Diets be damned.
A bevy of brides-to-be stuffed their faces during yesterday's Bridezillas Cake-Eating Contest in Times Square in a bid to win $25,000 for a dream wedding.
"I spent the last six months going to the gym, watching my carb and sugar intake," said Dana Ford, 34, of Hackensack, N.J. "Now I'm just taking one for the team."
The WE television network and WPLJ radio selected 15 fiancées from the metro area to compete in the contest celebrating the fourth season of "Bridezillas," which premieres on WE at 9 p.m. Sunday.
The women donned dresses from David's Bridal and were given 2 minutes to eat 15 minicakes. Long Island's Stephanie Florio scarfed down nine cakes for the grand prize. "I'm absolutely shocked," the 34-year-old said.
Asked how she'll use the money toward her wedding and reception, she said, "All the flowers and food I want."
