We definitely remember Joe Millionaire.

His real name is Evan Marriott. And he rocked the reality TV world in 2003 with a Fox show called Joe Millionaire. The concept was kind of like The Bachelor, which was just kicking off on ABC.

Joe Millionaire (Marriott) was a hunky construction worker who pretended he was a millionaire as he wooed 20 women in a beautiful French castle. He eventually narrowed down to one - Zora Andrich. The two split $1 million if they stayed together. Well, they stayed together long enough to get the cash.

Now, here's Evan Marriott.



He showed up at a Paley Center panel presented by We TV on Thursday night on the Evolution of Relationship Reality shows.

He's a contractor,  and says the fame game was tough on him, reports Us Weekly.
"It just happened — talk about overnight," he said. "I didn't know about success, but notoriety. And it's... it's... you can't explain it, it's really powerful. It's really powerful when not just your friends know you, but everybody thinks they know you. They think they do. And depending on how you take it, it's sometimes not that pleasant."
