Ursula ♥ Mayes

Ursula Mayes was born on a military base in Seoul, South Korea. Her exotic looks come from a Korean mother and a German/Native-American father. On primetime television, Ursula appears as suitcase model #5 on NBC’s hit show “Deal or No Deal”, hosted by Howie Mandel. During her three years with the show, DOND’s fame has skyrocketed, becoming the #1 game show in the world and reaching over 80 million households. Ursula is currently filming season 3 of “Deal or No Deal” and taking scripts for lead roles.
Growing up as an army brat has carried into Ursula’s adult life. She now tours the world as an international personality, representing various brands from all over the globe. After being discovered in a spread in Maxim magazine, Ursula signed a multi-year deal with a global events company, traveling to 20+ U.S. cities, Asia, Europe, Guam, Puerto Rico and Brazil, to host headliner performances and interviewing celebrity guests, music groups, and corporate sponsors.
Alluring and versatile, Ursula is one of the most sought after fresh faces for editorial and commercial shoots. Her unique look gets her noticed everywhere she goes, but it is her down to earth nature and strong work ethic that makes her shine. She has appeared in major U.S. magazines such as Maxim, Stuff, Muscle & Fitness, OC Health, Karma, People magazine’s “100 Most Beautiful People” issue. Internationally, Ursula has been featured by Australian FHM, Korean Vogue, Esquire Turkey, Harper’s Bazaar, Elle, In Style, Cosmopolitan and Marie Claire, just to name a few. Her national commercial campaigns include Evan Williams, Monster Energy, Subaru, Bacardi and Airsplat. THQ, the global videogame powerhouse, has hired Ursula as the cover model and star of Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights, the follow up to its 2 million selling Juiced racing game, available on Xbox 360™, PlayStation®2, and Nintendo DS™. She starred in the game’s television commercial, which is airing worldwide on major networks such as MTV and Spike TV, as well as a special edition DVD just for her fans. She also appeared at the Juiced 2 Launch Event in London.
Overseas, Ursula can be seen in Korea and Japan in her first multi-national print and broadcast campaign for EI Solutions Skincare & Cosmetics. In addition, Ursula has filmed a commercial film (CF), considered a great achievement in the highly competitive Korean entertainment industry, for the real estate development Hoban Apartments. Ursula enjoys quite an international following and is highly demanded in regions such as Korea, Japan, Europe and South America. Requests from her worldwide fan base have let to the development of her own line of merchandise, including a website, calendars, DVDs, and posters.
On a personal note, Ursula is a strong believer in helping others, donating a portion of her proceeds to help the children of the Pearl S. Buck Foundation of Korea, an organization committed to improving the quality of life, expanding opportunities for children and promoting an understanding of the values and attributes of other cultures, the injustice of prejudice, and the need for humanitarianism throughout the world.
From model to actress, international spokesmodel to humanitarian, Ursula loves to embark on ventures that involve creative self-expression, traveling, helping others and learning.
