and the winner is...

The 75 year-old batty lady did it!

congrats Joan....

t-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-e-a-m!

I don't care what any one says...I love Joan Rivers....love that she speaks her mind, even if she is crazy.  She just cracks me up when she talks about Annie...and I will tell you...she's half right!  We will never hear the end of her and her pompous self patting on the back about her jingle that she wrote!  She totally is a "look at me...look what I can do!"...makes me want to hit her!  But, her jingle won and Clint lost, he was fired...no tears from me.

On to the interviews....

If I wrote all of the thoughts I had when I listen to Annie go on and on this post would be forever long!  She is just so full of herself it drives me crazy...and am just hoping Jesse makes it to the final 2.

Brande the first to go...no shocker!  Then Jesse...so crappy!  Of course, I am not surprised in the least...of course it needs to be between Joan and Annie...they hate each other...it's all about good TV right?  So now...I'm all for Joan....go Joan!!!!

Cry me a "Rivers"

I no longer have much respect for Annie Duke...I think she is totally 2-faced and mean.  She is very full of herself and, in her opinion, the only one that is good at anything! Melissa River's description of her is spot on.  I don't really like Melissa all that much...however, Annie and Brande could be a little less obvious about their disdain towards her.

I read this on a celebrity apprentice blog...

"Anne is from the dark side of our world. A lot is going on behind the scenes and her "sweet smile" regarding money, control, paybacks, IOU's, threats, snake-like activities and behavior. Anyone who does not back Anne better watch out for retribution from the underground. Donald, if you fire Anne, you'll have to watch your back more than you ever dreamed. Don't get me wrong. I DON'T want her to win! However,by having her participate, you have gotten this show into the wrong hands by allowing her to manipulate and control events which will ultimately control you and your demise.Mark my words. A year from now you will rue the day you even contemplated having Anne be a part of this show."

Kinda interesting!

It was totally Annie's fault that her team lost last night.  The entire Ad was her idea (and I thought it sucked) and she also did the presentation...so if they lost it should fall on her.  If not her...then Brande, who gave her all the responsibility and allowed for her to run the show.  Melissa did just what she was asked (not really anything)...but she did it!  I don't think Melissa should have gone much farther...but last night was not her turn!  I was irritated, because I feel Donald wouldn't fire Annie or Brande because they have brought in more money...hello Donald, this task wasn't about raising the money! 

Oh well, Melissa is gone and man did she go out in a big way.  

She was beyond upset, and probably rightfully so, and showed everyone how mad she was. I loved how she informed the producer, on camera, that she wouldn't be doing an interview. I think it was a bit much and a bit too pouty pants...but whatever! Even her mom stormed out with her...c'mon Joan...I actually like you...come back and win it for you daughter if you want...just come back.

The winning team....Clint, Jesse and Joan...that drama is a whole other story!  I can't stand Clint...but I wasn't real impressed with Jesse and the bashing and name calling he got in to. Jesse is very talented and good at what he does...I think that Clint did try to incorporate Jesse's idea...unfortunately, Clint wanted to add too much!  I didn't like the direction Clint went...I hated the fire orange whatever that was...but I did like the striping on the side. I do think that the execs made the right choice...but it was way too busy.  Anyway...my main problem with this team last night...is that Jesse didn't really express his opinion.  Maybe it was just editing...but whenever he was asked a question, he never really answered.  He expressed himself well to the camera...I wish he had done that to Clint.  By the time he finally told Clint he hated it...it really was too late, and he expressed himself like a 13 year-old.  I think if Jesse had spoke up sooner with his thoughts...more then "do my idea"...their ad would have been great...!  Anyway, doesn't matter...they won and were all safe! 

I do think that Jesse is pretty hilarious! His comments about Joan in the board room..and then laughing 'cause he really does like her.  It's funny to me how serious he always is...totally an act!  When the 3 were watching the girls in the board room and Joan said, (in regards to Brande) "both her boobs can count to 10".  Jesse was busting up...but covering his mouth and trying to hide it!  I would love to see Jesse off camera...I bet he is a hoot!

My thoughts for next week...hopefully Joan will come back...hopefully Clint will get fired...and I'm sure that we will definitely see Annie stab someone else in the back to improve her standing...she is conniving!

