The two local “Celebrity Apprentice” contestants made Atlanta proud during Sunday night’s episode. As opposing project managers, both NeNe Leakes (for the women’s team ASAP) and Lil Jon (for the men’s team Backbone) created well-liked commercials for telecommunications company ACN.
Unfortunately, one team had to lose and it was NeNe’s. But NeNe was not on the chopping block. Instead, it was contentious, wearily stubborn 70-year-old Dionne Warwick.
While the concept of the show is really nothing more than “The Surreal Life” dressed up with business tasks, it does reveal interesting aspects of celebrities we wouldn’t otherwise see. Sadly for Warwick, a beloved R&B legend, we saw a cranky, unpleasant woman who didn’t always pull her weight on tasks.
During this task, Warwick’s downfall was deciding to cut out early on NeNe’s team while they were editing the commercial. In the boardroom, when she heard that Hope Dworaczyk and NeNe thought she was the weakest player, she threw up her hands and said no mas. Trump hates that type of behavior and she was out.
Even worse, after hugging NeNe goodbye outside the boardroom, she called NeNe a “coward, baby,” for not telling the truth. But NeNe was telling the truth. Dionne told her straight out, “I’m going!” and didn’t ask to leave, like she portrayed it.
In the post-elimination cab ride, Warwick showed her passive-aggressive nature by saying: “Sometimes ladies have a habit of not quite being straight up. I just don’t like craziness — unless I’m the crazy one!”
Otherwise, we saw the assertive, positive sides of NeNe we grew to love on “Real Housewives of Atlanta,” not her angry side. She was focused, on task and showed leadership skills as project manager. She delegated well and realized quickly that only Marlee Matlin and Star Jones on her team were really useful in terms of the real work. LaToya Jackson was left with time management while Hope and Dionne handled props.
During the boardroom, Matlin was deeply impressed by NeNe as a video director: “You’re one of the best directors I’ve ever worked with. She listens. She’s very approachable, very accommodating. She was a star!”
Trump joked, “You’re going to ruin your image!”
ACN wanted the two teams to create 30-second televised ads for its video phone. The teams took entirely different approaches. With the ACN executives emphasizing emotion over functionality, NeNe’s team decided to go the emotional route. They had a daughter in France kibitzing with her parents in the United States via video phone. Her mom happens to be a deaf, Academy Award-winning Marlee Matlin signing her way through a conversation. It worked.
But the men, led by Lil Jon, opted for humor. The set up is a son announcing to his parents that he is getting married but the kicker is his fiance is a dude, a dude that looks like Jose Canseco. Canseco already wore a dress during the second challenge. Now he added eye liner and had his hair primped up to play “Pedro.” It was actually funny and management thought it could go viral.
Lil Jon, ever the MC, was a lively host, hyping up the ACN crowd. He also got praise from Richard Hatch, of all people, as a leader.”He was efficient. He was effective. The man manages beautifully. He tasks people. He listens to people. He organizes in a way that is commendable.”
Lil Jon defended his choice of commercial in the face of Trump’s contention they were being too risque. “I’ve been in business for many years,” he explained. “The people who succeed are those who take chances. ACN has all the same kinds of commercials. They came to us for something different. Their slogan is life without boundaries. That means thinking outside the box. If they don’t like this commercial, they need to change their slogan. I put all on black in Vegas. Sometimes, you gotta take chances!”
In the end, Lil Jon was right: 53 percent of the 450 ACN employees preferred the men’s commercial over the women’s safer route.
And Lil Jon won $40,000 for his charity: Decatur’s United Methodist Children’s Home, a safe haven for abused children and youth.
Other notable moments:
- The women at the start of the show were still reeling from the previous task, which cost them Niki Taylor. “We lost against Gary Busey,” NeNe exclaimed. “How did that happen?” Mark McGrath felt his team won despite Busey.
- The men kept bickering but shut up when the women came back.
- Hope has shown no signs of life after four challenges. Her personality (or lack thereof) has been utterly overshadowed. She will be gone soon enough.
- LaToya is being under-estimated, true that. She is a bit too quiet and low-key for this show but she showed a little fight when NeNe started carping on her.
- Busey continued to irritate Lil Jon and Meat Loaf with his inability to focus at times.
- Canseco is just plain strange, his facial tics notwithstanding. During the meeting with ACN executives, he asked whether they could do a commercial where someone communicates on the video phone to… aliens. And he seemed serious.
- Next week: Meat Loaf blows up against Busey!

