I think Aubrey did a great job last night and I honestly believe that the only reason the guys lost was because of the signage. I am not an Aubrey lover, and I agree she just talks way too much, but dang, the girl is a natural at marketing work. The Crystal Light people really seemed to like her and what the girls team did-just the correct signage wasn't there.
I think it would have come down to the same issue had the men's team lost. That was their only complaint about the men, too. That the signs were too low.
Ultimately, I think it depended on which demographic Crystal Light was aiming for. While it is used by many dieters & diabetics, it is not known to be a high end drink. The casual, party beach scene fit a more casual demographic.
Also, how mad would you be if you were one of the losing PMs of past weeks when you found out Trump gave Aubrey's charity 10K just because he 'liked' the charity she picked?? How totally unfair!!
Trump has given away his own money before to other players who didn't win, in past seasons.
Also, it annoyed me when Trump asked Clay for which 2 people he'd bring back and when Clay was explaining Trump got all angry and told him to just say the names - he didn't need explanations. But when he asked Aubrey she was allowed to explain freely!
I was getting annoyed myself.
We know from the private interviews that Clay is not all sweet & innocent. He also knows from all the previous weeks how it goes. Remember how Adam Corolla AND Michael Andretti both got fired as Adam wouldn't name someone. People have to be named even though they all did well. In previous weeks they did that. Trump also didn't need to hear why Clay was choosing who he chose because ultimately, Clay's team didn't lose. If they did, the three would be sitting there and Clay would have his chance then to explain his reasoning.
Ultimately, I think Trump makes people name someone so that the show can use it for the commercials & previews.
I was surprised the guys won. Both parties were fine, but I thought the execs were more impressed by the ladies and by Debbie's original song. I guess the branding issue was huge.
Branding on this show is huge. But, Debbie didn't have such a great song that the Crystal Light people wanted to use it beyond the party. That says a lot.
The guys have no respect for her, I can't imagine what's gonna happen when they mix the guys with the girls.![]()
I think Arsenio may be friends with P Diddy. So he may have gotten a mouth full about her, if he had called up about her.
The men's team seems to know too much about her, for just their encounters in the Boardroom.
