This is Rio Pesino for PodTech.net. I am here with the Christopher Knight and Adrianne Curry.

Adrianne Curry
Hello!

Christopher Knight
Hello!

Rio Pesino - PodTech
Welcome to the Podcast, guys.

Adrianne Curry
Thank you.

Christopher Knight
Thank you.

Rio Pesino - PodTech
Big fans of yours, 'My Fair Brady', its a real life, Brady Bunch. America's top model but we are not here to talk about that. We are here to talk about you Adrianne, in a video game.

Adrianne Curry
I love being in a video game. We're going to try to market it and see if someone wants to pick it up, I don't see why not because quite frankly I'm kind of like (Inaudible) in my shorts this is just a little bit matter.

Rio Pesino - PodTech
How did the process go as far as you getting in the game and partnering up with NVIDIA?

Adrianne Curry
Well, he is really good friends with Dan Vivoli , who was up on stage, introducing the demo and everything and he came to me and said that they wanted to do this, and they wanted a recognizable model for their new demo, that they had a fairy year and they wanted a person -- I didn't quite get what he was saying, but I agreed to it and I was little 'iffy' until I got on to the set to do all the...

Rio Pesino - PodTech
What was your motion cap?

Adrianne Curry
The motion caps were set and it was full of nerds, who explained it to me within 2.5 seconds and I was like, "Oh, okay got it", and they were way excited and very enthusiastic about it and we shot for about five to six hours. I was in this really hot suit covered with reflectors on my face, hands, everything had dots on it, reflectors, to catch all my movements and stuff. We did that and when we were -- before we did that they took all these pictures of me. They were kind of invasive, they were like getting right in my face like taking pictures of my eyeball with the lens within like two inches from my eye and I am like "What are you doing" had a really good camera under eye, "Oh no, it's getting everything" and now looking at the pictures and the actual virtual me, they've really got everything, every pore, every mole, every expression, even the wrinkles, the furrow on my brow and stuff, it's crazy.

Rio Pesino - PodTech
How accurate do you think it is?

Adrianne Curry
There is only one thing that I was like, "Aw! I don't like that".

Rio Pesino - PodTech
And what is that?

Adrianne Curry
Is they had my enlarged pores on my nose, but they are true, they really are there and there was little bit of crow's feet which I don't possess just yet. I mean, maybe in a year it is virtual Adrianne in one or two years.

Rio Pesino - PodTech
What are your thoughts Chris on the virtual Adrianne?

Adrianne Curry
You got to get (Inaudible)

Christopher Knight
Yeah, it's just wild, it's incredible. They've really pushed the envelope here with GE 8800, so I mean it's a -- I don't know how to express it, they spent a short amount of time with her too, I mean like three months in getting the model. (Voice Overlap)

Adrianne Curry
She is going to able to do a lot more. In three more months this chick's going to be talking, walking around, dancing, jumping, angry, screaming, that's what's frightening.

Christopher Knight
Right.

Rio Pesino - PodTech
Any chance to see you, a virtual Chris probably?

Adrianne Curry
It will be awesome. Yeah, may be beating each other up.

Christopher Knight
I think so; I think there needs to be a slap game.

Adrianne Curry
It should be a 'My Fair Brady' game.

Rio Pesino - PodTech
Well, like the frog that we saw earlier.

Christopher Knight
It's a frog, yeah. We slap each other.

Adrianne Curry
It should be a My Fair 'broggy' (ph) game.

Christopher Knight
Its like rock em', sock em' robots; you know, 3D.

Adrianne Curry
Rock em' sock em' robots.

Rio Pesino - PodTech
Still like crazy right?

Christopher Knight
Yeah.

Rio Pesino - PodTech
Does your character have a name or you?

Adrianne Curry
That's Adrianne.

Rio Pesino - PodTech
Okay.

Christopher Knight
It's a Virtual Adrianne.

Rio Pesino - PodTech
No news as far as whether or not your character's going to be put into a game, or is it just a demonstration or?

Adrianne Curry
Well, it was a demo now but I do own the Virtual Adrianne and we are going to start shopping to see if anybody would like to have a video game with the most realistic broad ever.

Rio Pesino - PodTech
You're going to be the next Lara Croft?

Adrianne Curry
That will be awesome. Kick some ass you know.

Christopher Knight
She wants to kill things.

Rio Pesino - PodTech
Now do you guys game yourselves, both the guys (Inaudible)?

Adrianne Curry
I was obsessed with Hailo, Quake, Doom, King's Quest was a big thing for me when I was a kid. Miss drove me insane, drove me insane and it was like, I really like the computer games that we have to think a lot but I also like the ones where you get to play with your friends because my biggest thing is since I've moved away from all my friends, we are not sitting in an over-heated garage, playing video games with each other anymore and this is a way where I can still play with my friends although they are miles and miles away.

Rio Pesino - PodTech
Sweet. And you soon be able to play it yourself which is pretty cool.

Adrianne Curry
I've always played with myself.

Christopher Knight
Playing with herself is something that she'll love to do.

Rio Pesino - PodTech
I guess I've no comment on that one. Now before we end this Podcast guys, let's talk about your show 'My Fair Brady'. Do you see this coming up?

Adrianne Curry
It'll start tomorrow.

Rio Pesino - PodTech
Tomorrow.

Adrianne Curry
Tomorrow.

Rio Pesino - PodTech
Okay that's cool.

Adrianne Curry
So that will mean, we will have to jump on a fight at 8.00 p.m. tonight, we start filming at 7.00 in the morning and I am really upset because we've have been invited to 'The Who' Concert tonight. Premium seeks man, I am drying.

Rio Pesino - PodTech
And you guys can't go?

Adrianne Curry
Because of the stupid VH1.

Christopher Knight
She is going to have to watch a Podcast of it.

Adrianne Curry
How many times do people come up to you and, "Hey man how would like to sit in a sky box full of service and watch The Who?" "Oh, wait let me think about that."

Christopher Knight
You see it's not going over well with her and she can't do as she has a previous engagement.

Adrianne Curry
I am so upset.

Rio Pesino - PodTech
Well, guys appreciate the Podcast, appreciate the time and thanks a lot and good luck with the show.

Adrianne Curry
Thank you very much.

Christopher Knight