I’m happy that Little John won, because people were judging him especially Gary, Gary dosne’t like Little J really review last weeks’ tape. Gary ignored him last week and tried to throw him under the bus with his criticium but Jose is really the weakess link and not one of his team mates came to his defense…which he didn’t need.

I am a woman and I am a testament to the fact that Dionne was correct in saying that women are not always straight up with each other. They say they want one thing, then they change and say they want something else. Yes, Ne-Ne showed some cowardice tendencies, and Dionne called her out on it. But, I know enough to know that this is the way that the producers of this show want it to go. Only an imbecile wouldn’t know that much of this program is scripted, just for your listening and visual displeasure–just to get you to voice your opinions and watch it again the next week.

@Winner, I disagree. John Rich is always worried about his conservative base, and what they will think. IMO, it looks like he underestimates them. They would probably find it funny, laugh, and say something like “That’s sick”, and keep it moving.
He needs to realize that just because you like country music does not mean that you are pigeonholed.

Seeing how there were only 2 white women left on the show, and only one was of any relevance (Marlee)–who was Trump supposed to interview on the womens’ side? Stop being so racist yourself, then attaching it to someone else. To the best of my knowledge, not a single one of the people on the show has exhibited, or made any reference to anyone’s race, but leave it to a lowly local Southern blog, to insert foot in mouth and lower the intelligence level of everyone. And for those who want to see Ne-Ne and Star leave next–get real. There is NOTHING about Hope worth watching, and La Toya is sweet, but that’s the extent of that.

Angie…let me guess, you’re white. PLEASE…. Lisa is a two faced backstabber who can not keep her fake lips closed. EVERY chance she got she would run her mouth about a fellow co-worker, even AFTER Star confronted her on it. SO UNPROFESSIONAL! Even AFTER the show she continued with her childish High School antics until Star Jones called her to the mat with Lawyers. Lisa needed to go. Dion needed to go….Hope needs to be next only because she’s such a clueless follower. LaToya is definetly being under estimated. Marlee does come on too hyper and strong sometimes, as well as Star. May the Best Woman Win!!

It appears Dionne didn’t do any eye rolling and hip swaying with any of the black gals. Star is more educated and a team player and I suppose that excuses Dionne. She at least follows through when given a task. When given a chance she will extend her claws. Get real, the lowly local Southern blog is going no where. We are here to stay, and there is nothing you can do about it!

I’m sorry that Dionne is gone for only one reason. I wanted to watch her crash and burn as a project manager and be a royal bitch as she was failing. Almost everytime she was on camera she had food in her mouth and that didn’t shut her up. All respect that I had for her over the years has gone out the window. She’s mean, vindictive, and just a tad bit off her rocker!

go back and watch the first show and try and tell me there was not Black on White racism. The BOOK deal was hil-f..cking-lary-us. Dionne wanted HER name on the Book. That woman is what Whitney Houston is working hard to become real fast.The way Mrs. Matlin was attacked was very racist and anti-handicap.

Soooooo glad Dionne Warwick is gone. She made the comment that her body was telling her it needed sleep and since she was the “matriarch” she was going home. Pffft! Joan Rivers kept up with everyone 2 yrs ago and I believe she may have been a tad older. AND she won! DW should have went the first week the ladies lost.

Seems all of the comments so far agree with all of my thoughts in watching the series. NeNe and LaToya seem to be the only 2 blacks who don’t have a chip on their shoulder and are not always getting down on the white contestants. I always heard Black women could be *itches, but Star and Dionne prove it.

@KimZ; If wanting someone’s name on a book makes them racist, then I really don’t know how to respond to that. I’ve seen ALL the shows, and for the life of me, I don’t remember seeing Marlee being racially attacked by Dionne.Maybe, if you can be more specific, I could address it, but I do remember the handicapped remark. And what has this woman being related to Whitney Houston, have to do with anything? You see, unfounded comments like that, are what make others go off the deep end about imagined racists attacks. Just like some white people like to say, “not EVERY THING is about race”.

