good lord...why are people on this board out to get Omarosa? She has personally done nothing to anyone on this board. I don't understand the reasons behind the hatred and why anyone would want to hurt another to such an extent. What does anyone here care that she is making BK commercials? No wonder some people think that internet people have no life. I didn't care for Omarosa on the show, but no way would I try to keep her from furthering herself in anything she wanted to do. I'm flabbergasted that anyone from this site would put so much energy into trying to hurt her...

My prayers to Kelly and Therisa Stewart

I can only speak for myself. But when someone out and out lies about another person slinging racial slurs towards her...well that's enough for me not to want to see her schilling for anyone. It is my right.

And I do have a life lol.

That doesn't sound good at all.. you don't want to hear "serious and aggressive" in the same sentence as "cancer". Ladyt.. thanks for reporting that.


==========

I think most companies DO want feedback on their advertising campaigns. I wrote to Carl's Junior and did boycott them as long as they ran the "messy juicy sloppy" ads.

I have seen the BK ad with Omarosa once and found it incredibly jarring.. not as hard to hear as Gary Coleman in his current ad for the loan sharks who do payday loans.. Just complaining to each other does nothing IMO. I think having people in ads because they are controversial just takes jobs away from others who are simply there to promote a brand.

Seamonkey, what is a "messy juicy sloppy" ad? (and what is Carl's Jr.?)

Carl's Jr is a hamburger chain (like BK or McD's). They appear to be largely in California. They were running these ads for ages where they showed people biting into a huge burger and having stuff splat out. I can't remember the tag line. Their latest ads have been about the $6 restaurant burger (meaning you get a better cheaper burger at Carl's Jr).

Lady, I'm sorry I didn't respond to your post. But I had a bad thought about exactly how Kelly could HELP his GF. (I don't think he can really help her other than SUPPORT her, and there's a world of difference, and lately I'm tee'd off at the incorrect wording in 99.9% of all press releases and so rather than posting something negative, I didn't post at all.)

AFA Omarosa... she's gotten her 15 minutes of fame plus. (She's even gonna be on Fear Factor next month.) I'm sick and tired of seeing her smug face everywhere. She showed zero moral integrity and now she's being rewarded for it?

Honestly, if I ate burgers, I'd boycott that place.

I wonder if the next Apprentice gets to manage this new complex.

Trump Tower Tampa in the Works

A 220 million dollar luxury high-rise which will be Florida’s tallest residential building on the Gulf Coast.

The ritzy 52 story Trump Tower Tampa will be built on a now vacant lot on the Hillsborough River in downtown Tampa.

Residence will range from 700-thousand dollars to over five million dollars. It’ll include such perks as valet services, exotic wood finishes and imported marble floors with inlaid onyx.

Construction will begin in April. The building could be ready for occupancy near the end of 2007.

It looks like Kelly will also be involved with Trump Towers Tampa:

There's the hired help: software executive Kelly Perdew, the recent winner of the popular reality TV series The Apprentice , is assigned to promote the Tampa project for his new boss, Donald Trump.

LOL... "promote". NOT manage. Promote. Glorified salesperson. LMAO!!!

Lady, sure that's sad news. But I don't her, never heard of her. There are hundreds of people out there now, with breast cancer. Including a close family member of my own. I think I have more than enough compassion but I'm not gonna get all freaked out when I hear that someone I don't know (and will never know) has breast cancer. I'd rather save my freaking out and worries and thoughts for those I know. You, of course, may have a different view. (Three people I know have had BC in the past year. One of those was very aggressive, and she now also has cancer in her liver. ) <QT>

Wow I personally think its great that Omarosa is the only reality show person to actual make a success at it. I mean to be in a BK ad and a funny one at that. She's taken her role as "villan" and turned it into a success. And let's face it we'll never really know what happened.

I nearly spit out my soda when the ad came on, it was so hilarious.

She mad a success out of being on one TV show and did it without stripping her clothes of for a men's magazine. Amazing....yeah she should burn in hell for that..how dare she.

C'mon now people, the show is over. And the ad is funny...it really is.

