Oh Marameko - you missed a great skit!

It was during the Weekend Update with Tina Fey (T) and Jimmy Fallon (J). On comes "Omarosa"(O) (played by Maya Rudolph) dressed in a suit and with attitude, waving like the Queen. "Omarosa" states that she wants to speak to Donald Trump. She needs to "converse with him". Then she demands to be addressed by her full name - Omarosa Manigault-Stallworth - "because she is a proud African American woman."
She goes on to say:
O: "Mr. Trump is a fool, for he should have named me The Apprentice. You see I am a leader and a strong Nubian woman whose strength is only rivaled by the Bionic man or The Rock. I didn't get in this business by being a wimp and I am not ever going to let anything beat me down!".

Then a LITTLE piece of plaster falls and hits her in the head. She lets out a loud "OOOOWWW"

O: "oh not again. A piece of plaster has fallen on my head. Oh my God the PAIN! I've got yet another concusion. I'm suuuure of it"

T: "come on, it was just a little piece of plaster. You're tough. You can get through it"

O: Tina Fey, I think it is appauling that we should be expected to work inside this television studio and not be provided with hard hats

Then a LARGE piece of plaster falls on O's head

J: oh, that looked like it might have hurt. that piece was way bigger

O: Oh Jimmy fallon, I know you did not just call me the "N" word

J: no no - I said it's BIGGER bigger

Then a stage light falls. O grabs her chest and yells "my jewelry"

J: this is strange it seems like things are only falling on Omarosa Manigault-Stallworth's head. It's weird.

Then a series of things start falling on her head:
a pizza pie
bowling ball (which also hit JF in the arm and he joked wow, that hurt me too a little bit)
a birthday cake (they all started laughing)
a dictionary - abridged
a dictionary - unabridged
fax machine
loose paper
garbage pail
(each time she was hit with something, she let out a loud "ooooowww")

O finally falls after that. and that was the end of it

-------------------
Also, in the skit with Donald Trump and "Star Jones" (I believe was played by Kenan), Donald Trump comments "Believe me - you can't believe a word Omorosa says! You just can't!"

--------------------------
I loved the opening sketch where they're in the Board Room with Carolyn and George (the real ones). that was really funny.

i also don't really think Omarosa is a plant - mostly because of all the snarky comments made since she's been fired (snarky comments from DT as well!)

I know this is a stretch, but I was also thinking that perhaps they reshot this weeks episode after all the publicity Omarosa got, figuring it would be a real ratings grabber. (the first half hour would be the original footage when 2 people are fired, and then the "new footage" would be the second half hour). If they did reshoot it, it wouldn't change the outcome of the winner, (since it will be live on the 16th) so it could be possible. (but I do doubt it). Was just a thought...

I can't wait to see what it's all about!!! Hope it's not disappointing.

btw - I think it's funny that Omarosa is somehow involved with the Taj Mahal [judging by the preview for the upcoming episode] and there's been all this press on how poorly the TAJ has been doing

I saw a commercial tonight for Oprah's show tomorrow (4-8), with Donald, Heidi, Ereka, and Omarosa--looks like a cat fight!!!!!

Here's the official blurb from Oprah's site:

"How to Get Rich with Donald Trump (PG)
Donald Trump faces the apprentices he fired! Heidi, Ereka...and this you've got to see—Omarosa is here! Plus, "The Donald" tells you how to get rich!"

Of course, as Oprah says it, O-mar-OOOOOO-sa...

wow - what PR for tonight's Apprentice.
Today's Oprah; plus, they will be showing the Spiderman 2 trailer during the Apprentice (and advertising that fact)

Tonight's Apprentice will probably be the hiiiighest rated show EVER on television <said in my best Donald Trump imitation>

LOL. I'm glad I'm not the only one who's noticed that he doesn't pronounce H's at the beginning a word. Actually I'm noticing that quite a bit in the media lately. Wonder what the deal is?

I have a YOOGE amusing story. When my daughter was in the 4th Grade spelling Bee, the word she was asked to spell was Huge....the woman pronounced it Yooge, My daughter looked at her funny and said, could you use it in a sentence and the lady said there is a Yooge ship.Finally my daughter asks you mean Huge with an H? Her reply, Yes Yooge

LOL. I have a friend in Philadelphia whose name is "Sidewater." In Philadelphia, people say "water" strangely....so she was at a hotel where the valet asked her name before he parked her car and she said "Sidewater." "And how do you spell that, ma'am?" "Just like it sounds! Sheesh!"

When she got her car at the end of the evening, the ticket said "Sidewooder."

Gotta love these articles. Katrina should learn to get her story straight.
First she says that she "heard she (Omarosa) had pushed a cameraman. Then she says that "People were accusing me of being violent with her (Omarosa)? That's because they didn't see her push the cameraman 2 seconds earlier."
Well according to Katrina's own words neither did she, she only "heard" that it happened.

Well, this just takes the freakin' cake.

Right now, on Oprah, DT is plugging his new book. But before he gets to tell people how to get rich, Oprah spends the first 30 minutes bringing out Hiedi and Erika.

Then Omarosa came out (and got to sit on stage with DT and Oprah while the other two sat in the audience). Oprah brought up the "n" word thing and Erika and Omarosa got into a verbal spat. Omarosa kept touching DT's arm too. <il>

This is total crap. I have so little respect for Oprah right now. Since when does she have to stoop to have this crap on to get ratings?

