Celebrity Apprentice – Week 6: Two Contestants Get the Ax from Donald Trump

As winning project manager from last week, Tionne (T-Boz) Watkins gives a $20,000 check to her charity, the Sickle Cell Sickle Cell Foundation of Georgia.

 Donald Trump meets with the teams, and once again mentions Dennis Rodman and his issues with drinking. He tells the team that Dennis is getting help for his problem.

New Teams and a New Challenge

Donald rearranges the teams, putting Hershel Walker, Clint Black, Joan Rivers, Natalie Gulbis, and Khloe Kardashian on KOTU. Jesse James, Melissa Rivers, Annie Duke, Tionne Watkins, and Brande Roderick will comprise Athena. Joan and Melissa are now on separate teams, but Joan says they are both competitive and will fight hard to win for their individual teams. Brian is away at a concert, and Trump will decide which team he will join next week.

 For the next challenge, the teams will create a viral video for All Small and Mighty Detergent. Melissa Rivers is chosen for Athena for her 15-years of producing experience. Clint volunteers for KOTU, saying he has directed 12-15 country music videos. The winning project manager will get $20,000 for their charity.

Both Teams Want to Use Midgets


The women of Athena instantly suggest the concept of midgets bathing Jesse James. Jesse, however, says he is not comfortable with that concept. KOTU also wants to use midgets in their video. Clint comes up with a dirty joke, and convinces the team to use it as part of the video. Hershel is away and will return at the end of the task.

 Executives from All describe the target audience for the video: women 25 and older. They are "women first" and anything that would be offensive would be going too far. The title of the video is also very important.

 After the meeting, Team KOTU realizes they will have to clean up their original idea. Clint, however, is set on using the concept, and brushes off input from the other team members. At one point, Joan Rivers gets down on her knees to beg that Clint listen to the team.

Athena Has Midgets Bathe Jesse James

On Team Athena, Annie and Melissa clash a bit, but overall everything is organized and running smoothly. Melissa is a very good project manager. Annie researches the most successful viral videos and sees that midgets are used in many of them. The women convince Jesse to go along with their original concept of three midgets bathing him.

 Don Trump, Jr. checks in with Athena just as the midgets arrive for their audition. He asks the team if this is the right concept to work with the demographic. The midgets are dressed up as Tide bottles as they clean and swear at Jesse James. Everyone on Team Athena thinks the video is very funny.

Clint Black Shuts Out His Team

Clint continues to shut out his team members. Joan is shocked that he is acting like a tyrant, and also upset with the other women for not speaking up. They hire a midget to act out the lines of Clint's joke, and it's obvious he won't work. Joan asks Clint what his Plan B is, and he decides to be in the video himself.

 Joan is so mad at Clint that she says she will never work with him again. By the time Hershel arrives, he realizes things look bad for his team. He suggests putting pop ups over the heads of the people in the video to try and make it flow a bit better. When it comes time to edit, however, Clint locks the door and works alone with the editor.

Perez Hilton Gives His Opinion

Trump views the videos with the All executives. Then he calls celebrity blogger Perez Hilton for his opinion. Hilton loves the video with Jesse James, but says neither video seems to hit the demographic All is looking for.

 In the boardroom, Jesse says working with the women was a great experience. Joan reiterates her displeasure in working with Clint. The teams watch both videos again before Trump tells them who won.

Double Firing


The executives from All hated both videos, so there was no winner. Melissa says Tionne volunteered to come back into the boardroom. She also brings Brande back with her. Trump reminds Tionne of a previous Apprentice contestant named Bradford, who volunteered to come back into the boardroom and was prompting fired as a result. Trump doesn't like people who volunteer to be axed. Tionne is fired.
Clint brings Khloe and Natalie in with him. Trump tells Khloe that he didn't like the fact that she left last week because of a DUI class she has to take. He says he didn't know that she had gotten a DUI and wouldn't have allowed her on the show if he had. Despite Clint's obvious failure as a project manager, Khloe is fired.

Pop Celebrity Comebacks: The Reinvention of Take That, Spice Girls and More

The one thing celebrities should expect, in order to survive, is that trends change faster than Beyonce’s costumes at a concert. What propelled them to fame may be what audiences are completely sick of after two years; but ten years later, it may be what audiences are craving, and voila – the key to successful comebacks. Here are some of the most prominent pop celebrity comebacks of recent years. Take That  With a number of hit singles including Pray and Everything Changes , the band hit a bend in the road when Robbie Williams quit in 1995, which led to the eventual split in 1996. After a string of largely unsuccessful solo careers, Gary Barlow, Jason Orange, Mark Owen and Howard Donald reformed Take That in 2006, and came back with a bang with their sold-out Ultimate Tour around the UK. They even picked up the Best Live Act at the 2008 Brit Awards, proving that it just takes a little Patience , and now they’re Back For Good. Kylie Minogue  The ex-soap star has...

Celebrity Over-Dose Deaths Ignites War On Drugs: Legal Drugs Cause More Injury-Related Deaths Than Vehicle Accidents

The abuse of prescription drugs is becoming an American epidemic as the legal and illegal use of powerful pain killers rises in nearly every age group spanning the country. The majority of these drugs abused are prescriptions for opiates and methamphetamines which can be highly addictive and effective in their ability to produce the desired effect in the user. “Drugs have always been a problem in America”, says Habbas Nassar, a licensed pharmacist and anti-narcotics advocate, “but now the pharmaceutical companies have developed drugs that can compete with the potency of street drugs, and all you need is a note from a doctor. The transaction lacks the dangers associated with buying street drugs, and the drug is assumed ‘safe’ because it came at the recommendation of a doctor. People have the tendency to think that if it looks professional and is distributed by professionals, it can be trusted. This just isn’t the case”. Prescription Drugs - Modified Street Drugs?