Maybe he's a "little" famous...

First firing of the night...poor little Natalie. 

And the reason...picking out small pieces of jewelry that was hard to see from the runway...probably a fair enough reason.  But the exciting part of the show...ALL the drama that went on in the board room between Mrs. Joan Rivers and Annie Duke.  I've never been a huge fan of The Rivers duo...but for some reason, Joan has grown on me and I don't mind her so much.  Plus, she's OLD...(76) so give her some credit for going the way she is.  Annie on the other hand, was a fav of mine from the beginning...but I do think she has gotten a little cocky and she can get on my nerves a bit...

Step to firing #2 of the night...

Talented football player turned "frozen food business man"...lost the challenge over making a frozen food dish...awesome...and thus, FIRED!

Oh well...I'm highly routing for Jesse James, so keep booting off the guys (only lame Clint Black left to go)...the girls will take themselves out with all the caddy fighting...and Jesse can come out on top....OHHHHH I hope!!!

not so "celebrity" apprentice...

I missed the show last week...I'm not even sure why...but I did, and I am pretty bummed about it...my girl T-boz got the boot...and the reasoning for her firing...she "volunteered" to go back to the boardroom because her team felt they did well together and one person didn't do worse then another...Donald fired her and told her to never volunteer...whatever...

Chloe Kardashian also got fired because she missed part of the previous week's task due to completing court ordered something or other from her DUI.  Donald got on his high horse and went off on her about how much he hates people who drink and drive (did he not know about this before she started on the show)...so he fired her as punishment!  Funny...didn't she miss the previous task because she was completing punishment (note: I am not a fan of any kardashian)...I just love Donald and his high horse!

As for this week...Brian was fired.  A fairly uneventful show...up till Brian got fired.  He had checked out before the show started and could care less.  

The best part of the first half...was when Joan thought Annie Duke had "betrayed" her daughter Melissa...and the claws were drawn. She got all fired up and told her team if Melissa got fired she was leaving...Oh Joan...Annie is a poker player...she "bluffs" for a living...what did you expect!

and then...another task....another firing???

The task: auction my daughter's jewelry....PLUG!

and then the caddiness begins....even celebrity females get nasty and caddy...Awesome!

Favorite Joan quote: (referring to golfer Natalie choosing the jewelry to be auctioned)..."I wanted Natalie to feel like she's part of it and she's not just an athlete that's she still very feminine, which she is, and uh...she's straight, which for a golfer is very unusual"...yep, she said it!  Then Joan is unhappy with her choices...what can you do!

Of course it will have to be continued...but first...let's bring back Pearse to spy on all the drama!

Cocky little british man...

Sunday Reality...

I can't decide if it is hilarious...or just awesome...that the women on Celebrity Apprentice took the prize again...3 weeks running ladies!  Hurray!!!!

Not such a hurray week for this guy though...didn't he just say last week that he wanted to stick around so that he could be project manager and "show" Mr. Trump how great he is...nice work Tom!  You got sent home over one of the strangest men on earth...Dennis Rodman!

Why can't the non-elimination round occur when teams I like are the last to arrive...like last week when cute couple Amanda and Kris got "yielded" and ended up going home...

Nope...these two silly girls get a second chance...

Christie and Jodi...better luck next week!

Now these are celebrities...

I usually don't enjoy watching non-reality folk on my reality shows...however, since most of the "celebrities" are from reality I thought I would check it out.  Oh, and was I happily surprised to see some old favs of mine...so yahoo for Donald and his egotistical show!!!  I will most likely be cheering for the women's team, 'cause really...I like more of them then the boys.  I do love Brian McKnight and all his R&Bness.  But now, without further ado...my 3 favs...

Poker player, Annie Duke!

She can bluff with the best of them...has won a WPT bracelet AND  she beat the most aggravating player in the game which makes her top notch in my books!

Okay...this one cracks me up...but hey, she seems nice enough...celebrity...not sure about that...

but Claudia has made a "name" for herself on deal no deal...or as I like to call it...money no money!!!

And my favorite of them all....T-Boz!!!  I LOVE TLC (RIP Left-eye) and I am glad to see Tionne is still a "celebrity"!
