Never heard of:
Lil Jon
Hope Dworaczyk
NeNe Leakes
Excellent use of the blow job smiley. 
Was Hope Dworaczyk even in the episode? The only hot blonde I saw was Niki Taylor making pizzas. Wiki says Dworaczyk was the 2010 Playmate of the Year and that she has a fashion show on the E channel, in Canada.
I’ve never heard of her, or Lil John, John Rich, Niki Taylor, or Mark McGrath.
Lisa Rinna I know as somebody’s wife – Harry Hamlin? And wasn’t she on the first season of Veronica Mars? I think she’s had some of the fat removed from her lips. They don’t look nearly as puffed as usual.
I think Hatch will play the game just as well when he’s not PM, just because he so obviously knows how to play the game, and how to play Trump. He did seem to struggle with his temper though.
I’ve heard of all of these people sans NeNe Leakes and Hope Dworaczyk. I think I had an awareness that someone like NeNe Leakes exists, though.
I can’t say that I know why Lisa Rinna is a celebrity, though.
I think Marlee just feels more comfortable with her interpreter. I’ve seen him a lot; he goes with her on talk shows pretty often. In a scenario like CA it can be a real disadvantage to not be able to catch all of the conversations (which is probably primarily why he’s there), and it allows her to be more “immediate” in communicating with her teammates.
Star Jones looks worse sans weight, but I guess having open-heart surgery will take the wind out of your sails a bit. She wasn’t a great manager, and it was monumentally stupid to shut down the shop. Couldn’t they hire a bike courier or something to get those pizzas delivered? And once the best pizza award was given, you can stop worrying about quality. Make shitty pizzas quickly! Regardless, that was an ass kicking of epic proportions by the women - woulda been worse if they had made that delivery.
Hatch is a dick but I think being the first PM, it’s better to err on the dick side than everybody’s friend. The men are sorting themselves in alpha dog order and it’s pretty clear that Cassidy was at the bottom. I’m actually glad Trump fired him, because he basically made himself the prag of Team Penis, or whatever they’re called. Hatch was pretty dumb to make Casceco an enemy.
Lisa Rinna was on “Days of Our Lives” for several years and was on “Melrose Place” for several more, that’s how she first became known. After that, she’s done all manner of other things, hosting on SoapNetwork, selling things on one of the home shopping channels, she’s also done DWTS, she and Harry Hamlin had their own cameras-follow-us reality show and so on. She’s now famous for being famous but once upon a time, she was an actress.
And yes, she did recently have a lip reduction.
Per her autobiography, it’s very difficult for her, especially in uncontrolled situations, being able to pay attention and to try to modulate her volume and all of that is just more taxing than its worth, especially when she’s got her trusty sidekick, interpreter extraordinaire and business partner Jack Jason by her side.
I would watch just about anything for Marlee (and Jack) including CSI, (which she was on about a month ago) but I can’t bring myself to watch this. Mainly, though, it’s because of Trump. I utterly cannot stand him. He’s a wildebeest of ego.
She did have her lips reduced and she spoke openly about how she had previously had too much done to them. She does look somewhat better.
Yeah, she was Logan’s Mom on Veronica Mars for about half a season of the show. She is married to Harry Hamlin(who was Logan’s Dad) and that is all I know her from.
I have absolutely no recollection of seeing Hope. She’s either MIA for most of it, or the worst show-off in the whole wide world. Niki was gorgeous making pizzas - her tattoo was a surprise to me and I thought it was lovely on her. Dionne Warwick wore me the fuck out trying to work that machine. Channel that psychic energy into running the credit card, woman! Yeah, Star made a mistake closing but I think for the first PM of that group she did pretty OK.
The guys - man, I love crazy. My favorite part is John Rich, Lil John and Gary Busy in the van deciding what to do. I’m a sucker for “wow, you’d never think they’d be friends and they’ve bonded over music!” Well, maybe not bonded, but at least gelled. Richard was a dick and a half, but I recognized the attitude from a guy that I used to work for. He was the owner of a large company and it is the kind of attitude you have to have sometimes to get ahead. I think Richard will end up burying himself if he doesn’t learn to get people to buy in to what he’s doing instead of bullying, but at the end of the day Jose’s “truth and justice” doesn’t make money, and that’s the point of the game.
Can’t wait for next week. And remember folks: where the pepperoni lands is where the miracle will happen!
Hope is a brunette.
I think all she had was a quick 15 second confessional-type appearance.
Wasn’t Lisa Rinna on a daytime soap-opera for many years? I seem to recall it was “Days of our Lives” but I could be wrong. She seems awfully familiar as a face I recall seeing on my mom’s favorite soap from back in the day…
Yep - she played Billie I believe. Came between Bo and Hope.
She was a model, starred on ‘Days’ and Melrose Place and married Harry Hamlin.
Yes. I bothered to Wiki her. 
Gary Busey went to my high school, and he was a wild and crazy guy, voluble and creative and fascinating. But I never thought of him as scary. Now he scares the bejabbers out of me. If I saw someone like that on the street waving his arms and hollering about pepperoni, I would run the other way.
When Gary Busey was on Celebrity Rehab, Dr. Drew said he acts the way he does because of a brain injury he suffered from his motorcycle accident.
I remember having read about the motorcycle accident. I’m sorry that he suffers aftereffects from it. From what he said on Apprentice, Gary has had cancer, too.
Richard Hatch has been ordered back to prison for 9 more months.

WTF is wrong with this guy? He’s already spent 3 years in prison. Now, he’s in trouble again for not refiling like he was ordered to do?
I wonder how much of The Apprentice is already filmed? Sounds like Hatch won’t make the Live Finale for sure.
Is there anyone on this show that hasn’t had tax problems?
It’s done filming. I think they filmed it around August-September of last year.
What the fuck is this “I want my name on the cover” bullshit from Star and Dionne?
Yeah, it’s not like they’re actually getting royalties for the thing. Or are they?
The ladies font was way, way too small in that book. That had to be deliberate. I guess Star wanted a little sabotage. Anyone with two eyes would know to increase that font.
I thought the guys did the better job. But, what Trump likes matters.
