The Apprentice


Mr Donald Trump

Mr Donald Trump spun off to great success on TV with his endorsement of The Apprentice. They all said it & I agree with them. "All wanna be like him, but NONE wanna look like him". Hah, how sad is that. Maybe Mr Trump should start another reality series like Extreme Makeover, with him as the first surgery candidate to go under the knife.

I know i'm a hopeless reality tv junkie, I watch almost everything & anything. But, who can blame me? Reallity tv has such a intense attraction that draws you to the google box for each episode of every damned series.

I know that The Apprentice 1 is history ages ago, but Channel 5 is showing The Apprentice 2; which is also history as the series is finished in the US & Mr Trump has already has selected his 2nd apprentice from the reality series (Mr Kelly won, outdoing Jen M). You can check out www.nbc.com for more.

Well, of course I'm watching the 2nd season now. But there are always some very livid/colourful characters & media portrayal of the contestants. I shall mention a number from both instalments.

Bill Rancic I definitely remember Bill Rancic as one of the most good-looking guys on season 1. What's more, he's already a entrepreneur before joining the show; he had his own cigar business. He has the million-dollar smile & charisma that always evolved around him.

His competitor, Kwane Jackson gave him good competition in fighting for the opportunity to be the apprentice. He was just as outstanding but less vocal. But I thought he blew his chances when Omarosa made things difficult for him during the final task; including "losing Mandy Moore", the star of the show at the Taj Mahal Casino.

Omarosa was a pain in the a** with her bossy attitude & she pissed everyone off on her team. She claimed a concussion when a tiny piece of cement hit her darn head. I figured that the cement suffered a worse fate, compared to her head. Hah !

HeidiBressler.jpg Oh, and who can forget Heidi? She's the gal that drops the F-bomb ever so effortlessly, kinda like me....haha! She battled with her emotions when she learnt halfway during the show that her Mum has taken ill & had to undergo surgery to make things right. Kudos to the lady!

Ok, now comes the climax. Can you still remember the "romance" between Nick & Amy? They were so oblivious to the others & had them all guessing if they were for real. But, alas, Amy revealed at the end of the show that they are merely friends.

Ok, now comes season 2. There are more weird characters this time round.

Let me begin with Bradford. If you are an avid follower of the show, you know what i'm talking about. He forfeited his "exemption" & got fired in the most dramatic manner by Donald Trump.

Then, there's Raj; the man with the bow tie & walking stick. He always makes me laugh. Remember the Ciao Bella ice cream task? He looked like one whom really sells ice cream for a living at Times Square; with his bow tie & bermudas.

Not forgetting Stacie J, whom by far was fired in the most unbelievable fashion. She was accused of being "mad" & having a spilt personality & Donald Trump actually believed that! He ordered the other ladies from the suite back to the boardroom, to confirm that all of them agrees that Stacie J is a nutcase. I find it absurd that she was fired this way, being Donald Trump; i thought he would have been more methodical on this, then just relying on hearsay.

Ok, keep watching & I figured I'll have something on American Idol 4 soon as the Top 24 are finally selected.
