Deal or No Deal and Celebrity Apprentice star Claudia Jordan is set to help Billy Bush host the 2009 Ms. Universe Pageant live from Atlantis, Paradise Islands in the Bahamas.

Although Bush is a pageant veteran having hosted the Miss Universe competition in 2003 2004 and 2005, Jordan isn’t a stranger to pageants either.  She was crowned Miss Rhode Island in 1997 before she went on to become a model on The Price is Right , Deal or No Deal & most recently Celebrity Apprentice. Claudia is absolutely hilarious! Which, is why she is going to be an amazing host. She has been on aire for years now with Jamie Foxx on Foxxhole AND has her own radio show ‘The Claudia Jordan Show‘ so she is a veteran at being quick on her comedic timing. I promise several belly aching laughes if you tune in.

Tune in to see Billy Bush and Claudia Jordan host the 2009 Ms. Universe Pageant on NBC on Sunday, August 23rd at 9:00 p.m. ET!
