Celebrity Apprentice Recap #1: A Family Affair

Team Infinity
Team Infinity

 

The Task

Develop a four page fitness editorial to be featured in the hot and healthy pages of Cosmopolitan and to be featured on an app. Teams will be judged on creativity, originality and overall presentation.

Team Infinity

Kenya Moore, Brandi Glanville, Kate Gosselin, Vivica Fox, Shawn Johnson (Olympic Gymnast), Leeza Gibbons, Jamie Anderson (Olympic Snowboarder)

Project Manager: Jaime Anderson

Good Lord. Jaime is playing for a climate change awareness charity. I hate her so much. Since they have two Olympians on the team they are using that as their theme, “Trained by Olympians.”  Kenya points out that Cosmo is a sexy magazine She wants to have a girl with the words Touch Me and that is the area you will get information on working out. I suppose that is for the app? Jamie says she can teach them how to get the Kenya Moore booty. Brandi says, “You just buy it.”  And we are off to the races. Kenya Talking Head 2014

Jaime assigns roles.  Kate will help with accounting and time management. Kenya is asked to write she also volunteers to edit. Editing should not be done by the writer, Kenya.  Brandi starts whining that Kenya can’t do everything. Brandi is irked that Kenya wants to be the model. They are bringing in a male model.  Brandi wants Jamie to be the model. Jamie is built like a fireplug. Then the girls decide to put Brandi in the ad, which is better than Jamie, but not as sexy as Kenya. I can’t believe Kenya didn’t point out she has a fitness tape for sale.

So Brandi who never works out is going to be doing the fitness moves instead of the athletes who will only be quoted underneath. You know, Brandi Glanville who has never worked out in her life and has zero muscle tone. Makes sense, just like global warming. Kate and Vivica go to buy props during the shoot. Kenya gives Brandi modeling tips during the shoot.

Jamie doesn’t know what she is doing.  Brandi won’t take off her jacket and she is wearing long pants. Suddenly she is self-conscious. And then she is not. She is naked wearing a bra and panties and a table napkin. There are two poles with this one.  The Olympians shots wrapped in the flag looked good. The women begin to struggle with their concept.

Their presentation was lead by Jamie,  perhaps not the best choice. And the ladies all wore black dresses. Kenya does some of the presentation. She is a great speaker. You really don’t see enough of the finished product to know how well the teams did.

Celeb Apprentice Vortex Boys

Team Vortex

Ian Zierling (Beverly Hills 90210), Lorenzo Lamas, Geraldo Rivera, Terrell Owens (Football), Johnny Damon (Baseball), Sig Hansen (Deadliest Catch)

Project Manager:  Johnny Damon

The men are looking at a lot of Cosmo layouts to get an idea of the feel of the magazine. They are focusing on the sexy. Geraldo wants to incorporate selfies into the layout. He suggests they use his that he posted on the Internet a year ago. He’s pleased as punch that it went viral.  The guess like the selfie idea.  Their theme is ” Love Your Selfie Naked.”

Johnny has a wife who is a model so he is going to use her for the model. Geraldo does some uncomfortable body to body work at his insistence where he role plays being Johnny’s wife.  Lorenzo directed the still photographer.

Terrell is hot as hell. That is all.

Ian wants to include a poll dancing essay on their layout. Geraldo hates the idea.  Ian takes a photo with the female model in by the pole while he is dressed for business.  Geraldo becomes the Brandi of Team Vortex and strips down to his boxer briefs and wants a photoshoot. Geraldo just said he started the selfie craze. Lorenzo points out that Geraldo will not appeal to the demographic.

Their presentation was led by Johnny who may not be the best choice as a speaker.  This season you barely get to see the presentation. We see literally two minutes. It’s hard to say.

The Boardroom

Jamie is very confident. Donald asked Kenya who the star was Kenya said herself. Jamie agreed. Trump asked Brandi about Kenya and after not much prodding Brandi says that Kenya is “evil.”  We apparently missed A LOT between these two. Kenya’s response is that it is consistent with Brandi’s personality to try to say something like that in the boardroom. Kenya says that all the women can attest to the fact that Kenya has been nothing but kind to Brandi, and yet Brandi makes cutting remarks under her breath all the time. Some heads nod in agreement. Brandi says that is not true. Jamie tattles on Brandi’s comment about Kenya buying her booty. Brandi tries to lie and say it was because Kenya was coaching her during he shoot. Um, no bitch the comments were well before the shoot. Kenya clears that up.

The men win the competition.

Jamie blames the housewives for the loss. She said they both wanted to be the model. Jamie is not very good at speaking up for herself.  The board is coming off hard on Jamie. Leeza hints that she would fire Kenya. Brandi says she would fire Kenya or Kate.  Kate says she would fire Brandi because she is so negative.  Vivica says the girls that drive her nuts are Brandy and Kate.  Trump asks about Jamie and she basically says she did the best she could. Shawn sits on the end like a lump and goes unnoticed.  Kenya says she would fire Brandi because she is toxic to the group, she starts rumors and says nasty things. These people are all ridiculous. They are just throwing the people they don’t like under the bus regardless of their participation level. Leeza sticks up for Brandi and says she is a hard worker.  So Jamie decides to bring back Kate and Kenya.

Kenya tells Jamie it was a big mistake on Jamie’s part not to bring back Brandi as she is the toxic element in the group. So when they go back in, Jamie tells Trump that she made the wrong choice about who to bring back. OMG. This is just pathetic.  She is so fired. Jamie told Trump she thinks Brandi should be going home. Trump fires Jamie. Kenya hugs Jamie and tells her Brandi played her.  Nope. Kenya just played Jamie and managed to get her fired over her, because Kenya was in danger.

