Omarosa has had two interviews on Reality Remix, one pre show and one after the first episode, so she is getting publicity for Donald.. but of course she can continue to do the interviews after she is booted. In the last interview she claimed that the men, as a group were much more recognizable so it was easier for them to use their fame as a tool.

For me, Omarosa has only been "good tv" once. That was the time she was on "Fear Factor" and she did a very painful-looking face-plant into the water during one of the stunts. I have to admit that I rewound that part many times.

We have to remember that Trump is much more impressed by people who really fight for themselves in the boardroom. I also think Kimmy_1 is right to suspect the editing, because I seem to remember that at one point during the task Omarosa herself was playing up the celebrity angle to the passersby. In the boardroom it was then said that their celebrity status was to be "the icing on the cake." Either her original statement was taken out of context, or the other women talked her into changing her mind in footage that wasn't aired. In any event they lost because Gene contacted richer friends than they did, and he gave them more notice. I really don't think a better location would've made up for such a big difference, or even playing up their celebrity status more than they already were. I'm wondering if they weren't all holding back their contacts for future tasks like Tiffany did. Since she said the thought did occur to her, I'd imagine it must've occurred to all of them at some point. Listening to what the contestants had to say about Omarosa, it sure seems like they respected her and felt they needed her since she was the only one who has played this game before. Once they get the hang of it they'll probably be more comfortable with letting her go. I do agree that she has at least as much celebrity status as some of these other people, even if she doesn't have as many celebrity friends. My suspicion is that the Gene Simmons business about insulting Ivanka will turn out to be nothing. Trump seemed almost amused when he was talking to him.

I remember Omarosa with those kids and in her interview she did mention her charity being for a kids organization in Compton, so there's something good about her.

I would suggest that plenty of men would have been paying extra $$$$$ for a hotdog AND a pic with porn Star Jenna Jamieson. she might even have brought in the most money LOL anyone notice how she quickly put a hand up to hide her mouth when she took that Big Bite of hotdog?? It cracked me up. habits die hard.

I think DT and Mark Burnett are coaching Oma on her character and that is why she is on the show. Just like Pamy said, Oma is the perfect soap opera villian. We will see her get her comeuppance in the latter part of the season and ratings will be huge and we will all be celebrating her dismissal. The show has to have a villian, and what celebrity is going to take that role since they are on there to promote themselves in a positive manner. Hence we have Cruella Deville in the form of Omarosa. I can see Marilu and Gene having a big hand in her demise.

I agree none of these celebs would agree to be the villian but Surreal life ends up with villians,not sure they set out to be one. Oma and Janice were great villians/rivals together on that show

I don't think ratings are gonna be huge. I think the ratings MAY be respectable, but only because of the lack of regular programming. And, LOL Mame! Great minds do think alike! I'll try to stay outta yours and Stacey's heads, 'K?

In yesterday's Parade mag (which is written way in advance, considering that they ran the interview of Benazir Bhutto with no mention of her death), Trace Adkins was the subject of a Question Q How does country star Trace Adkins rate his experience as a contestant on Donald Trump's NBC Show Celebrity Apprentice? A "I thought it would be fun," Adkins, 45, tells us, "but it turned out to be an exercise in restraint to keep from killing some of the other celebrities, especially Omarosa."

Personally, I think Trump should be honored to have Vincent Pastore and Gene Simmons. They are A-List in my eyes. (any Kiss fan or Sopranos fan would say so)

Marilu is more A than B list and Trace Adkins in definitely A list. Stephen Baldwin C list, if that. A playboy bunny? C list at least. But then what list would Trump or either of his kids be on?

Not one of these people, except Marilu and *maybe* Gene Simmons is close to even A. Barely even B. I honestly had never heard of the following before this Apprentice: Tiffany Fallon, Jennie Finch, Nely Galán, Piers Morgan, Tito Ortiz and Trace Adkins. The other's names might have been familiar to me, but I didn't really know who they were...('cept Nadia).

I got the feeling that Trump thought that Tiffany was too young and may not be able to handle the experience when it gets ugly. And, Hef can always make an appearance if they bring back the fired candidates for help on a task.