I didn’t say wanting her name on the book was racists. The Fact the thinks her Black azz is better than the rest of the TEAM and deserver more credit that is the funny part.
Get Tivo or Dish on Demand and watch it again for yourself and open your eyes.
When Dionne said that a character in the book couldn’t be deaf because the kids couldn’t understand that concept was plain STUPID. How do children learn about the DEAF? If they are not exposed to that Handicap. and it’s challenges? The Black women were very clickish and were very aggressive towards the white women. If you couldn’t see that, then your Handicap is BLINDNESS.
Yes, any woman CAN be a Bi.ch, but a Lady CHOOSES not to be a BI.CH. Can you comprehend that concept? NeNe is Famous only for being a Bi.ch. The Omarosa Chick that TRUMP made Famous was because she CHOSE to be a Bi.ch too. I can promise you that you will be very hard pressed to find a single soul that will say my mother was EVER a Bi.ch to them. That is in her business or personal life.

Susan…..SO TRUE…Dionne DID make comments to the camera about being the matriarch AND said SEVERAL rimes “this body just needs to lye down”!!! YET, when Donald Trump asked if it had anything to do with stamina…Dionne chirps up and says “I’ll answer that, no it did not, like I said I would have stayed if there was anything for me to do”..totally contradicting what she said to the camera and what she said in the boardroom.

I cannot believe the racism on this page—OMG. You white people really hate blacks. WTH? Dionne was not racist. I view her as someone older and set in her ways. Not necessarily a good thing in this type of COMPETITION. I will not defend Star or Nene, but they did the damn thing, They produced a good commercial. Period. But viral means sensational. The company wanted more than a tear jerker…they wanted an internet sensation. Lil John came through. I like the ladies commercials, but it wasnt viral.
And the black on white racism thing some of yall are referring to is nothing short of bizaar, I mean what show are you watching?! Last week Dionne asked Nickie where was Hope,, who was not doing whatwhat was assigned to do. Nicky said something like I dont like how you are speaking to me. Personnaly I didnt think she liked that a black woman confronted her for the foolishness that was gooing on with her team mate, under her assignment. So please…GTFOH with the racism crap. You ppl hate black folks, but then you cover your true selves up with blaming yor bad thoughts on others. Get some help. You scary mothereffers!

Last week Dionne called Nikki” that white girl” and she called her a hussy. She wan’t being funny, Why was that not some what racist? If one of the white ladies had said that it would have been considered racist. Trust me I am not a racist. I am a white gay man that believes in equal rights for all. We have black history month, a black gay pride, and even website black people meet. It goes on and on. Yet, if we had white people meet website, people would be up in arms about it. There can not be a double standard. What is ok for one should be ok for all.
Sorry for getting off subject, but I hate double standards from anyone.
Btw, I thought Nene was great. It was nice to see that side of her again. On RHOA, she tends to not show that anymore. They were wrong though for getting rid of Lisa. I am glad that old hag Dionne is gone. I haven’t liked her for years. Talking about racism and Dionne, in the mid 80’s she said that George Michael should not have won an r & b award because he was not BLACK. Now tell me she is not a racist.

APP#2 The Children’s BOOK
STAR forced and BULLIED Lisa into the Project Manager. Dionne said she would be great and NeNe new the black ladies were getting Lisa out because she didn’t AGREE with STAR. 3 black ladies stabbing the White lady in the guts to her face. But no RACISM here. La Toya is like Michael. She wants to be nice and knows she wants to live in the White world. La Toya & Hope are hiding.
A.S.A.P
the womans team name should stand for
Africans Stabbing Anglos Passionately
Dionne is the azz because she call Mrs Matlin’s input is CRAZY. 4-5 yr old kids can’t handle THAT kind of Diversity. When it is broached to have a DEAF animal Dionne says that is SAD. Dionne said kids will feel SORRY for the Handicap animal that can’t hear. WOW. Mrs Matlin call Dionne IGNORANT because of her lack of understanding of a MINORITY (the Deaf) boy who was the racists? STAR starts calling out LISA and talking down to her. BLACK POWER and White Guilt in action. JUST be YOURSELF but not if you are DEAF. We want an animal from AFRICA-the LION KING of the BEAST- but he/she can’t have a HANDICAP. The LION is the PROUD representation of AFRICA. Why did the Black ladies pick an animal found on only 1 continent (AFRICA)? Why not a MUTT DOG that can be found all over the world and full of diversity?
Why not a Dinosaur?
Nikki said 4-5 don’t know SHY. Dionne says a child can live with SHY but not DEAF? Dionne hated all the white ladies input because SHE was CREATING (her Concept) the STORY.
Every time LISA did something Dionne shut her down and called her out. When Trump Jr. asked who’s concept. He couldn’t finish the question before DIONNE said MINE IT IS ALL MINE. Children understanding Who they are Why they are, but the DEAF handicap was CRUSHED by DIONNE. Not Racist but not ACCEPTING of Diversity. STAR wrote the BOOK and was in-charge but was HIDING behind being the PL and hanging LISA out to dry. The Black Bit.hes were all over the WHITE leader. BLACK POWER and White Quilt. Reverse racism. STAR wanted to be on the COVER as Writer and DIONNE was the Concept creator. The Whole time they tried to HANG Lisa out to dry but tried to take all the credit. Dionne wanted only the BLACK LADIES to get NAMED CREDIT.

