With regards to her acting history and whether she was a bimbo in her roles or not,she will have had to auditioned against a number of other suitably good looking women and so she will have had to have done the best audition and used her acting skills. Whether those roles then were her simulating sex, being a love interest or anything else is by the by. She was not objectified in the same way that the girls on game shows are.

She is complaining that she felt objectified and a ‘bimbo’ on Deal or No Deal’ (yet stayed for 39 weeks) - then she ‘got out’. How does that make the other girls who stayed on the show for years feel? Are they all ‘bimbo’s then? Holier than thou Meghan, who is better than they are.
Several of them have spoken up and they are NOT happy. They say all the girls were treated with respect, they loved being on the show and it brought them great opportunities.They were hired not just for their looks, but for their outgoing personalities and ability to connect with the contestants. But not Meghan, she has to be victimised, in one way or another, in everything she does. Over and over again.
Whoopi Goldberg has come out and given her a piece of her mind too, at the shade he is throwing on the other girls in the show.
It is hypocritical to complain and then go on and take a part where your
only scene in a movie is simulating a blow job, or again, your only scene in which your credit was 'the hot girl' crawling half naked up a bed to strip a guy and then call it non - objectifying
acting.
