Re: Omarosa

Paging Jane Fonda. This week, she basically summed up my feelings on Omarosa.

My feelings exactly. He didn't fire one of the losing team because he wished they hadn't lost? They didn't do enough to win and one of them should have been sent home. Tito is worthless so he probably should have been let go.

Good God man. Do you see what he has to go home to? 7-10 years ago I thought he'd be a lucky man. Now I feel sorry for him. What the hell did Jenna do to herself??? I always thought she was hot when she had some weight on her but now she starting to look like those anorexic twins they show on Entertainment Tonight. Did her exhubby take all her food in the divorce?

So much hatred for Omarosa. Piers is a male equivalent, a bitch. Had enough of his nasty attitude and big mouth. What has kept his from being fired? Because he has some rich connections. What else has he done? He wore some retarded knight costume while insulting people.

Darn straight on the hatred toward Omarosa, while Piers has been spewing the hatred he at least keeps it personal as far as just to that person and no one esle related to them. When you start talking trash about someone's family, especially the way Omarosa did is just way too much. She even admitted that she was hitting below the belt and laughed about it. I expect that kind of behavior in the schoolyard, not in the business world(even if it is a reality series).

Yep. This would have been a boring challenge otherwise w/o that - the call-your-rich-friends for donation tasks has gottent really old. Trump and the producers know exactly what they are doing. She is a real bitch though - but we knew that from the 1st time she was on.

Also, Jenna Jameson has almost wasted away to nothing. Her legs looked like twigs.

The difference between Piers and Omorosa is that Piers actually gets results. He's abrasive and egotistical, but he consistently has better ideas and better execution than anyone else on the show (Trace arguably has better ideas, but hasn't shown any ability to turn his great ideas into reality.) Omorosa is abrasive and egotistical without the positive qualities to balance it out.

I feel both Piers and Omorosa were behaving badly. Actually, saying they behaving like children would have been a compliment. I've seen Piers many times on this show and his 'hit' show and the guy seems nothing more than a complete turd. The blowhard said he would leave if Omorosa was on his team. It's a shame that it was all hot air.

I don't know if all this player trading happened on the non-celebrity versions but I don't care for it. I guess 'the Donald' was saying the women couldn't cut it. OK, that's one thing. Then men are going to women's team and vice versa and for reasons unknown to me, Trump decides to switch Marilu back to the other team. She didn't even bat an eye after enjoying the brief stint on the men's team.

thankfully less omorasa this week.. hard to argue with marilu being tossed, i don't know if she even was on one winning team.. she has great energy but she is a frentic teammmate.

How the hell does Carol not know QVC easy pay? Huge mistake by Marilu, she might have been able to survive bringing her in.

But both worked for QVC in the past, so Marilu should have know it as well.

This season has been pretty decent, by making a lot of it for charity it has taken the edge of the in your face marketing blitz.

I would have fired Sleepy Boy since the only thing he's offered over the course of the whole competition is a very recognizable face.

I can't blame Trump for firing Marilu though - 1) She definitely should have brought Carol back and should get blame just for that. 2) She should have known about EZ Pay. You really have to lived under a rock to not know about EZ Pay, although I have my doubts that it would have made the difference.

I was shocked at the decision to bring Trace onto this show, since I had my doubts on whether he could contribute or not, but I would have to say that he has been the biggest surprise in my books. I don't think that he will ultimately win, but he has been great on most of the tasks. I think that overall, Piers should win.

Yeah - Trace was great once again. His style, demeanor, and presentation was perfect for that QVC sales format.

I agree about Trace. Easily my favorite of this very entertaining group. He not only rocks the tasks, but he's hilarious, too. Bunch of B-listers, but pretty great casting.

I thought it was fairly obvious from the opening moments who was winning the task and who was getting fired.

Having Carol Alt on your team was a huge advantage on this one.

Don't really understand the thought process behind having Tito give the presentation. Seems like a task better suited to someone like Stephen.

Trump can be such a jock-sniffer at times.

Tito's presentation was amatuerish and awkward. Not his best moment on the show.

I was laughing my ass off at Omarosa. She was SO hot to be PM, then Trump says that the PM of the losing team will more than likely be fired, and without missing a beat, she says 'unless one of you want it'. CLASSIC! Jeeze, she's such a troll.

I'm really getting tired of Trump saving Omarosa, because she's "good tv". Clearly she threw tito under the bus by bullying him into being PM. She even basically said it at the board room. Plus she's 0-2 for as PM herself..

Tito presented terribly, but I think it's more the groups fault for letting him or them not stepping up to their strengths, then it is Tito being a bad PM. I think he deserved to be fired, but no more then Omarosa.

Next week's preview looks great, I really hope and assume Piers romps her as head to head Pms, if not I think it's pretty bad if he gets let go although he's won as PM (2 times already I believe) to Omarosa's 0. Her calling him a homosexual is even at a lower level then the child thing.. She really is just pure trash. I expect to see her on Flavor of Love soon

Yeah, what a coward! She's so good at passing the buck too. I doubt her idea of putting Trace half naked in front of two shirtless male models would have helped them win much either.

The previews of this week's show made it seem like something x-rated was going on with the guy and Carol Alt. Wow, he kind of bit her. YAWN.

Trump had so much praise for Tito. I was sitting there wondering why. Yes, he made the executive decision between O and Stephen but he didn't come up with any ideas. Nothing he did before really sticks in my mind.

It's a good job Tito can fight well because he can't speak for shit. I knew he was gone the minute he started talking in that presentation.

I was at photo director Lennox's comments during Carol's shoot.
"That's the money shot, baby!"
"You just come in behind like you want to get some too."

That was the best part, like he was directing a porn flick. That and Steven Baldwin talkin about how everyone tells him he could be a studio director, advertising executive, etc...

I've never watched a full season of this show, but Im enjoying this Celebrity edition for some unknown reason.

Plus, the one task he "won" as PM was only b/c the Kodak people didn't like what Gene Simmons did.

Other than having Jenna Jameson show up twice I don't remember him doing anything else in any of the other projects.

This was a no-brainer for me, just because of how incredibly poor Tito's presentation was. The right person went home, but not for the reason that I would have given.

Carol is attractive, but those photos of her were too over the top staged for me, with her enormous fake smile on the first one. And I thought that the biting picture was in bad taste and stood out, it should have just been a kiss on the shoulder.