Doing an ad for BK isn't the success I think she had in mind. LOL

There is NO DOUBT in my mind that she made up the story that she was called the N word. <QT>

I saw the commercial and laughed. But I still don't like Omarosa or how she acted in relation to the show. I can't say that I would buy burgers because she's in a commercial. But thanks for the chuckle Burger King!

There have been any number of reality "stars" who have been in print ads and commercials. One difference is that many of them are young and untrained and it is probably a real step up.. but the people who come on Apprentice tout themselves as worthy of much more in business.. not hawking burgers in some ad, IMO.

And, sorry, but it wasn't funny at all to me, a potential customer, and that's what I told the ad agency in my email. (I don't claim to be in a majority with my opinion but I certainly will take the time to share that opinion where it might count)

I haven't had the "pleasure" of seeing the commercial. Could someone describe it briefly. Thanks!

Jimmer it's based on the BK series of commercials at an office. So a group of workers are standing around getting their BK burgers. The supervisor character is handing them out and calling the burgers by name. So then he says "bacon BK (blah blah) burger...who's man enough to admit they ordered this?"

In walks Omarosa in a red suit and says "That's mine...Omarosa's in charge now."

The group looks stunned for a second then everyone is really quiet but they're all staring at Omarosa.

She glares back at the manager guy and he quickly looks down. She does the same to the "cute girl" and another geeky guy. They both quickly look down and then she leaves and another guy says "Oh man this is gonna suck!"

The funniest part is the looks and how they are intimated and look down at the floor quickly.

Which leads me to believe that there will be more commericals with her in it.

Overall I think Omarosa has had more exposure and has done well with her 5 minutes of fame than anyone else. Save for Elisabeth on the view.

I can't wait to see the others in the series. I like the Office BK commercials anyway. They're hilarious.

Thanks Mssil!

I don't think we are getting the commercial here in Canada. It sounds pretty funny from your description.

I didn't watch the first season of the Apprentice, so I don't know as much about Omarosa and don't have very strong feelings about her - but then again I don't tend to have strong feelings about anyone who appears on a TV show!

'Apprentice' Cast Will Sail to Caribbean
UPDATED - Tuesday January 11, 2005 3:59pm

http://www.wjla.com/news/stories/0105/199729.html

NEW YORK (AP) - Two words sum up a trip being offered to fans of "The Apprentice." You're sailing!

An eight-day cruise themed on the hit NBC show will sail from New York to the Caribbean on Sept. 26, after a bon voyage party in Manhattan with a send-off from Donald Trump. Cast members from the show - including Bill Rancic, the first apprentice, and Stacie J., Jennifer C. and Raj from the second season - will be on board. The trip will take place on a Carnival ship, The Legend, which is being renamed Trump World Legend for the week.

Guests can meet and talk to cast members about the show, but there will also be on-board competitions involving teams and tasks, just like there is on TV. Participation will be open to all passengers. In addition to cash prizes, one person will win the grand prize - spending a day as CEO of Expedia.com, which is sponsoring the cruise. The CEO-for-a-day will get a $15,000 paycheck for all that hard work; first-class airfare to New York and ground transportation by limo, plus a stay in a five-star hotel.

On-board events will also include lectures on business and career topics; a masquerade ball; singles-only events; and a poker tournament. Regular cruise amenities will be offered as well, including children's programs for guests traveling with kids and shore excursions. Stops are planned in San Juan, Puerto Rico, where there will be an evening of club-hopping; Tortola; and St. Thomas, where a golf tournament is scheduled.

Wouldn't be my thing, but it sure sounds like it could be fun, or a wake-up call, for those of us who sit on our butts and watch reality tv and think we could "do it better". Here's a way to try to prove that, and have a nice cruise as well.

Wow I just read the post upthread about Kelly's GF. I pray that everything turns out OK with her. I'd be willing to bet Kelly is being a rock for her and supporting her in every way possible. He seems like the kind of guy, IMHO, who would move heaven and earth to help her get the best possible care and to make sure she is comfortable.
