Hmmmmm...any chance that Trump has his fingers in the pot for Arsenio's return to late night?

 

[beatlesblonde]

You don't actually believe that do you?

Well I'm not old enough to remember Arsenio's show so I only have what he said as my source for info.

 

[npmommie]

See, now I thought CLAY was the superior leader keeping his eye on everything. I felt Arsenio was lackluster and took a backseat a lot of the time as a leader.

I agree
I truly thought Clay should win, and was a bit disappointed.

another agree. something is up. it was quite obvious to me clay should have won. when he picked arsenio I was kind of shocked.

and did anyone else catch when they were discussing Aubrey and how she felt about Arsenio.........then arsenio says " She gave me a donation in private" and made funny eyes. then Trump says "did she really?" then arsenio said "no"
I thought that was kind of rude. it got kind of quiet when he did that.

honestly I like arsenio to a point, but I think he has a nasty crude streak. and I don't think Trump should have forgotten that, whether he apologized or not. It shows true colors when words like that come out of your mouth.

I felt the same way, especially considering that Clay and only Clay was going to be on the chopping block for this challenge. He couldn't point the finger at Debbie if the mural was bad. He couldn't blame Aubrey if Trump didn't like the carnival concept. This seemed like the one challenge where micromanaging was the way to go.

I was pretty surprised that Clay didn't win. He raised more money and I felt that his party was not only more fun, but also applied to his charity in a great way. And, while they didn't show us the entire variety show, I do feel that Team Clay was much more fun to watch - and appealed to a much larger audience.

I like Arsenio, so I'm not horribly disappointed. Just surprised.

I agree. Clay seemed to be more in control of his team, whereas in most challenges, Arsenio's team usually got away from him (but luckily he ended up winning). I was rooting for Clay, but either one is a good win since they were both so likeable. I'm surprised Clay didn't win, and I can only assume it was because Trump felt that Arsenio's charity was more in need of the money.

Once again, proof that everything Aubrey touches turns to cr@p!

I am happy that Arsenio won! Although I would have been fine with Clay winning too. They both did a great job, and they did have different leadership styles. Clay got on my nerves a bit (the micro-managing was outta control) but I can understand it was HIS charity on the line.


The real question I have is this: Did anyone notice when they were showing all the previous winners that ALL of them sat in the same seat? (ie, if you are Trump, over to the left.) Arsenio sat there as well. Hmmm....

Same thing I had said to DH. You would think they would switch it up a bit to not give it away.

 

[Imzadi]

I don't get how Arsenio won? Clay raised more money, threw a better party and had the FAR superior variety show. I like Arsenio but it should have been Clay.

You do know we only saw an abbreviated version of both shows. I doubt that Arsenio, Adam & Lisa only did 2 jokes each while up on stage. Or that all the singers on Clay's team only sang partial songs.

Michael Andretti is the Chairman, President, and CEO of Andretti Autosports. This weekend was time trials for the Indy 500, with the race coming up this weekend.

I think he was a little busy in Indy last night.........

Considering his father, legendary Mario Andretti gave Trump a ride, I wasn't expecting Michael to be there, too - even if the Indy wasn't on the same day.

Duh. Course I know that. But of what they DID show, I personally thought Clay's show was better.

 

[Imzadi]

I think if Trump likes you, wants to give your career a jumpstart, then he will pick you. I know Joan Rivers made a big comeback after winning. I didn't watch but maybe three episodes of that season so I don't know if she deserved to win, but I think she won because Trump liked her and liked having an older contestent win.

Trump & Joan Rivers are actually friends in real life. I used to cater for one of the very high end catering companies here, that my cousin does the bookings for. I used to see Joan Rivers hobnobing with the Rockefellers, Gettys, Astors, Estee Lauder's family, etc., at some of those parties.

In one episode, Trump even called Joan out on the fact that they know so many of the same rich people, and asked why she didn't call them for money. Her daughter, Melissa reamed him out in the boardroom about it. He KNOWS she can't just call up all these billionaires for money for a TV show, no matter if it is for charity. That is not something to be done when you are in he inner circles with them and Trump knew it. She'd never be invited to another event with them, if she started calling them for their money.

 

[Imzadi]

....actually, I was hoping for a tie. oh well.....

I was too. BOTH guys deserved to win for their own merits. But, I guess that wouldn't work too well for future shows if there can be a tie.

I agree. Clay seemed to be more in control of his team, whereas in most challenges, Arsenio's team usually got away from him (but luckily he ended up winning). I was rooting for Clay, but either one is a good win since they were both so likeable. I'm surprised Clay didn't win, and I can only assume it was because Trump felt that Arsenio's charity was more in need of the money.

Actually Arsenio had to rein in Adam & his ideas several times.

While I believe Clay deserved the win, I also believe trump had identified his winner very early in the game. With that said, I think both Arsinio and Clay are genuine, class act men who deserved to be in the final two.
I also believe that Lisa donating to Clay and not Arsinio was very telling, including the manner in which she did it. It was clearly obvious by doing that and then seeing her just after they announced Arsinio the winner that she wanted Clay to win. If she just wanted to donate to his charity and being truly charitable about it, she could have donated and not make it so obvious and all about her. I also think she was trying to sabatage Arsinio by her foul mouth during her part of the comedy show. She roasted Clay for crying out loud. Really a nasty, mean, vindictive woman...menopause is no excuse.

This is the THIRD time I have said this on his thread. Get your facts straight people, (people in general.)

Lisa gave all the donations she collected, that would have gone to her own charity had she been picked as one of the final 2, to Arsenio, when she first sat down & started working for him. That amount was $50,000. Minus her personal donation to Clay, Arsenio was $40,000 ahead by her donations.

I didn't take his comments as more rude than what Aubrey said about Arsenio.

I agree with S.C., I think he was spoofing on the fact that Lisa gave a donation in private to Clay. That Aubrey did that for him. Then the way Trump questioned him on it, it took on a sexual connotation that wasn't originally part of his joke.

 

[npmommie]

I thought the sexual innuendo was rude and disrespectful to aubrey.

Dont get me wrong i dont likeaubrey. But all she said was she doesnt know him as a man and doesnt care to.
She didnt make any crude joke toward him

Guess i am still stuck on him calling her the c word

This is how I took it, nothing sexual...IMO

 

[npmommie]

I realize he was spoofing. It was his eye movements that made it weird not trump asking. Jmo

According to Arsenio and Clay, there was more to that argument Arsenio and Aubrey had weeks ago. Supposedly while her, Arsenio, Theresa and Clay were in the van or room, Aubrey was showing Theresa pictures of naked men and made some comments that could pertain to Arsenio. That is why supposedly Arsenio blew up. Aubrey is denying it. Clay is saying Aubrey showed him the pictures also.

He said this on the View too, that she said she would only date black guys and pictures of her past boyfriends body parts...and were showing them in the van to everyone.