I have to remember to watch or tape Oprah tonight. Thanks for the reminder.

But hey, there may be big competition for Donald Trump. Here is the article. I always liked this guy, what an incredible "entrepreneur"!!!
And the show seems more exciting than the Apprentice.

Read this:
New York -- As Donald Trump basks in the popularity of his NBC reality show, The Apprentice, the Fox network has announced that Virgin Group's Richard Branson will be leading a group of young entrepreneurs on a global journey.

Branson's Big Adventure, the working title of the show, will air later this year, Fox said Thursday.

The show will feature "a select group of America's best and brightest," who will fly to international destinations and relive some of Branson's experiences. Each week, one candidate will be left on the tarmac as the rest of the group jets off to the next adventure. AP

She also kept talking over Ereka when Ereka tried to tell her side of the story -- I guess Omarosa was afraid that if she let Ereka speak uninterrupted that O's lies and inconsistencies would come out. Her story now is that people physically attacked her on the show. She ended with saying she was gainfully employed but that she heard Ereka's was looking for opportunities, and she (E) shouldn't use her (O) to get ahead. As Ereka said, from the audience reaction of groans, even they saw through that one.

I don't think I'll watch the show tonight. Just my little bit to try not to support this type of behavior.

I am watching Oprah. Donald, Heidi, Erika, and Omarosa are on. O is bringing up the n word, long discussion about it. She said that she was also called a lot worse names than that on the show, Oprah and Donald want to know what and O commits the ultimate slip - she said something to the effect that in her imagination she could not come up with those low terms. Now how do you accuse people of coming up with names more horrible than the N word and then say you can't imagine what they are??? A handful in crowd cheering O and most in crowd cheering E about the discussion. O wants E to agree to put all this to rest, E told O that she wouldn't until O told the truth (good answer!!). O said she was also called b**** alot, but Oprah said the N word was far worse than that. E also added that it was horrible to be accused of using the word falsely.

Concerning the whole issue of O claiming she never said it was E who called her the N word, E said that since the View shows that Inside Edition showed her a clip where they had interviewed O prior to the O taping the View and O states on tape that it was E who called her the N word. O stumbled over that one and E reinforced that the Inside Edition tape was made before the View shows were taped.

Whew, maybe someone else saw this too and can fill in the blanks. Also, Carolyn is on the show and she looks fabulous, much younger than on the Apprentice. Maybe the board room has bad lighting.

Carolyn looking absolutely fabulous was the best thing about this show.

I am pissed right now. Was it just me or did Oprah continue to feed the O and E fire just to continue the drama? Again, I ask, since when does Oprah have to stoop so freakin' low?

O also accused someone (I think either E or H) of flirting with the producers.

I agree about Oprah. SHe was fueling the fire, calling for names of who slept together and allowing O to talk over E rather than give E a chance to speak uninterrupted.

I love that Carolyn admitted that she said "Omarosa lacks credibility"!

Omarosa hasn't changed one bit.
I'd like to see where she is once this show has been over for awhile and no one wants her for publicity.

And I thought Heidi looked great! So much better than when she was on the Apprentice.

Beach, I caught that too!!!!! I was dying!
She made me absolutely crazy! To say that everything that happened to her was racist and how "black women are consistantly portrayed on reality tv". She took the work b*tch as being racist..any anger at all against her must be racist. Ske kept talking about how she was at peace and moved on. What a wicked scary woman she is. She sort of reminded me of Jim Carvel (who I like). They have the same righteous zeal in their belief in themselves.

Texannie! I had forgotten that idiotic comment she made about how black women are always being portrayed as the ones who stir things up. What a load of b.s. Immediately, I thought of Cassandra from Big Brother 1 and how she was NEVER, EVER as rude and confrontational as O was. Nor was Cassandra edited to appear belligerent.

I want O to just go away already!

I just watched it again (on tape) because I missed pieces when it aired.

Does Omarosa have any good friends? Is there anybody that can get real with her and tell her how bad she makes herself look? She's had so many inconsistancies in her stories already! AND she's condescending to boot.

I'm really surprised that the infamous piece of plaster never came up. I wonder if there is a possible lawsuit in the works...


what I don't get is that Donald Trump said he has not seen Omarosa since she's been fired - but yet O is on tonight's Apprentice episode (which would have been filmed in advance). hmmmnnn...


I don't quite get why Donald likes Omarosa so much - and even sort of instigated Heidi against Omarosa - and then praised Omarosa so much for the way she handled things. Huh?
O is lying and exaggerating stuff about what happened on DT's show, (not to mention inconsistancies in her work background) and I don't think she proved herself as an excellent manager or anything to gain DT's respect that way. I don't get it.

Omarosa on Oprah...Oh Brother!
Opie can be so tacky. And why the special treatment for Omarosa? She gets to sit by the throne with the Donald, but the others are in the audience? Omarosa must l-o-v-e to play the victim. Sheesh! She needs to get off the cross. We need the wood.

Oh, but I know Ericka feels vindicated now. I mean the Allmighty Omarosa has officially forgiven her for calling her that name. Now we can all move on.

Please, just let Omarosa MOVE ON!
