Celebrity Apprentice: You Piece Of Trash

Donald Trump has to be lovin' this season of his Celebrity Apprentice. His last few seasons of The Apprentice were downright boring and did horrible in the ratings. Of course, that never kept me from missing a single episode. There's just something about him I like. I'm not talking about his looks and I'm not necessarily referring to his money. It's his power in real life that always hooked me. You also have to give the man some credit for being smart.

Smart is exactly what he was when he put together this celebrity cast. The ratings have been wonderful (it's been renewed for a second season) and that's due, in no small part, to the inclusion of Piers Morgan and Omarosa Manigault Stallworth in the cast. There have been fireworks between the British tabloid editor and political consultant since the first day. It began as relatively minor verbal sparring but has now turned into an all out war between the two egomaniacs.

On this week's episode, Donald realigned the teams because the ladies had been doing so horribly in the previous weeks. And guess which two ended up on the same team? You guessed it -- Omarosa and Piers. He was the Project Manager for their team and both of them agreed to a truce for the task. The truce lasted just one night. The morning of their task began with Omarosa misspelling Piers' name on a sheet of paper, him basically calling her stupid, her then calling him an ass and telling him he wasn't a good father, and then him calling her a tramp. It was all quite funny.

Their teammates, Lennox and Carol, didn't find it so funny. They tried to distance themselves from the pair for the rest of the day. The fighting never stopped and escalated instead. Piers "fired" Omarosa from his team but she wouldn't be taking orders from him. Instead, she began doing the exact opposite of what Piers had asked his team to do and continued hawking their carriage ride tickets to passersby on the street. I was laughing so hard at that!

Amazingly, their team wound up winning and neither would be fired in the boardroom. Trump did take them off of the same team though by having Omarosa and Marilu switch places for the next task. Do I think that will keep them from fighting in the future? Absolutely not!

I can't decide on who is the primary instigator in all of this: Piers, who hasn't gotten along with many of the others too well on his team, or Omarosa, whose personality is entirely too abrasive and over-bearing. Perhaps I'll be able to make a decision next week!