Mark It Right, what delusional world are you living? You can turn on every channel, but BET and see nothing but white people. e-harmony commercials are always a happy white couple that met on the site. Church is still the most segregated activity in the world. As for black gay pride, that is because of the black gay people feeling marginalized at the white pride events. How do you keep black people out of clubs and bars in Atlanta? Put in a dress code that doesn’t allow jeans or Timberlands.
And I distinctly remember when V-103 and Q100 teamed up to have a joint party, and none of the white fans of Q!00 showed up. Most of their reasons were that “black people are violent, and they may get shot.”

It amazes me that everytime you have 1 or more black person(s) in the mix, “race” is somehow thrown in there. Why can’t black people be judged as individuals like white people and other races. Did anyone watch the regular Apprentice last season when it was men against women? The same issues that you see this season, happened last season. Not to say women can’t get along, but there was only 1 black woman on that show (and she made it to the final four). There is no need to marginalize this into a black vs white thing. Or even a men vs women thing. The men have several issues on their team as well. Remember the first challenge when Richard bullied David Cassidy? Jose Conseco and his laziness? Next week’s episode with Meatball yelling at Gary? Gary Busey and his craziness? Speaking of Gary, if a woman came on set with only a robe and exposed her breasts? Would it be funny? Or a black woman? Could you imagine the comments?
I have not heard one person say look at these “white men”. If it was 3 black men, watch the negative comments go ‘viral’. And who is this Hope? She hasn’t done much of anything this entire season. Are the black women bullying her to stay quiet?
really?

@KimZ. Star didn’t force Lisa into PM; If Lisa didn’t want to do it, she should have said so. Lisa was on the show just for more exposure, she didn’t know what she was doing as PM. The only pleasant thing Trump could say about Lisa was her lips looked better than before. what the hell? Nicki Taylor, I liked her, but they ultimately lost the task because of the outside presentation in which she was in charge of. Nicki and Hope dropped the ball on that and graphics. NeNe, Dionne, Star, Marlee and LaToya got great reviews on the insde RV’s (which Nicki put them in charge of).

We always think that most serial killers are white, while that’s true, over the course of time there have been a few that weren’t.
Henry Louis Wallace: He restricted himself to victims of his own race, like most typical serial killers. One way he was different though was that while most serial killers pick random targets, he picked people he knew. Between September of 1992 and March of 1994, Wallace raped and strangled nine young black women in Charolette, North Carolina. They were all people he knew. One was his girlfriends roommate, others were friends with his sister. His first six murders happened over a 20 month span but his last three were within 72 hours. He was arrested in January on 1994 and confessed to all nine killings. He was sentenced to death.
Carlton Gary: He killed outside his race. His combination of intelligence, charm and cunningness made him extremely dangerous. He was arrested in May of 1970 as a suspect in a rape-murder of an 85 year old woman from New York. He managed to shift the blame to someone who knew. After escaping prision, where he was being held on lesser charges, Gary made is back to his hometown of Columbus, Georgia. Between September 1977 and April 1978, the city was hit by a number of murders. The victims were seven white women, the oldest victim was just shy of 90 years old. He was later arrested for armed robbery and sentenced to 20 years in jail but after just four years he escaped. In 1984 he was charged with the murders and sent to die in the electric chair.
Celeophus Prince Jr: He too preyed on victims outside his own race. Between January and September of 1990, he murdered six women in San Diego. He stabbed one of his victims over 50 times and left bloody circles around his victims breasts. This would become his signature. Prince even killed a mother and daughter and bragged about it to a friend. He would even wear the woman’s wedding ring around his neck on a chain. He was called the “Clairemont Killer” during his nine month killing spree. He was arrested in September of 1991 and convicted of six counts of 1st degree murder, twenty counts of burglury and one count of rape. He was sentenced to death and is being held at San Quentin.

