Atlanta-Area Woman To Make 'Wheel Of Fortune' Debut

Some Georgians will recognize a familiar face when a DeKalb County woman takes a spin on Wheel of Fortune.

Nicole Ware Spencer, of Tucker, is playing the Wheel this Tuesday (September 21). The clinical psychologist and women’s wellness company owner describes herself as an animal lover, nature enthusiast and yoga practicer, according to a press release from the beloved game show. And, of course, she and her husband Billy are longtime Wheel of Fortune viewers. Spencer said her husband is “super competitive and still loses,” when solving puzzles at home. But bing selected to compete on the show following a successful virtual audition has been a whole new ballgame: “The process has been a lot of fun and exciting,” she said in the release.

Interested in auditioning like Spencer? Here’s how Wheel of Fortune says you can do it:

“It’s never been easier to audition to become a contestant. Wheel of Fortune fans can submit applications at https://www.wheeloffortune.com/join/be-a-contestant for a chance to be invited to a virtual audition. There, potential contestants can show off their puzzle-solving skills and potentially be selected to appear as a contestant on the show from the comfort of their own homes. If selected to be on the show, everyone goes home with a minimum of $1,000.”
