In showbiz, you have the male performer and his lovely assistant. A Lovely Assistant is just that, an attractive young woman who assists the performer or primary host. This can be by fetching things, being the object of whatever the performer is to do, giving out prizes, handling the lottery equipment, distracting the audience's attention away from a magician's skullduggery, or doing minor performances herself. They are almost Always Female (even if the magician is female herself). But primarily, her job is to look good, strike attractive poses, and give the performer room to do his thing. The clothing can vary from modest but sexy to outright Stripperiffic. A variation appears in a Stage Magician's show, where there are practical reasons for small, female assistants in tight-fitting clothes. Some physical-displacement type tricks (moving boxes, sawing a person in half) require the person to be quite small in order to fit into the device (most magic equipment is designed for an assistant who's 5′2″ tall). The same is true of quick-change acts, where the model must be small enough to wear many layers of trick clothing without appearing bulky. In these cases the "assistant" is an integral part of the act who requires skill and training, but plays off the audience expectations that she is nothing but eye candy in order to set up the trick and make the magician look impressive. A lot of them are also twins, for various purposes. Some common roles of the Lovely Assistant are as co-host of a game show, a Stage Magician's assistant or object for tricks, or the target of a Knife-Throwing Act. A Sub-Trope of Distracted by the Sexy. A Sister Trope to Chorus Girls. Compare Bridge Bunnies, Foil. Not to be confused with Science Hero's Babe Assistant. |

In Black Canary and Zatanna: Bloodspell, the eponymous heroines need to go undercover in Vegas, and Zatanna changes Canary's appearance so she can be the lovely assistant. The outfit includes a short black feather skirt with a matching feather boa.◊ Of course, given that she's supposed to be the Lovely Assistant of Ms. Fanservice Zatanna, her outfit definitely needs to be pretty over-the-top. | |

WandaVision: The second episode features a town talent show, where Wanda wears a sequined corset and fishnet stockings and fetches props for magician Vision. During the actual show however, Wanda ends up having to pull most of the weight, because Vision's works are literally gummed up. He keeps using his superpowers and she has to find ways to make them appear as mere magic tricks (like conjuring a rope and pulley to make his flying look fake, and hiding his superstrength by turning a piano into a cardboard cutout). | |

In the Discworld as envisioned by A.A. Pessimal, the Guild of Fools and Clowns is forced to accept that it must go co-educational and accept women as members. The key for this seismic shift was when the Guild took over the Guild of Conjurors. As Vetinari pointed out, every stage magician comes with his Doris, the lovely assistant in spangled tights and leotard. Therefore the Dorises should also be Guild members too. And while you're about it... The Fools' Guild now trains Dorises, tightrope artistes, knife-throwers' assistants, lion-tamers, and all categories of women whose working lives involve leotards and spangly tights. After a civil war provoked by the issue of women Fools, it is reluctantly accepted that the girl students should be able to study Troubador, Jester and even Clowning skills, but only as a minor course and strictly in a non-performing sort of way. | |

Barker's Beauties in The Price Is Right (after Drew Carey took Bob Barker's place, they started simply being referred to by name). In late 2012 the show broke its Always Female mold by hiring their first male model — although they had been having male celebrities as "guest" models for some time prior (including a contestant who joked about being one on his shirt), as well as occasions where the male announcer would model certain prizes. |

Fraggle Rock: Convincing John, who can convince anyone to do anything, has a trio of female backup singers, the Fragglettes, who accompany him almost everywhere.

Even when they try to explain the trick to her she is still terrified. Then on the day of the Talent Show Jan twists her ankle and can't perform with Peter, so Cindy steps up and takes her place. Once she's been in the cabinet and sees how it's done she gets very enthusiastic, even wanting to do the trick again. | |

Vanna White of Wheel of Fortune, and the former Trope Namer. She wasn't the first letter-turner on the show (Susan Stafford was), but her iconic nature in the wake of Wheel's 1980s success has made her a quintessential example of this trope. So quintessential, in fact, that the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit awarded damages to White in a suit against Samsung over an early '90s commercial in which a robot was on Wheel turning the letters (in 2012) on the grounds that the robot was sufficiently similar to her to infringe on her life rights. (The great wit of the 9th Circuit, Judge Alex Kozinski, wrote a famous and actually pretty funny opinion arguing this a bit much.) |

On Leverage Parker is this in the episode "The Top Hat Job" as the team is infiltrating a company by posing as the entertainment, a stage magic show. Interestingly her main role in the team is also similar to this in that she is often underestimated and often serves to make her boss look good. Throughout the episode, Sophie (who loves to be on stage) sulks that she has actual experience as this trope and it's not fair that she doesn't get to play the part just because her skills as The Face are needed elsewhere on the job. | |

(UK): The Victim of the Week in "Before Your Very Eyes" is a Stage Magician's lovely assistant who is murdered when the killer sabotages the sword cabinet, causing her to be fatally stabbed on stage. One of the suspects in "Final Trumpet" is Nola, the target girl for the knife-thrower Mad Wolfgang. Part of the act involves Wolfgang throwing a knife to cut off her skirt and expose the spangly bikini she is wearing underneath. |

Carol Vorderman from Countdown was picked for her ability to solve the Numbers Game in her head practically every time as much as for her ability to stand around pinning letters to boards. In the British comedy Panel Show Would I Lie to You?, Carol stated that she played games for most of the 30 seconds of the Numbers Round because she'd already solved it. Since Carol left the show, her (younger, taller, blonder and cheaper) replacement Rachel Riley has taken the role. Though many years before, back in the '80s, solving the numbers game and checking the contestants' answers was Carol's only job. There were other assistants there to put up the letters and numbers tiles note variously including Cathy Hytner, Beverley Isherwood, Karen Loughlin and Lucy Summers- initially each of the games was done by two separate ladies but it soon became apparent this was too many... |