How about this BLACK SERIAL KILLER miss PARROT? LEE MALVO remember him?
The Washington sniper attacks took place during three weeks in October 2002 in Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia. Ten people were killed and three others critically injured in various locations throughout the Washington Metropolitan Area and along Interstate 95 in Virginia. It was widely speculated that a single sniper was using the Capital Beltway for travel, possibly in a white van or truck. It was later learned that the rampage was perpetrated by one man, John Allen Muhammad, and one minor, Lee Boyd Malvo, driving a blue 1990 Chevrolet Caprice sedan, and had apparently begun the month before with murders and robbery in Louisiana and Alabama, which had resulted in three deaths.[1]
I thought you didn’t PARROT the stuff you hear. I thought you CHECKED your FACTS and decided the TRUTH for yourself. Well I hope I HELPED you to become more ENLIGHTENED on the TRUTH. PARROT.

@lyla singfield First of all, you missed the whole point! I never said or implied that there weren’t more things that are aimed toward white people. (There are more white people in the U.S.) You apparently can’t read and process things correctly. The point I was making is that if blacks (or other ethnic groups) can specifically have things called or named based on their color then all ethnic groups including whites should be allowed as well to do it with out being called a racist. That or no one should be able to do it. You could never have something specifically called White People Meet, White Entertainment TV, or white gay pride. Btw, I have seen blacks & Asians in E-Harmony commercials. So try again. I am not sure how you know about Gay Pride, but I have been at many and there are lots of blacks involved in the parade and the festivities. There are black entertainment acts, black drag queens, black hosts that all entertain at the event. So try again. Although, I don’t go out that much to bars anymore, every bar I have EVER been in has had black people there. Most all the people there were wearing jeans. Timberlands I have no idea. If a club has a dress code you either adhere to it or don’t go. They don’t let white people in not dressed appropriately either.
As far as the Q100/V103 party, I don’t know anything about it, and it has nothing to do with the point I was making. So the only delusion is on your part.

really?
Blacks use the WE ARE ALWAYS VICTIMS attitude because our family was forced to be here as SLAVES.
Blacks are using White Guilt and Fear of being called a Racist to force whites in a corner.
The biggest laugh I get is that OBAMA cam from a WHITE WOMB and was raised by WHITE Grandparents. Obama grew-up more white than most can imagine, but he still thinks he is BLACK. He is just like the Suburban Black Rappers selling BS and the dumb Black and white kids eat it up. You know those are the FOOLS that have to work to fill the Social Security System with money to take care of us when we are old.

Dionne is someone I admired until watching her on The Apprentice. I could hardly wait to see her fired. What an attitude, it’s called “It’s all about me”. How sad I was to find that I had lost the DVR of the show and had to learn about the results on the computer. I hope when Dionne watches the show she will feel embarassment and regrets on how she acted. I’m 69 and I hope she doesn’t use old age as an excuse.

They were so mean to Deonne, if they didn’t want somone that old, they should have said so to begin with, typical Americans, no respect for their elders

Dionne, could have done more. Age cannot be used anymore as the factor. She was invited to the show. If she felt she was not up to it, she should have politely told them she could not accept at this time. I had the utmost respect for her and her accomplishments, but the Apprentice brought out her dark side that I did not like. This exposure has done great harm to her character as a person and a performer.

How typical, KimZ, that you have to go to Africa as a means. If that is the case, let’s look at the Nazis. Those, white, blond, blue-eyed people were the worst serial killers. If you didn’t make that description, you were out. And I will get the list of white people that have done more than their share of killing together.
And Mark It right, I don’t care if white people want something that they consider their own. And the way to get around that is to cleverly market it towards white people. As for gay pride, I have been many times and the amount of black people there was minuscule. And I have seen many white people at Black Pride, too. So, you need to try again. But the point that you are missing is that white people do participate in the black events. They don’t have a problem with that, and most black people don’t care if white people are there. Hence, KimZ’s point about the white people that spread the “love”.

Lee Malvo was the black serial killer that I was referring to. And you continue parroting the saem tired lines about being a white male victim. You spend more of your time doing doing something to uplift the poor white people in this state (btw, kudos to Texas State for starting a scholarship for poor white people) instead of pointing out what black people are doing and being the typical, angry white male that thinks that blacks are taking from white people.
