in Montreal, Canada. She is noted for having her bikini top fall off while competing in an obstacle course.

Leyla lost face for this action, as another contestant, Alexis, had requested to do it, and was told by WWE Creative that it would not be acceptable. For this reason she was rapidly disqualified from the obstacle course contest and verbally attacked by Jonathan Coachman on air.

In spite of widely-circulated rumours about her being signed by the WWE or training in their developmental territory Ohio Valley Wrestling, the official websites of both WWE or Leyla Milani have yet to confirm her status with the wrestling giant. However, there is a petition set up by her loyal fans requesting that the Diva Search finalist be signed by WWE. Leyla has confirmed that she will not be working with the WWE in the near future.

Other appearances

She can also be seen as a brief case model on NBCs hit game show Deal or No Deal. She holds case #13. Although 13 is usually considered the unluckiest of numbers, she is sometimes referred to on the show as Lucky Leyla, as many times her case had contained 6 digit amounts and in four instances contained the $1,000,000 top prize. Nonetheless, NBC once opened the show noting that by holding all the large amounts and not being picked at the beginning, case #13 has been very unlucky.

Leyla has plenty of television experience, appearing on the TNT show “Wanted: The Wild Bunch” as well as “Minding the Shore,” a new comedy on TBS starring Pauley Shore. She also has appeared in a few episodes of “Curb Your Enthusiasm” and “Entourage” on HBO and done music videos. Leyla has a degree in fashion and played basketball in high school.