Vivica hugs Kenya when she comes back safe. So they are getting along up to this point. Brandi is pissed.

For last week’s task, go here.

    This is the first time I have ever watched celebrity apprentice, but had to check it out after reading your blogs and since both of my fav. Housewives are on it. Although I can’t really pull for brandi until she gets back in with Lisa and stops the trashy attention seeking personality. First off,wowzers could vivica’s face get any wider? Dayuumm. And kenya is always so beautiful on the housewives but on this one, her hair looks crazy and the angle of her laugh annoys me. But I keep rooting for her but I’m not seeing the high road shade that Kenya normally throughs.

    Brandi at least up to this point has nothing but a case of the green eyed monster. SO FAR I can’t say I have seen Kenya do anything that would warrant the treatment she’s receiving. And for Viv and Leeza to co sign on Brandi’s childish behavior is beyond me. What is it with these middle aged women taking Brandi under their wing? Ie.. Lisa, Yolanda, now Leeza. Now Donald Trump is saying ” well…Brandi has been through a lot” Puleeeeze!!!!

        Barbinga, meant to reply to you but for some reason I can’t. Anyway, I agree w/ you but w/ Brandi it’s not a truth cannon – unless you can consider speculation, rumors & hearsay truth. I.e. Lisa living in the valley, being bankrupt, is best friends w/ Scheana – all lies. Then when she tried to say her comment about Kenya’s butt being was said at the photo shoot in response to Kenya’s direction, when we all clearly saw it was in their brainstorming meeting.

        My boyfriend, who hates that I watch the housewives, saw CA last night & right off the bat started commenting on her lying ways – she is the worst kind of liar, the kind that believes her own bullshit.

        Over & over Brandi is caught in her lies but never recognizes that she & her bad behavior are the root of all drama.

      Me too. His ego is crazy big BUT he has accomplished a lot and he is smart.

      I haven’t decided if that “Neat sweeeet” thing or talking loudly on his cell was Geraldo showing his crazy or if he was play the game and crazy like a fox. He had gotten under Ian, Lorenzo’s, and Jonas’ skin. His new team loves him.

    So basically if you have enough connections to beg for money you won’t be fired! Also if those connections flake on you then you are fired too?? Ugh how stressful! I was feeling bad for Kate I thought she wouldn’t come through! I wonder who brandi begged for money? Ian is the biggest brown moser ever lol! Love him! So brandi is really playing the sympathy thing! Didn’t see the first half but is she really doing the catty remarks?? Oh my gosh! I didn’t care much for Jamie but I’m sorry brandi played her!

      One of her big checks was from planet beauty – I googled them & it turns out it’s one of the companies she hawks/tweets about for a dollar. Since clearly no sane person would want to befriend her & give her money – Yolanda doesn’t count b/c… lyme disease… she’s not all there.

    We have all known girls who play the pity card in hopes that they can sucker some man in to rescue and protect them. What a fool trump would be to become that man for brandi. She is such a phony. I can see her trying to sit on his lap too or maybe one of the sons laps. In about 2 minutes she will be telling everyone that ivanka is her bff. I’m sure she was sucking up to the whole family at every opportunity.

    If Brandi wanted to be used so badly in the issue then they should have went with the Olympians workout theme. That your body starts off looking like this skinny drunk and after proper diet and exercise it can turn into a fit body like Kenya’s as the after. Toned and fit enough for a miss USA.

      Did y’all notice Shawn confront Vivica about bringing up her menstrual cycle in the boardroom? She said something like ” if I had brought up menopause in the boardroom, you’d be embarrassed too.” That comment leads me to believe that maybe SHAWN was the one who stole Vivica’s phone and tweeted those jabs about hot flashes and menopause in retaliation for Vivica embarrassing her/Shawn in the boardroom. If so, Vivica is going to feel really stupid..

        Nah. Shawn is afraid of her own shadow. I thought the menopause foreshadowing was great editing though. While I hate that the younger girls and Kenya think there is something funny about it, their day will come. I’m quite sure it was Kenya. It just seems like something she would do. UNLESS Brandi does it and blames Kenya. We shall see.

    Brandi is a professional victim. She knows how to make people feel sorry for her and it works until they figure out that SHE is the one who has caused all the trouble.

    I don’t think Brandi has been sober for one single moment of this show.

    le sigh. I don’t think Brandi has looked or acted drunk or under influence at all. We aren’t seeing all of the behind-the-scenes so there must be something going on. Why else would Trump continually bring it up? Also, he seemed like he wanted Brandi in the Boardroom, but I don’t think for a second he was going to fire her. He wanted Kenya and Brandi to go at it like cats. #gratification

    Poor Jamie couldn’t make a decision at all. I’ve had a boss like that, it’s really annoying. When I heard her charity I was really disappointed. Not that I don’t believe in global warming but when you have a chance to help people in need, it seems more deserving. The second she said her charity, I wanted her to go home.

    Johnny Damon is an idiot and a pig. His wife is a gold digging whore who dated him while he was married. He wrote a book talking about banging a nurse while his first wife was in labor. His first wife never spoke out about him until “he” wrote his book and she was a class act. Her reason for not talking about the marriage “shame the parent, and you shame the child”. I can’t wait for Johnny to run through his money and his second wife is blowing truckers for a burger and fries. I wish Brandi had known that he makes Eddie look like Ward Cleaver, that would have been a red flag.
