Apprentice Finale-Spoilers

[Jeafl]

OMG! I just heard on the radio that Omarosa is in negotiations to have her own talk show! Who on earth would waste precious moments of their life to listen to her flap her jaws???

A network would have to be nuts to give her a talk show. I think people may tune in just for the train-wreck value though.

Unfortunately, Kwame didn't really have a choice as far as choosing Omarosa. Bill had the first pick, so Kwame was going to have the last pick no matter what and I don't think Bill would have ever picked her. I read on another web site that there is speculation that Kwame chose her for his second team member so that she wouldn't be the last person chosen, possibly to avoid making her angrier and even more spiteful!

That's what he said on the Today Show this morning. He thought if he picked her last, she could very well be spiteful. But it looks like that backfired on him. If she was the last one picked, then he could have said he didn't really pick her, he just got stuck with her.

I really wish we've seen the last of Omarosa, but I know we haven't. I'm just so sick of her.

Bill had the first choice -- he didn't pick Omarosa.
Kwame had the second choice -- he picked Troy.
Bill had the third choice -- he still didn't pick Omarosa.
Kwame picks again -- let's say he didn't pick Omarosa.
Bill picks his last team member -- no way he's picking Omarosa which leaves Omarosa for Kwame.

No matter what, unless Bill took leave of his senses, Kwame was ending up with Omarosa. Considering the huge chip on her shoulder, I think she would have taken it as a personal insult if she had been the last person picked. I think Kwame knew he was getting her no matter what and he really was trying to do some damage control.

I get how it worked, it's just that it would have looked better in Trumps eyes if he had to take her last.

Omarosa? I thought Kwame was going to win due to his educational and employment backround. He was correct about micro managing, but you can only trust employees to their own devises once they have proven themselves to be worthy of such trust. Omarosa was obviously a wolf in sheep's clothing. She sabatoged Kwame's chance. I thought Bill was a bit too high strung. His team was getting upset with him. I'm sure he will learn to delegate while working for Trump. I think Omarosa will get more attention and offers due to shock value, and face it, that's good tv. I equate hiring her to the food segment on Fear Factor, or maybe when they submerge the contestants in bugs. Not pleasant, but fun to watch. If she does go on the second season of this show, she will probably be last picked every week. I wonder if Trump emphasized what she did to lower her credibility in case she ever threatened to sue the show?

I can't believe how "sucked into" this show I got . I don't like DT, at first I didn't like any of the candidates except Troy. But I watched it religiously every week, even the reruns! I think Kwame (although he seems to be incredibly intelligent and sweet) cut his own throat by hiring Omarosa. (Up until the last minute, I thought for sure she was going to be unveiled as a plant-couldn't believe that someone would actually be like that!) She out and out lied to him twice-with the cameras rolling!!! Why would she do that to Kwame?? I think that her intent from the start was not to win, but to make herself stand out in such a way that NO ONE would forget her name. She succeeded! Bill really deserved the apprenticeship, and I totally understand his choice in projects, although I was thinking about how nice it would be to work on that golf course every day..

Although it was totally unexpected, I thought the ending with the live audience cheering and the stage walls falling away to reveal them was incredibly cheesey. Donald Trump live without a script came off as sort of tongue-tied to me. I was also glad that we could see that Carolyn can actually smile, and is not a total b***h as she had appeared to be in the past 13 weeks.(I know, it's part of the show...., but it was really nice to hear Carolyn and George talking UP someone's performance instead of constantly tearing them down. They were actually "fighting" for their guy!)

I had wondered how many of the candidates were offered positions in the Trump organization. I would have thought they would have kept that hush hush, so that with the next Apprentice we won't all be thinking, "Well, if they lose they will still have a job with him."....

Does anyone else think that if Kwame had fired OmaRosa, he would have won? I do....

DH and I watched the finale together, and as soon as Kwame was talking about not firing Omarosa because he didn't have that luxury (in the clip with him on the park bench), I said to DH that that move cost him the job. He might not have been aware that he could fire her, but attempting to do so would've really impressed Donald. I think it would've been a bold enough action to secure Kwame the job. I also think that at the very least he could've taken ALL responsibility away from her. She basically only seemed interested in sabotaging Kwame and hanging out with Jessica Simpson.

I was rooting for Kwame, but I really like Bill too. He will do a great job.

She was on a lot of talk shows and seemed very persoanable. She was actually funny on a couple of them.

Did you see her on the View a week or two ago? Joy Behar kept making comments like she only got the job working for Trump because she's pretty. Carolyn seemed to have all to do not to go after her, she looked really offended (as she should have been).

Ha! Like Carolyn is the Don's type anyway!

I was disappointed that Omarosa already has a contract for a shampoo commercial...I cannot imagine them thinking she is a good spokesperson. YUK!

Must be a shampoo for head lice. Afterall...she is a parasite!!!

GOOD ONE!!!! LOLOLOL

I agree with many of you: DH and I thought she was "planted" to make it hard on Kwame--to see if he has the right stuff for Trump. But THAT is actually how Omarosa is --definitely not a team player! On Oprah she said that she was portayed to be mean and arrogant--that wasn't a portayal--THOSE TRAITS WERE IN LIVING COLOR! I know I wouldn't even hire her as a cashier in our business. I'll paraphrase what Donald Trump said on Oprah, "Omarosa, you're VERY intelligent and smart, but you won't be successful when 95% of the people don't like you."

I remember liking her early on, and I thought Heidi was SOOO rude and unprofessional. But, MAN, when Omarosa was fired, DH and I stood up and CLAPPED, HOOTED, and HOLLERED ! She really is a piece of work. I know she's getting TONS of attention now, and I DO have a feeling that she, Sam, and Troy will be on the next APPRENTICE, but I hope SHE NEVER WINS.

I also heard that Omarosa is planning to start a clothing company ...

Too funny!!

 

[BHFan25]

Yeah, I like Carolyn before I saw her do any talk shows. I guess we all notice different things...

Head lice...GOOD ONE!

And while we are at it--What is up with the Donald's hair and brows. Ick, his roots and long tuft of hair blowing in the wind make me nauseous! Like he can't afford to go to one of THE best colorists/stylists in NYC?!

True. . VERY true! He did mention on some show that he thinks the show's ratings would go down if he changed his famous "dead squirrel on the top of his head" do. I say, "Donald, it's time for a change!"

My mother taped the season finale and I finally got to watch it.

When I saw Kwame say he didn't have the luxury to fire Omarosa I said to myself "Are you sure?". I wonder if he even checked into it and just assumed he couldn't. I mean, he was in charge and I would think have the power to hire and fire. I know he said that if he had then he would have been one person short but which would be better? One person short or an employee that is sabotaging your job?

I like Omarosa at first but it didn't take me long to see her for what she really is, someone that doesn't take responsibility for her actions, always having an excuse why someone/something else is the reason why it didn't work. I commend her for raising herself up out of the projects, but showing millions that you are a liar...... I would be so ashamed.

Supposedly the shampoo in the works w/ Omarosa is Clairol Herbal Essences.

 

[Kirby]

I meant to post this earlier. My mom showed me a newspaper article that said that Mark Cuban (Dallas Mavericks) has offered Kwame a job and he is pondering it. The article also implied that Donald Trump was not real happy about it and he (Trump) and Mark Cuban were not on the best of terms.

 

[KLAIT]

I saw last night that the Herbal Ess. cancelled her commercial late last week. That is too funny. I told my husband that I cannot believe that anyone would want her as a spokesperson after the way she acted in the final. I guess they hired her way before the final was shown and after they saw that and the backlash, they cancelled it right before she was to begin taping on Friday....ha!
